Suhrawardi has repeated attempts to allegorize philosophical issues as well as intelligible happiness. In his allegorical treatises, some wayfarer has journeys to the heaven spheres and the ten Separate Intellects, pursuing intelligible happiness. Suhrawardi as the founder of the School of Illumination provided an original Platonic criticism of the dominant Avicennian Peripateticism of the time. However, Suhrawardi's allegorical issues are deemed Avicennian all the way down the line. This fact requires us to point out his other face: Avicennian Suhrawardi.
