Upbringing of Children: The Support for Parents in Old Age

Parents sacrifice their youth, rest, and personal desires to raise their children, but in old age, their true strength comes from their children's gentle tone rather than mere physical support. This softness and respect do not appear overnight; they stem from early moral upbringing that teaches children to honor aging parents rather than view them as a burden. True success is not measured by high worldly status or wealth, but by raising empathetic human beings who make time for their parents and treat their frailties with compassion. Since children learn character from action rather than spoken advice, parents must lead by example today to avoid the heartbreak of becoming neglected strangers in their own homes tomorrow.

The Educational Curriculum of Tanzeem-ul-Makatib: Jihad in the Era of Occultation and the Authorization of the General Deputy (Na’ib al-Amm) — An Analytical Study

Distinction of Deputyship: The text differentiates between the specific, historical Special Deputyship (Niyabat al-Khas) and the ongoing General Deputyship (Niyabat al-Amm) held by qualified jurists during the Major Occultation. Jurisprudential Views on Jihad: While classical consensus largely viewed initiative jihad as suspended without an Infallible Imam, several contemporary authorities (such as Ayatollah al-Khoei and Ayatollah Khamenei) maintain that its obligation or execution can persist under specific conditions. Authority and Execution: Grand Ayatollah al-Khoei grounds the jurist’s mandate to oversee such matters in Bab al-Hasbah and the prevention of social chaos, whereas Ayatollah Khamenei views it as an explicit prerogative of the Wali al-Amr. Contextual Application to Tanzeem-ul-Makatib: The curriculum's requirement of authorization from the "Deputy of the Imam" reflects this jurisprudential need for institutional oversight, emphasizing that military action cannot be declared arbitrarily by unauthorized individuals or rogue groups.

The Myth of American Might Unraveled: The War with Iran and the Geopolitical Dilemma

The escalating conflict with Iran has exposed critical limits in American military dominance, costing Washington over $43 billion, draining vital missile stockpiles, and triggering domestic inflation at fuel pumps and grocery stores. Despite suffering heavy attrition, Iran's asymmetric tactics and leverage over the Strait of Hormuz disrupted global energy markets, ensuring the war's financial and economic fallout did not remain one-sided. Donald Trump’s rhetoric urging citizens to bear these rising expenses as a "small price" reflects growing strategic anxiety as Washington struggles to convert sheer firepower into political victory. Caught in an expensive war of attrition with depleted reserves and no clear path to triumph or graceful exit, the U.S. faces a costly stalemate that represents a major political success for Iranian defiance.

Identifying Nasibism: The Anatomy of Hatred and Fanaticism

Nasibism is an ideological factory of hatred that legitimizes terror, extremism, and the persecution of innocents under a guise of religious sanctity. Driven by a deep-seated malice toward the Prophet and his Progeny (Ahl al-Bayt), it strips the human heart of conscience and transforms violence into an act of twisted devotion. This fanaticism is continually nurtured by radical clerics whose pulpit sermons and biased edicts sanctify bloodshed and justify historical atrocities. While its proponents may change their garb, names, or rhetoric over time, the true essence of Nasibism remains unchanged: unrelenting animosity toward the Ahl al-Bayt and an unyielding defense of tyranny.

Yemen: The Land of Faith and Wisdom — And What of Najd?

This passage contrasts prophetic traditions concerning Yemen and Najd based on narrations from Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) commended the people of Yemen for their soft-heartedness, declaring faith and wisdom to be Yemeni, while praying for their land and promising them precedence at his Basin. In stark contrast, when requested to bless Najd, he refrained, forewarning that earthquakes, tribulations, and the horn of Satan would arise from there. Overall, the text highlights the historical and spiritual virtue bestowed upon Yemen over Najd through prophetic testimony.

The Curriculum of Tanzeem-ul-Makatib: On the Desk of Research, Not in the Dock of Accusation

This article defends Tanzeem-ul-Makatib's educational curriculum, arguing that simplifying complex jurisprudence (Fiqh) for children is a necessary pedagogical tool rather than an alteration of divine law (Sharia). It emphasizes that stating Jihad requires the authorization of a legitimate religious authority aligns with classical Shi'a jurisprudence and serves as a vital safeguard against vigilantism and extremist violence, especially in pluralistic societies like India. Furthermore, introductory textbooks must be understood within their educational and historical contexts rather than judged as advanced legal treatises.

History

To Those Calling Iran "Majuus": Read Your Own History First

Labeling modern Iran as "Majuus" disregards centuries of Islamic scholarship and ignores the foundational contributions of the Persian and Khurasanian regions. From the early devotion of Salman al-Farsi to the compilation of the major Hadith corpuses and landmark works in theology and exegesis, this civilization shaped core Islamic heritage. Ascribing a centuries-old pre-Islamic faith to an entire modern population contradicts Quranic principles, which measure honor by piety rather than ancestry. Valid disagreements—whether theological or political—warrant reasoned critique rather than historically inaccurate, derogatory generalizations.

The Criteria of Leadership and the Leader of the Contemporary Era: Leadership Standards in the Light of the Quran and the Ahl al-Bayt (pbut)

In Islamic thought, leadership is a sacred trust grounded in piety, scholarly competence, mutual consultation, and accountability rather than power or lineage. Applying these criteria established by the Quran and Ahl al-Bayt, the text examines Ayatollah Sayyid Mojtaba Khamenei's leadership amid severe geopolitical and economic challenges. It emphasizes that a leader's true strength lies in instilling national unity and public trust during crises. Ultimately, leadership must be judged by principles over personality and character over renown.

Martyrdom: Not Death, but Eternal Life

Martyrdom is depicted not as an end, but as an eternal awakening where sacrifice bears witness to enduring conviction. Reflecting on the loss of Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah, the text conveys profound grief alongside the Quranic assurance that martyrs remain alive with their Lord. Though his physical presence and voice are gone, his message and resolve persist in the hearts of the people. Ultimately, his sacrifice poses an enduring challenge to the living: to honor his memory not merely through grief, but through steadfast faith, character, and action.

Sister:A Soothing Shade in the Scorching Sun of Sorrows

A sister is not merely a family member, but an irreplaceable emotional anchor and a living archive of shared childhood memories. Scientific studies—including long-term research from Harvard—demonstrate that this close, affectionate bond naturally reduces stress, alleviates anxiety, and accelerates healing after life’s hardships. Unlike other relationships that often fade with time, the love of a sister transcends age and distance, offering an unconditional safe haven where one can be entirely authentic. Having a compassionate sister is an invaluable blessing, providing lifelong comfort that often proves more restorative than any medicine.

The Bitter Refelection of History: The Shadows of Power and the Light of Thaqalayn

Muslim history reveals a sharp divergence between the corrupting pursuit of political power and the moral path of the Thaqalayn (the Qur'an and the Prophet’s Ahl al-Bayt). While empires routinely weaponized religion to justify tyranny, bloodshed, and conquest, the Ahl al-Bayt and their adherents chose sacrifice, justice, and spiritual steadfastness over worldly compromise—exemplified by Karbala. In the modern era, post-1979 Iran is presented as an ongoing test of whether a nation can maintain this ideological resistance and sovereignty against foreign dominance. Ultimately, history measures greatness not by transient authority or conquered lands, but by where one stood when confronting injustice.

God Exists | Not Reachable or Available for All

In the previous article, we were very bold. We thoughtlessly asked questions from history and mistakenly asked questions that seem to be against science. While this was not the idea at all. The idea was that the harmony of religion, philosophy and science is the root, branches and fruit of consciousness.
