Mullā Ṣadrā on the Effective Prayer and God’s Mutability and Passibility
This article tries to bring Mullā Ṣadrā into a current debate in the philosophy of religion regarding effective petitionary prayer. Here the question relates to the efficacy of petitionary prayer and the two divine attributes of immutability and impassibility. On the one hand, according to some religious texts and also the common sense of supplicants, one is inclined to think that petitionary prayer is efficient in the sense that it can influence…
A Philosophical Explanation for the Islamization of Philosophy
This paper evaluates the potentials of Mullā Şadrā’s philosophy to explain the possibility of the Islamization of philosophy. This contributes to a more general, yet controversial, project in post-revolutionary Iran, namely the Islamization of knowledge, especially in the humanities. If there would be a mechanism through which Islamization of philosophy – as a historical example and as a field of knowledge that provides theoretical grounds of oth…
Considering Inheritance as One of the Consequences of the Soul-Body Relationship in Aquinas, Avicenna, and Mulla Ṣadra
Inheritance is one of the most important issues that has been discussed empirically in genetics since the late nineteenth century. One proper philosophical context of such issue can be traced back in the body-soul relationship debate. This paper goes through the position of Aquinas, Avicenna, and Mulla Sadra, as three different Aristotelian philosophers, to examine how their thought in the issue of soul-body relationship can open a window to the …

The cosmological location and identity of the Paradise in which Adam and Eve dwelled and from which, we are told in Q. 7:22 and 24, they were sent down to earth after giving in to Satan’s temptation and approaching the forbidden tree, has long been a controversial issue among exegetes and theologians. Ṣadr al-Dīn Muḥammad b. Ibrāhīm b. Yaḥyā Qawāmī Shīrāzī Mullā Ṣadrā (d. 1050/1640), a flag-bearer for the philosophical and mystical exegesis of th…
Mullā Ṣadrā’s Political Legacy
Apart from its philosophical attractions, the religio-political potentials in the transcendent philosophy of Mullā Ṣadrā Shīrāzī (d. 1050/1641) have helped to its dominance in the seminary and university in contemporary Iran. It seems that one of the reasons for the state’s support for al-Ḥikmah al-mutaʿāliyah in Iran after the Islamic revolution is the potentials existing in this philosophy to justify the establishment of a religious government …
