A comprehensive history of Shi'ism from its inception in the time of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) to the end of the Minor Occultation in 941 CE, covering key events, figures, and theological developments.

"History of Shi'ism: From the Advent of Islam up to the End of Minor Occultation" provides a detailed historical account of the evolution of Shi'ism, tracing its origins from the time of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) through the early Islamic period, up until the conclusion of the Minor Occultation (Ghaybat al-Sughra) in 941 CE. The book delves into key events, such as the succession disputes following the Prophet’s death, the role of Imam Ali (AS), and the struggles of the early Imams in preserving and transmitting the message of Shi'ism amidst political challenges. It also highlights the theological development of Shi'a thought and the significance of the Minor Occultation, which marks a pivotal phase in the belief of the Twelver Shi'a sect. This book is a valuable resource for understanding the historical and doctrinal foundations of Shi'ism.
