Allameh Tabatabaei’s Book Published in Latin America
It has been translated by Colombian Islamologiost Xavier Urubio under the supervision of the Andishe Sharq (oriental thought) Arts and Cultural Institute, Fars news agency reported.
The institute had previously published translations of two other books by Allameh Tabatabaei: “Quran in Islam” and “An Introduction to Islam”.
The book “Islam and Contemporary Human” seeks to establish the fact that based on the teachings of the Quran, human beings are monotheist inherently and that messengers of God have come to remind them of their monotheistic Fitrat (nature).
Allameh Tabatabaei (1903 – 1981) was one of the most prominent thinkers of philosophy and contemporary Shia Islam.
He is famous for his Tafsir al-Mizan, a twenty-volume work of Quranic exegesis, which he worked on from 1954 until 1972.
