Abstract
Hossein Ibn Mansur Hallaj (244-309 Hijri) is one of the prominent figures in mysticism and Islamic Sufism, who his life, thought and especially the way of his Death has continuously been the subject of different and even contradictory views in the mystic history. In his speech and writings the thoughts of Oneness Of Being, more than all other themes, is appeared with coded and ecstatic expressions filled with ecstasy and drunkenness, up to the extent that his ‘I am God’ can be counted and considered as his most expressive thought of Oneness of Being. Hallaj was always denied by jurists and always was in conflic with them, due to the lack of his belief in superficial science and his believing in its un-adequacy to attaing the God. Hallaj’s thought was essentially different from the views of greatest scholars of religion; ‘the Oneness of Being’ was most major difference. This article seeks to review the influence of Hallaj opinions and ideas on the works of jurists and the jurists’ stances toward Hallaj. We also compare the views of advocators and opponents of Hallaj and then analyze the written subscription (Togih) issued by Imam Mahdi (AS) for Hussein bin Nobakhti.

Prevalence of Ibn Al-arabi’s gnostic teachings in the eastern lands of the Islamic world is not comparable to the Arab and West countries. In particular, the essence of his thoughts on being oneness and perfect man has been properly explained only by eastern thinkers, especially the Iranian Shi’ei. Feiz Kashani, a great Shi’ei theologian and Muhaddith, despite of some of his criticisms on Ibn Al-arabi’s ideas, accepts his principles of speculative Gnosticism, and explained Shi’ei thoughts based on his teachings. Feiz’s monotheistic attitudes and his other ideas, strongly influenced by Gnostic theoretical teachings and crystallized in his theological writings such as Principles of Knowledges (Osool Al-Maarif) and Hidden Words (Al-Kalimat Al-Maknoonah) have been discussed in this paper as far as possible
