The basis of Imam Ali (AS)'s ideas is merely on the model of sobriety. The dual reality of sobriety, namely sobriety as a "method" and sobriety as an "insight" will be formulated with the balancing and symmetrical nature sometimes in the middle and sometimes on the side. Through using Tashkik theory, the dual understanding of sobriety in relation to the calibration of phenomena and the clarifying the meaning of sobriety as well as its conceptualization for the useful and effective usage in society and politics will be provided. The present paper argues that sobriety is a legitimate framework in Imam Ali's (AS) thought that is targeted on avoiding extremism and on the path of Tawhid. The three elements of rationality, religion, and morality will form sobriety as insight. Considering these three elements in a continuous and gradual manner, sobriety will be regulated as an insight. These three elements are the three ontological, the integral and indivisible components of sobriety in Imam Ali's thoughts.
