Abstract

Most of laymen, and sometimes specials and intellectuals have missed the sight of Imam Khomeini's Gnostic aspect because of his significant political face and high rank of knowledge in Fiqh. Not to deny the deep discerning and hard efforts made by scholars in this critical field, but very little work is done on Imam Khomeini's theoretical and practical Gnosticism and its basics and principles; though the Gnostic aspects of the both kinds was clear and discernible in his adventurous life for all those who admired him. Since in Imam Khomeini's point of view those pure springs of Gnosticism can only come from the high mountains of Quran and Muslim hallows, in this research we briefly reviewe his interest toward adages of Muslim hallows as one of the main basics of Islamic Gnosticism and analyze the process of Narration (quoting) and Acknowledgement (understanding) in his spoken and written words
