Divine Names and Attributes from thePerspective of Hakim Mullahadi Sabzevari

The subject of theoretical mysticism is the Truth (Subhanahu wa taala) and the modifications of the Absolute Essence can be recognized only by Divine Names and Attributes, so a discussion of the Names and Attributes that lead to the knowledge of God becomes necessary. The present article, using a library-based and descriptive-analytical method and examining Sabzevarichr('39')s views on the issue, from an epistemological perspective tries to explain their role in the creation of beings, Divine Conduct and Knowledge, the way in which the Truth is connected with the world of creation and Divine knowledge and providence. The results of this research show that from the perspective of personal unity of existence, it is the real existence of God and other beings are its symbols and things that are related to God through Names. Attributes with regard totheir concepts may be taken as multiple and have a unique essence, and the teaching of Names is real and existential. Although the Names and Attributes of God can not be considered apart from the Essence, but regarding the level of absoluteness, the Names and Attributes can be regarded for and related to It.
