Abridged Researches for Youth and Non-Specialists

The Aal al-Bayt Institute aims at making available the material of the researches and studies of the books of the medium-term projects to the general public, especially young people by rewriting them in abridged form. Thus, the Institute published four abridgements of these books entitled: “Contemporary Islamic Studies”.

Hence, the Institute started to issue English translations of the said abridgements, with the aim of acquainting non-Arabic speaking Muslims and others with the content of these projects. In 1992 it published an English abridgement of “The Treatment of non-Muslims in Islam”.
