Presence of Imam Mahdi (A.S.)

In the Name of the Most High

Imam Ali (AS) states that: the friends of Imam Mahdi (AS) do not fear of anyone other than Allah and they seek martyrdom.

Imam Ali ( AS) states that: fear is the greatest sin.

(Fear of one other than Allah, fear of inability, fear of illness, fear of not reaching at ambitions and dreams, fear of becoming alone, etc.)

 In sum, these fears would prompt human to tell a lie and to commit theft and obtain and eat haraam ( illegitimate) property.

The Almighty Allah examine human being with fear,

وَلَنَبْلُوَنَّکُمْ بِشَیْءٍ مِّنَ الْخَوفْ وَالْجُوعِ وَنَقْصٍ مِّنَ الأَمَوَالِ وَالأنفُسِ وَالثَّمَرَاتِ وَبَشِّرِ الصَّابِرِینَ

And we will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient,

Holy Koran, 2:155

Fear of one other than the Creature is the root of all sins. Having in mind the

In the Holy Koran, 3: 175,

إِنَّمَا ذَلِکُمُ الشَّیْطَانُ یُخَوِّفُ أَوْلِیَاءهُ فَلاَ تَخَافُوهُمْ وَخَافُونِ إِن کُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِینَ

 it reads: That is only Satan who frightens his supporters. So fear them not, but fear Me, if you are [indeed] believers.

This very verse shows that Satan causes fear of everything other than Allah, and contradictions would never collocate.

 That is why the Almighty Allah determines to discard that fear to replace His fear in our hearts.He says “don’t fear” لا تخف      (20:68)

الا بذکرالله تطمئن القلوب (13:28)

“Unquestionably, by the remembrance of Allah hearts are assured”

Almighty Allah and that He is always with us would bring calmness and hinders a fear of one other than Him.

Holy Koran, 13: 28

Imam Mahdi ( AS) is Hojjat and Baghiat  of Allah, he himself is the remembrance of Allah.

Perceiving his presence and believing in the ever sympathy of Imam Mahdi ( AS) with us would bring calmness to our hearts. The calmness resulted from perception of his presence eradicates any fear save Allah.

 The Almighty Allah has repeatedly reiterated in the holy Koran that do not be frightened and introduced His successors on the Earth ( Oliaollah) as such,

ان اولیاء الله لا خوف علیهم و لا هم یحزنون(10:62)

The collocation of contradictions is impossible, a heart that is calm due to seeing the Almighty Allah and perceiving it’s Imam of the time would never be frightened by one other than Allah, thus piety would enter into his heart.

 Piety is twofold: 1. Fear of the punishment of Allah or of His lonesome. 2. No fear of one other than Allah and refraining from one other than Him. As mentioned in the interpretations of the Holy Koran, this is utterly true that when human being feels himself monitored divinely, he would refrain himself from thinking of sin let alone to do it. And that is understanding the presence of Almighty Allah that requires a means to understand. As Koran says :

وابتغوا الیه الوسیله(5:35)

That means   is now Imam Mahdi ( AS), understanding the presence of Allah is materialized when understanding  the presence of Imam is internalized. In addition, in the preceding verse, that is 174, poses the response to fear of disasters and so on, if human beings incline to the blessings of Allah, they would not suffer from any difficulties and agonies and the Almighty Allah would be satisfied. As mentioned in the interpretations, the blessing of Allah is His hojjat  on earth. It means:

The perception of Imam Mahdi’s presence.
