| Content | Since Khums is an issue with which a Shi‘ah Muslim is faced at least once
in a year, the need for a simple and, at the same time, comprehensive
book on this subject has been felt in our community since a long time.
And therefore, when this booklet was published in 1984 in Vancouver,
it was, al-hamdu lil-lãh, very well received.
In 1990, I revised and expanded the previous editions. A few pages
were added dealing with the verse of Khums (in Chapter One), and also
the usage of Khums during the days of the Prophet and the Imams of
Ahlu ’l-Bayt (in Chapter Four). These additions will give the reader a
brief look into the history of Khums. Obviously, the size and purpose
of the booklet did not allow me to deal with this aspect of Khums
comprehensively. A chapter has also been added at the end to express
my thoughts about some of the moral and “political” sides of Khums.
Finally, some practical issues related to Khums were also added in
Chapter Two for those who live in the West.
I hope this edition proves more useful to the members of our
community.
HEAVILY SUBSIDIZED BY WWW.WABIL.COM | This book addresses issues on the status and standing of women, their social, political, and cultural activities, housewifery, art, freedom, lifestyle, natural and acquired rights, and other issues from Islamic point of view.
According to Islam, women and men alike possess the lofty status of humanity because they are both equally human.
The fact that noble Adam ('a) was able to understand the Names and explain them was due to his unique genesis as a human and men and women are equal in this genesis. In general, all extolments in the Quran and Hadith regarding humans encompass both women and men. There is no verse in the Quran that reproaches women for being women.
Therefore, according to Islam and the Quran, men and women are equally human, they are no different in worth, and they possess common responsibilities in managing the society.
HEAVILY SUBSIDIZED BY WWW.ISLAMICTHOUGHT.CO.UK | This work contains a number of speeches, articles, books, and question-and-answer sessions of the erudite professor, Haḍrat Ayatullah Muhammad Taqi Misbah Yazdi (may his sublime presence endure), which have been compiled, edited and published by the author on the subject of Wilayat al-Faqih. We believe that in the current status of our society, wilayat al-faqih constitutes the central pillar of Islam, and its safety contributes to the splendor of Islam and Islamic laws and values in the society. As such, we have decided to elucidate this theory, support it academically and logically, and enlighten the general public, particularly the young generation of our country who probably know very little about this theory and its ramifications, and thus discharge a small part of our religious duty. Likewise, we have tried to deal with all the aspects of this theory to address the subjects which we find significant and controversial. However, things like the brevity of content and the readers’ patience and the time that they have been taken into account as far as possible.
