Voices from the Arab press: Are we witnessing the fall of Hezbollah?

The Hezbollah state, an extension of Iran’s influence in Lebanon, has dismantled national order and created a “society without a state,” characterized by violence and control. Amid its military and financial decline, there is a call for a new political and cultural framework within the Shi’ite community to reclaim the Lebanese state, integrating modernity with Shi’ite thought. Scholars like Muhammad Hasan al-Amin advocate for a separation of religious authority from political power, promoting a jurisprudential shift toward a more inclusive national identity.
