Abstract:Infallibility is considered as one of the important elements in the matter of prophecy, without paying attention to it, the subject of prophecy will be ruled out. Literally, infallibility means "holding back" and "forbidding" and from the idiomatic point of view, it means a soul that prevents prophets and saints from committing sins, errors and mistakes. . The existence of this steadfast queen in the eyes of the prophets is a divine gift given to them according to their merit. Due to the difference in the spiritual position of the prophets, their infallibility is different; In such a way that the first prophets enjoyed more complete infallibility, and among them, Khatam al-Murslin (Prophet of Islam) has the most complete level of infallibility.The issue of infallibility has been the subject of serious attention by Muslim theologians; Just as Adliyyah theologians and Imamiyyah theologians accept the infallibility of the prophets as a divine gift and consider it compatible with the free will of the infallible; However, Mu'tazila theologians, while emphasizing the authority of the infallible, attribute the queen of infallibility to the era after the prophets.Allamah Tabataba'i, while accepting the Imamiyyah view, interpreted infallibility in his own way. This Neo-Sadrai philosopher examines infallibility based on his theological and philosophical standards and considers it as an inherent characteristic of prophecy.Keywords: infallibility, prophecy, Allamah Tabatabaei, God's grace, God's prophets, Islamic theologians, God's saints.
