Akhund Khorasani's Viewpoint on the Issue of Physical Resurrection and its Sadraic Foundations

By establishing the system of sublime wisdom, Mulla Sadra was able to create a revolution in the course of philosophical thinking in the Islamic world in such a way that the history of Islamic philosophy can be divided into before Mulla Sadra and after him. He was able to rationally explain the important and difficult issue of bodily resurrection with the foundations of transcendental wisdom. Mulla Sadra’s explanation was accepted by most philosophers after him. Akhund Khorasani has also used the principles of transcendental wisdom in this matter. One of the dimensions of Akhund Khorasani's thought is his theological dimension, which has been less noticed and overshadowed by his jurisprudence and principles. One of the most important theological issues raised and discussed in Aakhund's thought is the issue of "resurrection" and especially "physical resurrection".

Therefore, the aim of this research is to explore the opinion of Aakhund Khorasani on the issue of physical resurrection and it is expressed as follows: "What is the opinion of Aakhund Khorasani about physical resurrection and what are its philosophical foundations?" This research was carried out through a rational and reasoning approach. The most important finding of this study is that Akhund Khorasani was influenced by the important principles of transcendental wisdom such as the originality of existence, gradation in being, personal unity of existence, essential movement in the discussion of resurrection, and the issue of physical resurrection.
