The book is the fruit of holding twenty-eight consecutive sessions in Ramadan of the year 1974 by Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei.
The theme of the printed work revolves around probing into basic principles involved in Islamic thought through a coordinated community approach and focusing of the Holy Quran.
The honorable lecturer, while putting a number of Quranic verses in each session, has recounted on certain dimensions of monotheism, prophethood and ‘Velayat’.
Interestingly enough, the Leader, by bringing up the topic of ‘faith’ in early sessions, takes the audience away from abstract concepts in a bid to familiarize them with practical outcomes of adhering to these principles in personal and social life.
