Minhaj al-karamah fi macrifat al-imamah, also known as Minhâjû’l-Istikâmah fî Isbâtû’l-Imamah, is a theological treatise written by a prominent Shia scholar Allameh Al-Hilli. Al-Hilli wrote his book for the sake of defending the Imamah, and created one of the most important pillars of Shia Islam.[1]
Author
Abu Mansur Jamal Addin Hasan Ibn Yousef Ibn Motahhar, also known as Allameh Al-Hilli, was a theologian.[2] He is best known for his writings on Islamic jurisprudence and Islamic theology.[3]
Importance
The Minhaj al-karamah fi macrifat al-imamah of Ibn al-Mutahhar al-Hilli, which was written for, or at the request of, the Ilkhan Uljaytu, is a statement of the Imami Shi'a doctrine of the Imamate and a refutation of the Sunni doctrine of the caliphate. The views of Allama Hilli was later refuted by Ibn Taymiyyah of Salafiyyah in his Minhaj as-Sunnah an-Nabawiyyah.[4] In turn, some other books were written later, refuting the claims of Minhaj al-sunnah such as the Ibn Isa, Sayyed Seraj Addin Hasan, Ikmal Al-Mennah and the Kazemi, Sayyed Mahdi, Minhaj Al-Shariah.[5]
Commentary

In the fifth part, he refers to reasons for rejecting who knows himselves as Imam before ali. He finally rejects the reasons mentioned in proving Abu Bakr succession.[7]
