Abstract

 In Shiite culture besides the knowledge of monotheism, prophecy and resurrection, no principle reaches to the importance of the principle of Imamate.
Sadr al-Mutallin as a Shi'ite theologian, based on reasoning and intuition has studied the dimensions of the Imamate problem in his most important philosophical and theological works.  Based on his philosophical foundations, he studies the position of the Imam in the hierarchy of being, explaining the relationship between God, the perfect man and the universe on the basis of the essence and essence of existence, and using an ontological approach based on the rule of Ashraf, ascending and descending arches.  And the substantive movement proves the necessity of the Imam's existence and introduces the Imam through the virtues of the right to the possibilities and determines his position on the basis of the continuity and continuity of the divine grace.
This research attempts to describe and explain the necessity of Imamate in transcendent wisdom based on its philosophical and ontological principles with a descriptive-analytical approach.
