Majalis-ul Muayyadiya - by Al Muayyad fid-din Shirazi
Life and Lectures of Al Muayyad fid-din Shirazi
     
Contents Lectures 1 through 20 of the Majlis - (Lectures Coming soon!)

                        Preface

The present work constitutes a second publication in the series of the Research Department of the Ismailia Association, Pakistan. It is a collection of a few selected lectures of the Grand Missionary Al-Muayyad Fid Din Al-Shirazi along with a short sketch of his life that we have summarized from his autobiography, which is kept together with other manuscripts in the library of the Ismailia Association, Pakistan, Karachi.

We hope that these philosophical lectures and the adventurous life of this Grand Missionary who devoted everything that he could call his own to Ismaili faith, will prove interesting and instructive for the Ismaili readers.

It is a matter of sorrow to note that a Missionary of Al-Muayyad's eminence who had played a great part in the intellectual development of the Islamic thought in the fourth and the fifth century of Hijra, should have been ignored by most of the great historians of his period and of the succeeding generations. Had he himself not written his own life, we would have not come to have a thorough knowledge of this great intellectual personality and a Missionary of such a high achievement

The book, therefore, sees the light for the first time.

Jawad Muscati.
