- [Book Review — Islam Within: Exploring Its Spiritual Teachings](https://riseislamicstudies.com/4953/book-review-islam-within/): Mysticism has always occupied an uneasy place within Islamic thought — venerated as its spiritual core, yet often mistrusted as its deviation. Islam Within: Exploring Its Spiritual Teachings, authored by Mohammad Fanaei Eshkevari and Jalaleddin Fanaei Eshkevari, enters this long-standing debate with both scholarly precision and spiritual conviction. The book argues that ‘irfan (Islamic gnosis or mysticism) is not a marginal phenomenon but the inward essence of Islam itself. It aims to show that intellect, revelation, and mystical intuition are not competing routes to truth, but dimensions of a single divine reality.

It argues that the human sciences are not merely descriptive disciplines but also contain normative and prescriptive dimensions that shape individual conduct, social organization, and civilizational direction.

The Revolution began with the transformation of the country’s political system and the establishment of a new order grounded in the political theory of Shīʿī Islam. Yet, the Revolution was never merely a political shift. Just as Islamic political jurisprudence is rooted in Islam’s foundational beliefs in ontology, theology, and anthropology, those same core doctrines carry their own implications for all other human and social domains. Further, due to its comprehensive and timeless character, the revealed religion of Islam possesses distinctive perspectives on various spheres of individual and social human life—such as politics, ethics, economics, education, psychology, sociology, and beyond.

At its core lies the Jawāhirī approach, which laid the foundations of Shīʿī ijtihād and preserved the scholarly legacy of earlier ḥawza (seminary) scholars.

- [New Intellectual Reflections and Scientific Developments in the Qom Seminary: A Review of the Centennial Re-establishment Conference](https://riseislamicstudies.com/3110/qom-seminary-centennial-conference-review/): The Qom Seminary is one of the two major centers of Shīʿī scholarship. Although its roots go back to the early centuries of Islam, the seminary was re-established and revitalized in 1922 by Ayatollah ʿAbd al-Karīm Ḥāʾirī Yazdī. Throughout the 14th century SH, with the leadership of Ayatollah Sayyid Ḥusayn Burūjirdī, Qom rose to become one of the two leading Shīʿī seminaries, standing alongside the Najaf Seminary. Following the restrictions faced by the Najaf Seminary during the 1970s to 1990s, and with the relocation of a number of its teachers and students to Qom, the Qom Seminary emerged as the primary scholarly hub of Shiʿism. It developed into a vibrant institution composed of marājiʿ al-taqlīd (religious authorities), mujtahids, teachers, students, researchers, and authors, supported by hundreds of schools, libraries, research centers, and academic-cultural institutions active in diverse fields of religious studies. In this way, Qom became the principal center for the production, teaching, and dissemination of religious thought in the Shīʿī world.Qom, from its very beginning, was not only a place for the traditional teaching of Islamic fields such as fiqh (jurisprudence), uṣūl al-fiqh (principles of jurisprudence), and kalām (theology), but gradually became a center for the interaction between tradition and intellectual innovation. Over the decades, the seminary has played a decisive role in shaping intellectual currents, training mujtahids and scholars, and even influencing the socio-political transformations of Iran and beyond. For this reason, examining the intellectual and scientific reflections of the Qom Seminary is not merely a historical or intra-religious matter, but part of the broader trajectory of Islamic thought in the modern era.
