Abstract

The meaning and lack of meaning of life is one of the new issues facing philosophers. Islamic philosophy, as a philosophy concerned with identifying the truths of the world, is no exception to this rule and must provide an answer to this issue. The purpose of the upcoming research is to pay attention to the issue of meaning and lack of meaning in life based on the viewpoint of transcendental wisdom with a descriptive and analytical method. The findings of the research based on the principles of transcendental wisdom can be explained in this way that transcendental wisdom considers meaning and lack of meaning from the concepts and reasonings of the philosophical second which can be abstracted from human life and the goals in human life cause these concepts to be abstracted. Hikmat Sadrai claims that the more realistic and harmonious the goals are with human life, the more meaningful life will be. The solution of transcendental wisdom in this regard is to return to nature and redefine the goals of monotheism and eternal life for humans, and these concepts make human life meaningful.
