Abstract:
The interpretation of the existence of reason as an entity independent of human existence is based on continuous narratives and rational arguments that are divided into two theories. This research evaluates these two theories with a descriptive analytical method. The theory of "intellect as the first creature" is based on the rational-philosophical argument and is inconsistent with the results of the textual analysis of the traditions in "the compatibility of the first creature with reason" and "its non-belonging to the field of human life". The analysis of "paradoxical essence similar to active intellect" has tried to provide a rational explanation of the theory and is more compatible with traditions, therefore in "acceptance of independent existence", "unity in the same multiplicity", "acceptance of movement and interaction", "separation from human identity" At the same time as belonging to the human sphere, the "relationship of enlightenment with the speaking soul" is compatible with the traditions, but since the explanation of the theory uses rational-philosophical foundations, it believes in the existence of "suspiciousness", "the influence of reason on the levels of the speaking soul", "how Multiplicity of minds" is incompatible with traditions
Machine summary:
The analysis of intellect as a separate substance similar to the active intellect is formed on the basis of textualism, but an attempt has been made to provide a rational explanation for it, and it has greater compatibility with the traditions; therefore, in accepting independent existence, unity in multiplicity, acceptance of motion, action, and passion, separation from human identity while being connected to the human realm, and the illuminative relationship Citation for this article: Nosrati, Sha'ban.
