Abstract

Since monotheism is the most fundamental principle of Islam and the foundation of its knowledge, and with a correct knowledge of monotheism, we achieve a precise cosmology, and knowing God through the language of his special saints helps us to know him as much as possible, so It is important to examine and understand the monotheistic passage of Fadakiyyah's sermon, which was delivered at a critical historical moment .In addition to deep knowledge of theology, this passage has deep layers of meaning that are usually neglected in the analyzes and have been investigated without considering the relationship of this passage with the entire sermon and its discourse atmosphere. In this research, the method of discourse analysis based on the operational method of  PDAM which is designed based on Islamic insight, was chosen as the analysis method, and the purpose of using this method is to obtain the obvious meanings and implicit and hidden meanings of the text, as well as the unsaid beyond the text. In this method, the monotheism of the sermon has been examined and analyzed in five structural, semantic, communicative, discourse and meta-discourse spaces, and all the effective components and aspects have been considered in an analysis, and in the final analysis, the result was obtained that Ḥaḍrat Zahrāʾ's character is an infallible and transhistorical personality, and the monotheistic part of the sermon is a part of Hazrat's analysis of the event in Fadakiyyah's sermon; Therefore, in the monotheistic phase of the sermon, in addition to the deep knowledge of monotheism, it explains the atmosphere of the competing discourse and the topic of conflict and the scope of the discourse and depicts the realization of monotheism in the realization of the Imamate flow.
