Abstract
Mohagheq Khafri on the issue of divine knowledge in detail with reasons such as the absence of changes in knowledge due to changes in the known, God's total perception and the unity of the relationship of time to Him, the belonging of divine knowledge to details in the two stages of summary knowledge before creation and detailed knowledge after God's creation and originality with regard to variables, tries to provide a correct interpretation of God's knowledge in variable details. With his criticisms, he also criticizes the view of some philosophers such as Ibn Sina, who attribute taql to God, and deserves takfir. In this research, which is organized with the aim of examining the opinions of Mohaghegh Khofari in theology in detail and with a descriptive and analytical method, an attempt has been made to examine the criticisms of Mohaghegh Khofari's opinions. The findings of this research are that Mohaghegh Khofri's reasons in proving divine knowledge have many problems in detail, and his problems do not apply to philosophers in rational science. The result is that the opinions of Mohaghegh Khofri in the discussion of divine knowledge are not acceptable.
