Lantern Of The Path

The book is a collection of Hadith by the 6th Imam on knowledge, behaviour, remembrance, prayer, and fear of God. Each one is a threshold to the next chapter, guiding the reader through the broad spectrum of ageless wisdom, like a lantern along the path of reality. The author illuminates the inner meanings of outer practices which range from practical everyday acts of behaviour, to the practices of worship, morals and ethics, and the pillars of religion, and interpreting such controversial subjects as iraadah (free will) and qadr (the power to direct one's own actions).
