Passage

Romans 4

• Doctrine

  Faith

  Persian Shia iman includes belief in the Imamate as a core article; must be anchored as personal trust in Christ specifically, not creedal assent to a succession doctrine.

  ROM.4.1-25

• Glossary Term

  Faith

  Shares the same six-pillars creedal-assent structure as Arabic iman, with a further Shia-specific layer: belief in the Imamate (the divinely-appointed succession beginning with Ali) is itself a core article of Shia iman.

  ROM.4.1-25

• Glossary Term

  Resurrection

  CRITICAL: shares the Quran's crucifixion-denial problem (4:157) with Arabic.

  ROM.4.25

• Doctrine

  Resurrection of Christ

  CRITICAL: shares the Quran's crucifixion-denial (4:157) with Arabic; Shia eschatology's Mahdi-centered expectation further subordinates Jesus's own resurrection and return to a supporting role at the Hidden Imam's reappearance.
