30 Draughts from the Book “The Necessity of Seeking Intercession Through the Ahl al-Bayt (PBUH)” in the Month of Hospitality of God
Coinciding with the arrival of the month of the hospitality of God, the “Dar al-Ma’rifah” Cultural-Research Institute initiates the publication of excerpts from the statements of Ayatullah Sayyid Mujtaba Nur Mufidi, Professor of Advanced Classes (Dars-e Kharij) at the Islamic Seminary of Qom, centered on “The Necessity of Seeking Intercession Through the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them).”
This collection, compiled based on his lectures during the first ten days of Muharram in the year 2015 [1394 Solar Hijri], seeks to present a systematic image—free from exaggeration and neglect—of the standing of seeking intercession through the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) on the path of divine proximity, explaining the existential dimensions of Tawassul.
A Call for Deep Reflection in the Month of Ramadan
The publication of these precious teachings in the month of divine hospitality provides an opportunity for believers to welcome this month with correct cognition (ma’rifah), viewing Tawassul not as an instrument for resolving daily problems, but as a secure bridge to reach the status of divine proximity. This book, a research product of the Dar al-Ma’rifah Institute, serves as a document for a more precise understanding of the Medium of Grace (Wasitah al-Fayd) in the Shia intellectual system and preparation for spiritual wayfaring (suluk ‘irfani) during these spiritual days.
Notice to Esteemed Readers:
God willing, during the month of Ramadan, excerpts from the contents of this book will be uploaded to the channel of the respected Master.
