What the following paper examines among these assumptions, is the first commitment or assumption. Neo-Thomism poses a serious challenge to the premises of incompatibilism within the frame of contemporary scientific theories and the only solution is to present alternative model. Nevertheless, the duality of nature and the supernatural as a common facet of  compatibilism and incompatibilism is a berrier to both models providing a plausible explanation. Although, neo-Thomism s argument about longitudinal God–nature relationship fails to meet all expectations and they are faced with the dilemma between Deism and the denial of non-divine agency. Breaking the ontological boundaries between nature and the supernatural, there seem to be a possible solution to the dilemma. It seems monistic approach of Sadra developed two systems of unity “Tashkiky” and “Shakhsi” can be a solution to this problem. Thus, this essay examines Sadra argument to address the problem arised by “compatibilism” approach. MethodThis article is written in a descriptive-analytical method based on Mulla Sadra's principles.Results and DiscussionIn what follows, to address the issue by relying on Sadra s argument, firstly, double causality, causal closure and the difficulty of explanation of the supernatural effect on nature which makes difficult to explain “special divine action” in the frame of “compatibilism” approach, will be analysed. Sadra theory and Thomistic view have tried to solve the problem through rejecting causal duality, that is, they deny the adequacy of physical causes. The possibility of the supernatural effect on nature by excluding the ontological aspects between them is one of the significant components provided by this paper. Given the key role of the concept of “existence” and “essence” in Sadra and Thomistic view in explanation of the supernatural and nature, by appealing to different versions of Sadra s argument about “Asalat al-wujud” and Thomistic view, analysis of the relationships between these two concepts has been done. Finally, it is argued that the dualistic approach of Thomistic view and one of the version of “Asalat al-wujud” which is the identity of “existence” and “essence” fail to prove the possibility of the effect of the supernatural on nature. However, there are two other versions of “Asala al-wujud” can provide the solution to this problem.ConclusionWhat is suggested in this paper is only to show the power of Sadra s theory in breaking of the ontological boundaries between nature and Supernatural. Even two systems of “tashkiky unity” and “shakhsi unity” support this possibility. To solve the problem of “special divine action” through the breaking of the ontological aspects requires to be committed to components such as, the adequacy of the natural sciences, the laws of nature and noninterventionism commitment.}, keywords = {Special Divine Action,primacy of existence (Asalat al-wujud),tashkiki unity,Shakhsi unity,Mulla Sadra}, title_fa = {نگرش وحدت‌انگارانه صدرایی؛ تفسیری دیگر از سازگاری میان فعل خداوند و طبیعت}, abstract_fa = {با کمی چشم‌پوشی از جزئیات، می‌توان گفت که پیشنهادهای معاصر در زمینه‌ی تبیین فعل خاص الهی، با سه تعهد متافیزیکی، یعنی "ناسازگاری فعل الهی و فعل طبیعت"، "نامداخله‌گری خداوند" و نیز "تجویزی بودن قوانین طبیعت"، شکل گرفته‌اند. نوشته‌ی پیش رو، معطوف به نخستین مورد از میان این سه تعهد است. در این مقاله با فرض سازگاری فعل الهی و فعل طبیعت، دو هدف پیگیری شده است: ابتدا تلاش شده است تا نشان داده شود، چگونه رویکرد دو‌گانه‌انگارانه به وجود و ماهیت و به تبع آن طبیعت و فراطبیعت، مدافعان آن را در محذور برای تبیین فاعلیت خاص خداوند قرار می‌دهد. سپس به ارزیابی نگرش وحدت‌انگارانه صدرایی در حل این مساله و رفع این مانع، پرداخته‌ شده است. در نهایت ادعا شده است از دو تقریر مشهور از اصالت وجود در نظام وحدت تشکیکی، یکی بر از میان بردن تمایز هستی‌شناسانه میان طبیعت و فراطبیعت ناتوان است اما بر مبنای تقریر دوم و نیز تفسیر اصالت وجود بر مبنای نظام وحدت شخصی، می‌توان بر از میان بردن این دو‌گانه موفق شد که البته توفیق نهایی در ارائه تبیینی مطلوب از مساله فعل خاص الهی، مشروط بر هماهنگی آن با مبانی دیگر نظام صدرایی و نیز تامین مولفه‌های دیگر تفسیر مطلوب از فاعلیت خاص الهی است.}, keywords_fa = {فعل خاص,اصالت وجود,وحدت تشکیکی,وحدت شخصی,ملاصدرا}, url = {https://wisdom.ihcs.ac.ir/article_7883.html}, eprint = {https://wisdom.ihcs.ac.ir/article_7883_d7aec4e2aa6ebc20a9a8421348c17284.pdf} }
