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 11 details the foundational jurisprudence of the sacred pilgrimage and the etiquettes of journeying. The volume begins by establishing the strict obligation of Hajj upon capable adults, detailing the conditions of financial ability, clear passage, and the spiritual perils of abandoning this duty. It extensively outlines the rules of Niyabah, explaining how deputization functions for the living and the deceased. Furthermore, it categorizes the three types of pilgrimage (Tamattu, Qiran, and Ifrad) and defines the physical Mawaqit boundaries where the state of Ihram must be initiated. Beyond the pilgrimage rituals, this volume provides comprehensive guidance on Adab al-Safar, covering the recommended days for travel, the rejection of superstitious omens, and the spiritual provisions required for the road. Finally, it concludes with extensive rulings on the ethical treatment, maintenance, and rights of riding animals. 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.
