DESCRIPTION:
English translation by Syed Jazib Reza Kazmi of Syed Baqir Nisar Zaidi's "Kashaful Haqaiq" which explains the true concepts of ijtihad and taqleed according to the sayings of Masoomeen (asws) and Quranic ayahs.
"Very Enlightening!" according to Anthony. A must read for those who are interested in the history of Ijtihad, My favorite chapter in the book is The Beginning of Ijtihad. The writer begins the book by appealing towards the intellect of man , He writes (Intellect is that which gives man an exalted status over other creation and, without which, man would follow their instincts in the same way animals do; however, man acts lower than animals in certain ways. It is due to this intellect that he has been granted a superior status over the others. And when I refer to his intellect, I am not referring to something extraordinary, but rather, I am. "One Sided" according to Abbas Merchant. Has the writers sect point of view only. Would have liked it if he could enlitend the readers of other point of views also for them to judge !!
