In the evaluation of knowledge from the epistemological point of view on one hand such as fundamentalism, coherentism, and reliabilism, and on the other hand externalism and internalism have been proposed. The pure Virtue Epistemology theory was proposed by Linda Zagzebski. According to Zagzebski, contemporary epistemology is based on virtue ethics. By modeling moral virtues and their application in epistemology, she speaks of intellectual virtues, especially understanding and phronesis. From her views, contemporary epistemology has faced issues such as wisdom ignorance and understanding, focusing on certainty, monopoly of knowledge to propositional knowledge, confusion in the sense of justification, neglecting the role of free will, and lack of attention to feeling and emotion in search of knowledge. There are many critics on the pure virtue epistemology which can be categorized into three sections: first, internal critiques derived from epistemology itself, second, critiques derived from the philosophy of mind, and third, critiques derived from the philosophy of ethics. In this study, the question is whether the epistemological theory of pure virtue is capable of responding to these critiques and whether it has internal or external consistency. By turning the evaluation of knowledge from belief evaluation to the evaluation of agent-based belief and his or her characteristic and personality traits, Zagzebski finds a way to open up and seems to be successful in doing so. The research method of this discourse is Lakatos research program with regard to the central core and seat belts and positive and negative strategies.

The intelligibles are divided into primary, secondary philosophical, and secondary logical intelligibles. Mulla Sadra differentiates between the three according to the process of abstraction of general concepts from particulars as well as their position in the mind. Hajji Sabzevari, however, distinguishes between them on the basis of objectivity or subjectivity of prosody and ascription. On the other hand, Motahhari introduces another distinguishing factor, an ontological one, on the basis of Mulla Sadra’s theory of copulative and non-copulative types of existence. Studying Mulla Sadra’s and Hajji Sabzevari’s factors, the authors of this article prove that they refer to a single fact, and the ontological factor is the combination of the two. They also seek to analyze Motahhari’s criticisms of Mulla Sadra’s and Hajji Sabzevari’s factors in order to demonstrate that they are often irrelevant.

Allameh Tabatabai has repeatedly mentioned Etebar matters and wishful thinking and has put them in front of real things. Etebar matters are irregular ideas that are dependent on human will, but after their will, nothing is added to the outside world. Allameh Tabatabai believes that idealism - denial of certain perceptions according to reality - entails the arbitrary of all ideas and consequently, the irregularity and chaos of all human behaviors. This article, by rejecting the mismatch between an idea's intentionality and its non-dependence on man, has shown that the division of things into real affairs and Etebar affairs is not based on belief in realism and certain perception according to the reality and maybe idealists based on Allameh Tabatabai's foundations. We proved that even In Allameh Tabatabai's Interpretation of Idealism we can be logically idealists and at the same time divide things into Etebar affairs and real affairs.
