Metode Memperoleh Ilmu Huduri Menurut Mulla Sadra

Abstract

Epistemological discourse of ilmu h_}ud_}u^>ri^> (knowledge by pres­ence), according to the history of Islamic thought, has emerged in the Is­lamic world before Mulla^> S_}adra^>, particularly among Muslim Peripatetic in one side, with Illumination philosophers, ‘irfa^>ni^>’thought, and sufi phi­losophers in other side. These paradigm differences, according to the his­tory, create differences in epistemological concept of ilmu h_}ud_}u^>ri^> which ends on truth claim, and affect on continued polemics. Mulla^> S_}adra^> in his intellectual career has encountered this kind of epistemological polemics. This research aims to describe Mulla^> S_}adra^>’s frame of epistemological thought of ilmu h_}ud_}u^>ri^> in the midst of the epistemological polemics. The findings are, that Mulla^> S_}adra^>’s typology of philosophical thought on ilmu h_}ud_}u^>ri^> is h_}ikmah, that is an association between rational and mystical vi­sion, which then is in harmonic with syariah.
