For Allah, then for history

For Allah, then for history (Arabic:لله ثم للتاريخ) is a autobiographical book allegedly written by the unknown author Husein al-Musawi. Its authenticity is doubted and it may be of the same genre as other propaganda books such as the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.

Contents

According to the book, the author, Dr. Sayyid Husein al-Musawi, was born in Karbala, Iraq. He attended the hawza in Najaf and achieved the rank of mujtahid. He was a Shiite scholar who later repudiated Shiism and became Sunni.

The most famous event recounted in this book is an alleged visit by Khomeini to the house of a man named Sayyid Sahib near Baghdad. According to the author, Khomeini was taken by Sahibs' five year old daughter and requested to sleep with her. He is said to have raped her throughout the night.

The book and the events described above were quoted in the book 'Hal Ataaka Hadeeth ur-Raafidah’ by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

Authenticity

The authenticity of the accounts described in the book is highly questionable, as is whether the author it is ascribed to ever existed. It has been refuted by Shia writers.

Contradictions in the book supposedly include the assertion that the author met Dildar Ali Naseerabadi, who died in 1820, while he was also present at the funeral of Abu al-Qasim al-Khoei in 1992. This would require the author to have been well over 192 years old.

Influence

The book may have played a significant role in the Sunni-Shia violence in Iraq and other countries, as its citation by the famously anti-Shia Zarqawi shows.
