An Inquiry into Substantial Motion or the Flowing Unit in the Category of Substance

Muslim philosophers preceding Mull a Sadra, generally denied substantial motion. Mulla Sadra in his Transcendent philosophy, however, developed a sophisticated analysis of substantial motion. His view of this issue is unique, in which he employs some of the requisites of movement to establish substantial motion. This kind of motion plays a pivotal role in Mulla Sadraʹs system of philosophy. The author in this article tries to provide a clear picture of substantial motion by explaining some requisites of movement such as "distance", and by analyzing the flowing unit in the category ot substance. Criticizing arguments revolving around the idea that motion needs a subject, he rejects such a need. At the end, the article puts the arguments for substantial motion in a new classification.
