Abstract

The salvation of the adherents of religions is one of the controversial issues in the philosophy of religion. Among Islamic scholars, Mullā Sadrā is of thinkers who explain salvation in the light of factors beyond the rightfulness and verity of religions. The significant point is that his view on this issue is entirely based on his own epistemological foundations about “revealed propositions truth-apt” and “the possibility of achieving the truth” of these propositions. In his views, although the revealed prepositions could be attributed as true or false, factors such as lack of access to fact and noumenon, indescribability of some degrees of reality in verbal propositions form, and also the dissimilarity between the speaker’s and the audience’s perception level in revealed propositions make it generally difficult to acquire these propositions. So, according to Mullā Sadrā’s opinion, salvation is possible in the light of other factors such as obedience to God and worshipping Him.
