The study of Sadra's social justice theory from the point of view of political philosophy

The main purpose of this essay was to answer the fundamental questions of justice research in the field of political philosophy. To achieve this goal, by first examining Sadra's work, his views on social justice were extracted, and then his explicit answers to these questions were attempted. Accordingly, the findings of the study indicate that: 1. From his point of view, there are three bases for the theory of justice (the nature of human nature, how human beings interact with each other in the presupposed social state, and the relationship of human nature with how society is formed). 2. Justice is not the ultimate goal and true virtue. 3. The law is the source of access to the content of justice. 4. Social justice is contractual. 5. And finally, the possibility of establishing justice in society is only possible through effort, and one of the consequences of establishing justice in society is the sovereignty of rationality, and society without justice is not a suitable place for a blissful life. Importantly, many of the fundamental questions of political philosophy about justice remain unanswered in Sadra's works.
