{ "item_title" : "ʿ", "item_author" : [" Saʿdī Al-Hāshimī "], "item_description" : "Abd Allah Ibn Saba: Fact Not Fiction presents a structured academic inquiry into one of the most debated figures in early Islamic historical discourse. Drawing upon transmitted reports and critical engagement with later interpretations, the work evaluates claims regarding the existence, role, and attributed doctrines of Ibn Saba within the formative period of Islamic history.The study proceeds through a methodical examination of modern scholarly denials-particularly those advanced by figures such as Taha Hussein and others-placing these arguments in contrast with earlier textual sources and transmitted narratives. Through this comparison, the author situates the discussion within a broader framework of Islamic historiography, where the integrity of transmission, the evaluation of narrators, and the preservation of doctrinal clarity remain central concerns.Attention is given to beliefs attributed to Ibn Saba and his followers, including assertions regarding concealed revelation and exaggerated doctrinal positions. These are examined not polemically, but through a disciplined process of source analysis, drawing upon narrations reported within early literature and evaluating them in light of established scholarly method.The work further highlights the role of the Ahl al-Bayt and early juristic authorities in addressing such claims, demonstrating how principles of verification, restraint, and adherence to transmitted knowledge function within the broader framework of Islamic scholarship. In doing so, it reflects a commitment to the methodological rigor characteristic of classical Islamic legal and theological inquiry.This volume is best understood as a contribution to Islamic legal-intellectual history, where questions of historical transmission intersect with doctrinal integrity and scholarly responsibility. It offers insight into how early narratives are assessed, contested, and preserved within a tradition governed by principles akin to those found in uṣūl al-fiqh-namely, evidence evaluation, consistency, and disciplined reasoning.Intended for scholars, students of Islamic studies, and institutional libraries, this work provides a measured and textually grounded engagement with a complex historical subject. It affirms the importance of approaching early Islamic narratives through structured analysis rather than conjecture, preserving both historical continuity and methodological clarity.Content- IntroductionThe Stance of the OrientalistsThe Followers of the OrientalistsDr. Taha Hussein Proof of Dr. Taha Hussein Refutation of Dr. Taha Hussein Dr. Muhammad Kamil Husayn Dr. Hamid Hifni Dawood Refutation of Dr. Hamid Hifni Dawood Shiah Who Deny the existence of Ibn SabaMuhammad Jawad MughniyyahMurtadā 'Askarī'Alī al-WardıDr. Kamil Mustafa al-ShaibiRefutation of al-Wardi and al-ShaibiDr. Abdullah FayyadTalib al-Rifa'iRefutation of These Assertions and a Brief Overview of the Sources which Prove the Existence of Ibn Saba'Beliefs of Ibn Saba' and his DeviationThe Stance of 'Ali and the Ahl al-BaytIbn Saba' Propagates his Beliefs in al-Mada'inThe Narration of 'Abd al-Jabbar al-Hamdani Regarding the Standpoint ofIbn Saba' and his FollowersThe Reaction of Ibn Saba's Followers When They Learnt of 'Ali'sMartyrdomThe Stance of the Ahl al-Bayt Towards Ibn Saba'", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/04/928/837/1049288378_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "14.99", "online_price" : "14.99", "our_price" : "14.99", "club_price" : "14.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
