Another work that I got at @maarefhekmeya from #ShaykhShafiqJaradi is the taqrirat of his classes on #BidayatalHikma of #Tabatabai - he is one of the rare #ShiiUlema in #Lebanon with a serious critical interest in #MullaSadra and the possibilities of #IslamicPhilosophy today ImageImage
But it’s a shame that #ShiiUlema on the whole have yet to embrace academic footnote culture - and the book needs an #index - still it’s better than most expositions of #BidayatalHikma 2/
One would also like to see a more critical engagement - many of us share a criticism of the efficacy of #Tabatabai in this work 3/

#AllamaTabatabai (d. 1981) works #Usul_e_falsafeh #BidayatalHikma and #NihayatalHikma are similar responses to materialism and working out the scope for #metaphysics and the life of the mind #ShiiTheology #kalam_jadid 3/
