al-Aḥsā'ī, Shaykh Aḥmad

Japanese: アフサーイー(英語表記)al-Aḥsā'ī, Shaykh Aḥmad
al-Aḥsā'ī, Shaykh Aḥmad
Born: 1753. Ahsa
Died in 1826. Founder of the Shaikh sect, a branch of the Medina Islam Shiite sect. Influenced by the philosophy of Mulla Sadra, he gave a metaphysical meaning based on his own cosmology to the idea of ​​the Imam (a religious leader who descends from the bloodline of an Islamic prophet), which is the fundamental principle for the existence of Shiite sect. He claims that the Imam is the active agent of creation and a manifestation of God's will. In order to make such a metaphysical interpretation of the Imam possible, he added new interpretations to Islamic traditions, which led to criticism from Shiite conservatives and suppression by the government of the time. His ideas later had a major influence on the religious movements Babi and Bahai that arose in Persia.

イスラム教シーア派の一分派シャイフ派の始祖。ムッラー・サドラーの哲学の影響のもとに,シーア派存立のための根本理念であるイマーム (イスラムの預言者の血統をひく教団指導者) の理念に,独自の宇宙論に基づく形而上学的意味づけを行なった。イマームは創造の能動因で,神の意志の顕現であると主張する。このようなイマームについての形而上学的意味づけを可能にするため,イスラムの伝承などに新しい解釈を加えたので,シーア派の保守主義者たちから非難され,時の政府から弾圧された。彼の思想はその後ペルシアに起った宗教運動バーブ教およびバハーイ教に大きな影響を与えた。
