With an exceptional aptitude for scholarship, Kashani soon rose to become one of the most prominent Islamic scholars in the Safavid era, parallel to his father-in-law, the celebrated philosopher Mulla Sadra. His scholarly pursuits spanned a wide array of disciplines, including jurisprudence, theology, Qur’an and hadith commentary, philosophy, and mysticism.
