Allegiance is not an easy matter

Professor: PanÄhian

Behaving according to the phrase “Labbayk YÄ MahdÄ« (mgehr)â€1 is much harder than the phrase “Labbayk YÄ á¸¤usayn (pbuh)â€

When you say “Labbayk YÄ á¸¤usayn (pbuh)â€; That means, ‘I am ready to help you’. Just as the martyrs of KarbalÄ, who helped AbÅ« Ê¿Abd AllÄh Ḥusayn (pbuh).

But, the helpers whom His Majesty ImÄm ZamÄn (mGehr) wants, are different from the helpers of AbÅ« Ê¿Abd AllÄh Ḥusayn (pbuh); not in terms of rank and status, but in terms of function.

When the helpers of His Majesty ImÄm ZamÄn (mgehr) pledge allegiance to him, it does not mean that “I am ready to sacrifice my life for you, serving your worshipâ€. His Majesty has already enough people who are ready to sacrifice their lives for him.

It means, I am ready to help you to rule the world. And this is much more difficult than sacrifice. Because it requires a lot of stability, a lot of sincerity, and a lot of purity. Allegiance is not an easy matter!

An individual pledges allegiance; when you pledge allegiance, you must stand by your pledge.

1.     It means, “Oh Ḥusayn (pbuh), I am responding to your callâ€
