Abstract
The “identity of subject and object” is one of the few issues that has been met with the disagreement of two great philosophers. Abu Ali as the main denial and Sadr-ol-Mote'allehin as a serious proponent. Bu Ali rejects identity of subject and object in “The Book of Healing” and “Al-Isharat” but argues in “The Book of Al-Mab-da and Al-Ma'ada” (The Book of Origin and Resurrection). This difference in the approach of Bu Ali has been questioned by later philosophers. Sadr-ol-Mote'allehin mentions three meanings for “unity” and argues that “identity of subject and object” cannot be substantiated in the first two sense by the same argument of Bu Ali, but the third meaning of unity is not only possible but it is also the realization of science at all levels. Sadra says that Bouali accepted the third meaning of unity only in “The Book of Al-Mab-da and Al-Ma'ada” (The Book of Origin and Resurrection), and then doubted that he would obtain the original view of Bu Ali. But the truth is that Boali has never spoken contradictory. But the truth is that Bo Ali has never spoken contradictory. It is not permissible to state his true view in “The Book of Healing” and “Al-Isharat” and to speak in “The Book of Al-Mab-da and Al-Ma'ada” (The Book of Origin and Resurrection) according to the philosophers. Understanding Bu Ali’s main point of view is only in the light of a detailed understanding of his system of thought which is the way we have come and have showed is the third meaning of unity that is the permanent belief of Bu Ali, and there is basically no difference between Bu Ali and Mulla Sadra.
