A Comparative Study of Philosophical Wisdom and Ethical Wisdom from Avicenna and Mulla Mahdi Naraqi's Views

Philosophers have divided wisdom into two parts of theoretical wisdom and practical wisdom; then they have divided the latter into three parts including siyasate modon, tadbire manzel, and ethics, which is partt of wisdom and includes four virtues of chastity, courage, wisdom and justice. Now the question arises as: what is the diference between second order wisdom and forth order wisdem in this structural division? In this article, we are going to look at the viewpoints of Buali Sina and the late Mullah Mehdi Naraghi on the difference between philosophical wisdom and moral wisdom. Comparing these two Views, the result is that Avicenna's response is comprehensive and has confirmed by such philosophers as Sheikh Ishraq and Mulla Sadra. The research method in this paper is analytic and information is collected based on library and documentary data.
