Considering Mulla Sadra as a Follower of the School of Tafkik

Mulla Sadra in his transcendent philosophy used Tafkik method (i.e. separation of reason and tradition); it is claimed in a theory. According to the theory Mulla Sadra changed from his early philosophical-mystical and ta'vili method to Tafkik. The evidence of this claim is a case study on Mulla Sadra and the problem of bodily resurrection. Considering Transcendent Philosophy as a transformative school, and objectively examining his thoughts, is among the merits of this investigation. Nevertheless, there are major challenges to the theory like the exclusive view to transformation, the illusion that integrating disciplines implicates ta'vil, the inadequacy of the supportive evidence, and confusing the two claimed stages (i.e. philosophical stage and Tafkik stage).
