Abstract
The immaterial origin of perception and the immaterial existence of the self is the basis emphasized in some hadiths, including the hadith of Ahliljah. Emphasizing the immateriality of perception and its origin, this hadith contains arguments presented in the dialogue between supporters of materialistic view (an Indian physician) and immateriality of perception and its origin (Imam Sadiq). According to this hadith, perception has an immaterial truth and the source of perception or the self is also immaterial. On the one hand, in the three schools of Masha, Ishraq, and Hikmate motaalieh, with regard to the immaterial characteristics of perception and percipient, arguments have been made in favor of immateriality of soul, and on the other hand, philosophers of the mind, with regard to the qualitative characteristics of perception, have provided explanations in favor of the separation of perception. The immaterial approach to the soul is the common point of the three religious approaches with regard to the hadith of Ahliljah, Islamic philosophy and philosophy of mind. The common point of all three approaches is the use of the intuitive method in presenting philosophical arguments for immateriality of perception and its origin. In this research, the entity of perception and its origin is discussed according to the hadith of Ahliljah and with regard to evidence from philosophical psychology (Elm-o-nafs).
