Views on the relationship between divine foreknowledge and human free will have considerable diversity, ranging from the negation of prior knowledge from God to the negation of free will. Most Islamic philosophers, with different explanations, have tried to prove the compatibility of the two. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to discover Sadra's approach to this issue based on ontological and cosmological principles. The comparison of written parts on this subject focuses on evolution in Mulla Sadra's view. The research findings show that Sadr al-Mut`allihin in different works and in terms of ontological and anthropological principles, has taken three different approaches in explaining the compatibility of human free will and Divine foreknowledge. The final opinion of Sadr al-Mut'allihin is in accordance with his final view on the issue of personal unity of existence and manifestation of the worlds. Keywords: Divine foreknowledge, will, Sadr al-Mut'allihin, Knowledge Correspondence to the Object, Manifestation.
