The Commander of the Faithful, Ali, as the greatest social reformer and the highest leader of human society after the Prophet of God, has always introduced history as one of the most important human knowledge for the guidance and happiness of individuals and human society. In his speeches, he always invites the audience to study history and delve into it. This research attempts to achieve a correct and uncomplicated understanding of the issue about nature of history and its components" from his perspective, through a descriptive-analytical approach, by studying the words of the Commander of the Faithful in Nahjul-Balagha and other hadith heritage. Imam Ali, who looks at history with a broad, analytical and explanatory view, considers it to be law-based, repeatable, provable and realistic, and in addition to paying attention to the role of man and material things, he also pays attention to the role of God and non-material factors. He does not consider history to have a humanistic nature. For this reason, Imam Ali, in addition to stating the role of man in historical developments, also refers to the role of God and supernatural affairs. He does not consider the structure of history to be accidental, but rather considers it to be law-based and regulated. Therefore, in his statements, he explicitly refers to the repetition of history. Also, in the opinion of Imam Ali, achieving the truth of its realization and recognition and how past events occurred is possible and demonstrable. |
