IMAMOLOGY_ FROM THE VIEWPOINT OF HISTORY & THEOLOGY
Abstract
According to the belief of the Shia Muslims, their Imams are
endowed with some superhuman qualities, such as knowledge of
the unseen, infallibility and miracles, etc. Shia believe in this. But,
history is a knowledge that is based on scientific methodology.
Therefore, instead of considering the superhuman perfections
associated with the Imams, it emphasizes the historical facts that
the youth are connected with human characteristics. On the other
hand, superhuman qualities are most preferred by theologians.
The most important issue in this article is how the supernatural
actions and miracles of the Shia Imams can be proved to be
natural and regular through a historical study.
