Difference in looking forward to the Emergence

Even most of the Sunnis actually have theoretical opinions about the holy presence of Walī Asr (mGehr)! It means, they mostly have the firm belief that, the Excellency was born in 255 AH, he has the same name as the Prophet (pbuh&h), He is the continuation of the Messenger of God (pbuh&h)’s light of loving and kindness, he is Her pure Excellency Majesty Fātimā (pbuh)’s offspring. Also, they mostly believe in this main belief:

“…وَ هوَ حَیٌ”

What prophets (Pbu th) did not complete!

God has reserved him [Imām Zamān]. 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.

Calamities and Reading prayers

Once, Imām Ṣādiq (pbuh) stated to his companions, ‘Can you recognize whether the disaster you suffer, will last long or not?’ The companions said, ‘No!’ The Imām reacted, ‘whenever reading is inspired [and you perform it] to each of you, it means the disaster doesn’t last [and it will be]!’   (Kāfī, Vol. 2, P. 470)

2-    Why are the healthy people expected to read prayers as the sick people?

Typology of Imām Zamān (mGehr)’s during his rise

a-    Hypocrites

The first group who line up against His Excellency Mahdī (mGehr), are polytheists and disbelievers. Well, they claim that they are the head of people of the world. So, they see liberating movement of Imām Mahdī (mGehr) as a ban for their improper benefits.

Anyhow, the way of His Excellency Mahdī (mGehr)’s deals with them, is as same as the Prophet (pbuh&h)’s.

The similarities between Imām Mahdī (mGehr) and Imām Husayn (pbuh)

Infact, The Qā’im (mGehr)calls out his name* on the twenty-third night [of Ramadhan], and rises on the day of Ashurā, the day Huṣayn ibn Alī (pbuh) was killed.

2- Imām Huṣayn (pbuh)’ Rajʽa will be after Mahdī (mGehr)’s emergence:

According to many narrations, Imām Huṣayn (pbuh) and his companions (mGbths) will Rajʽa [return] and help Imām Mahdī (mGehr), after the formation of the Mahdavī government.

The other technique of the enemies against The Emergence, is destruction.

Destruction is done in two ways:

a ) Inducing doubt: They [the enemies] destroy the addresses’ minds and distort the belief, by coining some questions and doubts, in a cunning way!
b) Humiliation and ridiculing: As in the early Islamic Era, the enemies usually ridicule the believers.

Have we ever had any divine call in the past?

When His Excellency ʿAlī (pbuh) showed those brevities and sacrifices in in the Battle of Uhud1, Gabriel called,”الاسیف الّا دوالفقار، ولا فتی الّا علی”2 And the people who were present, heard it from the sky…

Zayd ibn Wahab3 told Ibn Masūd4, ‘ʿAlī resistance in Uhud was the matter of marvel!’

Ibn Masud reacted, ‘You are not the only one who wonders! Even the other angels were verily marveled! Haven’t you heard that while he was ascending to sky, Gabriel called, “الاسیف الّا دوالفقار، ولا فتی الّا علی?!

The signs to recognize and identify Imām Mahdī (mgehr), from false claimers.

If you have doubts about the event [The Emergence], you will become sure by: seeing “Prophet of God (pbuh&h)’s promise, the flag, the arm”1, and one of Imām Huṣayn (pbuh)’s offspring “Nafs al- Zakiyyah”. But if you have doubts again, you will become definite by hearing “The Divine Call2” which calls upon his [Imām Mahdī (mgehr)’s] name and his divine duty3. (Tafsīr al- Najashi, Volume 1, Page 65)
