The knowledge of the Imam is one of the ancient issues of theological science. Sharif Radi has collected hadiths regarding the unseen knowledge of Imam Ali (AS) and the Shia Imams in the book 'Nahj al-Balagha'. Among some Islamic sects, including the Mu'tazilites, there are views that only accept the status of infallibility and unseen knowledge for the person of Imam Ali (AS). Ibn Abi al-Hadid, as one of the very important commentators, is among the Mu'tazilites who only accepted unseen knowledge and the status of infallibility for the person of Imam Ali (AS). However, Shia commentators of Nahj al-Balagha believe that in 'Nahj al-Balagha', there are indications and explicit statements regarding the qualitative nature of unseen knowledge. Ibn Abi al-Hadid is known for his fairness, at least regarding political issues after the Prophet (PBUH) among the Shiites. With this fairness and that theological perspective, he proceeded to comment on a book in which the discussion of the qualitative nature of the unseen knowledge of the Shia Imams is also mentioned. This has caused him, in commenting on parts of 'Nahj al-Balagha' concerning the knowledge of the Imams, to be caught in a conflict between the feeling of fairness and the requirements of this theological belief, sometimes being drawn toward this fairness and sometimes toward the requirements of that theological belief. Shia commentators of Nahj al-Balagha have also tried to challenge this dual behavior of his. The present article compares the views of Shia commentators and Ibn Abi al-Hadid regarding whether the knowledge of the Imam (AS) is qualitative or personal.

The Unseen Knowledge of Imam Ali( in Nahj al-Balagha A Comparison of the Perspectives of Ibn Abi al-Hadid and Shiite Commentators 1 Mohammad Ashayeri Monfared 2 Abstract The knowledge of the Imam is one of the ancient issues in the science of theology (Kalam).
The knowledge of the Imam in "Nahj al-Balagha" is one of the focal points of this dispute, which itself can be examined from various aspects; however, this article is organized solely to investigate this issue: in the book Nahj al-Balagha, from the perspective of Ibn Abi al-Hadid and the Shiite commentators, is the unseen knowledge of Imam Ali( considered a personal and unique matter belonging only to him, or is it a qualitative matter that is common among all Imams(?
This article will demonstrate what matters Sayyid Razi included regarding the Imam's unseen knowledge in "Nahj al-Balagha" in response to the Mu'tazilite views, how Ibn Abi al-Hadid intended to justify these hadiths through a Mu'tazilite theological lens, and what the Shiite commentators did in response to Ibn Abi al-Hadid's justifications and interpretations.
Although the word "Ahl al-Bayt"( does not exist in the version of "Nahj al-Balagha," Ibn Abi al-Hadid, in the commentary on Sermon 36, has quoted another sermon of the Imam( from other sources in which His Eminence, addressing the people of Nahrawan, mentioned these same themes along with the phrase "We are the Ahl al-Bayt" (cf.
