Abstract
Following the presentation of analysis pertaining to the constant political tryout of that holiness while considering the spiritual status of Imamate being probably along with extraordinary affairs of hunman, this article has criticized the image of gradual evolution of religion in that era. The first part of article devoted to the statement of political activities of Imam Kazem –PBUH- analyzes these activities through the historical analysis, relying on rijali and tradition findings of an aggressive policy as well as a serious trial towards the public revolution and uprising. The second part is concerned with the of Imam Ali’s enterprise towards the statement of spiritual position of Imamate of Shi’ah relying on the sources not accused of exaggeration. The final part illustrates the concord of these two statuses in Shiite view and accordingly, it rejects the gradual evolution or the progression in Imamate from the political leadership towards the spiritual and super human one.
