From Ashura to the Reappearance - The second series

What kind of person is he for whom the lives would sacrifice...

When Prophet Abraham (PBUH) passed the test of sacrificing his child and God sent him a lamb to be slaughtered in place of Ishmael (PBUH), he asked Allah: “O God! What did I neglect carrying out this test that I didn’t succeed to sacrifice my child to endure the greatest of the tragedies?” Allah answered him: “Oh, Abraham! Do you like yourself more or the last prophet?” He answered: “I like him more.” Allah said: “Do you like your own child more or the child of the last prophet?” Abraham said: “I like the child of the last prophet who is the master of all the martyrs more than my own child, Ishmael.”

Then Allah said: “Oh, Abraham! Neither are you capable of enduring the greatest of the tragedies, nor is the sacrifice of Ishmael the greatest of the tragedies. Rather, one who can endure the greatest of the tragedies is Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and the greatest of the tragedies is the tragedy of the master of all the martyrs (Imam Hussein (PBUH))!”

 

Yes! The angels are developing with the tragedy of Imam Hussein (PBUH) and they’re waiting… On the day of Ashura, thousands of angels descended to the earth to assist the Imam. But, they arrived while Imam Hussein (PBUH) was on the ground (he was martyred) and his family were taken captives! Therefore, dusty and in mourning, they stopped at his grave so that they can assist the avenger of the Imam after the Reappearance…

 

Readiness and awaiting...

Special companions of Imam Mahdi (PBUH) will gather in Mecca as soon as they hear the sign of his Reappearance because of their readiness. They are ready to join and help their Imam regardless of what is going on in their lives.

May he always be brought happily to mind..., I am talking about Muslim ibn Awsaja; he was heading to the bath when he encountered Habib ibn Madhahir. While he became aware of his Imam, he did not even get back to home and they both went to Karbala.

In the way towards Imam, we should sacrifice all we have...

جلب رضایت مردم

{پیام های امام زمان به دولتمردان - شماره 9}

 

کسانی که به حکومت یا پست و مقامی رسیدند باید در حدّ امکان رضایت ارباب رجوع و مردم را بدست آورند و آنان را خوشحال سازند. جا دارد تاملی در حکومت داری امام عصر داشته باشیم:

۱- در ایام خلافتش (امام زمان) اهل زمین و آسمان و پرندگان هوا راضی خواهند شد. [کشف الغمه ج۳ ص۲۶۹]

۲- اهالی آسمان و زمین او را دوست دارند... و زنده ها آرزو میکنند کاش مردگانشان زنده بودند تا عدالت و آرامش را به چشم خود می دیدند. [کشف الغمه ج۲ ص۴۶۹]

البته این موارد و این مصادیقی که در این پیام و سایر پیامها آورده میشود، قطعا توسط شخص دیگری جز امام معصوم مانند امام زمان نمیتواند به ارمغان بیاورد ولی باید دید کدام یک از مسئولین چنین دغدغه هایی دارند و به سوی آن دولت کریمه در حرکتند و او را کمک کنیم...

Acquainting oneself with the Imam of each era - The second series

The protection provided by twelve Caliphs

Shiites – and also Sunnis – believe that the prophet has ensured the survival and dignity of Islam until 

the Judgment Day through the protection provided by twelve Caliphs. Sunnis have been incapable of introducing these twelve Caliphs; however, for Shiites, these twelve divine Caliphs are identified. Through studying the history of their lives, it is revealed that unfortunately, "oppressive regimes’ pressure" caused "the birth of the last divine caliph" to happen in secret, like that of Abraham and Moses.  

This form of birth, created doubts; therefore, most of the Sunnis deny his birth. Shia scholars, so far, have written numerous books to prove his birth.

 

Hadith al-Thaqalayn and the existence of Imam Mahdi

The text of the Hadith: “O people, I am a human being [like others]. I am about to leave you (and go with the Angel of death) …. I am leaving among you two weighty things: these two are “the Book of God “and “My kindred (Itrah): my Ahl al-Bayt”. Indeed, the two will never separate from each other until they come back to me by the Pond (of al-¬Kawthar).Do not overtake them because this transgression will destroy you"

The points of the Hadith al-Thaqalayn:

1-  The Prophet has left “Two successors” after himself to guide the nation.

2-  Both successors will remain until the Doomsday and they will never separate.

3-  Hold fast to them (obey them) to be safe from misguidance.

This hadith has been much repeated in Shiite books and also has written down in Sunni sources including: Sahih Muslim, Sunan Tirmidhi and Sonan al-Darami

Mahdism miniSermons and heart to heart writings - First series

We have lost the aim of life…

In this series, brief and heart to heart writings are going to be used. You can send us your brief and moving heart to heart writings to be used…

 “In my opinion, to live as getting up in the morning, doing some repetitious actions, sleeping at night and continuing this way is the same as animals’ lives, we should ponder how effective we are in this world. Some of us come to that we should serve Allah: “I have only created Jinns and men, that they may serve Me.”

Those who come this far, have passed this animal stage and are humans but unfortunately most of people stay here. We should go further. Serving without knowing Imam Mahdi (PBUH) is worthless, that is why one of the duties of the awaiting people is to know Imam Mahdi (PBUH).”  

(Professor Raefipoor, Hashtgerd, 26 May 2017)

 

The barriers of the Occultation

My master, we call you in our meetings and on our streets to return! But we are unaware that you’re not the one who should return! It’s us who should return to ourselves!

O dear master, we want you to hear us and take a short glance at us! But we have forgotten that you are an observer of our activities and twice a week you become aware of what we do.

We implore you to tell us about your location so we promptly sacrifice ourselves at your feet! But I don’t know why we can’t sacrifice our wishes for your Reappearance! Aren’t you our beloved and don’t we constantly ask for your Reappearance? Then why what you want is grave, hard and impossible for us?

All of us are after those who have visited you, but we have forgotten that you may pass us every moment. O Imam Mahdi, all of us wish we could see you and say hello to you. But we have forgotten that anywhere we say hello to you, you will answer us.

We even forget to say hello to each other in alleys and streets! Maybe the one we passed by slowly… O Flower of Narcissus … I don’t know what happened. We have missed this much the scent of daffodil (you). You pray. Perhaps we return because of the sake of your prayers. I wanted to talk about the barriers! But the barriers of the Occultation took away other barriers from my mind…

وضعیت عمومی بشر قبل از ظهور «در نگاه هندو»

{منجی در ادیان - شماره 25}

 

شاهانِ زمین روحیه ای سرسخت و خویی خشن خواهند داشت، همیشه به دروغ و شرارت معتاد خواهند بود. آنها برای زنان و کودکان مرگ را به ارمغان می آورند، اموال دیگران را تصرّف میکنند درحالیکه قدرت و اراده محدود دارند... رحم و مُروّتِ کمی از خود نشان میدهند‌...هَوی؛ تنها پیوند زننده بین جنسها و دروغ؛ تنها وسیله رسیدن به موقعیت خواهد بود. زنان تنها برای ارضای تمایلات جنسی خواسته خواهند شد.[توماس، ۲۰]

مردان را همسرانشان هدایت میکنند؛ زنان بی حیا شده اند، گستاخ و شهوت ران هستند... بازرگانان پرفریب معاملات را اداره می کنند. شاهان، ستمگر و خونریز میشوند... در آن دوران، خردمندان برای ظهور منجی دست به دعا برمیدارند... [توماس، ۵]

(البته باید توجه داشت، منظور شرایط عمومی کل بشر است، نه همهٔ مردم)

[منجی در ادیان، زواردهی، ص۲۲۳]

Mahdism examples - First series

Breaking the glass, breaking the pottery

Imam Sadiq’s (PBUH) warnings:

1-I swear to God,  you will break undoubtedly such as shattering of a glass but glass can be recycled (by melting and reproducing). I swear to God you will break like pottery, very truly it does not return to original condition.

2-“I swear to God you will be screened and distinguished from each other undoubtedly and you will be selected until a few of you remain.”

(Al-Qaibat  Na´mani, page 307)

 

The leaders of the occultation

Imam Hadi(PBUH) said :

In the occultation of our Qa’im, if there weren’t any scholars and sages who invite people to Imam Mahdi or any defenders of the religion or helper to save unable people from evil’s and enemies’ traps, all people would stop following God’s religion and would become a pagan.

Scholars and sages, who save weak and poor Shia Muslims like a captain who guides a ship, are better and beloved ones for God.

(Al-Ihtijaj, volume 1, page 18)

سفیانی (2)

{دیکشنری مهدوی - شماره 20}

 

س - سفیانی (بخش دوم)

زمان قیامش: امام باقر علیه السلام فرمودند: سُفیانی و قائم در یک سال خواهند بود.*۱

امام صادق علیه السلام فرمودند: خروج سفیانی از امور حتمی است و در ماه رجب واقع میشود.*۲ (البته این احتمال نیز وجود دارد که در ماه دیگری خروج کند و بداء حاصل شود و زمانش تغییر کند.)

اقداماتش: او در شام خروج میکند. با تظاهر به دینداری مردم فراوانی را فریب میدهد و در کشورهای اسلامی کشتار راه می اندازد و برای کشتن آنان جایزه تعیین میکند. مدت حکومتش ۹ماه است. پس از ظهور امام زمان، لشکری برای جنگ میفرستد ولی در منطقه بیداء (بین مکه و مدینه) به امر خدا همه لشکریانش جز چند نفر، در زمین فرو رفته و هلاک میشوند.*۳

[1-غیبة نعمانی باب۱۴؛ ۲- کمال الدین باب۵۷؛ ۳- فرهنگنامه مهدویت ص۲۰۵]

Introducing Mahdavi Books - First series

The book of “Al-Ghayba al-Nu’mani”

This precious book is written by “Muhammad bin Ibrahim Nu’mani”. He is one of the greatest Shia narrators in the early fourth century A.H. (After Hijrah), a gifted writer with deduction power who has a comprehensive knowledge about science of Rijal (biographical evaluation of narrators) and Hadith (evaluation the integrity of narrations), Muhammad bin Yaqub Kuleyni’s (the author of Usul al-Kafi) student and he is so respectable and known among Shia scholars and Faqihs (Islamic jurisprudents). This book is undoubtedly one of the best books about narrations related to Imam Mahdi’s (PBUH) characteristics, Occultation and the Reappearance era and their features. All narrations are documented and the documents are valid and preferred by experts. (Mahdism textbook, v. 1, p. 59)

This book is one of most valid sources in Mahdism subjects especially the Occultation. (Ta zuhoor (till the Reappearance), Ayatollah Najm al-Din Tabasi, v. 2)

This is the oldest book among the books related to Imam Mahdi’s (PBUH) Occultation. Scholars like Sheikh al-Mufid and Sheikh al-Tusi have used this book and quoted its narrations. (Ayatollah Madani Bejestani, Farhang e kotob e hadithi e Shia (the encyclopedia of Shia Hadith books), v. 1)

 

The book of “Kamal al-Din and Tamam al-Nimeh”

The writer of this book, Sheikh al-Saduq, is one of the greatest persons in the Islamic world and one of the most outstanding and bright persons of knowledge and superiority who was born due to a prayer by Imam Mahdi (PBUH) (It’s a long story).

Sheikh al-Saduq writes in the beginning of his book: “In my dream, I saw I was circumambulating the Kaaba. In the seventh round I saw my master, Qa’im, standing at the door of Kaaba. I approached him with a heavy heart and a gloomy mood… I said: “Hello.” He answered and said: “Why don’t you write a book on the Occultation so that your sadness and sorrow goes away?” I said: “O son of the Messenger of Allah, I have already written about the Occultation.” He said: “Not that way; I now order you to write a book on the Occultation and mention the occultation of prophets in it.””

This book consists of 2 parts: 1. General subjects and comprehensive Hadiths about the occultations in previous nations and proving the fact that the Occultation of Imam Mahdi (PBUH) is not something new, but rather has a long history. 2. Subjects like: birth, Imamate, the Occultation and its reasons, visits, letters issued by Imam Mahdi (PBUH) and … . (Mahdism textbook, v. 1, p. 61)

Mahdism Dictionary - First series

Because of the numerous words and titles used in Mahdism connection, in this series of Mahdavi messages, we are going to engage in more important and useful words and titles. God willing.

 

A- Abdal (the substitutes)

 (They are Imam Mahdi’s (PBUH) companions in the Reappearance era.) It is said that: “There are some known decent servants of Allah who the Earth is not vacant of them and whenever one of them is dead, Allah choose another one.” (1) It is narrated that: “They are a group of Imam Mahdi’s (PBUH) companions living in the current Syrian area and reach to him at the Reappearance and swear fealty to him.” (2) Imam Reza (PBUH) said: “Abdal are the successors whom Allah has set the substitutes for prophets.”(3)

 

A- Antioch

 (The place where the original Torah and Bible will be brought out after the Reappearance.) Antioch is the name of a city built 300 years before Christ by the Greeks and now located in Turkey borders. Maybe the use of Antioch in Mahdism narrations denotes the close relation between Imam Mahdi (PBUH) and Prophet Jesus (PBUH). Imam Baqir (PBUH) said: “(Imam Mahdi (PBUH)) brings out the (original) Torah and Bible from a land named Antioch.” (4)

(1: Kanz al-Ummal, v. 11; 2: Al-Ghayba al-Tusi, p. 476; 3: Al-Ihtijaj, v. 2; 4: Elal al-Sharaye’a, v. 1)

 

H- The Hujjatia society

They are a group that have been the center of attention in Mahdism context since over half a century ago. This society was established in 1953 to fight Bahaism (that had also influenced the Pahlavi regiment) by Sheikh Mahmoud Zakerzadeh Tavallaei’s (Halabi) efforts in cooperation with a group of religious people. The existence of a clause in their statute has annoyed the revolutionaries before and after the revolution very much: “The society won’t interfere in political affairs in any way.”

Most people who returned from Bahaism by the society would write a letter of repentance which most of them are available in the Library of Astan Quds. They had confirmations from some Marja’s before the revolution that they still refer to. Their trained forces were divided into three types: some were against the revolution, some for the revolution and some were indifferent. The Hojjatieh society changed its stance regarding politics a few months prior to the revolution (September 1978) and went alongside with the revolution. After the revolution, the society was introduced as a dangerous element by some revolutionary leaders.

For instance, Imam Khomeini who once approved Mr. Halabi, gradually became pessimistic about the movement of the society and cut his support. And they, after going back and forth, officially announced their dissolution in a statement in 1983. Now that it’s been 35 years since their dissolution, some parties still talk about the influence of the society every now and then.

سفیانی از کجا خروج می کند؟

{علائم ظهور - شماره 20}

 

امام سجاد علیه السلام فرمودند: ... سپس سفیانی ملعون از وادی یابِس قیام می‌کند. (وادی یابس یعنی سرزمینی خشک | در شام)

[کتاب غیبت، طوسی، ح۴۳۷]

نکته: منظور از شام، تنها کشور سوریه فعلی نیست، بلکه شام قدیم بسیار پهناورتر از سوریه فعلی بوده! در جلد اول کتاب "معجم البلدان" آمده که این کشور «پنج منطقه» را در بر می‌گرفته که عبارتند از: دمشق، حمص، قنّسرین، فلسطین و اردن. بنابراین سفیانی از هر یک از این مناطق خروج کند، خروج از شام بر آن صدق می‌کند.

[برگرفته از کتاب تاملی در نشانه های حتمی ظهور]
