Discourses with Ayatollah Alirawani: The Role of Islam in Our Lives

Discourses is a candid dialogue between Ayatollah Al-Irawani and Haidar Bahreluloom, delving deep into sharing what Shia Islam stands for today. This dialogue provides a transformative journey through the teachings of Shi'a Islam, with the concept

of Tawhid - the belief in the Oneness of God - at its center.

The book delves into the life of the Prophet Muhammad and his family who, through their unwavering devotion to God, remind us of the unifying force that connects us all. We are all connected by universal principles and virtues, such as honesty, kindness, and integrity, which serve as a shared moral compass for humanity and are integral to the teachings of Shia Islam.

The Prophet and his family - the Ahl al-Bayt - taught that faith and action are inseparable, demonstrating that faith should naturally translate into meaningful action. Enjoining good and forbidding evil underscores the shared responsibility we all

carry in promoting moral excellence and confronting wrongdoing. Our exploration of Shia Islam highlights the deeply personal nature of one's relationship with the Divine, which the Ahl al-Bayt cherished and nurtured.

Diversity, community, and understanding are also highlighted in Shi a Islam, with the common thread of faith and devotion binding Shia Muslims together. Shia Muslims are a community founded upon shared beliefs and values gleamed from the profound teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt.

The journey of faith and understanding, guided by love for the Ahl al-Bayt, is an infinite one. This book is a first step for seekers to explore its limitless depths.
