Religious beliefs form a part of religion and are depended on rational and narrative proofs. Every given spot in epistemic sources of narration would lead to the authenticity of narration. It is, therefore, necessary to study the knowledge-carrying fundamentals of narrative proofs and the views in the field. This research uses a descriptive-analytical method to achieve the purpose. Supporting non reductionist approach of evidence is the most important achievement of this research. According to this approach, the evidence is an independent source of knowledge and may produce knowledge for those learning to make their beliefs reasonable. The narrative proofs pertaining to the pure`s saying deed and confirmation is the most significant and prominent case of the testimony. Therefore, we can emphasize the knowledge-carrying state of the narrative proofs. Even according to the reductionist approach and the denial of knowledge-carrying state of the evidence, one may prove the authenticity of the proof of the validity of the narrative evidence, that in the case, the evidence is merely a carrier of the knowledge derived from revelation and sense which their authenticity has been proved in epistemology.
