Al-Sadr’s theological contributions are underscored by his seminal works, notably “Al-Fikr al-Islami” (Islamic Thought) and “Al-Iqtisad al-Islami” (Islamic Economy). In these texts, he meticulously explores the interface of Islamic teachings with various aspects of human existence, positing that Islam offers comprehensive frameworks for both spiritual and temporal matters.
One of his notable contributions is the integration of Islamic philosophy with contemporary social sciences. Al-Sadr emphasized the need for ijtihad (independent reasoning) in interpreting Islamic law to address modern challenges. His views on the necessity of adapting Islamic teachings to contemporary socio-economic conditions underline his progressive outlook, as he argued for a dynamic, rather than static, understanding of Shia jurisprudence.
