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

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.

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.

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. 

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.

Any role that can be played by reason

Except the role of  Beloved who is unhappy...
