The prayer of Nudba [1] has the highest mystical and romantic themes, which are not found in any romantic book or Islamic gnostic letter.
If we really claim we know and love the Imam (mgehr), [we are supposed to answer] how much our Mawlā [2] [Zamān (mgehr)],has conquered us?
How much has his existence brought comfort to us? And how much are we happier, more energetic and more motivated when we have him?
One of the effects of having deep interest in Imam Zamān (mgehr) is, our Imam will (mgehr) consider, accept and select us as a helper and a companion.
So, we should last our love to Imam Zamān (mgehr).
We need to live with love; a love that causes a strong motivation for us in our lives.The love which is the centerpiece of all our activities, and we study for the sake of it.
We walk, we are happy and reach spiritual balance, due to this love.
If we find this dignified love, we will not get into mental and social harms anymore.
It is God’s will for [creatures] to have a noble human called “Imam (pbuh)” for each era, so they can love him.
If human beings have romantic thoughts and feeling about Mahdaviat [3] ,
societies will develop looking forward to the Emergence; so, the beautiful effects will be seen.
Human being needs to love someone and hit up her/ his life with it.
This great love isn’t possible or expected to belong to anyone, but Imam Zamān (mgehr).
Imam Zamān (mgehr) need the people, who will dedicate themselves just to him.
The people who are truly looking forward to the Emergence, are the ones who await his majesty [Imam Zamān (mgehr)] just in the way and for the sake of God.
But, not for fulfilling their own personal wishes.
