Recognizing the nature of the Imams (PBUH) , are important for Shiites and their followers. Imamte period of Imam Musa Kazim (PBUH) is one of the most important periods of the era of the Imams (PBUH). The Abbasid government monitored the politics and logic of the Alids, including Imam Musa Kazim (PBUH), and created turmoil in the Shiite community by the emergence and diversification of groups and movements. The Alids wanted to take the leadership of the community and some of the Prophet’s family claimed to be Imam. This treatise is designed to answer this question. (How was the encounter of the Imam of Kazim with the groups and movements of his Shiites?) And the results obtained are based on the following: Imam Musa Kazim (PBUH) did not rise upright with the observance of the principle of taqiyah against the unjust and oppressive Abbasid rule. , And to maintain the lives of the Shiites and Alids, they did not support the movements that did not work out, and approved the uprising and the right struggle against the injustice of the government. In contrast to the overwhelming deviant flows, they were isolated from it and prevented from thinking of Shiites in the future, such as “Vaqifa”, and they explicitly prevented their deputy from choosing their successor and deputy. In response to the Shi’a dispersal, they were able to communicate through the proof of disloyalty of the claimants of Imamate. They gathered a large number of Imam Sadiq (PBUH) followers and supporters around him. And for the stability and protection of Islam, the mandate of our Imamate was expanded. Eventually, Aaron Abbasi considered Imam Musa a threat to his rule. Then he captured, then martyrdom Imam Musa Kazim, so his Imamte period ended.
