al-Shahid ath-Thani
Ash-Shahīd ath-Thānī ( Arabic الشهيد الثاني, DMG aš-Šahīd aṯ-ṯānī 'the second martyr'; actually Zain ad-Dīn al-Jubaʿī al-ʿĀmili /زين الدين بن علي الجبعي العاملي / Zayn ad-Dīn al-Ǧubaʿī al-ʿĀmili ; born March 9, 1506 in Jubaʿ; died around 1559 ) was a Twelve Shiite legal scholar and theologian. He was born in Jabal Amil ( southern Lebanon ) into a Shiite family of scholars. Like his father, he was called Ibn al-Hudja (about: source of evidential value ) and studied with various Sunni and Shiite scholars. He went on study trips to Damascus (1530), Egypt (1535), Jerusalem (1541–1542) and Istanbul (1545), Mecca (1557) and other places. In the Islamic school Nūrīya in theBekaa he taught the Law of the Shiite school ( madhhab ) of Jafari and the four legal schools of Sunnis . He is the author of numerous works, of which his commentary on al-Lumʿa ad-Dimashqiyya /اللمعة الدمشقية / al-Lumʿa al-Dimašqīya / 'The Damascene Shine' of al-Shahīd al-Awwal is best known.
Several of his works were part of the Safavid madrasa curriculum and are still on the curriculum.
After his violent death, he was venerated as a martyr by Shiite believers.
The book Schuhada-e chamsa kay Halaat-e Zindagi (short: Biographies of the Five Martyrs) by Muhammad Husain Najafi (born 1932) counts him among the group of the Five Martyrs (pers.شهدای پنجگانه) of Shia Islam.
