The real repentance (from the depth of heart)

The real repentance (from the depth of heart)

One of the most important tasks of the Shiites toward their Imam is to do real repentance. One of the main reasons for the occultation of Imam Mahdi, is the sins people commit.

In his letter to Sheikh al-Mufid, Imam Mahdi considers the sins as the main reason of his occultation and he says:

“So the only thing that keeps us hidden for them is their unpleasant and bad deeds that are revealed to us and we do not like them and don’t expect from them.”

The trees are commanded to bear fruits every month and the humans are healed whenever they eat them [4]. Destroyed cities will be rebuilt and no ruins will be found on earth [5]. Wolf will dwell with the lamb, leopard and lion will respectively sleep with the kid and cow and calf. The infant will place his hand on the serpent’s nest [6].

Providing the food for Imam Mahdi’s army

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.

Stoning the Satan

Stoning the Satan

The translation of Verse 36 of Surah Al-Imran: “And I commend her and her offspring to Thy protection from the Evil One, the Rejected.”

Imam Hadi (PBUH) on the interpretation of this verse has said:

“Rejected means that Satan was expelled from God’s Presence. No faithful remembers him except to damn him. Very truly, it has been ordained in God’s Knowledge (from the beginning of the Creation) that no faithful among those who used to damn Satan exists except that they stone Satan and make him go away from them.

The incredible glory and strength of Imam Mahdi (PBUH)

The incredible glory and strength of Imam Mahdi (PBUH)

 

🔅 Imam Reza (PBUH) says in a narration: “Qa’im is the one who is old at the time of his Reappearance but has a young face; and he has that much physical strength that if he lays his hand on the biggest tree on Earth, he would uproot it and if he raises his voice among mountains, mountain rocks would turn into pieces. He has the Staff of Moses and the Seal of Solomon with him.”

At Imam Jawad's (PBUH) class

⭕️ At Imam Jawad's (PBUH) class

 

♻️ Saqar ibn abi Dulaf says: “I heard Imam Jawad (PBUH) saying: “The Imam after me is my son, Ali (Hadi)… and the Imam after him is his son, Hassan (Askari)…” Then he remained silent. I said: “O son of the messenger of Allah! Who is the Imam after Hassan?” He cried severely and said: “After Hassan, his son who rises rightfully and people await for him.”

 

🔹 I said: “Why is he called Qa'im?” He said: “Because after he is forgotten and most of people who believe in his Imamate become apostate, he rises.” I said: “Why is he called the Awaited?”

 

🔸 He said: “Because he will have an Occultation, the duration of which will be long and the days of which will be many. The sincere people will wait for his rising, and those in doubt will deny him and will ridicule his remembrance and those who set a time for his Reappearance are liars and those who hasten will be destroyed; and those who are submissive will be saved.””

The eighth reason for the necessity of acquainting oneself with Imam of each era:

The eighth reason for the necessity of acquainting oneself with Imam of each era:

Not having him brings about torments

In the authentic books of the Ulema, there is a written prayer for Imam Mahdi (A.J) which reads:

“And whoever shuns you and is ignorant of your acquaintance and (consequently) chooses another person instead of you, God will throw him in fire in the face and will not accept any deed from him and will not consider any value for him on the Day of Judgment.”

Should we be afraid of Imam Mahdi (A.J) or not?

Should we be afraid of Imam Mahdi (A.J) or not?

Some have shown a violent image of Imam Mahdi (A.J) and some books have falsely introduced him as one who will kill as much as the earth will be filled with blood. This is done by enemies… Imam Mahdi is a Missionary of Mercy. His revolution is primarily not a military one but a cultural one.

We read in Aa’l-Yasin: “He is a “well-wisher for the world of humanity”, “the rescue ship”, “the flag of guidance”, “the apple of people’s eyes”, and “the best son of man”.

In different Hadiths, Imam Mahdi (A.J) has been resembled to two things: 1- the sunlight 2- the vitalizing and reviving water

False Messiah pretenders

False Messiah pretenders

The Jew’s history is filled with the passion of waiting for the apocalyptical Promised Savior. From the ancient times till now, hundreds of people have claimed to be the Messiah which has attracted the Israel naive men for a short time.

As an example, several centuries AD, a man named “Moses” was living in Crete islands, introduced himself as Messiah and all the Jewish communities were deceived by him.

One of the famous false Messiahs who died in 1676 AD is Sabbtae Zebi which left an emerging religious sect called “Dönmeh” in Turkey.

“When a false Messiah is fully welcomed, it has one important message showing that people have heard a lot about the savior. The world is waiting for the arrival, but who is the “Promised Savior”?”

The position of Imam Mahdi’s companions

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”.
