The era in which Abū Na'r al-Fārābī emerged as a canonical scientist significantly contributed to his education and shaped his scientific worldview. The formation of al-Farabi's spiritual worldview and his ideas is directly associated with embracing the ancient philosophical tradition, more precisely, Aristotle's philosophy and logic. The focus of the article is al-Farabi's analysis of Aristotle's principles in the study of logic and their further development. Al-Farabi's worldwide reputation as the Second Teacher after Aristotle, the First Teacher, in the East is directly rooted in his mastery and advancement of the science of logic. In simple terms, the philosopher states that logic leads a person to a straight path to being capable of radically discerning between good and bad, truth and lies, and honesty and deceit. This, in turn, steers humanity away from succumbing to mistakes or getting into trouble. Al-Farabi constructs a comprehensive scientific analysis of the socio-cultural foundations of Aristotle's doctrine of logic and the ability to adapt it in his unique way to society. The study of the theoretical basis of al-Farabi's teachings on logic and its significance involves employing hermeneutic, comparative, and stylistic methods in the research of the texts.
