Falsafa Ashnai at Hastoneest Ibn al Arabi... by hast-o-neest
Sadr al-Din Muhammad al-Shirazi (1571-1640) - Mulla Sadra - is
one of the most important figures of post-Ibn Sina Islamic philosophy, and of
the Safavid era, Iran. He went to Isfahan to complete his studies in
transmitted and intellectual sciences (al-‘ulum al-naqliyyah) with Baha' al-Din
Muhammad al-Amili (d. 1031/1622). In the field of intellectual sciences (al-‘ulum
al-‘aqliyyah), Sadra studied with Sayyid Baqir Muhammad Astarabadi, known as
Mir Damad (d. 1040/1631).
In his
personal life, Sadra lived the life of an ascetic, and died in Basra on the way
back from his seventh pilgrimage to Mecca on foot. In addition to producing
ground-breaking works in traditional philosophy, Sadra also trained a number of
notable students, among whom 'Abd al-Razzaq ibn al-Husayn al-Lahiji (d. 1662)
and Mulla Muhsin Fayd Kashani (d. 1680) are the most important.
Sadra composed works both in the field of
transmitted and intellectual sciences, and they span through the entire
spectrum of traditional philosophy from cosmology and psychology to metaphysics
and Qur’anic commentaries. His monumental 4-part, 9-volume al-Hikmat
al-muta'aliyah fi'l-asfar al-'aqliyyah al-arba'ah (“The Transcendent
Wisdom in the Four Intellectual Journeys”), known simply as Asfar, can be
read as a classical encyclopedia of philosophy minus the section on logic.

Nice post.
ReplyDeleteHi,Islamic philosophy is unique in the kind of points and issues with which it deals, the kind of issues it attempts to solve and the methods it utilizes as a part of order to solve them.Islamic philosophy concerned about such matters as the issue of unity and multiplicity,the relationship in the middle of God and the world, both of which had been subjects of heated controversies and discourses among the theologians for a long time.Thank you.
