Abstract

Ontological expounding ohf the relation of the Almighty Truth with
creatures is among most significant discussions with which all scholars, including theologians, philosophers, and mystics, have dealt. That discussion is dependent upon "general principles" discussions on the one hand and is meant to offer an ontology in the theological thought on the other. Difference in the foundations of general principles has a remarkable int1uence upon image of the relation of the Truth with creatures. The relation of the Truth with creatures refers to the relation between "maker and made" in theological image and to the relation between "cause and effect" in Peripatetic philosophical one. In the philosophy of Mulla Sacha, it takes another image through a new analysis of causality which can be referred to two main analogies of "sun and ray" and "fact and its mirrored form". After expounding those two images, along with mentioning some of their foundations and results, the preference of the second image to the first one is described.
