tanyushenka: “The Nahj-al-Balagh or Way of Eloquence is a collection of sayings and writings attributed to the 4th Caliph of Islam, Hazrat Ali, cousin and son-in-law of Prophet Muhammad. These texts deal with aspects of metaphysics, theology, Islamic jurisprudence, the Hadith, the Imamate, ethics, social philosophy, history, politics, administration, civics, science, rhetoric, poetry, literature etc. This is a most important text for Shia Islam, third only to the Quran and Hadith. In this manuscript, the Nahj al-Balagha has been calligraphed by Muhammad Ali Mazandarani who has written the Arabic text in the Naskh script, giving Persian translations under each line in Persian Nasta’liq characters.”Date: 1650/1700(Source: National Museum, New Delhi) -- source link
