# '''Tawhid (Oneness of God)''':{{main|Tawhid}} Knowing God and acknowledging the fact that from pre-existence to post-eternity, He exists and is Necessary Existent. The concept of Tawhid acknowledges positive attributes of God such as infinite power, knowledge, and existence as well as rejecting His negative attributes such as ignorance, inability to do anything, or imperfection. This also implies believing in the fact that God's attributes are the same as His essence, and that He has no additional attributes to His essence. | # '''Tawhid (Oneness of God)''':{{main|Tawhid}} Knowing God and acknowledging the fact that from pre-existence to post-eternity, He exists and is Necessary Existent.

# '''Justice [of God]''':{{main|'Adl}} Knowing that God is Just and Wise. This means that He does not do any wrong and does not abandon any proper act. God is not content with the wrong humans do. Therefore, humans hold the absolute responsibility for their actions, whether good or bad. | # '''Justice [of God]''':{{main|'Adl}} Knowing that God is Just and Wise.

# '''Prophethood''':{{main|Nubuwwat}} Acknowledging the prophethood of the Prophet [[Muhammad (s)] and what has been revealed to him. However, there is a disagreement on whether this principle applies solely to generally acknowledging what the Prophet (s) has said as revelation or if one needs to acknowledge the revelation in details. Some Twelver Shi'a scholars also deem it necessary for one to believe that the Prophet (s) was [[infallible]], and he (s) was the [[khatamiyyat|last prophet]]. | # '''Prophethood''':{{main|Nubuwwat}} Acknowledging the prophethood of the Prophet [[Muhammad (s)] and what has been revealed to him.

# '''Imamate''':{{main|Imamate}} Acknowledging imamate of the twelve [[imams (a)]]. All Twelver Shi'a theologians agree on this as it has been considered one of the two required principles of Shi'a. All imams are infallible and guardians of religion. They are responsible for guiding humans toward the truth and everyone needs to obey them. This concept also includes accepting that [[Imam al-Mahdi (a)|The Twelfth Imam (a)]] is alive and in hiding, but one day he (a) will [[Reappearance|reappear]] with the permission of [[God]]. | # '''Imamate''':{{main|Imamate}} Acknowledging imamate of the twelve [[imams (a)]].

# '''Resurrection''':{{main|Resurrection}} This principle implies that humans will be resurrected one day in front of God, and their good and bad actions will be judged. All Muslims believe in physical resurrection which suggests that the body to which humans will be resurrected is physical. | # '''Resurrection''':{{main|Resurrection}} This principle implies that humans will be resurrected one day in front of God, and their good and bad actions will be judged.
