Rayaheen al-sharia (book)

4. Social Justice and Governance

Rayaheen al-Sharia addresses social justice, an essential tenet of Shia Islam. It expounds on the rights and responsibilities of individuals toward one another and the state. Central to this discourse is the concept of Imamate, which posits that leaders of the Muslim community must embody justice, integrity, and knowledge. The text provides an analysis of the principle of wilayah (guardianship) and its implications for governance, arguing for a model that is both theocratic and participatory.

5. Interpersonal Relations and Family Law
