Some Iranian Contemporary Poems
There’s someone who always loves me
Who doesn’t blink while looking at me!

What a heart He has! Vast seas are none!

Raj’a of The Prophet (pbuh&h), ImÄm AlÄ« and ImÄm Huá¹£ayn (pbu th)
In fact, the first [group] who Raj’a to the world, are Huá¹£ayn ibn AlÄ« (pbuh) and his companions, and YazÄ«d ibn MuÊ¿Äwiyah and his companions. So, the Excellency will kill them [in the same manner as they did], one after another…
The hellish type of being at service of ImÄm ZamÄn (mGehr).
this is the story of ImÄm ZamÄn’s occultation. The [Arabic] question “Ayna†refers to [wandering for] the lost. This is important. It means you need challenge [and find yourself]! The ImÄm tries to bring us to this stage too; to make us ask “Ayna? Ayna?†Yet, [most of us] have disobeyed. It means we are getting back to our normal process of our life again, and we are moving forward very normally.
Well, if we can probably do something, we will do something on the sidelines of terrestrial [maternal]life! This is the very hellish type

God has reserved him [ImÄm ZamÄn]. It’s because, no one [from the first to the last] have had this power to spread justice throughout the world, and it was for him alone. This it what the prophets (pbu th) failed to achieve, even though they came to serve it.
The quality of attendance of those who look forward to the Emergence, in mourning ceremonies
The second type of mourning follows and protects the trail and lifestyle of the Messenger of God (pbuh&h). That is, to hate and be averse to the axis of “oppression and oppression statesâ€. This is how a mourning that establishes the mainstream and plans for the Emergence, keeps the “Correct though way†alive.
Let’s read the verse of Al-Nudba Supplication with more reflection.
“Where is he who shall pull down the foundations of confusion (polytheists) and hypocrisy?â€
