Henry Corbin:

Catholics are very active, but it will not work!

Christianity is a dead ancient doctrine, and is not able to answer today questions and fulfill tomorrow expectations!

Islam is a newer doctrine, but Sunnis haven’t followed prophet [ Muhammad( pbuh& h)’ s will] and for them, the spiritual and educational path is

closed and they don’t care for the future. Since they believe just in “ Khatamiat1” [and not in “ imamate” contrary to Shiites.]

Juts the minority” Shiites” with the hope to the future of the world are vivid, earnest and confident, as they believe in and look forward to the occulted imam.

And speak about their living problems with a different view, thought and hope.

Not only do Shiites have for the future, miraculously nut is in the bag,

But also many sources of pride and self-reliance in the past[ 11 other infallible imams and the prophet( pbuh& h)]

Yet, their first imam is, Ali( pbuh) who has no match neither in the past nor in future of the universe.
