Abstract

One of the most important intellectual currents against the Alavi government was the Bani Umayya, which Imam Ali has referred to as the "sedition ‎ the Bani Umayya"; therefore, it is important to investigate the intellectual foundations of the Omvian. The Muawiya's character, as the most important figure in the of Bani Umayya, has always been analyzed and studied by Muslim scholars and thinkers. This article tries to investigate and evaluate the themes of some of the letters Nahj al-Balagha, through the intellectual principles of Hazrat Ali, the Muawiya personality and his approach to the Islamic caliphate and sovereignty, so that the sedition can be avoided by obtaining cash criteria that are divided by Imam Ali to Muawiya.
