`Mullā Ṣadrā on Theodicy and the Best of All Possible Worlds' in Journal of Islamic Studies, Vol. 18, No. 2 May 2007, pp.
Abstract
"The argument that the world that God has created is the best of all possible world-orders (asan al-nim) is based on the premise that God always acts optimally. As a response to the problem of evil, the argument seeks to remove any tensions between the imperfection of the world and God's power and goodness. ar al-Dn al-Shirz, known commonly as Mulla Sadr (d. 1640), develops a number of arguments to defend the thesis as formulated by al-Ghazl. While reiterating the previous arguments, Mull adr revises the question of theodicy within the context of his concept of existence and its modalities. Instead of discussing the problem of evil in terms of moral imperfections alone, he defines the world of existence as ‘that which is necessarily less than God’ and thus bound to be imperfect. Furthermore, Mull adr interprets all evil, natural or moral, as serving a higher purpose because the world is structured in a hierarchical way and for everything there is a teleological history. The article looks critically at the eight arguments which adr advances to defend his position. At the end of his elaborate discussions, however, adr takes refuge in blessed ignorance and faithfully accepts that not all problems of philosophy can be solved decisively. "

Oxford : Oxford University Press on behalf of the University of Manchester, 2007. viii, 191 pp. (= SERIES Journal of Semitic studies. Supplement ; 18). ISBN 0199297428. / ISBN 9780199297429. Product Description "Mulla Sadra Shirazi is the first attempt in English to produce a thorough preparatory study of the intellectual biography of this famous Safavid thinker. Previous attempts by other thinkers have been marred by ideological prejudice and the lack of serious intellectual rigour. A proper understanding of Islamic intellectual history requires the study of canonical thinkers, of which Mulla Sadra is certainly one in the philosophical tradition of Iran. The book eschews legends and theoretical constructs of bibliography in favour of a rigorous life that draws upon a wide range of primary sources, many of which are unpublished, and that demonstrate the significance and context of the intellectual contributions of Mulla Sadra. Mulla Sadra Shirazi is quite a traditional biography in that it seeks to locate the life of the thinker and his works in his historical and intellectual content. The course of ideas in Islam is an area of research that is of great interest at the moment; even the study of philosophy has flourished in recent years. Consistently, with recent works on other Islamic philosophers, this book sets the standard for approaching Islamic intellectual history by insisting upon an historical and source-critical approach, allied with a keen philological, but also philosophical, appreciation of the intellectual life of a thinker. The life is based upon the most recent scholarship on Safavid history and draws widely upon primary sources in Arabic and Persian, including a number of works in manuscript. For students of Islamic thought in the early modern period and those with a particular interest in philosophy in Safavid Iran, this book should be the first point of reference. Mulla Sadra Shirazi will become the foundation for further research both on Mulla Sadra and his thought, as well as the thought and intellectual trends of his period."
