Nafi-e-Sabil Rule and its role in fulfillment of national unity and Islamic solidarity

Nafi-e-sabil is a popular discussion among Shiite and Sonnite clergies. It is designed to prevent pagans from dominating Muslim world and is constituted on many Quranic codes and sacred quotes of Prophet and his dynasty, in addition to wisdom and rationality. Clergies in both religions (Shiite and Sonnite) have attempted to explain the rule and its prevalence in religious sentences and made many references to it in their distinguished texts. However, this rule was hardly applied to the other aspects of clerical issues and other fields, as the political law and sociological studies. The present study attempts to offer a new explanation of the Quranic, wise, and rational basis of the rule, and thus emphasize on its role in the fulfillment of National Unity and Islamic Solidarity. It could guide the greater Islamic Ummah to an explanation of Iran's Great Leader's subtle quotes. Therefore, here I would define and analyze implications of this rule, in addition to offering a literature review, and thus reflect on the temporal and space conditions of the rule's application. Furthermore, I have studied its interaction and mutual connection on which sage readers would judge.
