چکیده
The problem of environmental crises, ethnic violence, and the disconnection of spirituality from the public sphere stems from a reductionist view of the relationship between humanity, nature, and the sacred. This research, employing a descriptive-analytical method and re-examining Sadrian Transcendent Philosophy, raises the following question: How can the root causes of environmental crises, ethnic violence, and the disconnection of spirituality from the public sphere be explained through the reductionist view of the relationship between humanity, nature, and the sacred? Furthermore, based on Sadrian Transcendent Philosophy, what model can be derived for transitioning from divine wisdom to global peace? The findings indicate that in Mulla Sadra's thought, human beings as 'God's vicegerent' (khalīfat Allāh) are not only not superior to nature, but possess a graded (tashkīkī) existence and an ontological connection with the natural world. The sacred is not considered separate from nature but is diffused throughout all levels of creation (takwīn). Accordingly, global peace cannot be achieved without reviving 'divine wisdom' (al-ḥikmat al-ilāhiyyah), in which humanity, nature, and the sacred are unified within a hierarchical existential order. This approach can replace exclusively anthropocentric or nature-centered paradigms and lay the groundwork for a bio-founded ethics, ontological justice, and a lasting peace based on the intrinsic dignity of all beings.
