The concept of the Virtuous City (al-Madīnah al-Fāḍilah) is central to Farabi’s philosophy and underpins his broader thought. Within this framework, Farabi offers a classification and valuation of the sciences, linking them philosophically and pedagogically to the construction and flourishing of the ideal society. He proposes two main criteria for evaluating sciences: their interrelation and alignment with subject, method, and utility, and their contribution to societal formation, particularly the development of civic sciences. Knowledge and virtue constitute the infrastructure and guiding principle of the Virtuous City, and the proper cultivation and application of both theoretical and practical sciences are essential for its realization. Farabi’s classification of sciences thus serves not merely as a theoretical schema but as a strategic framework for cultural and social development, ultimately aiming to establish a virtuous, flourishing, and ethically oriented society.
