    1. philosopher
      • c. 1599, Bahāʾ al‐Dīn ʿĀmilī, کشکول:
        این که معاد تنها روحانی است. این گفته از آن فلاسفه‌ی الهی است که معتقدند انسان فقط نفسی ناطق است و بدن آلتی بیش نیست که نفس ناطق آن را به کار می‌برد و جهت تکامل جوهر خویش بکار می گیرد.
        īn ki ma'ād tanhā rūhānī ast. īn gufta az ān-i falāsifa-yi ilahī ast ki mu'taqid-and insān faqat nafsē nātiq ast u badan ālatē bēš nēst ki nafs-i nātiq ān rā ba kār mē-barad u jihat-i takāmul-i jawhar-i xwēš ba kār mē-gīrad.
        That the Resurrection is only spiritual. This saying is from the divine philosophers who believe that the human being is only a rational self, and that the body is no more than a device for the rational self to use and to apply for the sake of perfecting its own essence.
        (Classical Persian romanization)
