The present paper analyzes the paradigm of resistance theology in the realm of governorship on the basis of Nahj al-Balaghah. The studies show that, in the field of resistance theology, the practical tradition of the Commander of the Faithful (a) as the brilliant governor in Islamic society is based on two principles, self-resistance and other-resistance, which on the one hand by inviting leaders as senior managers in a society and on the other hand calling for people to patience and resistance is recommended as the most important fundamental component of governing and statesmanship and has been analyzed as a theoretical-theological framework in this article. The approach of research is qualitative and is based on contextual analysis of Nahj al-Balaghah which ends up to discover the strategic functions of resistance theology in planning of governorship systems.  The results indicate paradigm of resistance theology, with emphasis on resistance and persistence of the structures of administration and people in a society, leads the power and governorship towards systematic persistence and institutional resistance; as resistance, in lieu of a critical variable in confrontation with outer and inner crises, fortifies political constancy and legitimacy of governorship. The achieved result is to re-create a modern paradigm in governorship which emphasizes on defining again the relations between resistance and power in the realm of governorship and while composing the theological and political principles, presents practical strategies to settle a justice-centered and ethical governorship. At the end, resistance theology is suggested as a theoretical basis and a guideline for development of massive policy-makings in Islamic statesmanship
