Service to the Poor in the Darkness of Night
Mu’alla, who was a servant of Imam Sadiq (A.S.), narrates the following event:
"One rainy night, as Imam Sadiq (A.S.) left his house, I calmly followed him. Suddenly, something fell out of his hands onto the ground. I approached him and greeted him. He asked:" Is it you Mu’alla?"
"Yes" I replied, "O son of the messenger of Allah (S.A.W.)". He then said:" Touch the ground and hand me what you find." I stretched my hand toward the ground and found a piece of bread.
The World Assembly of Shiite Studies was established in 2003 (1382 AH) by a group of scholars from seminaries and universities. The purpose of founding this independent academic institution was to introduce the school of Shi‘ism and defend its legitimacy through education, research, translation and publication, communications, and Islamic promotion. This center has continued its mission with strength and determination and envisions a bright future ahead.
