چکیده:
The philosophy of the creation of the world and the evils that exist within it has always been one of the questions of philosophers and theologians. Relying on the key elements of the concept of providence—namely knowledge, causality, will, and pleasure—Ibn Sina has attempted to provide a clear picture of the cause of creation and the existence of the system of goodness present in the world. It seems that this explanation is not capable of clarifying all dimensions and ambiguous aspects of the issue or providing a convincing answer to all existing problems. The present article attempts, by relying on the words of Ibn Sina and supplements borrowed from Transcendent Wisdom, to formulate the above issue more clearly and answer the questions surrounding it.

In other words, by proposing the subject of Providence, they have sought to show that purpose in the sense that is discussed regarding humans and other deficient beings capable of reaching perfection cannot be discussed regarding God, and divine acts stem from the Providence of God; an attribute based on God's essential knowledge of Himself and His perfectionary effects, as well as the will and love He has for His essence and His perfectionary effects.
It has been said: if the meaning of providence is that God, due to knowledge of His own essence, has knowledge of the system of good and the best system, and based on the will He has for this system, He creates it, then how is it that all this evil has come into existence in the world?
