This study aims to reveal the philosophical content of the ideal of social justice in the legacy of the fifteenth–sixteenth-century thinker Fakhr al-Din Ali Safi (1463–1533) through the categories of “adl,” “insaf,” “haqq,” and “zulm.” The works Rashahat Ayn al-Hayat, Lata'if al-Tawa'if, and Adab al-Ashab were examined through historical-semantic, hermeneutical, and axiological analysis. Rashahat was interpreted as a normative text characteristic of the hagiographical genre, distinguishing between its historical basis and the layers of normative memory constructed by the author. It was established that “adl” represents the proper standard of relations, “insaf” their internal and personal dimension, “haqq” the normative foundation upon which they converge, and “zulm” the violation of this order. The negative (restraining oppression) and positive (protection, service, and benevolence) dimensions of justice, as well as their manifestations at the individual, community, and governmental levels, were demonstrated.
