The Active Intellect, and its role in the epistemological and ontological realms of the universe, is a fundamental issue in Islamic philosophy that has long been a subject of extensive discussion and differing views among divine philosophers. In this regard, Ibn Sina held that human knowledge (acquisitive perception) at all levels is dependent on the emanation of universal forms and intelligibles by this intellect upon the rational soul. He also attributes the actualization of human knowledge to this intellect. From Mūlla Sadrā's perspective, the Active Intellect possesses an independent existence relative to the human rational soul. Mūlla Sadrā describes the Active Intellect as the agent of the elemental world, finding meaning in the elemental world through its correspondence with it. This research employs a descriptive-analytical method and comparative approach to investigate the epistemic functions of the Active Intellect from the perspectives of Ibn Sina and Mūlla Sadrā. It aims to reveal the intellectual commonalities and distinctions between these two divine philosophers in explaining this issue. Ibn Sina primarily emphasizes acquired knowledge and the Active Intellect's role in bestowing intelligible forms upon the soul. In contrast, Mūlla Sadrā by highlighting the concept of direct knowledge, argues that the human soul, upon reaching the stage of union with the Active Intellect, attains direct knowledge and perceives truths directly and without mediation. In other words, for Mūlla Sadrā, knowledge is not limited to acquired knowledge, but also includes direct knowledge, which represents a higher and more complete level than acquired knowledge.
