ABOUT THE BOOK

“A Cursory Glance at the Theory of Wilāyat al-Faqīh” is a profound and timely exploration of one of the most pivotal doctrines of contemporary Islamic political thought. Authored by the renowned scholar Prof. Āyatullāh Muḥammad Taqī Miṣbāḥ Yazdī and translated into English by Mansoor Limba, PhD, SCL, this book serves as both a primer and an in-depth treatise on the concept of Wilāyat al-Faqīh — the Guardianship of the Jurist.

With clarity and intellectual rigor, the book navigates through the essential questions of governance in Islam, the inseparability of religion and politics, the role of the people in an Islamic government, and the legitimacy of leadership in the contemporary time. Drawing from the Qur’an, the Sunnah, and reasoned argumentation, the author dismantles misconceptions about secularism and decisively affirms the enduring relevance of religious authority in state affairs.

This work is more than an academic study; it is a defense of a living system that has not only theorized but also successfully implemented religious governance in the modern era. By revisiting the revolutionary legacy of Imām Khomeinī and the triumph of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Prof. Yazdī underscores the resilience of a political order anchored in religious legitimacy and popular participation under the guidance of the jurisprudent (faqīh).

Accessible yet comprehensive, this book is essential reading for students of Islamic studies, political theory, and anyone seeking to understand the intellectual foundations and practical realities of Islamic governance today. Whether you are new to the subject or looking to deepen your knowledge, this compelling treatise will challenge, enlighten, and inspire.
