TRAGEDY OF FATIMA DAUGHTER OF PROPHET MUHAMMED
Fatima, daughter of the Prophet of Islam, did not enjoy this life for long and passed away only few days after the demise of her father. She was not sick; rather, grief and sorrow snatched his soul away. This book sheds light on certain historic circumstances as well as on the individuals who were bitter enemies of her husband, Ali ibn Abu Talib, and who were jealous of his merits and accomplishments. The author wrote this book initially in response to another written by someone who cast doubts about certain very serious and shameful facts which the author of this book details. He cites numerous references (more than three hundred and fifty) written by historians and biographers from both br...
Book of Ashura Rituals
This book "Ashura Rituals" has come as a response to those questions that have become numerous and continuous, perhaps because some still oppose these rituals and attack even the processions of lamentation in various ways and using different means, consistently describing them as manifestations of ignorance and backwardness. Indeed, some have claimed that anything that causes harm or pain to the body is religiously prohibited, even if it's self-inflicted harm. What's even more astonishing and troubling is that there are those who attempt to convince people that this is exactly what His Eminence Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei [may his shadow be prolonged] says, even though what His Eminence [m...
An Islamic Perspective on Management
Imām ʿAlī (as) said: "I command you and all my children and members of my family and whoever my letter reaches to fear God (have taqwā), keep your affairs in order, and maintain good relations among yourselves." أُوصِيكُمَا وَجَمِيعَ وَلَدِي وَأَهْلِي وَمَنْ بَلَغَه كِتَابِي، بِتَقْوَى الله، وَنَظْمِ أَمْرِكُمْ، وَصَلاَحِ ذَاتِ بَيْنِكُمْ... Sayyid Jaʿfar Murtaḍā al-ʿĀmilī aims to convey Imām Jaʿfar al-Ṣādiq's (as) advice on effective management and leadership. Imām Jaʿfar (as) emphasized the importance of prioritizing critical matters while not neglecting minor ones, comparing this balance to a river managing its flow to avoid overflow. He highlighted the need for effective delegation, daily planning and review, rewarding good work, and consulting advisors for well-considered decisions, as well as the importance of disciplining negligence.

Kāmil Al-Ziyarāt
Note from the Author about the Book: In the Name of Allāh, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Praise is due to Allāh who is worthy of praise and has authority over it. He guides the people toward it (praising Him) and rewards them and compensates them for it – an increasing praise which does not vanish nor end. His might is exalted and His sovereignty is great. He is exalted, His names are sacred, and His blessings are continuous. Everything is humiliated in His Awe and is humble before His Ruling and Divinity. One cannot describe His characteristics and the imagination cannot fathom knowing Him. He is as He has described Himself: the God, the One, the Only, the Eternal, He is not begotten nor...
Nationalism, Transnationalism, and Political Islam
This book sheds light on how Hizbullah has transformed religious rituals and supernatural narratives in order to mobilize the Shi’a community. The author examines how Hizbullah has altered its institutional structure and reconstructed Lebanese Shi’a history in a manner similar to that of nationalist movements. Through fieldwork and research, the project finds that Hizbullah has centralized around the concept of Wilayat al-Fagih (Gaurdianship of the Islamic Jurists): in essence, the absolute authority of Iran’s Supreme Leader over the Shi’a “nation.”

The Vanished Imam
In the summer of 1978, Musa al Sadr, the spiritual leader of the Muslim Shia sect in Lebanon, disappeared mysteriously while on a visit to Libya. As in the Shia myth of the "Hidden Imam," this modern-day Imam left his followers upholding his legacy and awaiting his return. Considered an outsider when he had arrived in Lebanon in 1959 from his native Iran, he gradually assumed the role of charismatic mullah, and was instrumental in transforming the Shia, a quiescent and downtrodden Islamic minority, into committed political activists. What sort of person was Musa al Sadr? What beliefs in the Shia doctrine did his life embody? Where did he fit into the tangle of Lebanon's warring factions? What was behind his disappearance? In this fascinating and compelling narrative, Fouad Ajami resurrects the Shia's neglected history, both distant and recent, and interweaves the life and work of Musa al Sadr with the larger strands of the Shia past.
