Video: Solemn Plea of Ghadir; A Chapter from Rightfulness of Amir al-Mu'minin (a.s.)
AhlulBayt News Agency: Munashadah (solemn adjuration) at Ghadir is one of the methods of argumentation in Islamic history, through which the witnesses at public gatherings were sworn by God to affirm the event of Ghadir and the rightfulness of the wilayah (divine guardianship) of Amir al-Mu'minin Ali (AS). This method—particularly evident in the conduct of Imam Ali (AS) and other great figures—served as a means to elicit acknowledgment from witnesses and to remind them of a historical and doctrinal truth.

Video: Necessity of Connecting Reason with Quran and Wilayah in doctrine of Imam Musa al-Kazim (AS)
AhlulBayt News Agency: In a luminous narration, Imam Musa al-Kazim (AS) introduces reason (aql) as God's internal proof (hujjah) for distinguishing truth from falsehood. However, alongside reason, he recognizes the Prophets, the Infallible Imams (AS), and the Quran as guides and complements to human reason. According to this view, relying on reason detached from revelation and the teachings of the AhlulBayt (AS) leads one into error and worldliness—because reason alone is not a complete criterion for discernment. Rather, it is the Quran and the Itrat (the AhlulBayt) that illuminate the path of truth.

Video: Cheating in Measurement; A Blight on Expectation of Imam's Reappearance
AhlulBayt News Agency: Imam Sadiq (AS), in describing the era before the advent of the promised Mahdi, speaks of the spread of cheating in measurement (under-weighing and under-measuring) and the growing difficulty of earning lawful sustenance. In this perspective, cheating is not limited to the scales; rather, any shortfall in properly fulfilling one's responsibilities can be considered an instance of it. For this reason, one of the most important signs of a truly expectant believer (one who awaits the Imam's reappearance) is earning lawful sustenance and fulfilling the rights of the people.

From Funeral to Fire: A Story of Loss, Revenge and Resistance
Blending grief with defiance, the video tells the story of a son shaped by war, loss and the skies above South Lebanon.

AhlulBayt News Agency: The Day of Arafah is one of the greatest opportunities for servitude and returning to God.

As narrated from Imam Musa al-Kazim (AS), if a person prays for others, God will grant him a hundred thousand times that which he asked for others.

AhlulBayt News Agency: In response to the notion that Iranians regressed on the path of civilization-making after the advent of Islam, it can be said that civilization-making in Iran neither stopped nor diminished—rather, it underwent a reorientation. While before Islam, manifestations of civilization mostly appeared in the form of royal grandeur and palace construction, after Islam, this approach shifted toward shaping a spiritual, community-centered civilization with the goal of realizing a Mahdist society—a transformation that took place with the arrival of Imam Reza (a.s.) in Iran.
