The nature of the Unity (waḥdat) of the Necessary Existence (al-wāǧib al-wuǧūd) has not been the subject of much contemplation, agreement, and consistent argumentation among Muslim philosophers as much as existence and the unity of the Necessary Existence. Muslim philosophers have enumerated numerous types of unity, but in the matter of proving the oneness of the Necessary Existence, they have not left the nature of the unity silent. Sometimes they have specified the nature of that unity, sometimes they have referred to it, and sometimes they have spoken about it vaguely and briefly. Nevertheless, through their discussions on negated attributes, one can indirectly gain a reassuring awareness of their view on the nature of the unity of the Necessary Existence. This paper, by logically analyzing the concept of unconditional unicity (waḥdat etlāghi), and reflecting on some of the statements of al-Fārābī, Ibn Sīnā, al-Suhrawardi, Sadr al-Muta’allihin, and Allāma Tabātabāī regarding the negated attributes of the Necessary Existence, has shown that the unconditional unicity (waḥdat etlāghi) of the Necessary Existence, although in its most complete interpretation, is mentioned in the statements of Allāma Tabātabāī, but traces of it can be followed in the views of four philosophers regarding negated attributes. Therefore, they can also be included in the list of those who argue for unconditional unicity (waḥdat etlāghi)- albeit at a lower level - and ultimately prove that the unity of the Necessary Being in their philosophy does not oppose monotheism in religious texts.
