Compatibility of Revelation and Reason in Transcendental Philosophy

Transcendental philosophy is fundamentally based upon the teachings of different fields including peripatetic philosophy, illuminative philosophy, theoretical mysticism, especially that of Mohyeddin Arabi and theology. The holy Qoran and logical demonstration, however, have been the most essential fundamental element in this philosophical school of thought. This paper has dealt with and emphasized on the compatibility of Divine law and reason in this school. An especial emphasis has been put on Divine revelation. As is understood in Sadra's philosophical teachings, when dealing with ontological propositions one cannot rely on reason alone but, in addition, the teachings of revelation nature are directly or indirectly needed. The most significant reason on the claim consists in quantitative and qualitative extension of the content in transcendental philosophy.
