Gentle reader,

This book, between your hands, is among the masterpieces of the late shaykh Mohammed Husayn al- Muzaffar. The Shaykh was a prominent scholar with outstanding merits. He rendered great services to the Muslim world. Among them is this book he has written on Imam al- Sadiq, peace be on him, to show his uniqe qualities.

The book, written in Arabic, was published several times by the Theological School in Najaf. Then it has been published by the Theological School in Qum.

Because of the historical importance of the book, we have decided to publish it in English to avail Muslims all over the world. Besides we have shortened some of its subject so as not to be boring.

So, gentle reader, read the book carefully and send us your viewpoints and suggestions to put them into effect, for as they say:. Many heads are better than one.. Thank you.

DEDICATION

My master Abfl Abd Allah: I raise these brief pages with both my hands to dedicate them to your exalted holiness. I am sure that I am not among those who match these high ascents, or whose goods are sold in such an expensive market, but 1 am cleaving to the handle of this pure progeny, holding fast to this Blessed Tree, and hoping very much to be among those lucky ones who serve them. This book, which is between my hands, is the result of my collecting, writing, and commenting-and the value of each person is what he does well-then if there is a good feature in it, it is from you and to you; if there is a slip in it, it is from my disobedient pen. Still you are the best in forgiving short comings. My hope is that you will be kind enough to buy these goods from your follower. Its price is your acceptance. How high this price is!
