The Great Persian Philosopher Sadr al-Din Shirazi
Sadr al-Din al-Shirazi, who rose to prominence in the seventeenth century, is considered one of the most eminent minds in Islamic thought and the last of the great Shiite sages. Combining philosophy, religious sciences, and Sufism, he expanded the horizons of thought and ijtihad, until his name became a symbol of an entire school of thought, stemming from the Qur'an and drawing on the ancient sources of Greek philosophy, the ideas of Ibn Sina and Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi. Al-Shirazi possessed broad knowledge, for whom the paths of ancient wisdom intersected with the lights of revelation. He developed theories that transcended his time, contemplating the attributes and power of God and interpreting the universe in ways unknown to many of his contemporaries. For this reason, he was both strange and exciting; his views were met with accusations and scorn, until he was forced to leave his homeland. However, he remained as steadfast as a mountain in his quest to uncover the secrets of truth. This book provides a comprehensive and concise study of his life, highlighting his unique personality, his most prominent works, and his timeless views, which remain alive in the heart of human thought.
