Resplendence of Wilāyah: An Analytical Biography of Imam ͑Ali is the English translation of Ayatollah Ja͑far Subhani’s Furūgh-i Wilāyat. This book categorizes the life of Imam ͑Ali into five distinct periods: his early years following the start of the Prophetic mission (bi ͑thah); his life after the migration to Medina; the years following the death of the Prophet and prior to his own caliphate; and his caliphate leading to his martyrdom. It is distinguished by a thoughtful, philosophical approach that situates the dynamics of Imam ͑Ali’s life within the broader context of human history. Comprehensive, readable, and reliable, it offers profound insights into the life of this extraordinary man.
