Regarding the issue, Ahl al Bayt1 (pbu th) presented some reasons for The Occultation:
1- Protecting the Imām (mGehr)’s life from the enemies’ dangers/ detriments.
[In this relation,] Zurārah2 narrated from Imām Ṣādiq (pbuh):
إِنً لِلْقَائِمَ غَیْبَۀِ قَبْلُ ظُهُورِهَ قُلْتَ وَ لِمُ قَالَ یَخَافوِ أَوْمَىبِیَدِهِ إِلَىَ بَطْنِهُ قَالزُرَارَۀَ یَعْنِیاَلْقَتْل
Indeed, the Qā’im will be absent before his appearance.
Imām Alī (pbuh): Whoever sees small sufferings as big, will be affected by big sufferings
Amīr al Mu’menin (pbuh) stated,
مَن عظَّم صغارَ المصائبِ ابتلاهُ اللهُ بِکِبارِها
(Nahj al Balāghah, Sermon 448)
“Whoever sees small sufferings as big, big sufferings will affect them.”
Once I went to Kūfah Mosque. I saw my Sir, Walī Aşr (mGehr) was busy with worshipping. There, I stood up and said Hi. He answered my hello and ordered me to get nearer. I just went a little forward, because of the ethics. He stated, ‘Come nearer!’ And I just went a little forward. Again he stated, ‘Come nearer!’ When I got nearer, he affectionately embraced me and kept me tight on his chest.
Then, whatever The Almighty God wanted, was transferred to my heart and chest….
Followers of Aḥmad Hamboushī claim that, according to authentic narrations from Ahl al-Bayt (pbu th), Imām Zamān (mgehr) had some children during his Major Occultation. One of whom is Aḥmad Ismail Hamboushī, whose one of the followers wrote, “I have proven in this research that, surly the narrations him are numerous, from the authentic documents, helpful for faiths”
Surely, I have proven in this research, that the narrations about the offspring are great in number, as well as having authentic document, which may be advantageous to the faith.
It has been mentioned in the book Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī that, the Holy Prophet (Pbuh&h) stated,
إِنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بَضْعَةٌ مِنِّی، مَنْ آذَاهَا فَقَدْ آذَانِی، وَ مَنْ غَاظَهَا فَقَدْ غَاظَنِی
Which means, “Fātimā (Pbuh) is part of me; whoever hurts her, they have hurt me. And whoever delights her, they have delighted me”. (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, publ. Dār Al-Jalīl, Beirut, V.7, P.47)
It also has been mentioned in four other pages that,
“وَ خَرَجَتْ فاطِمَةُ مِنَ الدُّنْیا وَ هِیَ غاضِبَةٌ عَلَیْهِما”
Which means, Fātimā (Pbuh) passed away, while she was angry with them: Abū Bakr and ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab. (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, V.9, P.185, And Faḍāʾil Khamise men al-Sahāh al-Sitta, V.3, P.190).
So, according to the principles of Sunnites, how can these two narrations fit together?
On the eve of Ramadan 17th, Prophet [Muḥammad] (pbuh&h) went to the Miʿrāj. The next morning, Satan came to his present and said:
O, the Messenger of God (pbuh&h)! The last night when you went to the Miʿrāj, in the fourth heaven, there was a broken and burnt pulpit on the left side (Baitul Ma’mur) that fell inverted. Did you know that pulpit, and did you find out whose it was?
Some opportunists make a similar product for every valuable and luxurious product! They have made the fake and artificial ones of whatever is originality and value. For example, no one thinks of producing fake 7000 Tumān bills. Unlikely, there are some people who have been producing 50000 fake Tumān bills. Well, this [the second one] has value and status in the eyes of the beloved ones.
Facing the twelfth Imām (mGehr), Sayyid Ḥasanī, will ask, “Do you have a reason, a miracle [it refers to Kirāmahs] or a sign? There, the Imām (mGehr) looks at the sky, points to a bird which sits on his hand, speaks with the power of God and testifies to the Imamate of the Imām!
In Ayatollah Khāmeneī’s point of view, the first and the most significant characteristic of the society which looks forward to the Emergence is that it has firm faith in the victory of truth against falsehood. Also, [it firm faith in] the sure fulfillment of God’s promise which will be the result of spreading justice, due to the emergence of the Promised Savior “His Excellency Mahdii (mGehr)”.
According to some translators and commentators of Nahj al-balāgha, this word announces the Emergence of His Majesty Mahdī (mgehr), and the dawn of justice, and refers to the general principle of “this darkness will end up by the dawn, and the dawn will be replaced by the morning.”
