Abstract

Based on a new approach to the holly Qur'an and to the behavior of the wise, the present paper studies political taghiyyeh (act of concealing one's own belief). After elaborating on the concept of taghiyyeh briefly, personal and socio-political taghiyyeh are explained. With respect to personal taghiyyeh, there is a discussion over the obligatory precepts of the types of taghiyyeh based on the Five precepts, and over the situational precepts. Verses and traditions concerning political taghiyyeh were brought into consideration in the case of political taghiyyeh.
