One of the important and applied subject-matters in the social life is the kind of the interaction and mutual behaviors among humans. The Quran and the Household of the Prophet (s) as the pure Islamic sources are full of valuable teachings on the method of interaction of humans with each other in different issues. Instructions and correspondences of Imam Reza (a.s.) as an infallible Imam which is attributed to the God and inspired from the divine sciences, is a solid and firm support for cognition and practicing these divine teachings.This research intends to respond to this main question: What are the main components in social interactions inspired from the letter of Imam Reza (a.s.) to Abdolazim Hasani (a.s.).What has been analyzed in this article includes cases which have been collected through a problem-oriented attitude reference to the Quran and creditable traditions of the infallible Imams in particular the instructions and practical behaviors of Imam Reaz (a.s.), though in presenting these components, this research does not limit itself.

According to Shi’ism, the infallible Imams are neither the founders of the divine religion, nor do they play any role increasing or decreasing it. As religious authorities, they are supposed to elucidate the truth of religion and Prophet Mohammad’s true tradition and seerah, which has been deliberately or unknowingly subject to different interpretations in the course of time and in different periods of history. This might have driven the prophetic seerah out of its true direction. This research, which has been inspired to investigate the genealogy of a moral teaching, dealing with the tradition of family in Razavi seerah, purports to examine the roots and sources of Imam Reza’s statements in this regard and demonstrate how the issue of family, which is currently a complicated, important, and to some extant ambiguous topic, is reflected in his words. The requirements to establish a family and the kind of relationship that can consolidate it and create a dignified and appropriate life are of concern for many people these days. In this research, we examine the reflections of this issue in Imam Reza’s language and seerah, and more importantly explore the sources of imam’s data in this respect, or its genealogy. We try to answer this question by investigating the Imam’s quotations and comparing them with those of his predecessors. The hypothesis of this research is that Imam’s primary motivation for citing the words of the Prophet and other religious leaders has been to revive the Islamic traditions and promoting religious values and also to gain support for his remarks and comments, which is necessary to make one’s words more effective and persuade the audience in promoting and explaining the religion.
