Kirmānī Shaykhism and the ijtihād. A Study of Abū al-Qāsim Khān Ibrāhīmī's Ijtihād va taqlīd. Würzburg
Résumé
This research is a study of Abū al-Qāsim Khān Ibrāhīmī [Abū al-Qāsim Khān] (d. 1969)'s Ijtihād wa taqlīd, a contemporary Shaykhī Kirmānī literary text. This work is a particularly clear exposé of Shaykhī Kirmānī opinions on ijtihad, on the structure and hierarchy of the Shi'i community as proposed by the uṣūlī clergy, and, more broadly, on the intellectual history of Usulism.
