1 - A Review of the Nature of Modes and their Signification of the Composition of the Subject of the Modal (Focusing on Mir Damad’s Views)
Mohammad Hadi Tavakkoli

The importance of modes in philosophy is to the extent that some have considered them as the fundamental bases of philosophy. One of the philosophical issues connected with the discussion of modes is the discussion of “composition”. Mode of any type signifies the existe More

The importance of modes in philosophy is to the extent that some have considered them as the fundamental bases of philosophy. One of the philosophical issues connected with the discussion of modes is the discussion of “composition”. Mode of any type signifies the existence of some kind of plurality. This is because the criterion for being qualified by a mode is not exactly the same as the criterion for being qualified by another one. Therefore, the modes abstracted from a single subject (whether having real or mentally-posited unity) indicate the existence of a kind of multiplicity in the subject itself (in the conditional mode) or in the affairs outside the subject (in the causative mode). Being compound is one of the kinds of multiplicity in subject. In this paper, the author intends to provide a review of the problem of modes and the discussions prior and posterior to them.

2 - Views of Sayyid ‘Alī Khān Madanī and Mullā Ṣadrā on Divine Anthropomorphic Attributes Based on Ends
Narges Taheri Hasan Naghizadeh Mortaza Irvani Najafi

In spite of the long stay of Sayyid ‘Alī Khān Ṣadr al-Dīn Madanī Shīrāzī (1052-10120 AH) in India and his distance from Shiraz and Isfahan, his kalāmī principles underlying the explanation of God’s anthropomorphic attributes in Rīyāḍ al-sālikīn clearly demonstrate Mullā More

In spite of the long stay of Sayyid ‘Alī Khān Ṣadr al-Dīn Madanī Shīrāzī (1052-10120 AH) in India and his distance from Shiraz and Isfahan, his kalāmī principles underlying the explanation of God’s anthropomorphic attributes in Rīyāḍ al-sālikīn clearly demonstrate Mullā Ṣadrā’s influence. Nevertheless, despite his agreement with the principles of the Transcendent Philosophy, his method of interpreting divine attributes does not fully conform to the principles of Sadrian philosophy. While clarifying the attribution of a number of anthropomorphic features to God, he adopts an ends-oriented method in order to purify Him from human characteristics. This is because the reasons for the manifestation of some attributes such as mercy and wrath, which are rooted in inner excitement, compassion, and sorrow, are not true about God. In fact, they can only be used for Him based on ends and outcomes. Although he speaks of demonstrating attributes for God without assimilation, this strategy is not consistent with the principles of the Transcendent Philosophy, particularly with gradation of being and distinction of existential levels of God’s attributes from those of human beings as explicitly stated by Mullā Ṣadrā and his fundamental theories.

3 - The Relationship of Poetry with Consideration and Truth Based on ‘Allāmah Ṭabāṭabā’ī’s Theory of Mentally-Posited Things

In ‘Allāmah Ṭabāṭabā’ī’s view, poetry and mentally-posited perceptions have such a close relationship with each other that he describes such perceptions through using poetic similes, allegories, and metaphors in his book of The Principles of Philosophy and the Method of Realism. This study explores the relationship between poetry and mentally-posited perceptions through referring to those works of ‘Allāmah Ṭabāṭabā’ī in which he discusses the theory of mentally-posited things. The significance of this relationship lies in the fact that, by investigating the relationship between these two variables in different philosophical, gnostic, and interpretive works of ‘Allāmah, one can inquire about the relationship of poetry and positedness with fact-itself truth. The findings of this study indicate that mentally-posited things are the same as Man’s poetic view of the world or an eye with which Man can see everything. This poetic world, while being irrational and non-inferential, can speak of truth through allusions. Accordingly, it can be claimed that the theory of mentally-posited perceptions in Islamic philosophy has opened a new window to attaining the knowledge of truth. Manuscript profile
