Free will as the most obvious human perception Has always faced with theoretical barriers. Science, Divine absolute power and will is one of the theological barriers. Hereditary and geographical factors are the scientific obstacles And necessitate causation as one of the branches of causality, is philosophical obstacles in agent cause cognition. Incompatibility in necessitate causation with cognition agent cause makes philosopher of different thoughts in traditional Islamic thought to answer them according to its intellectual foundation. Philosopher By accepting necessitate causation consider agent cause's will as the last component of perfect causation to justify optional action. But theologian deny necessitate causation and replace it with preponderance. then found essential possibility sufficient for optional actions.although they deny necessity that is derivated from necessitate causation. accordingly they are proven free will by denying necessity and sufficiency of preponderance .meanwhile Some Osolions of Shia that are known in the name of Naeeni's circle by their special theory,denied necessitate causation about agent cause but accepted necessitate causation for the rest of subjects. as a result they proved free will in agent cause. Following research not only will provide several answers but also tries to emphasize and highlight Osolions of Shia answers.

Afdal al-Din Kashani, the philosopher and divine sage of the sixth and seventh centuries, has written several works, in particular in the field of self-knowledge. One of the most significant philosophical concepts to which almost every philosopher has paid attention and Afdal al-Din has also given an independent vote on, is the concept of the “time” and its relation to the aeon and eternity. He, like other metaphysicians, considers a transcendent principle for time which belongs to the world of immaterial things or intelligentsia. He considers “time” as the moving image of immortality, while he applies the word “aeon” instead of benefiting from the word of immortality. From Afdal’s point of view, Dahr is determined as the amount of existence. The important point is that the philosophy of Afdal is based on intuition and self- consciousness. Therefore, he is more likely to belong to the Ishraqiyun. Also, his emphasis on aeon, as the truth from eternity to eternity, leads us to the ancient origins of Afdal's viewpoint, in particular its relation to Zurvanite esoterism. In present paper, after mentioning the background about philosophical and mystical concepts of time, we will examine the Baba Afdal’s viewpoint in this regard beside explaining his mystical approach.

This article is to study the relation between applied humanities and phronesis. The methodology is conceptual analysis, so in the first place, by providing the definition of application and praxis, the concepts of applied humanities and social sciences, and phronesis are analyzed. In this regard, a variety of Muslim philosophers' thoughts about phronesis are categorized and compared with Aristotle's Concept of phronesis. Then the concepts of applied Social sciences and phronesis are compared from different aspects. Regarding the technological nature of applied humanities and social sciences in one hand, and the virtuous nature of phronesis in another hand, at last this question is argued whether it is logically possible that phronesis uses pure theories of humanities and social sciences instead of Sophia and episteme to order to produce virtuous social Sciences.

In this research, for provide the basis of Islamic ethics philosophy, the theory of utilitarianism Has been compared to Islamic doctrines and Qur'anic verses and is organized in a descriptive-analytical approach in two parts: First, the ordain of divine rules has been examined since the Quran's moral system is based on general rules. And second, the impetus to enact laws has not been taken into consideration and the status of the servants has been considered and the standard of moral action has been explored in terms of existing laws and regulations. as a result although the contents of many Qur'anic verses are consistent with the principles of utilitarianism in terms of practical results, the "principle of profit" cannot be regarded as the basis of moral practice or principle. However, verses that appear to be incompatible with profitability have also been mentioned.

Notion of consciousness is one of the most important problems in the history of philosophy. Because of the difficulty of defining consciousness, some philosophers have divided it into phenomenal consciousness, access consciousness, self-consciousness, and monitoring consciousness. Philosophers who associate consciousness with the soul, such as Mulla Sadra, from which he refers to the knowledge of presence and on that basis, it explains the characteristics of consciousness, all types of consciousness refer to something beyond the material. This, in his view, can not reduce consciousness to matter.This is while the physicalist views, such as the theory of connectivity, attribute consciousness to matter. According to connectors, consciousness can be explained using artificial neural networks. Contrary to its claims, this theory is incapable of explaining the types and characteristics of knowledge. In this theory, the reason that attributes awareness to neural networks is to make awareness equal to the processing of information. While, according to Mulla Sadra, consciousness (understanding of information) involves processing information.But it is also possible to process information without consciousness. According to Mulla Sadra's view, therefore, the relation between consciousness and information processing cannot be equated.

According to philosophers intellect is the rational faculty of the soul, by which one can understand the truth universally. Now the question is how much this definition of intellect conforms to the Quran's view. Islamic Philosophers believe that intellect has got various capabilities to reach differing degrees. In the lower degrees intellect can deduce, analyze and synthesize the concepts. Through contemplation, reflection as well as purification, this faculty could develop and would be able to connect with the world beyond and unify with separated intelligences and reach the truth immediately. Thus, the intellect controls the whole cognitive activities of human being including understanding, deduction, assessment, development, spiritual observation and his practical actions. In other words, the real existential dimension of man always thinks and acting accordingly. This concept of intellect is the one Quran verses admitted.

The dome of the mosque leads the eyes and heart of the viewer to the ascendancy, which it is reminder of sublimation. The center of the dome is the symbol of unity and the lower level is the symbol of the soul. In this paper, based on Sadra 's philosophy (including of the three worlds; sense, imagination and wisdom), a visualization the mosque's dome associated with these three cosmos is presented. Materials of the dome is perceived by the sense of eye as a reminder of the physical world. The cube and sphere in the dome, which emerged from the imagination of the architect artist, is like a fantasy world and a form of congregation, which begins from the base of the dome (multiplicity) and reaches to the top of the dome (unity), it shows the congregation and stability of the wisdom world. God is the origin of the universe, if the mosque's space is like the universe, then the mosque also has the origin with that passes through the entrance and the courtyard to it, which eventually ends to the dome.

The dichotomy of mind/body, and form/matter are two of most problematic questions in western philosophy, which could be retraced to ancient Greece and have been lasted until age of enlightenment. Post-modernists hold that this dualism and dichotomy are reflected in the most aspects of civilization explicitly, and that, the I/Other dualism is a sequence of it. Thus, the philosophical contrasting between mind/body, and form/matter should be a subject of our thinking. The resolution of the mind/body dualism is sought based on the Sadrian unity of being, in this paper. The employed method is dialectics and communicational and it is tried to find and advanced a resolution of the mind/body dualism in a intercultural philosophy space, with an eye on Sadrian philosophy. Mulla Sadra’s resolution to this problem is explained from two points of view; from an ontological viewpoint, resolve mind/body problem is possible by imagination world intermediating. From a epistemological viewpoint, resolve mind/body problem is possible by imagination faculty intermediating, as well. Mulla Sadra also look into soul intermediating for pushing mind and body into a kind of unity.

One of the important voids in Iranian, even World, logical Studies is absence of a comprehensive History of Islamic Logic. The works has been done in the East and West hitherto are steps for peregrinating a long road which should be continued many years. Writing a history of Islamic Logic naturally should be begun by the study of the development of Porphyry’s Isagoge, a book that always was the first part of all logical writings in the history of Islamic Logic. Doing this, in turn, should be begun by the study of Ibn al-Muqaffaʿ’s Isagoge, a paraphrase that firstly introduced Porphyry’s Isagoge to the Islamic World.

Philosophy and Jurisprudence in the Islamic World aims at developing the history of Islamic philosophy beyond Aristotelianism. The chapters of the book can be divided into two main parts. While one part addresses the juridical aspects of the works of those who are known as "philosophers" in the Islamic world, the other part is about Muslim jurists who have developed philosophical ideas in their works. For the most part, the topics are about questions in ethics and legal philosophy. The book can serve as starting point in the road to broadening the history of Islamic philosophy and understanding it in tandem with other aspects of Islamic intellectual history.

The aim of the present article is to investigate the relationship between imagination and emotions and to explain the role and way of the involvement of imagination in the emotional domain. The essence of the imagination, the nature of the affections and the relation between the imagination and emotions, are the three main questions in the current research. Analysis and inference method was used to explain the subject. Preserving the faces after the sensory perception of phenomena, seizure in the repository faces, and the transformation of perceptual faces, are the main functions of imagination in the field of cognitive activity and self-stimulation. Instincts, natures and emotions are considered as the infrastructures of human tendencies. Emotions, while being acquired, are human tools for survival and excellence. According Mulla Sadra, emotions create motivation to move in human, and focus on self-esteem from scattered efforts and willing, in a single direction. According to him, emotions can be considered a kind of heart action by being activated in our existence, and since the activities of the soul are united with the oneself and are the part of it, then they can be the constructor of the ultimate entity of human and his/her overwordly face. The imagination is the origin of the emergence of emotions, the cause of the survival and decline of the emotions, and is the reason for meaning and revival of the emotions.

During the sensory perception, two stages occur, one is the sensation of the sensory member and the other is the perception of the soul. The first stage is material and the second stage is single. Based on the union of the soul and the body, the soul has knowledge of the material influences that are present in the senses, and this science is of the nature of knowledge. Allameh Tabatabai and Martyr Motahhari tend to this viewpoint on the epistemological properties of this theory, the ability to explain the cause of the emergence There are some sensory errors. The acceptance of the presence of science in the material affection of the sensory member is commensurate with the promise of the acquisition of sensory perception. Ibn Sina and Sadrà believe in the achievement of sensory perception, they consider themselves to be in front of Suhrawardi and Sabzevari. According to the recent viewpoint, it finds its own soul, so the inaccuracy of perception can not be realized externally, while in the face of an external sensory instrument, in some cases the face appears inconsistent with the self, thus, it can not be The presence of sensory perception
