Ghadir as Narrated by Ahlulbayt (as)

Ghadir as Narrated by Ahlulbayt (as)

What happens when the story of Ghadir Khum is told by those closest to the Prophet? This volume presents the event of Ghadir through the voices of the Ahl al-Bayt (ʿa), preserving how the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his Family) affirmed Imam Ali’s (ʿa) spiritual authority and responsibility for the community.

About the Book Authored by Sayyid Ali Husaini Milani, this concise study gathers prophetic traditions (hadith) and reports transmitted within the Ahl al-Bayt (ʿa) to illuminate the meaning of Ghadir (Ghadir Khum). Rather than offering a general survey, the book focuses on how members of the Prophet’s Household—through sermons, statements, and carefully preserved narrations—present the declaration made at Ghadir and its implications for guidance, loyalty, and leadership. The approach is devotional yet source-conscious: narrations are contextualized, key terms are clarified, and recurring themes—gratitude, obedience to God, and fidelity to truth—are brought to the fore.
