Ishtihardi’s ethical teachings are another noteworthy facet of his scholarship. He delineates a framework for moral conduct that is deeply embedded in Islamic values. His exposition of virtues such as justice (adl), patience (sabr), and compassion (rahma) resonates strongly within Shia thought. Furthermore, his emphasis on the societal responsibilities of Muslims raises a provocative question: how committed are we, as Shia Muslims, to realizing these ethical imperatives in our daily lives?
