A Cursory Glance at the Theory of Wilayat al-Faqih

A Cursory Glance at the Theory of Wil_yat al-Faq_h is a comprehensive examination of one of the most important foundations of the political system in Islam during the period of occultation [Ôa_r al-ghaybah] of the Im_m of the Time [im_m az-zam_n] (Ôa). This theory, known as the guardianship of the jurist, has proven to be a successful method of administering society and was implemented by the founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Im_m Khomein_.
Despite the notion of separation of religion and politics being propagated in the West, this Muslim cleric was able to establish a government system based on religious principles, values, and laws. The book delves into the concept of the ÒIslamic republic systemÓ and how it is distinct from other systems in the world. It also addresses the ongoing efforts by enemies of the Islamic Republic to undermine the principles of wil_yat al-faq_h and the role of intellectuals in this effort.
Written in an accessible and easy to understand style, this book is an important read for anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of this crucial theory and its impact on society. The erudite authorÕs academic coherence and logical support for the theory, combined with the easy-to-understand language, make this book an invaluable resource for scholars, students, and general readers alike.
