&nbsp;Martyr General Qassim Soleimani (1957-2020), known as “Haj Qassim”, was the former commander of the Quds Force and the axis of resistance against the Zionist Regime and America.He was the commander of the 41st army of Tharullah during the holy defense period and one of the commanders of Walfajr eight, Karbala four and Karbala five operations. In 2001, Qassim Soleimani was appointed as the commander of the Quds Force by the Supreme Commander-in-Chief Ayatollah Khamenei, and after the emergence of ISIS in Iraq and Syria, by being present in these areas and organizing popular forces, he fought against this group and played a special role in the destruction of ISIS regime in the occupied areas.Undoubtedly, he was one of the most important people involved in the security of the country of Iran, who, using the power of faith and martyrdom, followed the goals of the Islamic Republic system and the strategy of defending the oppressed and the cause of the Palestinian freedom in a global scope and with full authority. His mastery and cleverness in implementing military tactics and thwarting the enemy’s plans were such that he was nicknamed “Shadow General”.Finally, at the age of 63, General Soleimani was martyred in the morning of Friday, January 13, 2018 in Iraq in a terriost operation by the United States.

This clip tells a part of the will of Sardar Haj Qassim Soleimani to the scholars and is very attractive.

On the pretext of the anniversary of the martyrdom of Sardar Soleimani (the will of Haj Qassim to scholars)

The Islamic Seminary of Khuzestan and especially the city of Ahwaz has a lively, active and exciting environment. In this place we benefited a lot from the presence of the scholars and also had a meeting with the new director of the province, the respected Shaykh Bilādiyān. He was a virtuous person, very respectful and well - mannered, and had a knowledgeable and revolutionary personality.In addition, we had a meeting with Ayatollah Jazāirī, who has in – depth advanced jurisprudence lessons in Ahvaz. The picture related to his advanced jurisprudence lessons can be seen below.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:62.99%;"><img src="https://fms.s3.ir-thr-at1.arvanstorage.com/khozestan1_22b85d89ee_5dffbe70d1.jpg"><figcaption>One of the Advanced Jurisprudence Lessons of Ayatollah Jazāirī</figcaption></figure>During our two day stay in Khuzestan, as can be seen in the picture below, he was slightly ill, but he warmly welcomed the department of contemporary jurisprudence and after I presented a complete report on the achievements of contemporary jurisprudence at his home, he became so happy that he straightaway accepted our proposal, and it was decided that during this year, in his main advanced jurisprudence lessons, he would devote one session a week in discussing a nominal entity.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:63%;"><img src="https://fms.s3.ir-thr-at1.arvanstorage.com/khozestan3_b89572f71e_b8066d5f33.jpg"></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:62.97%;"><img src="https://fms.s3.ir-thr-at1.arvanstorage.com/khozestan4_033f5a18ce_77867fae5b.jpg"><figcaption>Meeting Ayatollah Jazāirī</figcaption></figure>Another one of the blessings of this journey was meeting Ayatollah Muḥsin Ḥaydarī who is one of the teachers of advanced jurisprudence from Ahwaz. During the meeting that was held in his school as shown in the picture below with the professors and managers that work for him, the interesting thing to note was that he teaches the topic of guardianship of the jurist and had also published a book in Arabic regarding the Shia Islamic view on the type of government administration that was published in the Arab world, and more interestingly, the esteemed professors of his school were very seriously following the latest topics of contemporary jurisprudence.&nbsp;<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:62.42%;"><img src="https://fms.s3.ir-thr-at1.arvanstorage.com/khozestan2_8d8b3722ac_6ebe780ff4.jpg"><figcaption>Meeting Ayatollah Muḥsin Ḥaydarī who is one of the teachers of advanced jurisprudence from Ahwaz along with professors and managers that work for him.</figcaption></figure>He said that after his current discussion of advanced jurisprudence, which is about partnership (Musharikah) and lands (which is a problem in that region), he will start teaching another one of the discussions of contemporary jurisprudence.P.S. Something that you may not know is that a work - related trip with the current 63-year-old director of the Islamic Seminary means work and lots of work without a moment to breathe... You may not believe it, but the only free time I had was when I went to bring something as a souvenir for my little children when I was returning to the airport, that too because the plane was delayed for a few minutes, and if the esteemed director of the Islamic Seminary had known about this delay, he would have ordered a meeting and resolved the issue on the spot.&nbsp;Any role that can be played by reasonExcept the role of&nbsp; Beloved who is unhappy...&nbsp;

Last week we had a brief meeting with the esteemed director and officials of the Islamic Seminary. To be fair, even though various meetings were held continuously from sunrise to midnight, the results of these meetings were so attractive and promising that they also relieved the earlier fatigue.

Report of the Journey to Khuzestan as narrated by the Director of the Department of Contemporary Jurisprudence

Ayatullahs Shab Zinde Daar, Shaheedi and Qaeni along with the head of the Office of Contemporary Jurisprudence, Sheikh Ithna 'Asheri visited all the present exhibition booths over their 4 hour visit at Masjid Jamkaran and were acquainted with the latest achievements of the Islamic Seminaries of Qum and Isfahan. Similarly, Sheikh Rustam Nejad, with patience and cordial accompaniment, presented comprehensive details of the activities by the Specialized Centers of the Islamic Seminaries.&nbsp;<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:83.45%;"><img src="https://fms.s3.ir-thr-at1.arvanstorage.com/photo_2022_11_17_00_23_40_7491098083_bda34ff04e.jpg"></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:82.86%;"><img src="https://fms.s3.ir-thr-at1.arvanstorage.com/photo_2022_11_17_00_23_34_d2d7cea59c_5f1fb59262.jpg"></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:82.19%;"><img src="https://fms.s3.ir-thr-at1.arvanstorage.com/photo_2022_11_17_00_23_19_a2af5b88ec_db4db5f864.jpg"></figure>The presence of some members of the scientific council of the Office of Contemporary Jurisprudence at the exhibition of the scientific achievements of the seminary's specialized educational units Facts about the Moglistan Library that you may not know!&nbsp;&nbsp;- One of the booths which was very interesting for all the teachers was the book of the Massage Amoozish 'Aali Hawza 'Ilmiyya of Isfahan who, through excellent presentation, showed that in this educational centre, specialized (fields) are presented in every field of study for the students of Isfahan and they have also published a collection of works by Ayatullah Mazahiri&nbsp;&nbsp;- However the hand-written copy of this collection was also very interesting. As it can be seen in the picture below hand-written copies from many countries in the world have been collected, scanned and catalogued and will later be available for researchers whereby the extent of their work is rare. I instantly remembered that recently a piece of news had been circulating that a library had been found in Moglistan which contains books which the Moguls, after occupying Baghdad, took back with them to Moglistan and it is probable that new books from Islamic sources have also been found within them (this collection).&nbsp;<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:82.95%;"><img src="https://fms.s3.ir-thr-at1.arvanstorage.com/photo_2022_11_17_00_16_40_83f637a3ff_0d2080caa0.jpg"></figure>I took the opportunity and asked Sheikh Majid Hadi Zadeh who was the head of that booth whether he has any plans for Moglistan? In complete surprise he said that the origin of this news has no reality!! The explanation is that the said library is in Tibet and was used by Buddhist nuns before and lately they removed it's walls and is now available for public visitors. However, simultaneous to this measure, the administration of Iraq announced in a news report that they intend to catalogue a few thousand hand-written copies and the simultaneous publication of both these news reports caused the illusion of the existence of those books in the Tibetan library. The story of Moglistan could have made this news report more interesting and hence for this reason they flew from Tibet to the Mongols.&nbsp;&nbsp;Authored by Hussain Ithna 'Asheri

On  Friday 4th Aban (26th October 2022), we were granted (the opportunity) to be at the service of the respected Teachers of Scientific Council of the Office of Contemporary Jurisprudence at the Specialized Centers of the Islamic Seminaries located in Jamkaran for a complete 4 hours visit.
