  1 - The Status of Abu al-cAbbās Qaßßāb ĀmulÊ in the Spiritual Geneology of Shaikh-i "Ishrāq

  Abu al-cAbbās Qaßßāb ĀmulÊ, an Iranian sufi of the 4th century A.H. is one of the leading figures of the Futuwwah and chivalry. In the present article, the reason of mentioning him in the spiritual geneology of Shaikh-i "Ishrāq in al-Mashāric wa al-muãāriÈāt is examined. Considering the similarity of his views on spiritual journey with the fundamental ideas of KhusruwānÊ mystics of the eastern side of wisdom, such as intuitive tawÈÊd and other related subjects, and because of the conformity of his chivalric manner with that of the KhusruwānÊ wisdom and Mazdaism, and also for some other textual and rational arguments, it is legitimate to regard him as a link in transmiting the eternal essence of wisdom from the spiritual kings of ancient Iran (kÊyåmarth, Firiydån, Kaykhusruw) to BāyazÊd BasãāmÊ and \allāj, and finally to Abu al-\asan KharaqānÊ.

  2 - The Ṭur-i ‘Aẓam or Ṭāmat al-Kubrā in Souhrawadī’s Thought
  فاطمه Samadi رضا Asadpour

  Ṭāmat al-Kubrā or “great catastrophe” is a kind of mystical experience in which the mystic connects with the Active Intellect, the tenth of Aristotelian Intelligences or Gabriel in religious traditions. Souhrawadī’s order is based on contemplation, invocation and asceticism in which the novice should observe the religious injunctions and follow the commands of a mystical master so he/she could be able to have a mystical experience. At the final stage of his/her mystical journey the mystic experiences the state of absorption (fanā’), at the very moment he/she visits the Active Intellect. The ascension of the Prophet of Islam is an example of the transcendence of human soul and is a proof of the accessibility of it for other human beings. Even they could go beyond and could be completely absorbed in Divine Essence.  Manuscript profile

  A survey of the writings of Sheikh Shihabuddin Yahya Suhrawardi known as "Sheikh al-Ishraq" reveals his comprehensiveness in both "ratiocination" and "discovery and enthusiasm" theosophies (philosophies). It also reveals his writings' diversity and enjoyment of dynamics. Suhrawardi's works are written in different and theosophical styles. His esoteric treatises such as the Red intellect, The Chant of the Wing of Gabriel, alghrbat alghorbiyat, the Lover's friend and the other various treatises like "the Language of Termites" which we are going to explain and expand it in this article are an important and valuable group of his writings specifying the disciples' way, their barriers and goals. He wrote this treatise in very sweet and symbolic language and a combination of metaphors and Zoroastrian, Hermes and Islamic mysteries and states the journey of the spirit to God and uniting with Him and human beings' innate enthusiasm for the acquisition of knowledge.

  Sheikh Ishraq (1191-1154) is a well-known scholar and creative philosopher, who, in his mystical and universal perspective, expresses philosophical and epistemological issues.The flavor of his words in the penetration and effectiveness of it is the citation and affirmations that are related to the verses of the Qur'an. The present study seeks to explore and explain the Qur'anic approach to the Quranic verses and its findings through an analytical-descriptive approach to one of the compilations of this divine wise called Hayakel-Al Nur. The result of this research is that the wisdom and philosophy of Sheikh Sohrevardi in his works are more than anything else based on the Holy Quran and the Islamic teachings, and his transcendent and fundamental ideas are also taken up in this short essay and directly influenced by verses. As well as the themes of the Holy Qur'an. Reflection of these impacts can be found in three forms: statement, report, and lexical. In propositional influence, Sohrevardi takes on the direct assimilation of the verses and collectively refers to six verses from the word of revelation. But most of the Qur'anic approaches are considered, attention to various propositions of the Qur'an and the variety of the implicit use of the verses. This approach is devoted to translate and report, and use semantics of verses, which gives the text content a coherence. Finally, we have mentioned the lexical impact. In this way, Sohrevardi mentions the Qur'anic compositions and compositions, or uses combinations that depend on that Quranic term. Manuscript profile

  The issues of separation from higher world, spiritual nostalgia and return to origin have been expressed with symbolic language in allegorical texts of Iranian-Islamic mysticism.  One of the most important texts is Sohravardi's Ghorbat al-gharbiyah (the Occidental exile). Sohravardi proposes the concept of "the Occidental exile" in a utopian and an idealistic geography. By using descriptive-analytical method, the present article tries to study this concept in Masnavi Manavi of Jalāl al-Din Rūmi and to show his hermeneutic and mystical apprehensions with regards to Sohravardi's allegories. The research shows that how Sohravardian terms like ideal east and west, utopia, corps astral, being imprisoned in tenebrous well and mystical journey (suluk) to the east and higher world, all have been manifested in Masnavi Manavi. Doing so, it reveals that the common source of these two scholars, is, Quranic hermeneutic. They interpret the tales and allegories of Quran and indicate that the man can obtain his/her divine and luminous identity and understand that his/her true place is not the material world, and must resort to intuition and purification.

  10 - Representation of the most important cognitive principles in Hakim Suhrawardi and Allameh Tabatabai’s epistemology

  The method of the works of these sages when compared, it may be said that one of the most important epistemological topics of the illuminative philosophy is the emphasis on the discussion of knowledge in presence and intuition. He considers the knowledge in presence to be infallible and true knowledge, but he considers the acquired knowledge to be a pure mental imagination which has no benefit from the  reality; Rather, what it has is only a form and an image of an object in the mind with external reality; of course, in the discussion of truth and falsehood, it agrees with the "theory of conformity" and in the discussion of the value of knowledge, it is "fundamentalist". Unlike Sheikh Ishraq, Allameh believes in a purely rational way that first; The origin of all knowledge and perceptions, even axioms, is  senses and sensual perceptions, and the abstraction of axioms from sensory concepts is unimpeded; He also attributes the formation of self-evident intelligences to another activity of the mind, which is the abstraction and derivation of philosophical second intelligences; Acquired knowledge is a rational derivation obtained from a known  in presence to which the intellect has inevitably admitted, and it is the known in presence of an imaginal and rational being which comes to the present of knower with its external existence, and this is the basis for Allameh to enter Discussion of knowledge in presence. Allameh, like Suhrawardi, believes in the "theory of conformity" and "foundationalism". Manuscript profile

  In the first view, the bases of psychology in Sohrawardi's works are subordinate to those of the followers, and this depicts a contradiction. On the other hand, according to the progress of Sheikh Ishraq's intellectual maturity, the difference can be referred to, but the intention in this matter is not far from the mind. So it should be checked that; Why did Sohrawardi, as an enlightened sage, also use the principles of Peripatetic in his works? This article analyzes the foundations of Shaykh Ishraq in the present knowledge of the soul in his philosophical, logical, and mystical works in his Persian treatises. By stating some shortcomings of the foundations in some perceptions, it deals with the hypothesis that in the results of Sohrawardi, although a contradiction can be seen. His intellectual maturity was also involved in this matter, but due to a specific purpose, it can be proven that this issue is intentional. Manuscript profile
