Had an affinity with midnight
Of his bosom, night was quite aware
God’s mystery had midnight as intimate

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?!
M like Mother!
Although there is not any available, and clearly explicit biography of Imām Mahdī (mgehr)’s mother, based on the well- known assumption_ from some narrations_ she played the role of a slave who had been captured in the war, in order to join Imām Askarī (pbuh)’s respected family at last. [It had been planned before, by Imām Askarī (pbuh)’s father; Imām Hādī (pbuh) in order to save her. Then she married Imām Askarī, as she had dreamt it in a heavenly dream.]
The Light of the Guidance
With his martyrdom,
Imam Huṣayn (pbuh) disgraced Umayyad government. And this led to its destruction at last.
Likewise, by his emergence, Imām Zamān (mgehr) will cause a disgrace in all of the oppressing government in the world.
The objective of Nafs al- Zakiyyah

1- He will be sent to Mecca by Imām al -ˈAsre [Imām Zamān (mgehr)], in order to give ultimatum1. So, they won’t later have any excuse not to help the Imām (mgehr).
Al- Nafs al- Zakiyyah’s name and title
In one or two narrations, they named [Al- Nafs] “Muḥammad ibn al- Haṣan”. But because they are weak in terms of document, they aren’t reliable.
In most narrations, he wasn’t pointed to by his real name. He was just pointed to, by the title or kind of that. They are such as:
1- Al- Nafs: This refers to the very Nafs al- Zakiyyah.
