AL-GHADEER
In Quran, traditions and literature
Al-Ghadeer by Allamah Abdul Husain Amini (r.a.) is among the most important Shia polemic books of all times and the most outstanding book of modern times. I will not mention more than this about the book or the author, as the preface and introduction after this are quite sufficient and detailed in this regard.
