The book is well known as \"Ihtijaj al-Tabrisi.\" History During the history of Islam, great religious figures by the motivation of proving the right and refuting the wrong, wrote books under the title of \"al-Ihtijaj\" or dedicated some chapters of their books to this topic. There are about 20 books by the title of \"al-Ihtijaj\" among Shi'a early sources, the earliest of which is \"al-Ihtijaj\" written by Muhammad b.

The only problem of the book is that most of the hadiths in it are narrated as al-hadith al-Mursal and there is no chain of transmitters for them in the book. In the introduction of the book the author writes: \"Except for those hadiths that I have narrated form Tafsir al-Imam al-'Askari (a), I mentioned all hadiths in the book without their chain of transmitters, because whether they are unanimously accepted or agree with our beliefs or are narrated in ours and the opponents' books. I narrated the hadiths of the ascribed exegesis to Imam al-'Askari (a) by its chain of narrators: because these hadiths are not as famous as the other hadiths in the book.\" According to this paragraph, Shi'a scholars have relied on and accepted the hadiths in the book, although they do not have chain of narrators. From Great Scholar's Perspective Many of great Shi'a scholars, such as al-Shaykh al-Hurr al-'Amili in Amal al-amil, Khwansari in Rawdat al-jannat and al-Khoei in Mu'jam Rijal al-Hadith, regarded this book as precious, good and very useful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContent \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: contains hadiths about prohibition of arguing and debating, and condemning them, and the cause of the writing the book; Arguments and debates from the Prophet (s) and the Imams (s) about the roots and branches of faith; The Event of Ghadir al-Khumm and Fadak and the arguments presented by Imam Ali (a), lady Fatima (a), other Imams (a) and other companions about these two event.
