This study looks at Mulla Sadra's attempt to reconcile the three major forms of knowledge in Islamic philosophical discourses: revelation (Qur'an), demonstration (burhan), and gnosis or intuitive knowledge ('irfan). In his grand synthesis, Mulla Sadra bases his epistemological considerations on a robust analysis of existence and its modalities. For Sadra, in knowing things, we unveil an aspect of existence and thus engage with the countless modalities and colours ofthe all-inclusive reality of existence.
