خلاصة:
The critical analysis of teachings prepares the ground for their examination and elevation. Few teachings can be found that succeeded in obtaining a consensus and bringing about an agreement. Any teaching has, more or less, some opponents and critics. The philosophical thought has had numerous opponents with a variety of motivations and methods. The traditionalist group is one of them. Although this thought never turned into the dominant stream in the Shiite thought, there has been a taint of it in that sphere. Mulla Muhammad Amin Astarabadi, one of the pillars of traditionalism, reviews the opinions of philosophers in one section of his al-Fawa’id al Madaniyya, and uses an internal and referential approach to review and falsify the philosophical thoughts. In this article, we use an analytical-referential method to evaluate and judge his reviews.

Mulla Muhammad Amin Astrabadi, who is one of the pillars of Akhbari thought, has devoted a section of "Al-Fawa'id al-Madaniyya" to criticizing the views of sages (hukama) and has attempted to criticize and invalidate philosophical ideas through an internal and case-based approach.
Distinguishing Connection and Separation in the Issue of the Interpenetration of Stillness As we have seen, according to the claim of the philosophers, movement does not have a beginning and an end of its own kind, and non-temporal and instantaneous matters such as connection and separation, attachment and detachment, and beginning and end occur in an "instant.
Sensationalism and Conventionalism As we have seen, Astrabadi, in criticizing philosophical issues including the problem of the interpenetration of stillness between two movements, has used a sensory and conventional approach in explaining stillness and separation.
He considers reliance on sense and observation as one of the arguments for the invalidity of the philosophers' view regarding the issue of movement and the interpenetration of stillness, which can be regarded as a foundation in his epistemology and that of other traditionalists (Ahl al-Khabar).
For this reason, in the issue of the point of contention as well, he has criticized the stillness claimed by the philosophers, which is not sensorially perceivable, and has ruled on the invalidity of the judgment of reason in this regard: "In the subject matters of sciences whose principles are far from the sense, no one is infallible from error except the Purified Imams.
