4	108	Attributes of the Ahl al-Bayt of the last Prophet, and their way of life Does Allamah Mansoor Hashemi Khorasani verify the narration that states Zainab, daughter of Ali (peace be upon him) struck her forehead on the edge of a carrier until blood came out from under her veil when she saw the head of her brother? Shias quote this narration as evidence to justify injuring and hitting themselves during the mourning for Imam Husain (peace be upon him).	2016-03-11
3	57	Narrations from the Caliphs of Allah (ahad and mutawatir) What is Allamah Khorasani’s opinion regarding the Abdal?	2015-11-17
2	28	Superstitions and other impediments I have some questions about what Shias do in mourning for Imam Husain and the rest of the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them). I read the sayings of Allamah Khorasani about this matter, but I did not find the answers in them. The questions are as follows: 1. Is Ziyarat Ashura authentic? Is it permissible to attribute it to the Ahl al-Bayt? Some people believe that it is a Divine Hadith. 2. What is the ruling on tatbir (i.e., self-striking by dagger)? Some of their scholars believe that it is permissible. 3. Some Shias cover their bodies with mud in mourning gatherings. Is it permissible? 4. What is the ruling on walking in mourning processions? It is very common in Iran. 5. They say that it is obligatory to recite epic poems about Imam Husain (peace be upon him) and make noise and commotion on the day of Ashura to oppose the actions of the Umayyads. How true is this statement? 6. Allamah Mansoor believes that Imam Mahdi (peace be upon him) is alive at present. Does he participate in mourning gatherings, as many Shia scholars claim?	2015-10-19
1	26	Narrations from the Caliphs of Allah (ahad and mutawatir) People who are called “Quranists” believe that proof is the Quran alone and it is not permissible to deduce the beliefs and rulings of Sharia from the Prophet’s Sunnah; because it is not proof. They have many misconceptions in this regard. What is Allamah Mansoor’s opinion on this belief?	2015-09-03
