This study aims to reveal how Al-Farabi's life background influenced his thinking, especially in the philosophical concepts of emanation, divinity, prophecy, soul, and reason. Using a qualitative approach based on literature analysis, this study explores Al-Farabi's intellectual contribution in bridging classical Greek thought with Islamic traditions.

This article also explores the relevance of Al-Farabi's thoughts in modern contexts, such as dialogue between religion and science, education, and the development of an ideal society. Al-Farabi's thinking remains a relevant intellectual heritage in responding to contemporary global and ethical challenges.Keywords: Al-Farabi, Islamic philosophy, emanation, divinity, reason, prophethood, contemporary relevance]]>
