Abstract
By looking at the works of Shakyism, especially the works of its main founders (Sheikh Ahmad Ehsaee and Seyyed Kazim Rashti), traces of exaggeration by them in the five principles of religion can be seen, which have become a favorable platform for their other beliefs.
This paper with a library method, after reviewing the status of pure Imams in the works of Sheikh Ahmad Ehsaee and Seyyed Kazem Rashti, using the Holy Qur’an and the authentic works on the Imams’ traditions and proving the veracity of attribution of exaggeration of these two Shaikhism leaders, seeks to criticize their claim and prove that not only is the creation the exclusive attribute of God, but also the pure Imams have never considered themselves as the creator. Moreover, they have introduced themselves as the humble servants of God to people by avoiding the believers in the Lordship (Robubi’yat) and creatorship (khaleghiyat) of people except God.
