In the narrative sources of Shia, many texts can be found, and even in some cases in the limit of tawatur, which indicate the imamate of twelve imams. "Faisal Noor", a contemporary Wahhabi writer, in his book "Imamate and Text", has claimed that the texts of Imamate are invalid due to their conflicts with many other traditions. In a part of this book, he considered nonawareness of Imam Reza's companions about his successor as well as the quarrel of some members of the Eighth Imam's household with him as being in disagreement with the texts of Imamate, and, in this way, after denying the Imamate of Hazrat Reza, viewed lack of texts of Imamate in Shia narrative sources. Using the descriptive-analytical method, while proving the existence of Imamate texts from foreign sources, this article aims to criticize this point of view and has reached the conclusion that the ignorance or doubt of some of Hazrat Reza's relatives and friends about the issue of Imamate lies in political and material factors as well as religious doubts, not lack of imam texts.
