امامیہ سیاسی فقہ کے مختلف اَدوار اور تاریخ کا جائزہ

Muhammad Hasan Jamali — Thu, 10 Oct 2024 06:42:08 +0000

The Shiite political fiqah (jurisprudence) has gone through fundamental changes during several periods. This research paper enlightens the history of Imamia political fiqah. It shows that Imamia political fiqah has gone through five important periods:

The 1^st period is known as Shiite fiqah supremacy. This period is in fact, the rulings period of the holy prophet (PBUH) and Imam Ali (as). In this period, the Holy prophet (PBUH) and Amir-ul-Momineed Ali (as) left political heritage, since they were ruling the state. The letters written by Hazrat Ali (as) to his commanders like Malik Ashtar, indeed, highlight the core principles for political obligations.

The 2^nd period is known as the “Period of Taqqiyah” or the period of “concealment”. This period starts from Banu Umayyad’ rule and continues still a Shiites’ rule came into being.

The 3^rd period started when some Shiites’ rulers like Safavid and Qachar helped Shiites’ Jurists (Mujtahideen) to complete their research projects. In this period, Shiite jurists tried their best to spread Shiite school of thought by writing books and establishing institution and seminaries.

The 4^th period consist of the struggles to monitor and limit Absolute power of Kings. This period starts from «Constitutionalization movement» in Iran which resulted producing crucial work on Shiites’ political fiqah. In this period, the topic of discussion was not rulers succession rather people talked about constitution, rule of law, parliament, shura committee and people representation in legal institutions.

The 5^th period of the Shiite political fiqah is the time of wilayat-e faqih (rule of jurist). The Islamic revolution in Iran led by Imam Khomeini (in 1342) raised new issues in Shiites’ political fiqah.

عصرِ غیبت میں اسلامی حکومت کے قیام پراعتراضات کا جائزہ

Ghulam Qanbar Haidari — Wed, 09 Oct 2024 09:37:18 +0000

It has been claimed that the establishment of an Islamic government during the Great Absence of Imam al-Zamana (a.s) is equivalent to the establishment of a Taghut government. Because the responsibility of the Shiites in the time of absence of their Imam is to keep silent, not to leave their homes, avoid unnecessary contact with people, taqiyyah and to protect their lives, property and faith. In the present article, this claim has been examined. This article also examines whether it is forbidden, permissible or compulsory to follow an expert (Mujtahid) during the time of occultation of Imam al Zamana (a.s)?

According to the author, the traditions which the plaintiff has presented as arguments on this claim are incapable of being arguments. The reason for this is that all these hadiths are the single news; not frequent ones. Surely, such hadiths don’t have any credibility in the light of the science of Darayat al-Hadith.

And even if these traditions are accepted as correct, the meaning of these traditions is doubtful. Because some of these traditions prevent accepting the rule of Taghut, and some of them imply that if someone establishes a government by presenting himself as the Imam of the time, his government, a Taghut government. Similarly, the traditions that command taqiyyah are also related to situations where a person is certain of irreparable loss of life and property.

According to the author of the paper, even if the traditions relied on by the plaintiff are accepted as correct in terms of their narration, they don’t prove the claim of plaintiff. Because they are against those verses of the Holy Quran and those reliable hadiths of the innocents which stress upon the struggle against oppressors and obligate every Muslim to command for the good and forbid from evil.
