Abstract :
Anthropology is one of the most important aspects of understanding a school. In Islam, anthropology has a special status. There are many verses in the Holy Quran that are about human. Moreover there are a lot of prayers and Hadiths that, following the Holy Quran, bear important anthropological information. One of the relevant sources is Sahifa Sajjadiya that states delicate and deep issues about man, his existential levels and features, his natural potentialities and weaknesses. Mystics, in the light of this knowledge have discussed anthropological subjects in their works. The study of their ideas in this regard reveals the impact of the teaching of Ahlolbait (bput), especially Sahifa Sajjadiya, on the mystics and Sufis.
