Critique of Ibn Abi al-Hadid's views and explanations on the issue of "Ahl al-Bayt (as) socio-political guardianship" in Nahj al-Balaghah

The socio-political guardianship of the Ahl al-Bayt (as) is an inalienable right from God Almighty, which has been emphasized by the Holy Quran and the Ahl al-Bayt (as) itself, including the Nahj al-Balaghah. Despite the specificity and quality of Ibn Abi al-Hadid's commentary on Nahj al-Balabagh, in some cases of his commentary and interpratation, he has followed the path of injustice and has explained the orders of the Imam based on his doctrinal and jurisprudential principles. In this article, after providing basic services as well as theoretical and general principles, to explain the issue of a socio-political province of Amir al-Mo'menin against Islam has been made from the perspective of Ibn Abi al-Hadid. In the meantime, he explains the explanations that he gave about the order of the Commander of the Faithful (pbuh) regarding the rightfulness of the Imam in the matter of a province, as well as the distinction between superiority and the caliphate and other related matters. Then let us use the criticisms leveled at Ibn Abi al-Hadid about his explanations. The findings of the present study are the unfair judgment of Ibn Abi al-Hadid on the issue of the socio-political governorship of the Amir al-Mu'minin (as), which refers to the orders of the Imam in Nahj al-Balaghah. In this regard, he has turned a blind eye to the truth by insisting on the presuppositions arising from his beliefs and jurisprudence within his denomination. The purpose of this article is to explain the interpretations of Ibn Abi al-Hadid following the orders of Hazrat Amir (as) on the issue of the socio-political guardianship of the Ahl al-Bayt (as) and then to critique his interpretations. The method of this basic work is analysis and critique based on documents, which is done by referring to library books, reputable sites and related software.
