Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"Wasa'il al-Shia" stands as one of the most monumental collections of Shi'i jurisprudential hadith, rigorously documenting every dimension of religious law. Compiled by the illustrious Shaykh Hurr Amili (d. 1693), this encyclopedic masterpiece comprises approximately 36,000 traditions across 30 volumes.Driven by the necessity of engaging directly with the explicit words of the Ahl al-Bayt, Shaykh Hurr Amili designed this collection as a complete, self-sufficient constitution for both knowledge and practice. Systematically organized by topic, the work aggregates traditions from reliable and mass-transmitted textual sources, expanding beyond the Four Canonical Books to gather the preserved notebooks of the early faithful.Above all, it serves as an unaltered conduit to the Infallibles, offering the greatest gift possible: the ability to base one's religion firmly upon the pristine teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt.Volume 8 continues the extensive Book of Prayer across ten distinct sections, navigating both exceptional circumstances and communal worship. The text opens with the rulings for Salat al-Istisqa (prayer for rain) and details the Nawafil (supererogatory prayers) specific to the month of Ramadan. It then outlines various recommended prayers, including Salat Ja'far and Salat al-Istikharah. Transitioning to jurisprudential remedies, the volume extensively addresses Khilal al-Salat (defects in prayer), covering doubts and forgetfulness, followed by the strict protocols for Qadha (making up missed prayers). The volume subsequently shifts to communal worship, providing the complete framework for Salat al-Jama'ah (congregational prayer). Finally, the text addresses prayers in exceptional states, detailing the rulings for Salat al-Khawf (prayer of fear) and Salat al-Musafir (traveler's prayer). By utilizing these precise classical terms, this volume provides an indispensable resource for the advanced study of Shi'i jurisprudence.Translated by the Shia Heritage Foundation, this edition provides researchers, university students, and seminarians with a precise, authoritative text. It stands as an indispensable resource for the rigorous study of classical law and the practical implementation of early jurisprudential doctrine.
