The goodness of the Last Era
When wickedness increases in the Last Era; well, you can say that goodness also increases. It is foolish that an individual just sees one side of a fact, and leaves the other side. Rather, it is wise to see both sides.

 People’s rights upon His Excellency (SÄhib al- ZamÄn (mgehr))
One of the most important features of the universal government of His Excellency Mahdī (mgehr), is to provide the basis for public welfare and comfort for all people. Obviously, it doesn’t refer to the welfare that causes people to turn away from God. Also, it doesn’t include the welfare which comes by itself, rather, it refers to the welfare that will be provided by the wisdom of His Majesty and the great effort of people.
  The conditions of receiving the Unseen [divine] Helps
According to the divine principles in the True religions, God helps to whoever He wants [deserves].1 However, as His will is of His wisdom, there are some disciplines and conditions to receive the specific helps. The most important of them, are as:
1-Â Â Â Faith
Why are we expected to pray for ImÄm ZamÄn (mgehr)’s health?
Every one of us has annoyed him for many years. While, [if we were him,] we wouldn’t tolerate even one second of it. As if, the ImÄm (mgehr) were one of the least important people in society; one of the lowest class people of society_ we seek refuge in God! Yet, we pray for his health “Be a guardian, a protector (ولیاً Ùˆ ØاÙظاً)â€. Also after the pilgrim “Ale Yasinâ€, we recite “O God, protect him from the evil of every transgressor and disobedient ((Ù…ÙÙ† شرّ کلّ باغ٠و طاغ, and from the evil of all your creatures, and protect him.”
Taking responsibility before WilÄya ‘s dutifulness.
We should take notice of the word responsibility, or taking responsibility, before the word obedience.
 Who will His Excellency give a command to? To the people who can take responsibility.
What is His Excellency’s most important command? Taking responsibility.
 If I cannot take any responsibility, the ImÄm will be left alone when he comes
We do a little!

The chains of sin have stuck me to the ground2
Other times, we haven’t [even] set off, or we have set off but it wasn’t the true way; we have been paving a [wrong] way.
Lost intention
While you are to say “Amen†when the people pray!â€
It is important; your idea is essential to God! Your intention is important to God. The thing you wish is essential to God. God has created the world for you!
The condition for looking forward to the Emergence
If someone attempts to reach the ImÄm (mgehr) and stays with him, nothing will harm him. However, this is very difficult, because this is the essence of the test that the Almighty God takes from us.
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.
Paying Attention to ImÄm ZamÄn (mgehr)
KhwÄja Aba á¹¢alt al-HirawÄ« was the only one who was aware of the martyrdom of ImÄm RÄ«á¸a (pbuh). MaʾmÅ«n ordered not to let him go free; as he knew about the martyrdom story and would inform the others. ‘Arrest him and send him to jail’ ordered MaʾmÅ«n.
