Imam Khomeini, the leader of contemporary Muslim world, through his theological and mystical works presented a solution to man’s egoism and self-centeredness.


Imam Khomeini maintains that man in its essence has strong inclinations towards monotheism and truthfulness


From Imam Khomeini viewpoint, the key solution to this concern is the fitrah, which means natural disposition and origination.


This solution has been supported by Holy Quran which says in its one of the verses that “the nature (framed) of Allah, in which He hath created man.”


Imam Khomeini has stressed that the human soul is by nature and instinct inclined to believe not only in the principle of monotheism, but to follow all truthful doctrines also.
