Abstract
The present study aims at exploring the foundations of mystical knowledge in Arba‘een march. The research method is descriptive-analytical and it shows that whatever plays a role in Arba‘een needs to be recognized, including recognition of the six following items: reason, religious law (Shar‘), nature, habit, convention, and oneself or self-knowledge. Arba‘een march is a religious and rational practice. This great event is in line with reason, religious law (Shar‘), nature, convention and habit. Arba‘een march is confirmed by the Quran, argument and mysticism. It is, for wayfarers, the field of wayfaring, and for the religious people, it is practicing the Sharia law, and is the assistant for people of purification. The people of Sharia, self-purification and truth, each can enjoy their special privileges from this march in proportion to their souls’ capacities.
