Blessings in the time of Reappearance

The Holy Prophet said:

“In the era of Imam Mahdi (PBUH), the earth puts out its treasures such as pieces of gold and silver,

The thief comes forward and says:

“Was my hand cut for a thing like this?”

The murderer comes forward and says:

“Did I commit murder for such an object?”

The one who hasn’t maintained ties with his family says:

“Did I cut the ties (with my relatives) for such a thing?”

Then these pieces of gold and silver remain on the ground and nobody has the slightest desire to take them.”

Besharat al-Islam p.71

 

Economy in the time of Reappearance

Imam Baqir (PBUH) said:

 “World wealth will be accumulated and will be in the possession of Mahdi (PBUH); the wealth beneath the ground and the wealth on the ground; then he will tell people, “Come and take what you cut the ties for” (i.e. materialism)

 “So he will give (everyone) as much wealth that no one before him had not given to another and he provides the earth with utter justice.”

Qeibat Na’mani P. 237

Evolution of minds after the Reappearance

Imam Baqir (PBUH) said:

“Whenever Imam Mahdi (PBUH) rises up, he will pat the worshipers on their head and by doing so he will make their minds concentrated and will complete their morality.”

Imam Sadiq (PBUH) addressing the Shias said:

“You will not perfect your faith until Imam Mahdi (PBUH) rises up, therefore, God would unite your wisdom and the believers will reach their perfection.”

A government based on the Quran

Imam Ali (PBUH), in an expressive statement, describes the Quranic government of Imam Mahdi (PBUH) as the following:

At a time when passion (people’s selfishness) rules, Imam Mahdi (PBUH) will rise up and will replace passion with guidance and salvation of souls and in an age when self-ideology is prioritized over the Holy Quran, will drag the attentions towards the Quran and makes it rule over the society.

Nahj al Balagha, Sermon 138, p. 424

 

An entirely monotheistic system of governing

There will be a time during which all the inhabitants of earth believe in monotheism and reject polytheism:

Imam Sadiq (PBUH), describing the inclusive and universal government of Imam Mahdi (PBUH), stated that:

“In the East and the West of the world, there will not be anyone who does not believe in the oneness of God and monotheism.”

Bihar al-Anwar, volume 52, p. 340

 

Miracles of Imam Mahdi (A.J)

Imam Sadiq (PBUH) says: “There is no miracle left from the prophets unless God shows it to the enemies through Imam Mahdi (A.J) as an ultimatum.”

Montakhab Al- Athar, p. 312

Therefore, Imam Mahdi’s miracles are not ended before and during his occultation, but at the time of Reappearance, he will bring other miracles to introduce his rightfulness and to be an ultimatum for enemies and deniers.

 

The position of Imam Mahdi’s companions

Imam Baqir (PBUH) says: As if I see Imam Mahdi’s companions surrounding all over the world, from the east to the west. All creatures even wild animals and birds will obey them and look for their satisfaction, as far as one land showing off to other lands, saying:

“Today, one of Imam Mahdi’s companions passed by me”.

Kamāl al-Dīn, Vol. 2, p.673

Providing the food for Imam Mahdi’s army

Imam Sadiq (PBUH) quotes from Imam Baqir (PBUH):

“When Mahdi comes and rises, he starts from Mecca, then moves to Kufa. Before setting out with his army and companions, his harbinger calls every one that: no one is allowed to carry food and water.”

Then Imam commands them to pick the stone belonging to Prophet Moses which equals the load on a camel and carry it along with the forces. To every house they get, the water flows from the stone and every hungry man gets saturated when he drinks it and every thirsty man gets satiated when he drinks it, and he will need no food nor water. This food is for all members of the Imam Mahdi’s army until they enter Najaf and Kufa.

Usūl al-Kāfī, Vol. 1, Kamāl al-Dīn, p. 670

 

The Reappearance and the happiness of the followers of Ahl al Bayt

Amir al-Mu'minin (Ali (PBUH) said: “Be aware that the day of Reappearance is the day of happiness for the progenies of Ali and Shiites of Ali (PBUH)”

Al-Qaibat  Na´mani

Mahdi’s (PBUH) vengeance:

“Death and blood will drip from Mahdi’s (PBUH) sword for vile vampires, the so called civilized predators and inhuman superpowers but life and mercy will drip from his sword for the suffered and poor people.”

“Khorshideh- Maghrib” (The Sun of the West), page 38.

 

Good news for those waiting in graves

Saif bin Umaira has said that Imam Baqir (PBUH) said to me:

“When Qa’im (Mahdi (A.J)) rises up against tyranny, a believer will be allowed in the grave and they said to him: “Your master has appeared. If you want to accompany him, go and if you want to stay in the shadow of Lord’s dignity then stay here.
