Abstract

There is a discrepancy among Islamic philosophers and theologians on the presence of PURPOSE in God’s actions and the lack of it. The Ash'rite theologians consider any kind of PURPOSE in God’s actions in opposition with His essential perfection and so deny it altogether. In contrast, the theological philosophers and 'Adleeyeh theologians' (believers in divine justice) believe that God has a PURPOSE and an end in His actions and no action emanates from Him without being directed toward a specific PURPOSE. But there is controversy over the target of God’s actions among these scholars.Adleeyeh theologians believe that PURPOSE must be targeted toward someone or something other than God; otherwise, it would be against His essential perfection.While philosophers argue that PURPOSE must be targeted to God himself, otherwise, it would be against this principle that a sublime being does not need to mean and is not perfected by it. What all scholars agree on is that ‘the violation of PURPOSE is obscene’ since it leads to the union of wanting and not wanting a single act which is impossible.The principle of ‘obscenity of PURPOSE violation’ has so many applications in rational theology that one can hardly find any other principle with a comparable number of applications. The principle of the presence of PURPOSE in God’s actions is discussed in relation to divine unity first and then it is related to the other basic tenets of faith such as justice, PROPHECY, leadership (Imamat) and RESURRECTION.
