مأساة إبليس عند صادق جلال العظم : رؤية نقدية

Abstract EN

The research deals with the idea of what Dr.

Sadeq Jalal al-Azm called “The Devil’s Tragedy” by reviewing his vision of this subject, and criticizing .It was found through this that Dr.

al-Azm does not start from a belief standpoint, but rather from a Marxist, not religious, standpoint.

Therefore, he dealt with the story of Satan as a myth, not a fixed truth.

This is based on the method of the empirical doctrine in taking sense and experience as the only way to knowledge.

It is a false basis; He is unable to explain some facts that are not perceptible to the senses, and it turns out that he was not genuine in his presentation of the story of Satan as a tragedy similar to the stories of tragic heroes in international plays.

He depended in the sayings of some Sufis as a justification for his extremist sayings based on the idea of oppression.

The research has proven the falseness of the oppression lie, and that Iblis was freely chosen and obedient, not forced, and he denied what the writer believes in the right of the monotheistic Satan, from his point of view, not to prostrate to Adam; The superiority of his fiery element over Adam's clay element.

And that he was with the angels, he has their merit and status, whether he was one of them or not.H e also proved the error of what Dr.

al-Azm understood, based on the idea of reparation, from the claim that the divine command and the divine will were contradictory, and that Satan deserves a fate other than expulsion and cursing, and that God- God forbid- was characterized by cunning and mockery of his innocent servants.
