Transubstantial Motion and the Natural World
Transubstantial Motion is a thought-provoking analysis of Mulla Sadra’s innovative theory of transubstantial motion. Expounding on Sadra’s theory and critique of earlier philosophers, Mahdi Dehbashi explains how the theory of transubstantial motion bridged the physical and spiritual aspects of reality and how Sadra solved the philosophical dilemmas of his era. Also included is a translation of the chapters of al-Asfar al-Arba‘ah (The Four Spiritual Journeys) in which Mulla Sadra presents his theory and takes the reader through a rewarding discourse on the nature of space and time – a discourse only fully appreciated in the light of modern physics. In addition to discussing the physical universe, this prescient work provided a new philosophical base for Islamic metaphysics, eschatology, ethics, and the philosophy of the human soul. An essential read in Islamic philosophy.
The Triumph of Mercy
Discusses philosopher Mullā Ṣadrā's commentary on the opening chapter of the Qur'ān. Winner of the 21st International Book of the Year Prize in Iran This book investigates the convergence of philosophy, scriptural exegesis, and mysticism in the thought of the celebrated Islamic philosopher Mullā Ṣadrā (d. 1050/1640). Through a careful presentation of the theoretical and practical dimensions of Ṣadrā's Qur'ānic hermeneutics, Mohammed Rustom highlights the manner in which Ṣadrā offers a penetrating metaphysical commentary upon the Fātiḥa, the chapter of the Qur'ān that occupies central importance in Muslim daily life. Engaging such medieval intellectual giants as Fakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī (d. 606/1210) and Ibn 'Arabī (d. 638/1240) on the one hand, and the wider disciplines of philosophy, theology, Sufism, and Qur'ānic exegesis on the other, Ṣadrā's commentary upon the Fātiḥa provides him with the opportunity to modify and recast many of his philosophical positions within a scripture-based framework. He thereby reveals himself to be a profound religious thinker who, among other things, argues for the salvation of all human beings in the afterlife.
Crisis, Collapse, Militarism and Civil War
The history of 18th century Iran has been neglected but is vital for understanding contemporary Iran, and is a fascinating drama in its own right. This book presents contributions from the leading experts on this period worldwide, and is a major advance in this important area of Iranian Studies.
A Universe in Constant Change: Mulla Sadra and Transubstantial Change
This book is an interpretation of one of the central themes of Mulla Sadra’s philosophy of existence known as ‘transubstantial change’. It provides, for the first time in English, a comprehensive analysis of transubstantial change in light of Sadrian ontology and its impact on some philosophical issues such as identity, values, and truth. As the author elucidates, in transubstantial change nothing is indestructible and everything in the world, including substance, is inconstant renewal.

Al-Hikmah Al-Muta’aliyah Mulla Sadra
Buku pengantar ke biografi intelektual Mulla Sadra sudah lama kita tunggu-tunggu. Sudah cukup lama pemikiran Mulla Sadra diperkenalkan di Indonesia, termasuk terjemahan beberapa bukunya, namun belum ada biografi memadai tentang hidup dan garis besar pemikiran tokoh ini. Karya Nasr ini, meski ringkas dan mudah dipahami, pada saat yang sama bersifat komprehensif dan tak kehilangan kedalaman. Buku ini bisa menjadi pengantar yang bagus untuk memelajari lebih jauh pemikiran Mulla Sadra. —Haidar Bagir, dosen STFI Sadra Jakarta Buku ini tidaklah harus dilihat sekadar sebagai pengantar informatif, tetapi kita harus melihatnya sebagai sebuah pengantar untuk menghidupkan elemen intelektual atau “p...
