Abstract :
Cosmology is one of the oldest philosophical issues that sages and thinkers have discussed and examined and each of them has said something based on their intellectual foundations and horizons. It is obvious that these two divine sages, each of whom has a special philosophical system and school of thought, must have a special point of view in this regard, and this article tries to express their answers to some of the basic questions of cosmology based on their philosophical foundations. In Mulla Sadra's system of existential skepticism, God's relationship with the world, the relationship of independent existence with existence, is a relational existence. There are degrees and doubts, and its degrees are different and distinct in intensity and weakness, priority and delay, perfection and imperfection, wealth and poverty, and what is in Spinoza's philosophy highlights the diversity of human existence and nature. "Nature, according to Spinoza, is the necessity of constant mutation and the inescapability of dependence among finite beings.
