Abstract

Issues related to death and the events that will occur in the Barzakh and the Day of Judgment are among the topics that have always occupied the minds of divine thinkers. Mulla Sadra is one of the greatest Muslim thinkers who has provided evidence to prove the physical resurrection and has tried to present an evidential and philosophical interpretation of the relevant verses and narrations. Inspired by religious statements and considering the principles of Sadrism, Professor Hassanzadeh Amoli has proposed the theory of the evolution of the Barzakh and has proven their evolution in the world of the Barzakh from various aspects, including the manifestations of God to humans in the world of the Barzakh, intercession, the evolution of death, the immortality of the inhabitants of hell, and some hadiths. In the present study, it was proven that, considering the complete actuality of the deceased person and the lack of the possibility of talent in him, philosophical problems are still relevant, and Professor Hassanzadeh Amoli has not provided an answer to them. The cited hadiths also do not prove the claim in question in terms of documentary and evidence, and the theory presented in this regard is internally inconsistent and contradictory in some respects.
