Abū l-Walīd Muhammad ibn Ahmad Ibn Ruschd (arabisch أبو الوليد محمد ابن أحمد ابن رشد, DMG Abū l-Walīd Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad Ibn Rušd), kurz Ibn Ruschd, latinisiert Averroes – auch Averroës oder Averrhoës – (geboren am 14. April 1126 in Córdoba, arabisch Qurtuba; gestorben am 10. Dezember 1198 in Marrakesch, arabisch Murrākuš), war ein andalusischer Philosoph, muslimischer Gelehrter, Jurist, Arzt und arabischsprachiger Schriftsteller. Er war Hofarzt der berberischen Dynastie der Almohaden von Marokko. Averroes verfasste eine medizinische Enzyklopädie und fast zu jedem Werk von Aristoteles einen Kommentar. In der christlichen Scholastik des Mittelalters, auf die er großen Einfluss ausübte, wurde er deshalb als „der Kommentator“ bezeichnet (italienisch il commentator, geprägt von Dante), so wie Aristoteles gelegentlich nur „der Philosoph“ genannt wurde. Averroes war derart bedeutend, dass Raffael eine Darstellung des Averroes in sein Fresko Die Schule von Athen aufnahm. Averroes sah in der Logik die einzige Möglichkeit des Menschen, glücklich zu werden. Die aristotelische Logik lieferte für ihn die Möglichkeit, aus den Daten der Sinne zur Erkenntnis der Wahrheit zu kommen. Die Logik war für ihn das Gesetz des Denkens und der Wahrheit.
