Imam Sajjād's Scientific Conduct against Obliquity:A Case Study of Monotheism Pathology

The infallibles conducts, namely their documented traditions, are among the reliable references used in the historical records of Islamic thought. The beginning of the Umayyads and the change of caliphate to kingdom is considered among these important historical eras in Islam. In this period, Shia imams took specific steps to preserve and revive Islamic thought against obliquity based on their divine missions. One of such heating obliquities in the era of Imam Sajjad was the alteration of the issue of monotheism and formation of allegorical and illustrative obliquities. To confront such obliquities, Imam Sajjad implemented cultural and scientific measures in a way that the government of the time would not get sensitized. The present paper is to investigate Imam Sajjad's approach toward this issue in the most peak period of the history of Islam using Sahifeh Sajjadiyah. Using a content analysis model, the issue of monotheism as one of the political and religious issues in Sahifeh Sajjadiyah was analyzed, so that the degree of Imam Sajjad's opinion influence on the Islamic society of the Ummayads period is determined, and his strategy in persevering the concept and position of monotheism is proven. Controlling the socio-political situations of his time, Imam Sajjad used the method of praying to make a kind of pathology and to redefine the issue of monotheism as one of the pillars of Islamic society.
