Shia Islam. 2. Basic Features (2. Ed.)

The vocation of this study is to awaken people by presenting the main characteristics of Shiite thought and faith and to remind them of their God-seeking nature. “The Faithful Perception of Being”, “the Origin of Knowledge”, “universal Authenticity of Shiite Thought and Belief”, “the Religion deeply rooted in human nature” and “what Prevents People from proper understanding?” are some main topics of this volume.

This volume focuses on the main characteristics that form the very core of the thinking of the Twelver Shia to understand its essential worldview. Although not all characteristics and themes of Shia Islam can be named and described with the necessary distinction, its basic characteristics are presented here. I hope that God, the Blessed and the Exalted, will open our minds and our eyes, and that He will guide us, enlighten our hearts, and make the truth clear to us so that we can follow it.
