The Necessary Being's Knowledge According To Mulla Sadra
Abstract
Doctrine of the Necessary Being's knowledge interjected by the Sadrean Transcendent Theosophy is an advanced version of the Illuminationist and Peripatetic doctrines. From among the various doctrines, a doctrine has springed out, in which God is regarded as knowing His Essence and other than His Essence; this doctrine affirms the detailed knowledge of other than Essence both before and simultaneous with the creation. And all three knowledges are in the mode of knowledge by presence and not acquired one.
