Simultaneously, Shia responses to contemporary political dynamics in the Middle East were pronounced. The advent of the Arab Spring in late 2010 inspired a wave of activism, prompting Shia voices to engage in social justice narratives. In 1390 AH, Shia scholars and community leaders emphasized the need for political participation, advocating for democratic principles, social welfare, and equitable governance. The political discourse was often framed within an Islamic context, reinforcing the notion that faith and action are inherently intertwined in the pursuit of justice and equity.

Educational Endeavors

Education remains a cornerstone of Shia identity, with seminaries (hawzas) playing a pivotal role in shaping theological and jurisprudential expertise. In 1390 AH, there was a concerted effort to enhance educational curricula, integrating contemporary disciplines alongside traditional Islamic sciences. This holistic approach aimed to equip future scholars with a comprehensive understanding of both religious and secular realms, fostering a generation capable of addressing modern challenges while remaining anchored in their Shia identity.
