Aba Abdillah al-Husayn (AS) has inspired influential political, cultural, and social discourses, both during his lifetime and throughout subsequent centuries; this is true both in his time and in the far future. In this context, he focuses on the principle of human dignity, which, in his view, is a condition for walking the path of Imam Husayn (AS). The objective of this research is to formulate a psychological analysis of the principle of human dignity and a psychological model of it in the discourse of Imam Husayn (AS). Using a descriptive–analytical method, this study examined lexicographical sources, works related to Imam Husayn (AS), and psychological literature on self-esteem, a concept closely related to human dignity. The study revealed that Imam Husayn's (AS) discourse includes four main elements of human dignity: foundational, cognitive, motivational, and behavioral. The first element is human dignity, which serves as the foundation for the remaining components and is derived from the Qur'an. The second element is cognitive, referring to self-dignity and the avoidance of humiliation, as articulated by Imam Husayn (AS). This component emphasizes self-dignity and resistance to humiliation, achieved through cognitive awareness of one’s capacities and cognitive persuasion. The third element is inspirational, underscoring the motivational role of Imam Husayn (AS) in advancing anti-oppressive movements. The final element is behavioral and includes actions such as responding kindly to people’s rudeness, not humiliating others, refraining from discriminating between servants and other members of society, and allowing people to take their own paths.
