"Hūrqulya" (meaning "solar body" in ancient Persian) is one of the symbolic world names, and Sheikh Ishrāq is recognized as the first philosopher who introduced this term into Islamic philosophy. "Hūrqulya" has been embraced by the philosophers of Illuminationism and followers of Transcendental Wisdom. Sheikh Ahmad Aḥsāī, in his works, extensively uses this term to the extent that some consider him its originator. On the other hand, some researchers have found its precedents in the works of Sheikh Ishrāq and have brought it to the attention of scholars. However, fewer have explored its existence in the works of the Transcendental Wisdom scholars, including Mullā Ṣadrā. In this article, irrespective of philosophical and theological debates about accepting or rejecting the existence of the symbolic world, we delve into the presence of the term "Hūrqulya" in Transcendental Wisdom.
