Abstract

In This essay will be discussed that two facts can be considered for deviding corporal beings to substance and physical accidents.The first cause is rooted from solving the problem of change.Peripatetics against the sophists obliged to devide every changeable objects to accidental part and snbstatial part and the chang was restricted to accidents. The second problem that Aristotelians have been trying to solve it by accepting the accidents was explaining the quality of multiplicity of physical species. But from the view point of Mulla sadra’s philosophy , the existance is the just solution for the both problems. On the basis of his thaught, the existance is absolute essential agent of individualization of the physical species and since, The substantial motion theory has been accepted in this philosophy, we could see there is no emergent for agreement to the accidents against the substance. From the other side Sadra’s philosophy has been finally forced to accept the union of accident and its substance and refuses annexation of the one to the other. According to Mulla sadra’s thaught, indeed every object is just absolute being so substantiality and accidentality for it, has been reguarded by mind. So in such philosophy, you can’t belive substantiality and accidentality are achieved from objectivity but also you must accept they are subjective. This matter guids us to have a Kantian understanding from Mulla sadra’s thaught about substantiality and accidentality.
