ITI currently has 2 projects : The Al-Kafi project and the Du'a al-Nudbah project.
ITI has decided to take on the first two volumes of Kitab al-Kafi, known as Usul
al-Kafi as its first endeavor because of the pivotal role this collection has played in the
development of Islamic scholarship and because of its vast reservoir of teachings from
the Prophet and Imams.
The team at ITI will, in reality, produce two texts for publication. The first will be
an Arabic text which will be used first and foremost by ITI´s translator as a source from
which to translate into English; however, it will also benefit other students of the hawzah
and those who wish to translate the text into other languages.
The second text will consist of an accurate, eloquent translation of the text of al-Kafi
along with extensive English commentary.

As a second project in parallel with the first, ITI has taken on the task of translating
and commenting upon the famous supplication Du'a al-Nudba. While the style of the translation and commentary will be
consistent with that of Usul al-Kafi, the supplication's shorter length will allow ITI to complete this work much sooner,
if God wills.
