The next session of the Logic and Religion Webinar (LARAW) will be August 17 at 4pm CET
Title: CONTRADICTION IN ISLAMIC PHILOSOPHY AND MYSTICISM
Speaker: Mohammad Jafar Jame Bozorgi (Iranian Institute of Philosophy, Iran)
Abstract: In their works, Graham Priest and Richard Routley try to show a kind of refusal to deny the contradiction and even display the truth of some of them. According to them, dialetheism is a reaction against philosophical systems whose goal has always been to build impenetrable and rigid forms and frameworks. But what is the opinion of Islamic philosophy? In Islamic philosophy and mysticism, especially in Ibn Arabi's mysticism and Mulla Sadra's philosophy, there are doctrines and theories that have caused some philosophers to suspect that they are contradictory. In this lecture, I will show that theories such as the Unity of Existence, the Plurality of Divine Names and Attributes, the Ontological Foundation of Existence, the Substantive Movement, etc., do not correspond to dialetheism. Although Mulla Sadra's theory of the Substantive Movement denies any fixed nature for the object, there is a great difference between the negation of the quiddity and the denial of the originality of the quiddity.
Chair: Ali Sadegh Daghighi (Iranian Institute of Philosophy, Iran)
