Abu Basir Al-Muradi
Abū Baṣīr Layth ibn al-Bakhtarī al-Murādī (Arabic:ابوبصیر لیث بن البختری المرادی) known as Abu Basir al-Moradi or simply Abu Basir was a famous Shia jurist (Faqīh, ) and traditionist and an associate of Muhammad al-Baqir and Ja'far al-Sadiq. Al-Sadiq is believed to have told Moradi, Zurarah ibn A'yun, Zurarah, Burayd ibn Mu'awiya al-'Ijli, Burayd, and Muhammad ibn Muslim that they were the "tent pegs of the world", and that the prophetic hadiths would have been lost without them. He was among the Imami leaders of Kufa in the first half of the year 2 AH / 8 AD. In the religious sources, he is considered as one of the companions of al-Baqir and one of the companions of al-Sadiq. But in the hadiths, there is no definitive example for his narration of al-Baqir. Abu Basir al-Moradi has also narrated from some Ahl al-Bayt hadith narrators such as Abdul Kareem bin Utbah Hashemi (one of the companions of al-Sadiq and al-Kazem). Names Abu Basir's main nickn ...

Faqīh
A ''faqīh'' (: ''fuqahāʾ'', ; : ) is an Islamic jurist, an expert in ''fiqh'', or Islamic jurisprudence and Islamic law. Definition Islamic jurisprudence or ''fiqh'' is the human understanding of Sharia, which is believed by Muslims to represent divine law as revealed in the Quran and ''sunnah'' (the practices of the Islamic prophet Muhammad). Sharia is expanded and developed by interpretation ('' ijtihad'') of the Quran and ''sunnah'' by Islamic jurists (''ulama'') and implemented by the rulings (''fatwas'') of jurists on questions presented to them. ''Fiqh'' deals with the observance of rituals, morals and social legislation in Islam. In the modern era there are four prominent schools (''madhhab'') of ''fiqh'' within Sunni practice and two (or three) within Shia practice. The historian Ibn Khaldun describes ''fiqh'' as "knowledge of the rules of God which concern the actions of persons who own themselves bound to obey the law respecting what is require ...

Hadith Studies
Hadith studies is the academic study of hadith, a literature typically thought in Islamic religion to be a record of the words, actions, and the silent approval of the Muhammad as transmitted through chains of narrators. A major area of interest in hadith studies has been the degree to which hadith can be used as a reliable source for reconstructing the biography of Muhammad, in parallel to the Islamic discipline of the hadith sciences. Since the pioneering work of Ignaz Goldziher, the sentiment has been that hadith are a more faithful source for understanding the religious, historical, and social developments in the first two centuries of Islam than they are a reliable record of Muhammad's life, especially concerning the formation of Islamic law, theology, and piety during the Umayyad and early Abbasid eras. Among other reasons, historians are skeptical of understanding the historical Muhammad through hadith due to the late date for when the hadith compilations were made ...

Halal
''Halal'' (; ) is an Arabic word that translates to in English. Although the term ''halal'' is often associated with Islamic dietary laws, particularly meat that is slaughtered according to Islamic guidelines, it also governs ethical practices in business, finance (such as the prohibition of interest or ''riba''), and daily living. It encompasses broader ethical considerations, including fairness, social justice, and the treatment of animals. The concept of ''halal'' is central to Islamic practices and is derived from the Quran and the Sunnah (the teachings and practices of the Prophet Muhammad).

The guidelines for what is considered ''halal'' or ''haram'' are laid out in Islamic jurisprudence (''fiqh''), and scholars interpret these guidelines to ensure compliance with Islamic principles. This binary opposition was elaborated into a more complex classification known as "Ahkam, the five decisions": Fard, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

He is known by the epithets al-Jawād () and al-Taqī ().

Born in Medina in 810–811, Muhammad al-Jawad was the son of Ali al-Rida, the eighth of the Twelve Imams. In 817, the Abbasid caliph al-Ma'mun () summoned al-Rida to Khorasan and designated him as the heir apparent, possibly to mitigate the frequent Shia revolts. This appointment provoked strong opposition in Iraq, which forced al-Ma'mun to return to the capital Baghdad in 818 and ab ...

Musa Al-Kazim
Musa al-Kazim (; 745–799) was a descendant of the Prophets and messengers in Islam, Islamic prophet Muhammad and the seventh Twelve Imams, imam in Twelver Shi'ism, Twelver Shia Islam. Musa is often known by the title al-Kazim (), apparently a reference to his patience and gentle disposition. He was born in 745 in Medina to Ja'far al-Sadiq, the sixth Shia imam, who died in 765 without publicly designating a successor to save his heir from the wrath of the Abbasid Caliphate, Abbasid caliphs. The subsequent crisis of succession was eventually resolved in favor of al-Kazim, with a dissenting group, now known as the Isma'ilism, Isma'ilis, separating from the mainstream Shia. After the death of al-Sadiq, Musa al-Kazim remained in Medina, where he kept aloof from politics and devoted himself to religious teachings. He was nevertheless tightly restricted by the Abbasid caliphs and spent much of his adult life in their prisons. To counter these restrictions, he established an undergr ...
