IN THE
NAME OF ALLAH, MOST GRACIOUS, MOST MERCIFUL
In
the years 1352 -4, a candle lit, shone, and its light spread little by
little.
Thus was the beginning;
mercy of Allah the Almighty and sufferings borne by faithful people who
loved Islam as religion and as mission!
Thus was the beginning;
the many letters of the Iranians who roved throughout the globe for
study and trade…
Faithful youths and men
fulfilling what they had promised Allah... they saw the world sinking in
confusion, deviation and suspicion… they wondered where the propagation
of Islam was, and where its human mission was!
They lived there and saw
closely the confusion of the people—Muslims and non-Muslims, each
looking for the straight way.
Furthermore, the fruitful
meetings with his Eminence Ayatollah Tabataba’iy, Allah may have mercy
upon him, and with Professor Mahmoud al-Shihabi. Allah may have mercy
upon him, just after his return from a journey then, and with other
ulema and Shia scholars—all were the motives beyond the establishment of
the Ansariyan Publications in the holy city of Qum, granted with
blessings of Allah the Almighty, His Messenger, and the Ahl al-Bayt.
Like any beginning, it began its way with slow but sure steps and when
the glorious Islamic Revolution triumphed, the Ansariyan Publications
flourished and grew to be so fruitful.
It is worth mentioning
that the Ansariyan Publications, with all its great achievements and
contributions in the enrichment of the Arabic, Islamic and universal
library, has not been supported by any official or personal side.
The Ansariyan Publications
is in spite of the problems, shortcomings, scarce of potentials,
continuously taking pride in the remarkable services that it has been
presenting to the world.
This site is the fruit of
the Ansariyan Publications’ efforts throughout thirty years of
continuous serious work. Nevertheless, it considers all its achievements
as the first steps in its way, seeking help from Allah and seeking the
prayer of our Imam al-Mahdi to be successful so as to keep on its
blessed job willingly and sincerely.
Dear user, whose heart is
in pain for wronged Islam; whose heart is occupied with the love for the
Prophet and his family; whose spirit is filled up with the loyalty to
Amir al-Mu’minin Ali, peace be upon him… today, you undertake a serious
responsibility through your words, pen, position, skills to guide, and
financial abilities, and be it known to you that Allah shall ask us
about this responsibility.
Come on, o brethren in
belief and humanity, to work and cooperate.
Finally, we pray to
Almighty Allah to guide our ummah to success for sake of bringing the
true word of Islam to the fore.
