This paper has two parts. In the first part I will be attempting to explain and reconstruct the different versions of Siddīqīn arguments for the existence of God, according to Ibn Sīnā’s and Sadrā’s philo¬sophical schools and then to find two important issues in this regard. First it is important to scrutinize the similarities and differences of these two one-named arguments and second is to analyze the philo¬sophical or metaphysical principles or presuppositions in proving the existence of God in the mentioned versions. The second part of the paper is a comparative study of the above versions of the theistic proofs with the classic classification of the ar¬guments for the existence of god in western philosophy. In other words, I will try to study and examine if Ibn Sīnā’s and Sadrā’s argu¬ments can be classified as the cosmological or ontological arguments and to mention the weaknesses and strengths of both arguments.
