Description
"Taqiyyeh" by Mohammad Beheshti delves into the concept of Taqiyyah, which has been a topic of discussion since the early days of Islam. After the passing of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and particularly following the peace treaty between Imam Hasan al-Mujtaba (peace be upon him) and Muawiyah ibn Abi Sufyan, Taqiyyah emerged as a method to safeguard the Shia community. During the Abbasid Caliphate, this practice was used to protect Shia Muslims from persecution and oppression by tyrannical rulers who sought to eradicate them and suppress Shia thought. Since then, Taqiyyah has been a significant topic within the Shia school of thought, with ongoing discussions among religious scholars about its nature, limits, and applications.
