About the Book

This book is a treatment of Shi'a Islam from an emic or inside perspective of Shi'a Islam itself, as opposed to the perspective of orientalism, or of comparative religion, or sociology or some other branch of the humanities with their modern Western perspectives, all of which are philosophical approaches (in the sense that they have philosophical rather than religious underpinnings) and therefore do not, strictly speaking, deal with the religion itself as it is understood by the clerisy of its practitioners, but do so from a perspective and ideological framework that is alien and indeed antithetical and at times hostile to it. There is a severe dearth of source material which the English-speaking reader can rely on to provide him or her with the proper understanding of Shi'a Islam based on the self-understanding of the religion itself. The Doctrinal Series (as well as other series) of the Lion of Najaf Publications hopes to do its part in filling the lacunae that exist, thereby firstly providing Moslems who have emigrated to or have been born outside of the Islamic heartland with reliable material for them to gain a better understanding of their religion; and secondly, to provide non-Moslems who are interested in learning more about Islam, and about Shi'a Islam in particular, with first-hand and dependable resources which are sourced from the heart of Islamic civilization. Mas'ud Emami's What Prominent Sonni Scholars have said about the Imams of the Shi'a, is, as the subtitle states, a new case for the rightfulness of the claim to leadership of the twelve imams of the Shi'a, based on the application of evidentialism exclusively to Sonni sources for proofs of the rightfulness of their claims to the imamate. Sonni sources have been scrupulously examined and copious hadith proofs have been provided for each of the Imams in turn from such sources as the sahihayn of Bokhari and Moslem, and the tafsirs and histories of such Sonni luminaries as Tabari and Eben Sa'd.
