TEHRAN, Aug. 25 (MNA) – The Bosnian translation of the Iranian book, “The Worship”, written by Hassan Rohaninejad was published by Iran’s cultural attaché to Bosnia & Herzegovina.

The book has been translated by the Bosnian translator Ramez Lalic and published in 1,000 volumes for the Bosnian youth.

A part of the series “From the viewpoints of Imam Ali (AS)”, the book studies “worship” from Imam Ali’s view and discusses the whys and wherefores of worshipping.

A section of the book reads, “Worship means humble obedience to the Most High that has different degrees.”

Imam Ali (AS) has divided worship into three categories in terms of prayers’ motives.

The first group includes those who intend to trade “worship” with “paradise” while the second refers to those who “worship” to avoid “sufferings hereafter” and the third points to the free whose “worship” is pure and merely for God’s sake.

Imam Ali (AS) regards the third kind as the best type of worship.

Worship is very mysterious and the main goal behind the creation of man. It is a way to approach God.

Short, not significant news. But, why did I marked it as news_ Well, here are some people that argue that Bosnians are poore victimes of the bad Christianm Serbs, that Bosnians are seculars, or at least moderate Muslims. Therefore, the embassy of "friendly" Iran is publishing one of its Islamic books, as they say "For Bosnian Youth"..
Yes, the same Bosnians that Americans went for into war against Christians...

There is something interesting in this news report. Bosnian Muslims are Sunni, Iranians are Shiite. After having established terrorist and intelligence foothold in Bosnia, it seems Iranians are planning to establish religious foothold as well.

Well, this in itself is true and in agreement with the Christian doctrine. There are three types of people who achieve salvation. Those who are like slaves - they obey God out of fear of punishment, those who are like hirelings who obey God in hope for reward, and those who are like true children who obey God out of love for Him.

If you go the web site of IRNA (Iranian News agency) one of the foreign languages is Serbian, not "boznian"
