Publication of
Mulla Sadra’s Commentary on Usul al-Kafi, Volume 5
08.03.2010

The fifth volume of the invaluable book of Commentary on Usul al-Kafi, which is one of the masterpieces of the science of hadith, has been published by the Sadra Islamic Philosophy Institute.
Various
commentaries had been written before this book on the
book of the distinguished muhaddith, Kulayni Razi,
which were not quite satisfactory. Undoubtedly, the book
written by the philosopher and expert on Qur’an, Mulla
Sadra, and published by the Sadra Islamic Philosophy
Institute is the best existing commentary on Usul al-kafi.
The fifth
volume of Usul al-kafi, which has been recently
edited and published in a completely technical style, is
on an important issue in Islam, i.e. “Proof”. The
different chapters of this book are as follows:
Chapter 1:
Necessity of Proof
Chapter 2:
Levels of Prophets, Messengers, and Leaders (Imams)
Chapter 3:
The Differences between a Messenger, a Prophet, and a
Muhaddith
Chapter 4:
God’s Proof for People does not End unless with the Imam
Chapter 5:
The Earth is not Void of Proof
Chapter 6:
If there are only Two People on the Earth, One of them
is God's Proof
Chapter 7:
Imam’s Knowledge, Referring Religious Affairs to him,
and Surrendering to his Command
Chapter 8:
Obedience to the Imams is Necessary
Chapter 9:
The Imams are God’s Evidence for People
Chapter 10:
The Imams are the same Leaders
Chapter 11:
The Imams are the Favorites of God and the Guardians of
His Knowledge
This volume
of Commentary on Usul al-Kafi has been published
with edition, research, and Introduction by Subhan Ali
Kusha under the Supervision of Professor Seyyed Mohammed
Khamenei in 373 pages, including the various lists of
hadiths, names, books, etc., by the Sadra Islamic
Philosophy Institute and is now available to interested
