ABWA Official Website – The book “The Truth is with Ali (a.s.)” by Mahdi Faqih Imani, was translated into English and published by the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.
In this book, while studying the prophetic hadith “Ali (a.s.) is with the Truth and the Truth is with Ali (a.s.)” from Sunni hadith sources, the author proves the rightness of the caliphate of Imam Ali (a.s.).
The author begins the book by comparing the Shiite and Sunni views on caliphate and leadership issues and tries to explain the role of divine prophets, especially the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h), as well as caliphs in the leadership.
Further, in a large part of the book, the documents, and sources of the above hadith from the Companions until the 14th century are studied, and all the examples of the hadith of the Companions are also mentioned.
Then, the following topics are raised and scrutinized: the circumstances and occasion in which the hadith is issued, the lies of Ibn Taymiyyah, examples of distortions by the Umayyads, the fact that Ammar Yasser was right, and examples of the arguments of famous Islamic scholars to the aforementioned hadith.
In the final part, the author discusses the content of the hadith, and in this regard, he mentions issues such as the affairs of the caliphate and the leadership of infallibility of Imam Ali (a.s.), the reason why Imam Ali (a.s.) did not get his right, and the confessions of some of the companions and Sunni scholars who opposed Ali (a.s.).
The book “The Truth is with Ali (a.s.)” by Mahdi Faqih Imani, was translated by Iraj Razzaq in English and was published by the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly Publication House in crown octavo size.
