Mulla Sadra and Freud on Dream

Freud considers dream as the result of suppressed desires which retreat to unconscious.In Islamic world too, philosophers, including Mulla Sadra, said something on this matter. Although, Freud’s conception of dream is very different from Molla- Sadra’s, we can find some similarities between them. In this paper, we showed that Freud and Mulla Sadra agree that dream is very important thing, gives knowledge, depended to senses and its content depends to person’s reason and intellect. But their views concerning the relation between dream and death, the relation between dream and sprit, the relation between dream and the unseen world, and finally, concerning the not meaningful dreams, are contrary.
