Muhammad Hussein Na'ini is translated along with the 1955 Persian commentary
on the treatise by the Iranian Ayatullah Sayyid Mahmud Taleqani. It takes into
account two types of governance: the first a legitimate guardianship and the second a necessarily corrupted monopoly. Ayatullah Na'ini addresses the foundations of `truth', the limitation of power during the occultation of the Imam, the function of constitutional governance, the nature of parliament and parliamentary representation, and the forces of despotism and how to overcome them.
Ayatullah Aqa Sheikh Muhammad Hussein Na'ini (1860-1936) was born in central Iran and was a leading mujtahid of the first half of twentieth century. Ayatullah Sayyid Mahmoud Taleqani (1911-79) was born in Iran's northern city of Taleqan and received his higher religious education in Qom, Iran's premier centre of Shi'a learning. Lotfali Khonji is a writer and freelance translator. His English translations include the Symphony of the Dead (a Persian novel by Abbas Maroufi), Beyond the Horizon (an anthology of Esmail Khoi's Persian poems), and Closed Circuit (an anthology of Shadab Vajdi's Persian poems). Mohammed Nafissi is Associate Director of London Metropolitan University's Centre for the Study of Religion, Conflict and Cooperation. He is author of Development of Socio-Economic Thought in the Pahlavi Era (1993) and Ancient Athens and Modern Ideology: Value, Theory and Evidence in Historical Sciences (2005).
