Ebook: Doctrines of Shiʿi Islam: A Compendium of Imami Beliefs and Practices

This text offers a wide-ranging overview of the principal tenets of Shiʿi Islam. It is useful not only as an introductory text on Shiʿi thought and practice, but also as a contemporary expression, from within, of this branch of this vibrant branch of the Islamic faith. Comprehensive and concise, this work is principally theological and jurisprudential, dealing with such issues as the concept of knowledge, the nature of being and the problem of evil.
