Summary/Abstract: Through the discussion of social credibility, Allama Tabatabai deals with the analysis of concepts and categories, among which are elements current in social philosophy that indicate his point of view on social issues. Employment theory is one of Allama Tabatabai’s significant views in the field of anthropology. This theory is cited by Allama Tabatabai in his works on philosophy, methodology of Islamic law and Qur’anic sciences as an explanation of the origin and causes of human social life. From the point of view of Allama Tabatabai, employment is the primary principle of social relations and it rules both in the relations of people with other beings as well as in the relations of people with each other. According to this principle, man wants only his own profit and uses other people and beings for his own interests. From the point of view of Allama Tabatabai, this primordial principle is one of the means by which God has provided man for life in This world and interventions in it during the stages of his perfection. However, if there is no factor like faith, this nature can lead man into injustice and violence
