In this article, we review the main reasons of Muslim philosophers for denying the nature of the necessary being. First, by separating the three meanings of nature And three different interpretations of the originality of existence, We try to get a clear picture of the conflict. Then We mention the most important arguments for denying the nature of the necessary being And we show that most of these arguments were either based on the originality of nature or are based on a particular understanding of the originality of existence that is debatable. Finally, we show that according to the correct interpretation of the originality of existence The nature is determination of existence, and existence without determination has no meaning.Therefore, every being has a nature; Both limited and unlimited. However, because the necessary being is unlimited, its nature, which Which exists with the same existence, will be unlimited. Accordingly, there was no conclusive reason for denying the nature of the necessary being, but There is argument that necessary being  has nature. necessary and possible beings  have nature  in the same meaning.However, the referencce of nature is different in them.
 

Keywords: Existence, nature, originality of existence, originality of nature, necessary, possible
