AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The Spanish version of the book “40 Hadiths of Imam Muhammad Baqir (AS)” has been released.
The Anisheh Sharq Art and Cultural Institute has published the work in cooperation with Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (AS) Islamic Seminary School.
The translation of the book has been edited by Mustafa Elsalvadori.
Hojat-ol-Islam Mohsen Rabbani, director of the institute, said Spanish-speaking Muslims need to know about Ahl-ul-Bayt (AS) and their school of thought.
He said promoting the teachings of Imam Baqir (AS) are a source of blessing, spiritual development and salvation.
Hojat-ol-Islam Rabbani added that millions of devotees from around the world are keen to visit the mausoleum of Imam Baqir (AS) and learn the teachings of the fifth Imam (AS).
“We hope we can promote the scholarly and spiritual heritage of Ahl-ul-Bayt (AS) in the world to the best of our ability and also attract the hearts of non-Muslims to pure Muhammadan Islam,” he added.
The first day of the lunar Hijri month of Rajab, which falls on Saturday, January 13 this year, marks the birthday of Imam Baqir (AS), which is celebrated by Shia Muslims all over the world.
The period of the imamate of Imam Baqir (AS) was contemporary with the weakening of the Umayyad government and the struggle among them for power. In this period, Imam Baqir (AS) made a great scientific movement which reached its peak at the time of his son Imam Sadiq (AS).
He was greater than anyone in his time in knowledge, piety, grandeur, and merits.
His narrations in religion, Seerah of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), Quranic sciences, moral conduct, and manner are more than what is remained from the children of Imam Hassan (AS) and Imam Hussain (AS). Thus, during his imamate, a great step was taken towards organization of Shia thought in different fields including ethics, fiqh, kalam, exegesis, etc.
Great scholars from the Sunni school of thought have attested to his scholarly and religious fame.
