There has always been an interplay between the institution of family and political system. This study is aimed at examining and analyzing how familial competence was factored in during the process of selecting and appointing agents in Imam Ali (PBUH)’s government. The main research question is: what was the contribution of familial competence to the selection of agents in Imam Ali’ (PBUH)’s government? To answer this question, we have tried to study Koranic verses, hadiths and Imam Ali (PBUH)’s conduct with an inductive approach, and assess the results with the qualitative method of ijtihād. The research findings show that in Imam Ali (PBUH)’s government upbringing was considered an important factor along with individual qualifications. Furthermore, this study puts forward a criticism of individualism in contemporary politics and emphasizes the necessity of using the positive potential of familial competence in appointments. Thus, for the sake of meritocracy and correct regulation of political relations we certainly need to consider individuals’ upbringing along with other criteria of political competence and use the above-mentioned positive potential.
