Mulla-Sadra writes in al-shavahed al-robubieh, after negating the gradation in quiddity that he contrasted with this idea in al-Asfar. In spite of the fact that he has refused to accept the gradation in quiddity in some of his works, he has given theories such as the Platonic idea and the eternal essences that some of the necessary acceptance of them has been considered in gradation in quiddity. This article explains and justifies this incoherency by identifying Mulla Sadra's different views on the gradation in quiddity. of the discussion and discussing the issues that they are required to accept in gradation in quiddity. To this end, various justifications have been raised and criticized about this apparent disagreement with Mulla Sadra. These views include: gradation in quiddity in defense of the iluminationists, changing his view in gradation in quiddity, the gradation in quiddity means gradation in essence, gradation in graduated concepts, gradation in quiddity persons, gradation in quiddity in subordinate with existence.

This study aims to examine the applicability of Mulla Sadra’s theory of Substantial Motion in translation. To begin with, it starts with the concept of motion as the move from a state of potency into act and investigates time and motion in the tripartite categories of text, translator, and the process of translation. With a view to the theory of Substantial Motion, this study offers a definition for the source text which involves the concepts of ‘essence’, ‘substance’, and ‘motion’, by which it explores the semantics of the source text and its ontological levels and investigates the very concepts of polysemy, homonymy, and plurality of meanings and multiplicity of translations.
In pursuit of meaning and gradation of the substance of the source text, it also explores the intellectual and cognitive motion in the mind of the translator, and borrowing Sadra’s methodology finds translation as a permanent process of evolution in which every translation is in a state of flux awaiting retranslation.

Abstract
Self-existent in its essence has multiple inherent and real qualities. On the other hand, self-existent has the most simple and pure essentiality. The summation of the extreme simplicity and the diversity of God’s qualities is done based on the Mulla Sadra’s perspective on the essence of ...

Self-existent in its essence has multiple inherent and real qualities. On the other hand, self-existent has the most simple and pure essentiality. The summation of the extreme simplicity and the diversity of God’s qualities is done based on the Mulla Sadra’s perspective on the essence of simplicity, relying on the rule of simplicity of essence in its gradation. The particular point of view offered by Mulla Sadra about the traits leads to attributing some more special characteristics to the divine existent. The purpose of the current study is to explain the characteristics offered by Mulla Sadra, concentrating on the Sadraian rule of the simplicity of essence and its gradation

The problem of gradation is undoubtedly one of the fundamental issues in philosophy. We can perhaps consider this problem as a criterion to distinguish Sadrian philosophers from others. So that we can say that pre Sadrian philosophers have mostly rejected it but all Sadrians have more or less accepted the idea.
Among pre Sadrians, there are some philosophers who have no explicit position on the issue, such as Mirfenderesky. The present article attempt to explain the peculiar position of the two philosophers on the problem of gradation through comparing their philosophies
