Leadership in Islamic thought is based on the macro-theory of "nation" and it has defined the horizon of governance in the Islamic societies. Therefore, the issue of nation and nationalism has been specifically considered in the conduct of the Messenger of God (PBUH) and Imams (PBUT). The present research is to answer the question on what are the requirements for the realization of nationalism from the perspective of Imam Hassan Askari (A.S.).
Taking advantage of the descriptive-analytical method, the article investigates the requirements for the realization of nationalism as a central and constant thought in the interaction with various currents from the perspective of that Holiness. The findings of the research clarify that the essential components for realizing the process of nationalism in the conduct of that holiness include "peaceful coexistence along with affection and tolerance", "no obvious divergence with the caliphs", "developing solidarity and internal discourse among Muslims based on common Islamic principles", "Prohibition of heretics", "Negation of violence" and "acquittance of the extremists" led by the Divine Imamate. Imam’s emphasis as a religious leader on the issue of nationalism, theoretically and practically, can be considered as a strategic paradigm in developing a united nation in the current situation of the Islamic world.
