Minhaj al-karamah fi macrifat al-imamah, also known as Minhâjû’l-Istikâmah fî Isbâtû’l-Imamah, is a theological treatise written by a prominent Shia scholar Allameh Al-Hilli. Al-Hilli wrote his book for the sake of defending the Imamah, and created one of the most important pillars of Shia Islam.[1]

Author[edit]

Abu Mansur Jamal Addin Hasan Ibn Yousef Ibn Motahhar, also known as Allameh Al-Hilli, was a theologian.[2] He is best known for his writings on Islamic jurisprudence and Islamic theology.[3]

Importance[edit]

The Minhaj al-karamah fi macrifat al-imamah of Ibn al-Mutahhar al-Hilli, which was written for, or at the request of, the Ilkhan Uljaytu, is a statement of the Imami Shi'a doctrine of the Imamate and a refutation of the Sunni doctrine of the caliphate. The views of Allama Hilli was later refuted by Ibn Taymiyyah of Salafiyyah in his Minhaj as-Sunnah an-Nabawiyyah.[4] In turn, some other books were written later, refuting the claims of Minhaj al-sunnah such as the Ibn Isa, Sayyed Seraj Addin Hasan, Ikmal Al-Mennah and the Kazemi, Sayyed Mahdi, Minhaj Al-Shariah.[5]

Commentary[edit]

This book has a commentary by "Sayyed Ali Hoseini Milani" in Arabic. It is made up of three volumes.[6]

Content[edit]

This book includes six parts. In the first part "Allameh Hilli Arises", there are discourses about Imamate. He explains his reasons for defending and believing in Imamate. In part three, he refers to some reasons about Imam Ali's leadership. In the fourth part, he mentions three proofs for Ali's Imamate. In the fifth part, he refers to reasons for rejecting who knows himselves as Imam before ali. He finally rejects the reasons mentioned in proving Abu Bakr succession.[7]
