Ayatollah Motahhari

Spirituality and Religious Worship

In addition to his intellectual rigor, Motahhari’s emphasis on spirituality distinguishes his teachings. He captures the notion of worship as a comprehensive framework extending beyond ritualistic prayer to encompass daily life and ethical behavior. His exploration of spirituality is tied to the development of an inner moral compass, encouraging readers to seek authentic connections with the divine.

Motahhari’s writings on spirituality are imbued with insights that foster personal growth, urging individuals to cultivate a relationship with God that is nurturing and meaningful. Expect discussions on prayer (salah), supplication (dua), and remembrance of God (dhikr) as essential practices that deepen spiritual awareness and the pursuit of tranquility in a tumultuous world.
