So, he tries to refer the change of the world of objects to the relationship of material beings with each other, and he responds the issue of change by the God’s active knowledge, and graduation in existence, and inherent simplicity of the Supreme Being. Finally, he offers a distinct interpretation of imprinted forms which is close to Mulla Sadra’s theory of undetailed knowledge as detailed unveiling. He says absolute perfection of God demands that, with the undetailed knowledge, all the forms are known for the Supreme Being in a detailed and distinct manner from each other. This article tries to investigate and criticize Lahiji’s attempt to solve the issue of change in God’s knowledge of variable particulars with the help of some philosophical foundations by using a descriptive and library method.   UR - https://jitp.ut.ac.ir/article_89188.html L1 - https://jitp.ut.ac.ir/article_89188_6db5d26bbf3362910158ecd2af130701.pdf ER -
