Divine Manifestations - Concerning the Secrets of the Perfecting Sciences (Hardcover)

Divine Manifestations is the first English translation of Mulla Sadra Shirazis final work on divine metaphysics. Written at the request of his students who wanted a concise and accessible summary of his philosophy, Divine Manifestations exemplifies the rational theology Mulla Sadra is famed for. In Divine Manifestations, Mulla Sadra addresses the most gripping topics in Islamic theology in a thoroughly thought-provoking manner. This work represents Mulla Sadras ultimate metaphysical perspective; it is interwoven with his innovative Quranic interpretation and is replete with commentary on, and indirect criticism of, the orthodox theology of his day.
