Imam Ali's Guardianship in the Quran

GholÂmhosein Zeinali Page 7

The Quranic verse 5:55, which is known as the Guardianship Verse (Ayatul Wilaya) among Imamite exegetes and theologians, is one of the most important verses that has been revealed regarding the guardianship of Amiralmu’minīn Imam Ali. Because of the specialimportance of this verse, Muslim theologians have paid special attention to it and numerous works have been written on it.Imamite exegetes and most Sunni exegetes agree that the cause ofrevelation of this verse was an instance in which Imam Ali(Pbuh) gave alms to the poor while bowing down in prayer. The author of the present article has carefully examined the cause of revelation of the verse (5:55) here. To this end, while the author will mention the successive transmission of the story as the cause of revelation of the verse about Imam Ali according to Imamite and Sunni scholars, he will also enumerate some narrators of the hadith from among the Companions. Then, from among the 60 documents regarding the hadith in question,2 documents from ibn abi Hātam and ibn Marduyah will be examined. Views of exegetes through centuries regarding the revelation of the Guardianship Verse as well as arguments by Imamite scholars regarding the revelation of this verse about Imam Ali constitute the other discussions that will be set forth in the present article extensively in the form of verse internal and verse external arguments. Finally, the writer will criticize and examine the doubts cast on the cause of revelation of the verse by responding extensively to each of the doubts.

The Extent of Imam's Knowledge according to Kolaini and Saffar Abdurreza Hammadi

Page 57

Among the discussions on Imamate is that of Imam’s knowledge and its knowledge. This has been a constant source of discussion throughout the history among Shiite scholars, with numerous books having been composed in this respect, among them narrative literature on the Minor Occultation in the two books Basā’ir al Darajāt by Saffār and Al Hujjah in Kalini’s Al Kāfī collection. The examination of the views of its authors has an important role in the intellectual study of Qom’s hadith school while clarifying the Companions’ impression of narrations on this topic.The extent of Imam’s knowledge is a controversial discussion on Imamate in the Muslim nation (ummah) and the followers of Shiism. Saffâr and Kalini, inheritors of Qom’s hadith school, have collected narrations on this topic to introduce Imam’s knowledge in the realm of Creation and preordinations. Knowledge of facts of the past, events of the present and preordinations of the future constitutes a large collection of truths that are compiled in Mohammad’s Household’s knowledge collection.The present research rejects the view of some people on the difference between the two books, Al Kāfi and Basā’ir al Darajāt, while emphasizing that not only kolaini did not give up the discourse of Qom’s hadith school, but he also provided them systematically in a new form.An attempt has been made in the present research to provide a selection of narrations relating to this discussion based on the objects of knowledge. This selection was made of the large number of tradition on knowledge and provides a single criterion for comparing the chapters and narrations of the two books.
Keywords: Extent of Imams knowledge, Imams knowledge, Saffars view in Basair al Darajat, Kolainis view in Al Kāfī, comparison of Kolainis, Saffâr's views on the extent of Imam's knowledge

In order to do this, the author first investigates what the proper indicators of Imamate and the Shiite definition of Mr. Kadivar are. Then it will be criticized according to Imamate, Imam Aliʼs divine knowledge and the descriptions by Ahl al Bayt as provided in Nahjulbalaghah and according to the analysis of the emphasis by Amiralmu’minīn on his higher virtuousness, etc. Then, Mr. Kadivar’s attitude towards Nahjulbalaghah will be criticized and his unfounded claims are mentioned.

An Analysis of the Polytheistic Aspect of the Belief in Divine Qualities for the Infallible Imams according to the Qualities defined in the Quran as Polytheistic

Reza Qorbani Zarrin Page 153

There is an ideological problem when one inappropriately refers to the Quranic verses on polytheism in order to deny the extraordinary qualities of the Infallible Shia Imams, as some do. The main basis of such an argument is that it reduces the polytheism of early Islam polytheists and considers that the polytheists believed in a longitudinal system and worshipped their goddess divinely as god.This article will first examine the claim, as quoted in the book Crisis and Consolidation in the formative Period of shı̒ʻite Islam to the effect that the Quran and history recognize the belief of the early Islam polytheists in the unity of Divine Essence as the only creator and independent power. It is concludedin this article that one can not consider that the polytheists as monotheists regarding the unity of Divine Essence while attributing their polytheism to the special powers within a maintained longitudinal system as their beliefs deny the longitudinal system. It will then be clarified that the way polytheists express intercession with and proximity to God is in contrast with the Islamic and Quranic concepts of intercession and proximity to Allah. Thus, the analogy between polytheists and Muslims is a false analogy while there is no proof for considering as polytheistic the special powers that are attributed to the divine leaders. Moreover, the image drawn of polytheists and their beliefs in the Quran is fully compatible with the theological concepts of polytheism and with the fact that independence is a criterion in them.
Keywords: monotheism, polytheism, polytheistic beliefs, exaggeration, qualities of the Infallible Imams

Remarks on the Discourse of Delegation in Early Islamic Centuries

Seyed Muhammad Hadi Gerami Page 181

After the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Shiism came under the spotlight of orientalists who engaged in a historical analysis of Shiite beliefs. Some followers of the orientalists among Shiite believers have in the last few decades adopted the same approach and claimed that Shiite thought has evolved through history even in its basic foundations. An example of this attitude can be found in the book Crisis and Consolidation in the formative Period of shı̒ʻite Islam by Seyed Hoseyn Modarresi Tabstabayi.The writer’s purpose in the present article is to propose a plan for a report on the development of Imamite thought without engaging in normative and theologic discussions in order to provide a more transparent history of early Imamite thought. To this end, the author makes certain remarks on the thinking of Dr. Modarresi Tabâtabâyi regarding the discussion of delegation. Therefore, the first remark relates to the impression of early Imamites concerning the concept of delegation. Then, in the second remark, the problem is examined more extensively and more deeply. In the third remark, the author analyzes the historical understanding of the opinion of Mufaḍḍal ibn Umar Ja’afi regarding the problem of delegation. The article will finish by providing the constructs of delegation in the early hegiraic centuries.
Keywords: Delegation, intellectual history of early Imamites, historical analysis of Shiite beliefs, ideas of Dr. Modarresi Tabatabayi

A Critique of the Theory of Incompatibility of Finality of the Prophet with the Guardianship of the Imam

Said Moqaddas Page 211

In late October 2005, Dr. Abdulkarim Sorush gave a lecture in the University of Sorbonne in Paris, entitled, “Shiism and the Challenge of Democracy”, which met with reactions from academics and seminary figures.Sorush mentioned certain concerns as problems and questions that he was engaged in. Among them, however, apparently one concern and doubt was more apparent, and that is concern with “The concept of finality of Muhammmad’s prophethood and its conflict with the Shiite theory of Imamate”. On the other hand, in his speech and writings, Dr. Sorush deemed it prohibited and impossible that any position be given to the Imam that would be in conflict with Finality. The present article is a critique of his discussions and consists of two parts. The first part sets forth Dr. Sorush’s theory and opinion on the guardianship of the Imams and its relationship with the Prophet’s Finality. In this part, an attempt is made to extract and present his opinion from his other works.In the second part, his views are criticized in various ways. It is first clarified that a precise analysis will not reveal any discrepancy between the Prophet’s Finality and the continuation of guardianship in the Imams.Then, narrations and words of great religious leaders are provided as supporting evidence.
Keywords: The Prophet Muhammad(Pbuh), Imam, Finality, authoritativeness, guardianship, inheritance
