The historical narrative is considered as thoughts squeeze that express firstly the writer’s orientation and secondly reveal an attempt to tackle a cultural image. It also document the era that it belongs to. So, the issue is not mere words that the author write them down, rather, it is more than that. Thus, it is considered the first reference and source of the historical event when it cannot do without it.
Therefore, researchers were highly interested without along time. Weli Bin Ne’mat Allah Al Ha’iri followed this career who cares too much with narrative following the ancients’ approach in this respect. He was interested with the narratives relating to the prophet Mohammed ( p.b.u.h.), his brother Imam Ali( p.b.u.h.), and the two prophet’s grandsons; Hassan and Hussein( p.b.u.t.).
