Divine knowledge and issues related to it have been given a lot of attention in the legacy left by Shia imams (peace be upon them). One of the issues related to the attribute of divine knowledge is God's self-awareness. Among the narrations in which the self-awareness of God Almighty is discussed, the negative answer of Imam Reza (peace be upon him) to Imran Sabi regarding"Being aware of God's self in himself and with himself". It is a strange saying that the commentators have stated the difficulty of its meaning and have struggled to analyze its meaning, that three major approaches can be seen in analyzing this narration; (1) Some of them have considered Imran's question as a kind of consciousness, the proof of which requires a defect for God Almighty, and (2) others have considered it as the absolute meaning of consciousness, and based on the inherent application of God Almighty, the negation of its proof related to the negation of the obligation resulting from the proof of this attribute for Almighty God, and (3) some others have basically considered Imran's question unrelated to God Almighty's self-awareness. In this article, the analyzes based on the two recent approaches are examined.
