Abstract
The concept of binary converses is a modern philosophical one. Arabs knew it earlier as oppositeness. They knew it as a literal converseness and a converseness in meaning. The binary converses are items that each one eliminates the presence of the other like black and white, darkness and daylight. Daylight eliminates darkness. So the relationship between the binaries is that of contradiction and converseness. The contrast the presence of binaries creates can be felt clearly and perfectly. This is applicable to all the thoughts and perceptions and mental visualizations like the feelings of delight and pain, fatigue and repose.
