Abstract

The verse MUBAHALA is one of the most controversial Quranic verses. The MUBAHALA tradition was traditionally common among the Semitic tribes and there are some references to some cases of it in scriptures other than the Honorable Quran. The MUBAHALA mentioned in the glorious Quran, belongs to the story of NAJRANi CHRISTIANS' dialogue and debate with the Holy Prophet (peace with him) which finally, because of the CHRISTIANS refusal of accepting the Prophet's call, the two sides agreed to MUBAHALA and to pray God to distinguish the truthful from the liar. This MUBAHALA did not occur, for the CHRISTIANS withdrew; but the Prophet's household accompanying him in this occasion, provided a vast field for kalami polemics and disputes between different Islamic sects. Most Quranic exegeses used this verse to prove the virtues of the Prophet's households (p.w.h.t.) and the Shi'a, additionally, used it to prove other believes such as infallibility and immediate imamate of Imam Ali (peace with him).In this paper, the kalami viewpoints about the verse MUBAHALA are examined. At first, the word "MUBAHALA" is vocabulary and terminologically, defined. Then, the historical story of the Prophet's MUBAHALA with the NAJRANi CHRISTIANS is reported on the basis of authentic historical and traditional sources. The main part of the article takes on to examine the kalami understandings of the verse about Shi'i viewpoint to prove the virtues of the Prophet's household and Imam Ali's priority to caliphate. The rival viewpoints also reported and examined.
