Abstract

Being centeret in Aristotle philosophy and followed by that in Farabi’s philosophy revolted to existence in Mullasadra’s transcendent philosophy. Accordingly the main issue of this research is evolution explanation in philosophy issue from Being to Existence. In the next level, the issue factors of this evolution is noted. The result of this comparision study is although Farabi could take some distance from Aristotle’s commentator comment variety (about Aristotle’s quadruble posision) by being qua being selection, but he didn’t find a way to reality of existence through interconnectendness meaning of existence and essence. Then mullasadra presented different explaning of philosophy subject by exploitation of primacy of existence fundamental doctrine, existence graded unity, and thereupon identity and unity adoption of existence and essence, and passing through Avicenian existence of essence distinction and the reality of existence separation of it’s concept, therefor he putup the reality of existence as philosophy subject and this way philosophy subject moved from being to existence. Although in sadra’s philosophy, through primacy of existence and ideality of quiddity, often being and existence (in philosophy subject issue) use in a sence and both indicate to the reality of existence.
