Neo-Sadraean Epistemology and the Divider of the "Imagination" and "Judgment"

Differentiation of the two terms imagination and judgment is a main distinction in Islamic logic and Neo-Sadraean epistemology. Both disciplines believe that the divider of the two is "acquired knowledge". But, the concept of “judgment”, in epistemology, is not the same as the concept of "acquired knowledge" in Islamic philosophy. Differentiation of imagination and judgment is an ontological one, and Islamic philosophers consider acquired knowledge as an "epistemic being". In logic and epistemology "Judgment" is the same as "proposition", and is not an “epistemic being". “Judgment" is the origin of the two concepts: "representation" and "assertion". In logic, "Judgment" is "asserting the truth of a proposition", and in epistemology, it is the knowledge of realization or non- realization of something.
