Abstract: (605 Views)
From a mystical point of view, all the Divine Names are the Names of the Essence. The problem of the present research is to investigate and determine the Attribute of Power, in terms of the Essence Attribute or action Attribute. If we accept that Power is one of the Attributes of Essence, we must solve the problem that the Attribute of Essence must always appear, while Power does not appear at all times. A doubt that is sometimes answered from a mystical point of view is that the Attribute of Power can simply exist, but it has remained in the depth covered. Molla Hadi Sabzevari accepts the second case due to his mystical tendencies. This research has presented and explained Sabzevari's theory based on library sources and descriptive and analytical method. The findings of the present research indicate that Hakim Sabzevari, in the issue of "Divine Power" based on the definition of the necessity of being free to act or refrain from acting, does not deal with one of the two problems of God's approval or revolution in Essence, but with a mystical view, the ancientness of manifestation. Essence means the oldness of the four Attributes of life, Knowledge, Power and Lordship, and this is the Essence, not the Action. Keywords: Divine Power, Attributes of Essence, Attributes of Action, Will and Choice, Hakim Sabzevari.
