The collection of selected inspiring daily memoirs of Dr. Mustafa Chamran reveal yet another aspect of this great heroic man of God. It shows how he voluntarily migrated in the path of God to help oppressed leaving his beloved ones behind. How he left his successful scientific career and prepared himself to plunge into life-threatening dangers, sorrows, pains, sufferings and self-sacrifices. How he worked very hard day and night to educate, train and empower the oppressed and deprived youth of Lebanon and brought back their self-respect and made them courageous enough to face most powerful enemies and take back their usurped rights while at the same time inculcated them with Islamic ideology and revolutionary lifestyle and prepared them for martyrdom. This was indeed a miracle of Dr. Chamran to bring a metamorphic change in the minds of youths who had lost their precious Islamic heritage at the hands of deviant ideologies and foreign conspirators.
He was a divine human being who kept a very strong and intimate bond intact with his Creator not only in normal situations but also in the most difficult moments of his life. It is worth mentioning as to how he whispered to God about his personal feelings, sorrows, inner pains, loneliness, missing his loved ones, leaving them for the sake of orphans and oppressed and always sought help and strength from Him.
These memoirs also reveal his exceptional courage several times in the face of utmost danger to his life. The way he would calmly pass through most dangerous places and put his life at the altar of death to help downtrodden people of Lebanon on regular basis and was miraculously never caught is yet another aspect of this sincere follower of Imam Ali (as) and Imam Husayn (as). In addition, he was not afraid to speak out all alone in the gatherings of opponents of the Movement of the Deprived and smash them to surrender with his powerful style of debate, superior knowledge and strong arguments.
Finally, these memoirs also give a very beautiful insight into the spiritual and mystical personality of Dr. Chamran. For example, in a very attractive style, he describes the beginning of creation by God and then proves superiority of human being over all the creatures as vicegerent of God on earth. In another memoir, he describes superiority of heart over intellect with a vivid prose.
Perhaps, the most impressive aspect of these memoirs is the sincerity of Dr. Chamran to God, his intense love for God, his indifference to material world and his readiness to face death at any moment – he was always ready for it.
