Abstract

The fact that the intellectual precisions of Muslim philosophers are always coupled with immense contemplations about the Quranic verses and traditions is something no researcher doubts about. Ignoring this fact and focusing only on their intellectual contributions (as is done in most academic centers and works), may however lead to the negligence or even denial of the attention they paid to revealed texts.  Zinoozi is among the philosophers who have paid much attention to the implications of religious texts in their philosophical discussions. He has made profound investigations and deep contemplations about the Quranic verses and traditions. He has made his philosophical principles and opinions consistent with religious texts. He has sometimes explained the religious texts in an unprecedented way. This is visible throughout his works and discussions including his ontology, anthropology, and theology. This article studies the relation between religious texts and Zinoozi's theistic opinions on main issues.
