TEHRAN – A book titled “Safeer E Noor” by Tasleem Reza Khan and translated from Urdu into Farsi has been released in Iran in a bid to shed light on the life and endeavors of the Pakistani figure Syed Arif Hussain al Hussaini.
The book “Safeer E Noor” meaning “The Ambassador of Light” published by Surah Meher Publications, spans 428 pages and explores the biography of Shahid Allameh Syed Arif Hussain al-Husseini.
In two chapters, the book explores a Pakistani Shia cleric and leader of the Jafariya movement.
In 1967, Arif al-Husseini attended Najaf Ashraf University for religious studies during Imam Khomeini’s exile in Iraq, when the Baath Party held power.
In Najaf, he met Imam Khomeini, embraced his ideas, and became both a disciple and a soldier, admiring his jurisprudential, moral, mystical, and political qualities.
