Abstract
Similar to Meinong, Abu Hasim alGubbai(d. 933) held the view that some objects do not exist. This paper is a comparative study between Meinong's object theory and Abu Hasim's theory of nonexistent objects. Our comparative study is mostly done through three topics: the characterization principle, objecthood, and the ontological status of existence. Moreover, Abu Hasim's theory of nonexistent objects is based on his theory of states, according to which some things, namely states, which among other things include existence, are neither existent nor nonexistent. In this paper, we have also discussed two arguments on behalf of this claim and then we have examined them from a Meinongian perspective.
