This school has been able to train many talented personalities by quenching them with this gushing fountain. This school has presented scholars to the Muslim ummah who, by following the Holy Prophet‘s Household (‘a), have occupied the station of clarifying doubts and skepticisms brought forth by various creeds and intellectual currents both inside and outside Muslim society. Throughout the past centuries, they have presented the firmest answers and solutions to these doubts. Anchored in the responsibilities it is shouldering, the Ahl al-Bayt (‘a) World Assembly has embarked upon defending the sanctity of risalah {messenger ship} and its authentic beliefs— truths which have always been opposed by the chiefs and leaders of anti-Islamic sects, religions and trends. In this sacred path, the Assembly regards itself as a follower of the upright pupils of the school of the Ahl al-Bayt (‘a)—those who have always been ready to refute those accusations and calumnies and have tried to be always in the frontline of this struggle on the basis of the expediencies of time and space. The experiences in this field, which have been preserved in the books of scholars belonging to the school of the Ahl al-Bayt (‘a), are unique in their own right.

  • Haj Al-Qiran Hajj Al-Qiran Involves Combining Umrah and Hajj, with Only One Ihram for Both
    Haj Al-Qiran Hajj al-Qiran involves combining Umrah and Hajj, with only one Ihram for both Stages of Al-Qiran In this section we give details of each stage of Hajj al-Qiran and provide advice on the rituals that must be performed if the Hajj is to be completed satisfactorily. Ihram Bathe yourself (ghusl). Put on the white clothing of Ihram. The white garment of the Ihram consists of two pieces of white cloth: the cloth covering the upper part of the body is the Rida'; the cloth covering the lower part of the body is the Izar. After donning the white garment of Ihram and verbally declaring the intention to perform Umrah and the specific type of Hajj, recite the Talbiyah. Now that you are in a state of Ihram, you are subject to a number of prohibitions. You must NOT: wear sewn clothes cut or pluck hair clip nails cover your head wear perfume engage in sexual intercourse Other prohibitions include entering into a marriage contract, hunting, or cutting down trees in the Sacred Precinct. Performing the Welcome Tawaf and Sa'y The correct procedure for these rites is set out in the Rituals of Umrah but we repeat them here for the convenience of the user: Enter the Holy Sanctuary (al Masjid al Haram), preferably right foot first through the Bab as-Salam gate, reciting the Talbiyah: 'Labbayk, Allahumma Labbayk. Labbayk, La Shareeka laka labbayk. Innal-hamda wan-ni'mata laka wal-mulk La shareeka lak' The above means: 'Here I am O Allah, (in response to Your call), here I am.
