Abstract
Despite the great fame the well-known Abbasid poet –Abu Nuwas- enjoys, his real character is covered in a misty cloud. One of the vague aspects of his character is his religious and political tendency in a way that his poems carry the features of both atheism and belief in GOD and the Judgment day. From a political perspective, he is an advocate of Abbasid government, and at the same time a shiite and an Alawis proponent. The current article tries to discuss view points of researchers in this field and finally, using poems and historical points related to AbuNuwas's life and thoughts, introduce him as a shiite poet and an advocate of Ahl –al -Beit(PBUT).

Key words: AbuNuwas, Shiite, Ahl-al-Beit, religious fanaticism
