Abstract

This essay first divide God’s attributes into real and relative. Next, it explains two kinds of real attributes: pure real attributes and relative real attributes. Still next, it propounds a principle of Avicenna’s philosophy: “each essence which is not subject of change, its real attributes do not change”. And by attention to the point that knowledge of variable particulars entails the change of the knowledge itself, it explores the matter whether Necessary Being has knowledge of particulars. Keywords
