The second major figure in the history of Andalusian philosophy was Abu Bakr Ibn Tufayl (d. 1185), a close friend and associate of Averroes. His only extant work, Hayy Ibn Yaqzan, is a philosophical novel which embodies the substance of Islamic Neoplatonism, tempered by certain Sufi tendencies, which al-Ghazali had popularized in the East.
