A Comparative Study of the Teleology of the Cosmos inIslamic Philosophy and Sunni Theology

One of the general questions regarding the divine actions is thatwhether divine actions have any finality and destination or they are freeof any destination. The debate on finality and ultimate causes have avery strong connection with divine theosophy and is recognized as oneof the most valuable issues in theosophy; because if we deny thefinality and ultimate causes in the realm of existence, it would lead tothis conclusion that the cosmos would be void of a divine actor or anykind of actor. Hence, some philosophers and theologians have namedthis topic as " of wisdom transcendent God".(Lahiji, 1362, p. 73)
