Abstract:
In the present article, by utilizing the two concepts of 'paradigm' and 'political strategy', we have explored the thought and behavior of Hashimi currents in a theoretical dimension after the Ashura uprising. Furthermore, by looking at the effects of Ashura on the Hashimites, the belief-political paradigm belonging to the Imamiyya and also the political paradigm related to other approaches have been examined. Under the two main paradigms, the 'Alawi-Fatimi' approaches with the tendencies of the Imamis, Hasanis, and Zaydis; 'Alawi-non-Fatimi' (Hanafis); and the 'Abbasid' approach have been investigated. Subsequently, these three approaches have been measured with indicators such as: political thought; struggle against the regime/struggle for the regime; open/covert struggle; reform/revolution; and the method of communication with other approaches.
Machine summary:
The movement of Imam Baqir (AS) and His clandestine struggle also took place through scientific and cultural activities, the transmission of narrations, and the formation of theoretical fields, which from two aspects were considered a political weapon against the regime; first, it was in line with the general policy of training sincere, capable, and comprehensive forces, and second, He was considered a representative of a type of silent struggle against the pillars and ideas governing the regime; for example, one can point to His efforts in rejecting the views of the Murji'ah, who were often the facilitators of the continuation of Umayyad tyranny.
[14] 2-3 Open struggle/Covert struggle: Due to the tyrannical nature of the political and social structure, the formation of open struggle was naturally not possible; based on this, the struggle of Zayd ibn Ali was initially a semi-underground movement using covert struggle methods, which subsequently emerged rapidly and continued in a revolutionary form.
Imam Sajjad(a)'s avoidance of entering political conflicts; the lack of weight and equality of the positions of other claimants, such as the Abbasids and the Hasaniyyah, in comparison to His Eminence; his seniority among the sons of Imam Ali(a) at that time; and the rumor of jihad and courage, placed Muhammad ibn Hanifa at the center of gravity of socio-political movements among the Hashimites.
