'''Zayn al-Dīn al-Juba'ī al'Amilī''' ({{langx|ar|زين الدين الجبعي العاملي}}; 1506-1559), also known as '''ash-Shahīd ath-Thanī''' ({{langx|ar|الشهيد الثاني}}, ''{{transl|ar|ʾash-Shahīd ath-Thānī}}'', {{lit|The Second Martyr}}) was a Twelver [[Shia Islam|Shia Muslim]] scholar.


== Career ==
== Early life ==
He was born ''Zayn al-Dīn bin Nur al-Dīn 'Alī bin Aḥmad bin Muḥammad bin 'Alī bin Jamal al-Dīn bin Taqī bin Sāliḥ bin Mushrif al-'Amilī al-Shamī al-Ṭalluṣī al-Juba'ī'', in the village of [[Jbaa]], on the 13th of Shawwal, 911 AH (1506 CE). His father, Sheikh Nur al-Din 'Ali was also a scholar.
Thani was one of the greatest shi'a scholars. He studied under famous [[Sunni]] and [[Shi'a]] in [[Jabal 'Amel]], [[Damascus]], [[Cairo]], [[Jerusalem]] among many others. He was known and respected by sunnis in [[Baalabeck]] for this. He was authorized to teach Muslims in the Nouriyah Islamic school according to the [[five schools of thought]].


His ancestor, Sāliḥ, was a student of [[Allamah Al-Hilli|Allamah al-Hilli]].
He became a Mujtahid at age 33 after his visits to Iraq. Since [[Ijtihad]] was forbidden and Shi'ism had a history of persecution in the area, especially that shi'ism was still strong among the people as a result of the not-so-long gone [[Hamdanid]] dynasty, some people conspired against him due to petty reasons before being judged in front of the Sultan.


== Career and Travels ==
In Rajab of 965 A.H. (1558), he was beheaded on his way to see the sultan and a shrine was built by some Turkmens on the site as they realised his stature. The person that beheaded him was killed by the Sultan orders.
Thani studied under both [[Sunni]] and [[Shi'a]] scholars in [[Jabal 'Amel]], [[Damascus]], [[Cairo]], [[Jerusalem]].


In 1536, he moved to [[Egypt]], where he learned ''Usul al-Fiqh'', [[geometry]], [[Prosody (linguistics)|prosody]], [[medicine]] and [[logic]].<ref>{{cite book |last1=Al-Amili |first1=Muhsin |title=A'yan al-Shi'a |date=1983 |location=Beirut |url=http://shiaonlinelibrary.com/%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%83%D8%AA%D8%A8/3642_%D8%A3%D8%B9%D9%8A%D8%A7%D9%86-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B4%D9%8A%D8%B9%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B3%D9%8A%D8%AF-%D9%85%D8%AD%D8%B3%D9%86-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D9%85%D9%8A%D9%86-%D8%AC-%D9%A7/}}</ref>
== Legacy ==
One of his greatest work is the first commentary of ''The Damascene Glitter'' by [[Shahid Awwal]] called ''The Beautiful Garden in Interpreting the Damscene Glitter'' (Arabic: ''ar-Rawda-l-Bahiyah fi Sharh allam'a-d-Dimashqiya'' الروضة البهيّة في شرح اللمعة الدمشقيّة ) in few volumes.


In 1543, he traveled to [[Constantinople]] and met with Muhammad bin Muhammad bin [[Qāḍī Zāda al-Rūmī]], with whom he shared multiple treatises relating to several subjects, including [[mathematics]], astronomy and religion.

== Hadith Classification ==
Shaikh Zainuddin, better known as SHAHEEDeTHANI (the second Shaheed), is among the greatest Shia FUQAHA. He was born in 911 AH. in Jabal Amel, but he must have lived in TUS for a considerable time, as he occasionally signed his name as "alTUSI, al-Shami " .


== Death ==
He was a widely travelled man, having visited Egypt, Syria, Tihamah, Hijaz, Baitul Muqaddas, Iraq and Constantinople (Istanbul). Always in pursuit of knowledge, he studied from nearly twelve Sunni Ulama of [[Fiqh]]. Apart from the proficiency in Fiqh, he was well versed in [[Theology of Twelvers|Usool]], Philosophy, [[Irfan]], Medicine and Astronomy.


In Rajab of 965 A.H. (1558), he was beheaded on his way to see the sultan and a shrine was built by some Turkmens on the site.
He was a man of piety, known for his austere way of life. His students have recorded in his biography that Shaheed maintained his family by selling the woods cut by himself during the nights, and then sat to teach during the day. While in Ba'lbak, he conducted classes in Fiqh according to five schools, i.e. Ja'fari, Hanafi, Shafei, Maliki and Hambali. His famous work is the commentary on al-Lum'ah which had been authored by Shaheed-e-Awwal. His commentary, Sharh e Lumuah is a part of curriculum in almost every Hawza even today. He studied from Muhaqqiq Karaki before the later migrated to Iran.


== Legacy ==
ShaheedeThani's son wrote the famous book on Usool, called MA'ALIMULUSOOL. ShaheedeThani was martyred in 966 AH.
His [[Masterpiece|Magnum opus]] is the first commentary of ''The Damascene Glitter'' by [[Shahid Awwal]] called ''The Beautiful Garden in Interpreting the Damscene Glitter'' (Arabic: ''ar-Rawda-l-Bahiyah fi Sharh allam'a-d-Dimashqiya'' الروضة البهيّة في شرح اللمعة الدمشقيّة ).
