Abstract

The present article, a research work on Islamic philosophy, seeks to present a comparative analysis of Divine Unity in Imam Ali's words in Nahj al-Balagha and the arguments for the unity of God advanced by AVICENNA. It seeks to show that there is some sort of inconsistency between Imam Ali’s words in Nahj al-Balagha and AVICENNA's philosophical arguments for the unity of God. To do so, the author explains the meaning of Unity of the Divine Essence in accordance with the two levels of ahadiyat (unicity) and wahidiyat (oneness), the relation between simplicity and oneness, the fact that the Divine Unity is the TRUE AND REAL UNITY (not a sort of numerical unity), and, last but not least, tries to provide an explanation of the Divine Essence with His qualities and the practical identity of all of His qualities. He concludes that the Divine Simple, Pure Essence is devoid of any multiplicity and that to attribute additional qualities to God's Pure Essence is not consistent with His Pure Simplicity.
