Summary/Abstract: Throughout history, religions that aim to bring happiness to humanity in this world and the hereafter have invited people to faith in order to achieve these goals. Some people accepted this invitation and shaped their lives according to the principles of faith, while others did not accept it and lived a life unaware of the peace that faith would offer them. The concept of faith has always preserved its existence wherever there is faith and people. The issue of faith has been questioned independently of the truth of knowledge and reason by theologians of different religions, especially Christian theologians of the Middle Ages. Since their research on faith did not satisfy people, people turned to new searches. Along with the religion of Islam, faith has become one of the most important truths that people turn to in order to achieve happiness in this world and the hereafter. Although there was no debate about faith when our Prophet was alive, Hz. Ali the events that took place among Muslims during the reign of Ali, faith became a subject of debate in the Islamic society. The issue gained a political dimension because the statesmen of the period were also party to these discussions. Different sects have emerged in the Islamic society due to the different narrative and rational evidence put forward about faith. The aim of this study is to reveal the place of faith in the human mind, the issue of the great sin that causes the disintegration of the Islamic society, and the nature of the relationship between deeds and faith.
