From Imam Khomeini's point of view, contrary to Ibn Arabi's opinion, knowledge of the prophets of rules does not constitute juristic reasoning, because the prophets discover the truths based on awareness of what is in the knowledge of God or the Preserved Tablet - according to their ranks. Also, according to Imam, contrary to Ibn Arabi's opinion, abrogation does not mean discovering the error of the previous prophet, but the rule at the time of the previous prophet was in relation to the nation that the prophet ruled, and therefore, abrogation means discovering the limit of the previous rule, not removing absolute rule. From Imam's point of view, the fixed entity of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) is a collection of all the fixed entities, including the possessors of prophethood for law-giving, and the fixed entities of the possessors of prophethood for law-giving are the manifestations of the fixed entity of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), and in the same way, the external entities of the possessors of prophethood for law-giving are also the manifestations of his identity. According to Imam's interpretation, each period of prophethood periods of each prophet is like a circle, and the prophet of that period is also the Unicity of :union: of that period, and all the circles are the points of the circle of Seal of prophethood, and the Messenger of God (PBUH) is also the seal stone of this circle of Seal of prophethood. Imam believes that Seal of the Prophets is the manifestation of the greatest Name of God, and because it manifests in the form of Seal of the Saints from his Unseen aspect, Seal of the Saints is the manifestation of this complete Sainthood and one of the manifestations of Seal of the Prophets in the visible, therefore, in fact, Seal of the Prophets recieves from his manifestation. And in this sense, Seal of the Saints has no priority over Seal of the Prophets. Thus, the review, explanation and analysis of Imam Khomeini's Shiite reading - on the issue of prophethood - from Ibn Arabi's Fusus al-Hikam is the aim of this article.
