Ta'wil Posts on the Subject of Imâm and Imâmat for the 47th Imâmat Day Celebration

Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

Imam and Imamat
In his firman to Surat Jamat on 12th October, 1903, NOOR Mowlânâ Sultân Muhammad Shâh (a.s.) said "If you always read religious books, you will come to know that the throne of Imamat is continuous, perpetual and everlasting." Therefore, the subjects of Imam and Imamat are of paramount importance for all believers of God.

Project Description
In order to prepare for the 47th anniversary of our beloved NOOR Mowlânâ Shâh Karim Al-Hussaini's (a.s.) accession to the masnat of Imamat, it is necessary to understand the principles of Imâm and Imâmat from a Qur'anic point of view. The goal of this project is to create awareness of these principles and increase our knowledge. Therefore, let us seek luminous (noorani) and spiritual (ruhani) help (tayid) to understand the tawil of Qur'anic words or ayats pertaining to Imâm and Imâmat, and then recite a bouquet of salwats to strengthen our knowledge (ilm) and faith (iman). I have taken an Ismaili Muslim viewpoint in selecting these ta'wil posts.
