    The Manifestations and Effects of Remembrance of God


    Ayatollah Mohammad Taqi  Misbah

    Abstract

    The present paper expounds one of the supplications of Imam Sajjad (peace be upon him) about the effects of remembering God. Man’s heart and soul are the center of emotions including love. Man is attached to and loves the things that appeal to him. This love has a longitudinal hierarchy. The highest stage is “Walah (love-madness)” and “Hiyam (wander lust)”. “Walah” is a kind of bewilderment resulting from extreme love and “Hiyam” is a state in which one goes mad, wanders around near the beloved's residence because of his overwhelming love, thinks of none but his beloved, and forgets all about his own existence. Prophet Ibrahim is a perfect example of how to love God. The lower stage is realized through supplication, seeking nearness to God and infallible Imams (peace be upon them). Some love Imam Hussein and Imam Ali (peace be upon them) so much that they are ready to sacrifice their lives for the love of them.

     

    Key words: love, affection, valeh (love-mad), hiyam, tranquility, remembrance of God.

Ayatollah Misbah, an ideological theorist of the Islamic Revolution, and Sheikh Fadlulah Nuri, the initiator of the legitimate constitutional governance in Qajariy period, both emphasize on the necessity of adhering to the "guardianship of religious Jurist" and establishing an Islamic government. Sheikh Fadlulah Nuri advocates the possibility of exercising authority by a Muslim jurist consult in the form of legitimate constitutional governance if possible, not it desired.

    A Comparison between Islamic Globalization and Western Globalization

    Sayyed Mahdi Sayyedian

    Abstract

    Having dominated the media, the West claims that globalism is prevailing and keeps getting ahead in this regard. However, there are fundamental differences between Islam and the West in their definition of this concept. Different ideas are introduced by Islam and the West about the nature of the universe, man, goal and religion. Basically, religion in the western culture lacks comprehensiveness and it does not consider social and political matters related to religion. Therefore, according to the intellectual and practical principles of the West, the religion cannot be referred to when the issues of globalization and global village are discussed. Using an analytical - descriptive method, this paper seeks to bring out the differences between Islam and the West regarding the fundamentals, goals, principles, strategies, rules and practical measures for resolving the problems of the universe and man. The aim of western globalism is to give rise to the secularism, materialism, profit-centeredness and welfare-demanding but the Islamic type of globalism is intended to achieve sublimity and man's prosperity on material and spiritual levels.

     Key words: globalism, globalization, fundamentals, strategy, Islam, the West.

    Mahdi Akbari, Amirreza Ashrafi, Hossein Arjini

    Abstract

    One of the fundamental issues of political philosophy in Islam is the question of components of legitimacy of sovereignty. In this paper, “legitimacy” means rational justification of “exerting authority and obedience” and its components means the elements according which a ruler or rulers of a society enjoy the right of issuing a command and of being obeyed. Given the fact that divine sovereignty is explained in terms of creation and legislation in the Holy Quran, the present paper, using a thematic interpretation method, refers to the Qur'anic verses and reviews such elements as “inherent superiority”, “real authority and ownership”, “infallible science”, and “the right of manipulation in the realm of government” which are, according to the Quran among the components of the right of sovereignty.

    Key words: legitimacy, sovereignty, philosophy, ownership, authority, science, governance.

     

     The Limitations of the Relations of Muslims with Non-Muslims in Martyr Motahhari’s View

    Zahra Pourrostaee Ardakani, Mohammadali Mohiti Ardakan

    Abstract

    One of the most important issues about human relations in Islam is determining the criterion of the relations between Muslims and non-Muslims. Using a descriptive method, the present paper seeks to expound the nature of the relations between Muslims and non-Muslims by referring to Martyr Motahhari’s works. It concludes that in Islam moderation is a key for determining the criterion of the relations between Muslims and non-Muslims, so that it neither gives a general command to sever all relations nor gives a permission. In order to preserve individuals’ religion, Muslims’ interests and dignity and independence of Islamic society, Islam has set limits on the relations with non-Muslims regarding marriage, friendship, giving aid and magnanimity, teaching and learning, cultural and trade exchange, and coexistence. Furthermore, strict rules are observed relating to non-Muslims' participation in Islamic government, and their holding important posts and positions, and their authority over Muslims is totally rejected.

    Key words: Motahhari, Islam, Muslim, non-Muslim, limitation, infidel.
