Jamil ibn Daraj

Central to ibn Daraj’s teachings are his ethical precepts, which underscore the significance of moral exemplariness in the life of a believer. He advocated for virtues such as honesty, humility, and compassion. His works often drew upon Quranic verses and narrations from the Prophet Muhammad and the Imams to illustrate the importance of ethical behavior.

One of his notable teachings revolved around the concept of cooperation and solidarity among the community. He promoted a vision of collective responsibility, whereby individuals are urged to assist one another in both spiritual and social endeavors. This communal ethos forms the bedrock of Shia unity and resilience in the face of adversity.
