Semantic analysis of God's numerical unity in the statements of Imam Sajjad (Peace be upon him)

The proof of the real unity and the negation of the numerical unity of God is emphasized by the Quranic verses and the narratives, and the philosophical proofs such as the rules of the "United Essence" and "Mere Existence" prove it. But in this regard, Imam Sajjad(as) in twenty-ninth
prayer of Sahifah Sajjadiyyah attributed numeric unity to God: "O God, numerical unity is for you". In explaining this statement and explaining the mechanism of its compatibility with rational and narrated reasons, various interpretations have been presented. The present article, using descriptiveanalytical method and paying attention to other traditions of Ahl-Al- Bait(AS), has compiled, elaborated and explained the most important interpretations presented and evaluated them to explain the selected commentary. According to the chosen viewpoint, the mere using of
number for God is not problematic; what is problematic is a limitation that sometimes stems from attribution of numbers to Divine Essence; separation between the two statements of "third of the three" and "forth of the three" in the Qur'anic verses can be explained in the same way;
Almighty Allah, at the same time has personal unity and collective unity, and is present and appearing in all aspects of existence. According to this explanation, the statement of Imam Sajjad(as) refers to the use of numerical unity on Allah's Essence, which indicates the collective and
inclusive presence of Allah in all beings.
