Shiaology

We reach the final part of our discussion about the Ayatullahs with Sayed Mahdi Almodarrasi. We discuss the concept of Wilayat-e-Faqee and consider what the Shia world faces beyond Grand Ayatullah Sistani. This is the last episode of the series, inshallah I'll be back in 2022 with more guests and topics to discuss.

This is part 2 of my discussion with Sayed Mahdi about the Ayatullahs In this episode I discuss the process to becoming an Ayatullah and how to decide what Marja to follow. I then discuss the very important topic of Taba'eid. The concept of following multiple Marajahs - is it possible?  

This is the first of a 3 part discussion about the Ayatullahs. In this episode I discuss the journey people make to become scholars, Marjas and Ayatullahs. I speak with Sayed Mahdi Al Modarresi about the HAWZA - the grand institutions setup to educate students about the Shia faith. Sayed Mahdi's lectures can be found on his  YouTube channel

I'm joined once again by Hassanain Rajabali in a follow up on our discussion last time on Infallibility. We continue the conversation and cover the idea of Divine Leadership. How the infallibility of the Prophet and the Ahlul-Bayt determined their leadership qualities.

Excited to be joined by my guest Hassanain Rajabali to discuss the important topic of Infallibility.  What is it? How does it apply to our faith and practices? This and much more is discussed in our conversation.  Hassanain Rajabali's lectures can be found on his YouTube channel Enlight Media
