Research on the Political Concepts of the Prayer of Nudba

This is an investigation made on the political concepts of the Prayer of Nudba, which has been, in the Imams, the doctrine for a method to make one’s friends, acquaintances and followers aware of the problems of life and to indicate corruptions or perfections of the society as well.The Imams, by using this prayer, wanted to make us understand all the social and political difficulties of the people and also what we should do in the future. Therefore, this prayer in addition to its being the weapon of the prophets and the believers, it is considered one of the sources for the Islamic political system.So, in this article, we have tried to deal with the political dimension of Nudba prayer which is one of the old directions and has been of interest to the Shiites because it accounts for the presence of Divine Authorities form the first prophet, Adam to the last Argument of God.In this article, although the bases for a desirable Islamic society and an undesirable political society has been discussed, the most important subject has been introduced to be an ideal political society, a society that the Imam of Time will com to put up, a society for which all the prophets endeavored to establish. Therefore, we con say that the prophets of God, from the beginning of creation of man came and were on a mission to reach that kind of society as close as possible and step by step nearer to the ideal society. So, we come to the conclusion that such an ideal political society will not be realized without the presence of Imam of Time; and in this writing we have tried to deliberate over this subject.
