During the "Golden Age" of Islam many disciplines of Knowledge were combines under primarily the Abbasid funding of Universities or Learning institutions. The Greek, Persian, Babylonian, Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Chinese and Indian knowledge were fused into a great industry of learning and libraries.
Avicenna (Ibn Sina) was known as the "Second Teacher" after the first Greek. This was a renowned title as the complexities of Greek philosophy were dissected and exegesis performed upon them, so other intellectuals (such as Europeans) could understand them/
What is important to note is the Superiority of Islam. Avicenna failed in the Islamic domain in bringing this philosophy into mainstream Islamic rhetoric. Ghazali defeated him and proved that the Greeks had an incompatible and unworthy philosophy for any place within the Islamic divine scriptures.
