The Inspiring Story of Sacrifice and Truth in Islamic History
Ghareeb e Rabza is an Urdu translation of the renowned work originally written by Dr. Ali Shariati under the Arabic title Joodat al-Sahhar. The book reflects on the life and character of Hazrat Abu Zar Ghaffari (R.A.), one of the most sincere and courageous companions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The title “Ghareeb e Rabza” symbolically represents the loneliness, simplicity, and steadfastness that defined the final phase of his life.

Dr. Ali Shariati presents Hazrat Abu Zar (R.A.) as a powerful voice of justice and social awareness in early Islamic history. The narrative explores his unwavering commitment to truth, his resistance to materialism, and his firm stance on equality and moral accountability. After the era of the Prophet (peace be upon him), Hazrat Abu Zar (R.A.) expressed strong opinions on economic justice and governance, which eventually led to his relocation to the desert region of Rabza.
The desert of Rabza became a symbol of both exile and spiritual strength. According to well-known traditions, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) foretold that Abu Zar would live alone, die alone, and be raised alone. His life reflects deep devotion, sincerity, and sacrifice for the principles he believed in.
The Urdu edition makes this important historical and intellectual work accessible to a wider audience. Through thoughtful translation and presentation, readers can better understand the moral and ideological message conveyed by Dr. Shariati.
