ملخص الجهاز:

(Sadr al-Muta'allihin, 581-591/9:9731) Conclusion of the Eleven Principles If the principles that Mulla Sadra has stated—after investigation into the hadiths and contemplation of the verses of the Holy Qur'an, in explaining the correct nature of the bodily existence in the hereafter and its identity with the worldly body (ibid. (Sadr al-Muta'allihin, 582:6431) Mulla Sadra, in another explanation under the title "Oriental Wisdom," explains the quality of the resurrection of the human's worldly body in the hereafter in another way, stating that within the interior of every human body, in addition to the skin and appearance, there exists a human-like animal with all complete organs, senses, and powers; this human-natured animal exists within every human in this world and does not die with the death of the elemental fleshy body. (Sadr al-Muta'allihin, 1/63:0431) The Origination of Imaginal Bodies of the Hereafter and Their Agent Mulla Sadra has presented two views in explaining the quality of the issuance of the imaginal bodies of the hereafter and their agent; In some of his works, he considers the agent of these bodies to be the soul and states that: the bodies of the hereafter, like shadows, are similar to the worldly body and are imaginal rays that are issued from the soul through purely causal aspects, without the intervention of the receptive world; and in relation to the soul, they have a shadowy existence.
