A Shiite Encyclopedia

The “Shia Encyclopedia”, forms itself as the collection of articles that emanated from an intra-faith dialogue, ranging from exploring commonalities, differences and a train of thought specific to the Shia (also known as the school of the Ahlul Bayt). This encyclopedia is a collection of information which addresses inter-school related issues between the school of Ahlul Bayt and the Ahlul Sunnah wal Jama’ah. The information presented in this encyclopedia is based on the understanding and the knowledge of the contributors. The subjects are classified and are divided into several chapters, so that one can get an overhead view of all the major issues. For details please click HERE. Source: Ahlul Bayt Digital Islamic Library Project, Al-Islam.org
