Type: Beliefs and Practices
Divine Justice is the realm of Ilmul-Kalam (Theology).
However, Murtaza Mutahhari approaches it from
philosophical view and answers some of the questions
that inevitably arises in the human mind. A troubling
question that atheists raise, for example, is the origin
and existence of evil vis-a-vis theistic notion of
Divine Justice. Mutahhari has used a paradox to put
into perspective the whole issue of free will and
predestination. He has elucidated the Shia position of>neither predestination nor absolute free will, rather
"the Divine decree and destiny which has willed the
human [to exist], has also willed his freedom of choice. In other
words, man is compelled to be free." Mutahhari's
matchless effort to unravel a complex ennui of Divine Justice places this work among the classics of
contemporary Islamic literature.
