This book studies ethical relativism in its most profound and recent forms, and argues that a non-relativist account of morality is capable of validating our moral experiences without undesirable implications. The author demonstrates that, unlike during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, support for ethical relativism is now in decline. He proposes that the most promising strategy is first to settle the issue of the foundations of morality, and then to develop a new theory of morality based on self-love, moral ideals and the process of decision-making. Ethical Relativism brings a fresh perspective to the on-going debate on post-modernism and relativism, and should be of interest to all who study philosophy, theology and cultural studies, and those interested in spirituality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMohammad Ali Shomali was born in Iran in 1965.

This book studies ethical relativism in its most profound and recent forms, and argues that a non-relativist account of morality is capable of validating our moral experiences without undesirable implications. The author demonstrates that, unlike during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, support for ethical relativism is now in decline. He proposes that the most promising strategy is first to settle the issue of the foundations of morality, and then to develop a new theory of morality based on self-love, moral ideals and the process of decision-making. Ethical Relativism brings a fresh perspective to the on-going debate on post-modernism and relativism, and should be of interest to all who study philosophy, theology and cultural studies, and those interested in spirituality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMohammad Ali Shomali was born in Iran in 1965.

The science is also very useful in providing insight into the thought processes and endeavors of Islamic scholars, as well as to the many key theological, political and cultural movements that developed throughout the ages. It treats the subject of Hadith from all its different perspectives, such as the historical beginnings of the science, the onset of Hadith literature, compilation of Hadith works, the terminology and methodology within the science itself, authenticity and weakness of traditions, and the whole phenomenon of fabrication, to mention but a few of the topics elaborated in this work. The views of both classical as well as modern scholars are portrayed, resulting in an effective overview of the science of Hadith. This same publication also includes a translation of the oldest Shi‘a Ithna ‘Ashari text written on the science and contextual study of Hadith – Dirayat al-Hadith – by the renowned tenth-century scholar and jurist al-Shahid al-Thani. This is a short treatise on the science of Hadith, which although brief in length, was a pioneering and essential work of its time, by virtue of which this science came to be recorded in the first place, and which paved the way for all other works to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e'Abd al-Hadi al-Fadli (1935-) was born in Basra, Iraq. He studied traditional sciences at the theological seminary in Najaf and later received his doctorate in Arabic literature from Cairo University. A renowned educator, al-Fadli has taught at various universities and seminaries in the Muslim world and was one of the first Muslim scholars to take up the challenge of writing modern textbooks on traditional Islamic sciences, including his famous textbook on logic, Khulasat al-Mantiq.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAl-Shahid al-Thani was born in 911 AH and executed in 966 AH.

This ground-breaking translation brings to light how Fayd Kashani engages with the Sunni Sufi tradition - particularly the ideas of al-Ghazzali - for the benefit of a Shi'a audience. In addition to presenting the inner mysteries of Islamic ritual practices, Fayd also explains the nature of the human character and how to cultivate, balance, and eliminate various traits. Fayd Kashani centres his discussion on verses of the Qur'an and narrations (hadiths) from the Prophet Muhammad (S) and the twelve Imams (A). Serving as a useful reference work, this book includes the original Arabic narrations for the reader's convenience. *** Fayd Kashani (1598-1680) was a renowned Iranian Islamic scholar who specialised in hadith, jurisprudence, philosophy, and mysticism.
