چکیده:
Islam is a value-creating religion; it has fought against deviant and incompatible values with human dignity and established a system of divine and human values. Hazrat Ali (AS) is considered the supreme interpreter of religion and the Quran, whose soul is intertwined with the teachings of the Quran and whose life is in accordance with it. Given the aforementioned point and emphasizing that Alawite teachings are the most expressive, stable, and objective teachings related to the dimensions of religion and life, and that Nahj al-Balagha is the most important document that can report Alawite thought, the present research discusses anti-values in the field of political issues from the perspective of Nahj al-Balagha. At the beginning, it follows politics from Hazrat's perspective, and after that, it addresses two political anti-values, injustice and hypocrisy, which have had more manifestation in Nahj al-Balagha. Of course, it is not claimed that all political anti-values mentioned in Nahj al-Balagha are included; rather, to the extent possible, the most important matters related to the mentioned subject, which are spread in the statements of Imam Ali (AS), have been presented in the form of main headings, and then his other references have been included in the discussion as sub-topics.
خلاصه ماشینی:
(Nahj al-Balagha, 1387: Sermon 200) From the perspective of Hazrat Ali (AS), politics and government are not the goal; rather, they are a means.
(Delshad Tehrani, 1380: 83-96; Salehi Najafabadi, 1363: 69) An examination of Nahj al-Balagha shows that in the political thought of Imam Ali (AS), lines of invalidity have been drawn against important anti-values such as injustice (zulm) and hypocrisy (nifaq), which will be addressed in the following sections.
3 Despotism in opinion and view: If a ruler or an official, in their political and governmental decision-making, acts self-centeredly, solely because they are a great and elder person among the people, they have committed oppression and betrayal against them (Ibn Maytham Bahrani, 1375: 2/285); because according to the belief of Hazrat Ali (AS), if officials, and especially the leader of a nation, undertake an action without consultation, and this lack of consultation causes opportunities to be lost and tasks to not be performed well, this is considered a form of tyranny and betrayal against the people of society.
(Nahj al-Balagha, 1387: Letter 53) The persons consulted do not only include the official members of the government and the politicians of society; otherwise, there would be no need for such a reminder; because every government has its own specific political advisors, and there would be no reason for the Hazrat to recommend so much to leaders to consult with the people and listen to their bitter words of truth (Ibid).
