Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this article is to explain the quality of creation and examine the essence of space-time based on Sadra'i philosophy and its comparison with physical propositions.
Methods: The present descriptive-analytical article explores two issues. One is from epistemological point of view and the other is from ontological point of view.
Results The first looks at the true essence of space-time from Mulla Sadra and Einstein’s point of view in terms of ontology. The second explains their opinions on the essence and objectivity of space-time from an epistemological perspective. Finally, findings showed they believed scientific propositions are not practical and perceptible in terms of epistemology. Indeed, having good mathematical and rational perceptions of space-time are necessary to explain its structure and essence. According to this research, space-time is created from primary matter and is a kind of secondary monster or fundamental particle, and the reason for its expansion rate is its intrinsic movement. So dark energy is the essence of space and time.
Conclusions: Because, in the first place, space-time is imperceptible in nature, and secondly, imagination-driven mathematical perceptions and rational perceptions resulted from cognitive faculty are more accurate than sense perceptions. However, when it comes to ontology, cosmologists have not yet developed any justified priori or posteriori model about the true nature of space-time. Though, according to Mulla Sadra’s bases, space-time is a type of secondary matter completed from the primary matter mode; furthermore, he believed space-time has its origin in the cosmic primary matter.
