A Comparative Study of Communication Element Theorem (from the Viewpoints of Imam Khomeini and Allameh Tabataba i)

One of the subjects which, despite its importance, has been given less attention as a topic of discussion is the distinctive aspects of substantive perceptions from contingent perceptions, and their method of comparison with different scientific subjects. A subject which, in spite of a simple appearance, has many complexities and its understanding requires much effort and utilization of the experiences of previous scholars. Therefore, the present research has addressed a scientific subject, the Communication Element Theorem, from two different dimensions, that is substantive (philosophical) and contingent (catechistic), and on this path, has made use of the comparative study of two key figures of our age, namely Imam Khomeini and Allameh Tabataba’i. We have determined as the basis of the discussion the differentiation between substantive and contingent as the principles of thought of these two notable persons, and based on this differentiation, we have studied and conducted research on Communication Element Theorem, which consists of two dimensions of substantive (the benchmark and reality stage which is the syndetic philosophical existence) and contingent (the verbal and statement of reality stage which is the syndetic meaning).
