                       that  the  issues  of  moral              Realism

                       philosophy cannot be found in             Although Mulla Ṣadrā did not
                       a single, detailed, and coherent          provide      an      independent

                       cite  the  opinions  of  moral            it  seems  that,  based  on  his
                       philosophy in general and moral           perspective,  it  is  necessary  to
                       ontology (moral realism) and its          separate  epistemological  from

                       particular,  it  is  necessary  to        aforementioned  definitions  of
                       consider their related expressions        moral  realism.  For  example,

                       and extract their viewpoint by            whether  moral  judgments  are
                       analyzing      and     examining          true  or  false  is  related  to  the
                       them. On one hand, to deduce              epistemology  of  ethics,  but
                       the issues of moral realism,  it          whether moral values are real,

                       is  not  enough  to  study  and           regardless  of  the  moral  agent,
                       examine  a  specific  work,  all          is  a  completely  ontological

                       epistemology,  and  politics  have        viewpoints that consider ethics

                       been  published  in  a  limited           to be dependent on the feelings
