The determination of the cognitive foundations of a thinker takes place in a variety of conditions. The structure of political thought is one of those conditions. The firmness of the universal thought of a thinker on his cognitive foundations and frameworks is such that some scholars consider the history of political systems and thought as the history of identifying cognitive systems. The status, limits and borderlines of demonstrable reason among the sources and means of knowledge have been the source of various branches in theology and political philosophy. Given that Ayatollah Javadi Amoli is one of the well-known thinkers of the Islamic world, the main question in the research is that, how the cognitive requirements of Javadi's demonstrable reason are determined in his political theory? The hypothesis of this article is that, equating of the demonstrable reason and religion in the political thought of Ayatollah Javadi Amoli, with an emphasis on the complementary role of the revelatory source, has led to the convergence of reason and revelation in response to the current socio-political problems. Using a desk-research and documentary method, with a content analysis approach, this paper seeks to prove its claim. Research findings indicate that Javadi's politics is a demonstrable politics, which has considered the definitive achievements of empirical reason, the faculty of imagination and abstractional intellect in the field of politics as part of the religious orders, and eliminates its intrinsic shortcomings with the revelatory politics
