Although there is not any available, and clearly explicit biography of ImÄm MahdÄ« (mgehr)’s mother, based on the well- known assumption_ from some narrations_ she played the role of a slave who had been captured in the war, in order to join ImÄm AskarÄ« (pbuh)’s respected family at last. [It had been planned before, by ImÄm AskarÄ« (pbuh)’s father; ImÄm HÄdÄ« (pbuh) in order to save her. Then she married ImÄm AskarÄ«, as she had dreamt it in a heavenly dream.]
In the softness and color point of view, [the Imam (mgehr)’s face] is “as chamomile and Judasâ€, on them, there is dew. And it [the flower] s redness has been reduced by the air.And it might show his Excellency’s niceness, if I express it like this†the white and redness of those two flowers are mixed.â€
The first person who denied Imam MahdÄ« (mgehr)’s birth, was (his uncle;) JaÊ¿far.He used to severely prevent the distribution of [the Imam (mgehr)’s] birth news!![In addition, in the book “Al-Fiá¹£al fÄ« al-milal wa-al-ahwÄʼ wa-al-niḥal] Ibn Ḥazm1 created ambiguity in the birth issue.
[Ibn Abbas] replied, “It was for his nation [Muslims in general], not to be bothered.â€
“Deviation in MahdÄ« sm”
Keysaniye believed in ” Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyahâ€â€˜s Imamate.
After his death, some denied it and said, “He is alive but absent, he is hidden in Rizwa mount until the day, he will be commanded and will emerge.”
Actually they respected him as the Imam whom was awaited!
Hemyari said, “Uthman Ibn Sa’eed {the first deputy of Imam al-Mahdi (hgr)} and I were with Ahmad Ibn IsḥÄq.
Ahmad Ibn IsḥÄq pointed to me that I would ask Uthman Ibn Sa’eed about Imam Askari (pbuh)’s successor.
So, I obeyed and asked him so:
They knew you will come but they were lost your address!
Keysaniye believed in Imam being of “Muhammad Ibn Hanafiyah”.
After his dead some denied it and said: “He is alive but absent, he is hidden in Rizwa mount until the day when he will be commanded and emerge.”
Actually they respect him the Imam who was waiting for him!
Hemyari said: Uthman Ibn Sa’eed (the first deputy of Imam al-Mahdi (hgr)) and I were near Ahmad Ibn IsḥÄq.
Ahmad Ibn IsḥÄq insinuate to me to ask Uthman Ibn Sa’eed about the successor of Imam Askari (pbuh).
