'''''Dalāʾil al-imāma''''' (Arabic: {{iarabic| | '''''Dalāʾil al-imāma''''' (Arabic: {{iarabic|دَلائِل الإمامَة)}}, is an Arabic book written by [[Muhammad b. Jarir al-Tabari]]. It contains the biography, [[miracle]]s, and virtues of [[lady Fatima (a)]] and the [[Infallible Imams (a)]]. There are doubts about the name of this work and its ascription to al-Tabari. ''Dala'il al-imama'' is published for several times by several publishers. | ||

For a long time it was thought that Muhammad b. Jarir b. Rustam al-Tabari, the Shi'a author of ''[[al-Mustarshid fi l-imama]]'', was the author of this book. But there is evidence in the book that shows it is not written by him. Therefore, some scholars believed that there was another Muhammad b. Jarir b. Rustam - whom they titled as [[Muhammad b. Jarir al-Tabari al-Saghir|al-Saghir]] (the Junior) – that authored the book. | |||
On the contrary, some believed that basically the book is not written by Muhammad b. Jarir, not al-Kabir (the Senior) nor al-Saghir (the Junior). The reason the book was attributed to Mahammad b. Jarir al-Tabari was a false impression from some [[hadith]]s in the book which start with "Muhammad b. Jarir al-Tabari said …." They added that ''Dala'il al-imama'' is written by an unknown author who lived in early 5th/11th century and was contemporaneous with [[al-Shaykh al-Tusi]] and most probably lived in [[Baghdad]]. However, probably, due to his contemporaneity, al-Shaykh al-Tusi and [[Ahmad b. 'Ali al-Najashi|al-Najashi]] did not mention his name in their [[Rijal]] books. | On the contrary, some believed that basically the book is not written by Muhammad b.
