Allameh Mohammad-Taqi Ja'fari (1923 - 15 November 1998) born in Tabriz was an Iranian Shia scholar, thinker, and theologian.
Allameh wrote many books on a vast variety of fields, the most prominent of which are his 15-volume Interpretation and Criticism of Rumi's Masnavi, and his unfinished, 27-volume Translation and Interpretation of the Nahj al-Balagha.
These two major works of the scholar contain his most important thoughts and ideas in fields like anthropology, sociology, moral ethics, philosophy and mysticism.
