Mutahari and His New Theology

The present article investigates Mutahhari's "new theology". First, we present Mutahhari's view of theology, according to him, the divine station of God implies that He does have a direct influence upon things, in order words, His creation must be understood as the creation of a divine ordering system. In his new theology (influenced by Judaism and Christianity), God is considered a blind and deaf force, which has no influence upon thing, human destiny being predetermined and unchangeable.
