The Etiquettes of Spiritual Wayfaring & the Journey to God

The story of this book begins with the great mystic, philosopher, and commentator of the Holy Qur’an, Allamah Sayyid Muhammad Husayn Tabataba’i. Although best known for his Tafsir al-Mizan, the heritage he bequeathed to those wishing to travel the spiritual path is no less significant. While many of Allamah’s works have made their way into the English corpus, we have yet to benefit from the treasures of one of his students, Ayatullah Ali Pahlawani Tehrani, better known as Ayatullah Sa’adat Parwar.

“The Etiquettes” consists of a letter written by Ayatullah Sa’adat Parwar and a commentary on that letter authored by his student, Hujjatul Islam wal Muslimeen Dr. Sayyid Muhammad Jawad Vazirifard. A unique characteristic of this book is that it can assist a person at any stage of his or her spiritual journey.
