When Imam Ali (peace be upon him) challenged Muawiyah to a duel during the Battle of Saffin so that people could be spared from the war with the death of one of them.
Amr ibn al-As said to Muawiyah: “Imam Ali has been fair to you, and it would be best if you yourself confronted him.”
The Messenger of God (pbuh&h) stated, “Don’t consider the seditions of the Last Era as malevolent! It’s because they can ruin the hypocrites!â€
[Yes,] he mentioned that the seditions are needed to exist. He stated:
لَتَغْرَبَّنَ غَربَله
To sift through His [God’s] sieve
Alī bn al Huṣayn (pbuh) stated, ‘One day, the Messenger of God (pbuh&h) and his companions were sitting in the mosque. Then, he stated, ‘[Now], a man of heaven will enter and ask about the matters which are related to him!
Our Prophet (pbuh&h) who is the best prophet…, the most modest among people, the most tolerant, the most generous and open- handed person, and the bravest in supporting his household.  (Kashf al Ghumma: Vol. 4, Page 26)
*There is a need for us to be connected to His Excellency, through reciting honest Du’a al-Baha1. We are expected to hold the religious meetings, for reciting all the worshipping and Mathur prayers2 which where stated by the Excellency.
*Our main Dawn prayer, is expected to be for ImÄm ZamÄn (mGehr). It shouldn’t be recited in our language, but narrated from [Infallible] ImÄms. One of them, is the Adh Prayer3. The other, is ImÄm Riá¸Ä (pbuh)’s prayer for ImÄm ZamÄn (pbuh) which looks very important, to me. It is as follows:
There is an astounding narration by ImÄm KÄdhim (pbuh), which is as follows:
If I investigate among my Shiites, I see that they only claim to act! And if I test them, they will turn to commit heresy (disbelief)!
If I purify them, there will be just one pure and honest among one thousands! Also, if I sift the people, just my special ones and family members will be around me!
According to most hadiths, the number of companions of ImÄm ZamÄn (mgehr) is 313, who will miraculously gather around the Imam in a day or night in Mecca from near and distant places. Among them will be the Prophet Jesus (Pbuh), some companions of the Prophet Muḥammad (Pbuh&hf) and Imams (Pbuth) such as Salman al-Farsi and MÄlik b. HÄrith al-NakhaÊ¿Ä«. Women are also among the companions of the His Majesty.
The Prophet (PBUH)’s name is mentioned in Qur’an five times; once the name Aḥmad and four other times the name Muḥammad. Prophet Moses [pbuh]’s name has occurred 136 times in Qur’an. More than 900 verses of Qur’an are about the children of Israel without which, the subject of ImÄm MahdÄ« (mgehr)’s emergence cannot be initiated. The noble prophet [of Islam] (pbuh) stated, “No lizard goes to a hole in the children of Israel unless it will happen to my nation as well.†(Muntakhab al-’Athar, p. 98)
One must know the nation of Israel, in order to learn Enemyology[1], because God has stated, “Surely You will find the most hostile of all people towards the faithful to be the Jews and the polytheists.†(Al-MÄ’idah 5:82)
the ImÄm wrote a nice letter in Latin language and in Latin style handwriting. Then, he sealed it with his seal. He also took out a sack that was full of gold and had two hundred and twenty Ashrafi1. He stated, ‘Take this letter and gold, head to BaqdÄd. Then you should be present at such bridge on such day.
When the ships that carry the captives landed on the shore, you could see a crowd of bondmen. Also, a group of deputies of Bani AbbÄs’s Emirs and a few Arab young men will gather around them. All day long, you have to be on the lookout for the slaver named “Amroo ibn YazÄ«dâ€. You will wait until the time, he introduces the bondwoman who has such and such features… she will wear silk clothes.
Not only did religion provide some programs for us to have a calm life, but also it persisted in it. This calmness has various aspects: physical, mental, personal, social, vocational, and non-vocational. It also includes the ways to eat, wear clothes, have private affairs among the married ones, sleep calmly, relationships with neighbors and friends.
On the whole, if you want to figure out whether you are close to God or not, you can see whether you are calm or not!
