Abstract
“The issue of obligation and free determination had been subject to polemics due to religious concerns. One group defended carb-riyya on the basis of the absolute sovereignty of God. While others argued the idea of indetermination in terms of divine justice. After explaining and critizing these thoughts, Molla Sadra gave expla-nation to the opinions of the Ash'arites on the subject. And then he formed the basis of a new theory called “theory of ahl-i yakin” while getting inspired by the words of Ali b. Ebu Talib who says “there is neither determination nor tawfiz, indeed it is between these” So to speak, human acts are related to both human beings and God.
