		Ali Ibn Musa ar-Rida attained the Imamate at 35 after the brutal persecution and demise of his father, Musa al-Kazim, at the hands of the ‘Abbasid Caliph Haarun ar-Rashid.
		Imam Ali ar-Rida [a] refused vigorously but the Caliph insinuated that refusal would not be an alternative as was in the case of the Shura formed by Caliph Umar al-Khattab before him.
		Imam Ali ar-Rida [a] himself was able to give instruction on the correct interpretations of the Holy Quran and endeavored to make the Caliph fear God and pointed to him his errors in office as well as in his daily life.

		The term Shi`i refers to the partisans of the fourth Caliph Ali, who was Muhammad's son in law through his daughter Fatima, the last Caliph to be elected, as well as the last to be drawn from the original nucleus of converts from the Mecca - Medina period.
		As it turned out, it would be some 24 years before Ali would become Caliph, and in that time, a sizeable group of partisans formed around the charismatic and passionate man. Ali's election and rule turned out to be very tumultuous, and he was murdered during the 5th year of his reign.
		Ali's eldest son Hasan came to an accommodation with Mu'awiyaa, and it was not until his death and the rise of Ali's second son, Husayn to leadership of the Shi`i faction that the split occurred.

	RASHID RIDA ON THE BAHA'I FAITH
		Rida followed this article with a sequel entitled "Religious Propaganda: Its Rules and Methodology."24 In it he attempted to demonstrate that the prerequisite for the spread of a religion is that its propaganda be conducted soundly.
		Rida showed particular displeasure with the Bab's ban on the study of logic, metaphysics, theology, and the principles of jurisprudence.31 He insisted that the Qur’an encourages science, but that the Bab's strictures against rational sciences meant that all knowledge was forbidden save that which derived from him.
		Rida, meanwhile, was desperately attempting to maintain a rationalized version of the Sunni Islam of his village notable family in the face of his own reduction to the lowest rung of Cairo's middle classes.

		Verily, concerning this my father (Ali) related to me from my grandfather, the Messenger of Allah: Forsooth the world is a prison for the believer and a paradise for the unbeliever, and death is the bridge for the former to their gardens, and for the latter, to their hell-fire.
		He said: For the believer it is like taking off clothes which arc dirty and lousy; or breaking heavy shackles and fetters, and changing into the most gorgeous and perfumed of apparel, and (riding on) well-trained mounts, and (alighting in) familiar resting-places.
		‘Ali was asked concerning death and he said: It is the verification of things that have not yet happened.

		The father of ‘Ali ibn Ibrahim [namely Ibrahim ibn Hashim] is not only reliable; he is one of the most reliable and trustworthy narrators.
		I was on the verge of closing the file on the Fadak issue and a discussion of the various arguments issue when my eye fell on a narration which throws light upon the condition of those who are bent upon finding fault with Abu Bakr, by whichsoever means they can, legitimate or illegitimate.
		Abul Hasan [Imam ‘Ali ar-Rida] came to [the ‘Abbasid khalifah] al-Mahdi and saw him redressing grievances and returning property to its owners that was unrightfully appropriated.

	IMAM ALI, NAJAF & OTHER SHRINES- Buddhist influence in Islam.
		Ali’s election as the Caliph would have denied the chance to the older generation of power brokers, so they played politics and got their way.
		Ali was a devout Muslim with an outstanding reputation for justice, unlike Othman or the Umayyad dynasty that followed him, mired in nepotism with worldly and autocratic ways.
		Therefore the earliest surviving tombs belong to Shi'ite persona; the shrine of Fatima, sister of the Imam 'Ali ar-Rida at Qum, and that of the Imam Ali in Najaf.

		Imam `Ali ar-Rida was poisoned on 17th Safar 203 AH and with effect from the same date Imam Muhammad al-Jawad was commissioned by Allah to hold the responsibility of Imamate.
		The Holy Imam al-Jawad was the symbol of Porphet Muhammad's affability and Imam `Ali's attainments.
		Consequently, al-Ma'mun was forced, from a political point of view, to establish contacts with the tribe of Banu Fatimah at the expense of the ties with Banu `Abbas and thereby win the favour of the Shi`ah.

		Amongst the Persians were many adherents of the house of 'Ali, and these regarded all the khalifs, except 'Ali himself, as usurpers.
		In this letter he inserted "if at any time the Commander of the Faithful act perfidiously towards his uncle 'Abdallah ibn 'Ali, his wives shall be divorced from him, his horses confiscated to the service of God, his slaves set free, and Muslims absolved from allegiance to him".
		At length the khalif was made aware of the critical state of affairs and warned that unless he went to Baghdad and took matters in hand for himself the khalifate would pass out of his hands.

		Unlike the Caliph, the Imam must be descended from Muhammad, through his daughter Fatima Zahra and her husband Ali.
		This belief is what led to the split between the Shi'a and Sunni, as the Shi'a felt that Ali was the rightful successor of Muhammad (which Shi'as believe is indicated by his actions at Ghadir Khom), while the Sunni felt that it was Abu Bakr.
		Each Imam was the son of the previous Imam, except for Husayn who was the brother of Hasan, and a son of the first Imam, Ali.

		As an example, 'Ali ibn Musa ar-Rida (the Eighth Imam) said, in the course of a hadith, "The Imam after me is my son, Muhammad, and after him his son 'Ali, and after 'Ali his son, Hasan, and after Hasan his son Hujjatu'l- Qa'im, who is awaited during his occultation and obeyed during his manifestation.
		This period of seventy years is known as the minor occultation (al-ghaybat as-sughra), and at the end of that period the major occultation (al-ghaybat al-kubra) began.
		Al-Mahdi(A.S.), the promised one, is from the family of the Prophet and is a descendent of Hazrat 'Ali and Hazrat Fatimah Zahra (A.S.), and in many of these hadiths it is mentioned that he is from the line of Imam Husayn (A.S.).

		On the other hand, 'Ali and Al-Fadl were the two insuperable obstacles in Al-Ma'mun's way, and by their disappearance the Gordian knot was solved.
		And so, while in a letter to Al-Hasan he lamented the death of 'Ali, the Caliph at the same time wrote to the citizens of Bagdad saying that as 'Ali, against whose accession they had been so bitter, was gone, nothing was now left to prevent their returning to their loyalty.
		But considering the length of his reign and his magnanimous attitude towards the rebels of Bagdad, the balance must incline to the verdict of leniency and moderation in a Caliphate which, taken as a whole, is one of the most brilliant in the history of Islam.
