- Adalah (Justice): The Justice of God
- Nubuwwah (Prophethood): God has appointed perfect and infallible prophets and messengers to teach mankind the religion (i.e. a perfect system on how to live in "peace".)

Shi'a Islam - Additional doctrines
Main article: Additional Shi'a doctrines
Shi'a have many other doctrines that are shared with other Muslims, like wearing of the veil for females (Arabic: Hijab). However, some are seen as more predominently used by Shi'as, like "Dissimulation" (Arabic: Taqiyya), which is the dissimulation of one’s religious beliefs when one fears for one's life, the lives of one's family members, or for the preservation of the faith, and "Fixed time marriages" (Arabic Nikah Mut'ah). The two latter sometimes are seen as controversial practices.
