About the Book:

In his groundbreaking work, The Treaty of Imam Al-Hasan (pbuh): A New Perspective, Al-Badri presents the culmination of more than twenty years of meticulous historical and investigative research. The book challenges standard historical narratives that often view the peace treaty between Imam Al-Hassan (pbuh) and Muʿawiya as a compromise of weakness, reframing it instead as a brilliant, calculated strategy that preserved the core message of Islam. By cross-examining early texts and removing passive historical biases, Al-Badri demonstrates how the treaty actually maintained the structural integrity, loyalty, and resilience of the early Shi’a community.

About the Author:

Sayed Sami Al-Badri is an eminent Iraqi Shia scholar, researcher, and historian renowned for his unique synthesis of traditional Islamic seminary knowledge (Hawza) and modern historical linguistics. He possesses a rare expertise in ancient Middle Eastern languages, including Sumerian, Akkadian, Aramaic, Syriac, and Hebrew, which he leverages to critically analyze original scriptures and ancient texts. His expansive research spans the entire history of Abrahamic civilization from the era of Prophet Adam (pbuh) to the modern world. Through his public lectures and intellectual contributions, Al-Badri focuses on defending Shiite theology, tracking the linguistic lineages of early prophecy, and addressing the root causes of modern secularism and religious misunderstandings.
