Arguments on the gradation of infallibility is amongst important issues which can be expounded based on foundations and principles of Islamic philosophy and remove many of suspicions casted on the issue of infallibility. The current research is an attempt to investigate the nature of infallibility based on the philosophical theory of gradation of existence, which provides a different content of the issue of infallibility, through a descriptive-analytical method. Thus, firstly, the major elements and components of infallibility are extracted and then compared individually against the principle of gradation of existence. It was concluded that infallibility enjoys a gradational truth and therefore, each human being can possess a level of it depending on their existential capacity and the difference between the immaculate and the ordinary Man resides in the level of infallibility rather than presences or lack of this characteristic.
