It is hard to understand that the quality of the implications of this narration, on the correctness of taqiyyah in the books of hadith jurisprudence. It seems that Imam Sadiq (a.s.) in this narration very closed head presents an argument that has been accepted by the audience. In order to understand the meaning of this narration of Imam Sadiq (a.s.) it is beneficial to use the method of violation of Grice’s principle of cooperation. Its purpose is to understand more meanings of this narration. In order to understand the implicit meanings, this research has focused on the principle of empathy of Imam Sadiq (a.s.) with the companions of Hadith. A comparative study between the conditions of Imam Sadiq (a.s.) and the companions of Hadith, with the story of Hazrat Yusuf (a.s.) shows that Imam Sadiq (a.s.) sought to express three important issues. First: correctness of Taqiyyah, second: stating that the allegation of stealing hadith is wrong and third: announcing the victory of the movement of the Companions of Hadith in the revival of the Prophetic Sunnah.
