Imam Jafar Sadiq (AS), Master of Islamic Schools and Educator of the Followers of Pure Muhammadan Islam (PBUH)

Imam Sadiq (AS) is the founder of the Jafari school, the master of the heads of Islamic schools, and the educator of the followers of pure Muhammadan Islam (PBUH). He disseminated and institutionalized Islamic laws, Sharia, teachings, culture, and rituals in such a deep and worthy way in society that even his students reached the level of deducing Islamic principles and interpreting divine laws, and each of them took steps and fought to guide Muslims to the best of their ability.

He was the heir to the blood of Imam Hussein (AS) and the martyrs of Karbala; the same great people who were martyred at the hands of the deviants of the Prophet's (PBUH) nation in the desert of Karbala. Those people who were unaware of God, who were apparently Muslims, performed ablution but shed the blood of the son of the Messenger of God (PBUH) in the name of a holy act and took his pure Ahlul Bayt captive. Yes! After the death of Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa (PBUH), a large part of his followers went astray and instead of the path of truth, they took the wrong path.

Imam Sajjad (PBUH), Imam Baqir (PBUH) and especially Imam Jafar Sadiq (PBUH) took on the responsibility of reforming the deviated nation of the Messenger of God (PBUH) after the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (PBUH) and his loyal companions. By explaining Islamic rulings and teachings, they awakened Muslims from their sleep of neglect and guided them towards the pure Islam of Muhammad (PBUH). They also spread the sciences of jurisprudence throughout the world, especially among Muslims.

Hazrat Jafar ibn Muhammad (PBUH) was born on 17 Rabi’ al-Awwal in the year 83 AH, coinciding with the birthday of the Great Prophet (PBUH). During his blessed life, he rendered valuable services to spread and expand Islamic laws, teachings and culture so that the followers of the pure Islam of Muhammad (PBUH) would be educated and the scourges of innovation, excess, excess and superstition would be removed from the fold of Islam and the Islamic Ummah.

Imam Jafar Sadiq (PBUH) has a very high and lofty position in the sight of God and the Holy Prophet of Islam. Therefore, the intercession of his followers on the Day of Judgment is a divine message and glad tidings for His satisfaction. Following such a noble and learned personality is necessary and essential for every human being; because he is the one who charts the path of salvation and happiness.

After his activities and achievements, the enemies of Islam were never able to strike Muslims and their beliefs as they had planned. In one of his greatest and most enlightening speeches, the Imam shot a salvo at the plots of the enemies and said: “Anything you heard from the Prophet (PBUH) and us, the Ahlul Bayt (PBUH), that is not in accordance with the Quran, throw it against the wall; Because it is a lie and has no truth.”

Yes, Imam Jafar Sadiq (AS) destroyed the reputation of the religious shopkeepers who fabricated the hadiths of the Prophet (PBUH) and the infallible Imams (PBUH) and appropriated Islam for their own benefit. He introduced the divine and pure Islam of Muhammad (PBUH) to the world. Imam Jafar Sadiq (AS) was the tireless savior of the religion of his grandfather, Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH), and still, after more than fourteen hundred years, is the standard-bearer of truth.
