The issue of intelligence is one of the fundamental issues of human and one of the few issues that human beings is faced in all areas. It plays an essential role in various scientific fields, industries, individual and social life measures, etc. Intelligence is defined as a set of diverse general talents and abilities including learning and understanding things, adapting to the environment, utilizing past experiences, analyzing, applying sound judgment, and reasoning and finding the logical solution in the face of different situations and problems. However, so far the true nature of intelligence has not been introduced by scientists and they have limited themselves to its definition, function and types. The fancy in Sadra’s philosophy is degraded intellect. Fancy replaces reason in relation to matter and imagination and perceives meanings and generalities when they added to details and instances.
