One of the sources of knowledge is, theosophical discovery and intuition, including E’inolyaghin and Hagholyaghin intuition which has a fundamental strategic position in the Quran and narrations.- What are the factors for obtaining intuitive knowledge from the perspective of the Quran and narrations? 2- Does intuitive knowledge from the perspective of the Quran and narrations have epistemological validity? The paper’s output is based on the rational-narrative method, and reasons of obtaining discoveries and intuitions are: servitude, piety and purity, Sadr’s description, self-esteem, righteous deeds, intuition of existential poverty and sincerity with a preface which have been investigated in two parts with examples of theosophical revelations and observations.

Understanding the nature of Fatemeh Zahra (PBUH), this perfect woman, is both easy and difficult. It is easy because she has innumerable virtues and excellences, and difficult due to the inaccessibility of the depth of her character. The present paper addresses this issue with ontological, epistemological and sociological approaches. Relying on the knowledge from the holy Book and the Prophet’s progeny as well as theQuranic, prophetic, Alavite and imamate teachings, this paper expounds on the individual excellences of Fatemeh Zahra (PBUH) including the following: representing the proof of God for people, being Imam Ali’s partner, being a manifestation of the holy Prophet, the truth of Kawthar, general guardianship, and her devotion to and sincerity before the Sublime Being. This paper also deals with her social excellences such as being the daughter of the holy Prophet, the wife of God’s guardian and the mother of the immaculate Imams, and attempts to explain her social qualities based on her individual virtues. In the final section of the paper, attempt has been made to arrive at a relative, formal understanding of this woman whose creation and existence haveboth been heavenly, so that she becomes a role model to all those who long for perfection, yearn to encounter God, desire to have happiness and prosperity and seek success in all scientific, practical, individual, social and family areas.

Theory of leadership and guardianship is based upon Quranic verses and the traditions of the Prophet (PBUH) and the descendants of Imam Ali (PBUH); this theory can be understood and proved with an inner-religious attitude and it is a rational-epistemological necessity and guarantees the continuation of prophetic mission – which can be logically and clearly explained and defended with an outer-religious approach; this theory is also one of the requirements of ‘innate disposition’ and the inner truth of religious law. Therefore, the theory of leadership and guardianship is a sacred, primary and theologic theory rather than being conventional, secondary and jurisprudential. This theory has ideological, moral and spiritual aspects as well as dimensions related to legal rulings and jurisprudence and these are responsible for the interpretation of religion, defending religious law, performing God’s prescriptions, administering justice and ensuring mental and spiritual guidance; furthermore, leadership and guardianship complete the religion and the bounties of God and are the indication of the true Islam favored by God which is His promise and a divine order; the leader or guardian has the following real qualities: innocence, knowledge of religion, religious rulings, politics and spirituality and he should be appointed and have a high scientific rank. Relying on these, we can make a logical and historical critique of the competing theories like theories of electing, setting up a council, caliphate as political leadership and the lack of proof for tradition of the Imam and the leader. The present paper has attempted to investigate these from logical, historical and sociological perspectives.
