Secondly, it points out that the eschatology elaborated by the irfān šīʻi aligned with Mullā Sādra, validates, in particular, a holistic vision that includes the theory of images – in ālam al-mitālʼs conception – and the Averroes thesis about the separate character of intellect in potency. The result of this is a summarised vision, from the Islamic point of view, since it explains the problem of knowledge and human existence not only from the gnoseological point of view but also in its ontological aspects |
