Preface

By: Ayatullâh Al-Uzma Marashi Najafi (r.a.)
In the name of Allah the Beneficent the Merciful

After due Praise and Blessings, it should be said that this is one of the most beneficial books. It proves the veracity of Ahle-Bayt (a.s.) and speaks about the injustices inflicted on them. It is simple but sweet in style. Few books can match it on this count. Though it has been printed many times, its demand exceeds supply. Thus Agha Mirza Nasrullah Meherkhwan has decided to publish a fresh edition of this book and requested the humble slave to write a brief introduction, especially about the author. I have complied with his request, albeit briefly, due to my busy schedule.

Analysis of the History of Aale Muhammad (P.B.U.H.)

Imam or leader is the title given to a person who takes the lead in a community in a particular social movement or political ideology or scientific or religious form of thought. Naturally, because of his relation to the people he leads, he must conform his actions to their capabilities in both important and secondary matters.

As is clear from the preceding chapters, the sacred religion of Islam takes into consideration and gives directives concerning all aspects of the life of all men. It investigates human life from the spiritual point of view and guides man accordingly, and it intervenes on the plane of formal and material existence from the point of view of the life of the individual. In the same way it intervenes on the plane of social life and its regulation (i.e., on the plane of government).

Thus the imamate and religious leadership in Islam may be studied from three different perspectives: from the perspective of Islamic government, of Islamic sciences and injunctions, and of leadership and innovative guidance in the spiritual life. Shi'ism believes that since Islamic society is in dire need of guidance in each of these three aspects, the person who occupies the function of giving that guidance and is the leader of the community in these areas of religious concern must be appointed by God and the Prophet. Naturally, the Prophet himself was also appointed by Divine Command....

<p style="text-align: justify;">When Allah Ta’ala did Aqd (Marriage) of Maola of the Universe Ali (s.a.) and Syyedatun Nisa al-Aalameen Fatima Zahra (s.a.) on Arsh e Mo’alla, then Rasool Allah (s.a.w.a.w.) said: Today I got good news from Allah Ta’ala concerning my brother, son of my uncle and my daughter, and that is Allah Ta’ala has married Ali (s.a.) with Fatima (s.a.), and ordered the treasurer of Jannat Rizwan to shake Tooba Tree, so they shook it, due to shaking leaves fell down equal to the number of friends of Ahlul Bait (s.a.a.). Noori Angels (a.s.) picked up those leaves. When it will the day of Qiyamah, then they will hand over these leaves to them, and these leaves will be certificates of immunity to the Fire of Hell, whichever man or lady will get this certificate, he/she will be saved from Jahannam for the sake of my brother and my daughter.

Glossary of Islamic Terms

Pluralism is in vogue. As the Bangladeshi newspaper Dainik Janakantha editorialized in June 5th, 2001, “…it is the age of achieving freedom. It is the age of singing songs of triumph of pluralism over authoritarianism. It is the age of exception, the age of difference, and the age of proclaiming the victory of mankind and diversifying the sources of creativity.”1 Unfortunately, the current daunting reality does not endorse such a positive outlook. As I write, news has just come in of another suicide bombing in Iraq that killed two hundred people, leaving countless lives devastated, and further reducing any remaining element of trust in the country. How are Iraqis to reconcile their own internal religious differences while dealing both with military intervention by a foreign power and a civil conflict? It seems that hopes for a pluralistic religious society in Iraq are fading away. Across the world, the paradigm of hope has been replaced by many sentiments of pessimism. With today’s challenges, is there a hope for the survival of religious pluralism?

Intellectual Responses to Religious Pluralism

The decline of traditional values and beliefs is one of the major causes of cultural decay. The breakdown of traditional norms and mores has led to a loss of identity and sense of community within societies. This decline can be attributed to various factors such as globalization, urbanization, industrialization, and modernization. As societies become more interconnected and exposed to different cultures and ideas, traditional values may come under threat from foreign influences. Additionally, changing economic conditions and social structures have also contributed to the erosion of traditional values and beliefs. For example, the rise of individualism over collectivism has led to a shift away from communal living and shared responsibilities towards personal achievement and self-gratification. Moreover, the increasing emphasis on materialism and consumer culture has undermined spiritual and moral values that were once held dear by many communities. These changes have resulted in a weakening of social bonds and an increase in social fragmentation, which ultimately leads to cultural decay.

Why Cultural Decay?

It is a recognized fact that relating of stories is one of the best venues of making think and reform their ideas. And those true stories of important events in the past afford opportunities to readers not only to reform their ways of thinking but also uplift their moral standards.

The Holy Qur'an tells us about the prophets who were asked to relate to their people stories of past events (ref: 7:176) so that they may think. Parables are also mentioned in the Holy Book so as to warn people against pitfalls in their ways of life as weel as to provide examples of virtue and vice. The aim has been to bid people to do good and forbid them from doing bad.

I have endeavoured in this booklet to relate stories extracted from the past history, adding explanatory notes and relevant quatations form the Holy Qur'an and ahadith.

It is hoped that this will serve to acquaint readers to the true Islamic values as well as in uplifting moral standards where needed. It is also aimed at helping lecturers in schools and in public gatherings.

Readers are requested to accord due respect to this booklet in view of the Holy quatations contained in therein. Also to help us in circulating it as as to spread the benefit as widely as possible.
