An Explanation of Fitrah Proof for the Existenc of God (with an Emphasis on Ayatollah Shahabadi's Opinions)

Reliance on human inner and natural way to God may be regarded as the best ground for proving the existence of God. The reason why lies in its being essential, public, unchangeable and, therefore, can be regarded as the best proof in the field. As human nature is equipped with various tendencies, natural proof may be presented variously. In the proof, the existence of God is proved with reliance on human natural and inner love to absolute perfection. In another form of the proof, human hope while hardship and lacking of every appear support, His existence would be proved. Relying on Sadra`s meaning of puberty possibility and Avicenna`s proof of possibility and necessity, Shahabadi`s proof of God`s needless essence would be proved. For Shahabadi, other forms of the proof on the basis of human natural humility, fear and hate respectively toward perfection, lacking what beloved and imperfection may be given in the field. The paper has studied Shahabadi`s manner of study on the ground.
