Abstract
Sharīf Murtaḍā (d: 436 A.H.), was undoubtedly one of the foremost Imami theologians, who had a great impact on the development and evolution of various religious disciplines in the Twelver Shīʿīsm. Despite the works and research that have been published so far about some of his writings and intellectual aspects, there are still many deficiencies in this regard, and for a comprehensive and accurate understanding of Sharīf Murtaḍā’s works and opinions in various disciplines, more research and investigations should be done. Recently, an outstanding contribution made by two prominent scholars and professors of Islamic studies, Mr. Hassan Ansari and Mrs. Sabine Schmidtke to introduce Sharif Murtaḍā’s oeuvres and their manuscripts. The aim of the present paper is to describe the most important features of the work. this large two-volume book on the reception of Sharīf Murtaḍā’s oeuvres and thought in their historical context, should be considered the most detailed book written in English about an Imami scholar. The main purpose of producing this work is to compile a comprehensive bibliography of Sharīf Murtaḍā’s writings and to examine the manuscripts of his works with a historical and archeological approach.
