More about the book

Focusing on the interplay between knowledge and authority, this comparative study examines the contributions of Hamid al-Din Kirmani and Mulla Sadra within Ismaili and Twelver contexts. It explores the development of the discourse surrounding the imam's absolute authority through translated and analyzed texts in Arabic and Persian. The work also highlights Nasir al-Din Tusi's role in shaping Ismaili narratives that influenced later Shii philosophy, extending its relevance to modern discussions on the guardianship of the jurist in Iran.
