In this study the concept of "nature" was analysed etymologically and the meaning given to this concept by various Peripatetic Muslim Philosophers was discussed in a holistic way. The result of our analysis showed that the meaning of "nature" does not correspond exactly to the word of "doğa" in Turkish. In addition, the metaphysical problems associated with the concept of "nature" were argued. The aim of the study was to contribute to a beter understanding of the problems concerning the concept of "nature" in classical Islamic philosophy
