 Since every human being is mortal, then how can Imam al-Mahdi live so long? Yes, everyone but Allah is mortal. And as a matter of fact, there will become a time when Imam al-Mahdi will pass away as well. What is the difference in the length of life in this world and has the Qur'an informed us and the traditions of Ahlul Bayt inform us of individuals who have lived a long life in this world? What's the role of science in proving such a phenomena? On the other hand, what is the reason behind the occultation of the 12th Imam? Is this state beneficial for the general population or does this absence of such an important character increase the corruption which exists today? Such questions raise issues and misconceptions within the Islamic nations. This is why my dear guest tonight, Sayyid Muzaffar Al-Qazweeni, have dedicated tonight's episode to discuss the reasons behind the occultation of the Awaited Imam. Respected viewers, brothers and sisters in Islam, As-salamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. Welcome to the second episode of the Awaited Apostle with Meer host Ahmad Ali. Respected viewers, once again, I do welcome you to the second episode of the Awaited Apostle with Meer host Ahmad Ali. But in the previous episode, in yesterday's episode, we discussed some of the evidences regarding the existence of our Awaited Imam, Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his reappearance. But for the sake of the episode and for the sake of tonight's episode, I am honored to host this program once again with my dear guest, Sayyid Muzaffar Al-Qazweeni. As-salamu alaikum Sayyidina. How are you? Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah. As we can see behind you there, Masha'Allah, Karbala is flourishing between Haramain, the Holy Shrines, and Salam al-Fasayn of Allah Abbas are decorated for the upcoming birth of Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his reappearance. But Sayyidina, the Hanafi scholar, the grandson of Al-Jawzi, in his book, Tathkarat al-Khawas, page 325 to 328, gives the names of 22 people who are believed by Muslims to have lived a long life, varying from 3,000 down to 300. When we do hear that, we find that it's not weird for a person to live long, especially if Allah swt had a distance in two. But historically speaking, how is it possible that Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his reappearance, lived for so long, up to now it's 1200 years, and are there any individuals from history that are mentioned who have lived a very long age? For giving any examples, the first thing to clarify is that the life span of every single individual or anything created by Allah swt, is in the hands of Allah swt, His Creator. So Allah swt, our Creator, our Lord, gives us either a long life or a short life, what He wishes to give His creation. Some people live for a very short age, and some people live for a very long time, depending on how much Allah swt gives them. But the example that I would like to give, and the example that Imam al-Sadiq, a.s., gives is the example of Abdu'l-Salih, Khidr, a.s., and Imam al-Sadiq, a.s., says that Allah swt only gave Khidr such a long life, the only reason was so when people ask, is it possible, is it possible for a person to live for so long? Khidr comes as an example. This is the response of Imam al-Sadiq, a.s., not today, not after 14 centuries, but even before the birth of Abab Mahdi, a.s., when his companions asked him, and he would tell his companions about the Qa'im of al-Muhammad, the awaited apostle of al-Muhammad, the 12th Imam, because the imams, even the Prophet peace be upon him, we have thousands of hadiths by our Prophet peace be upon him about Imam Mahdi from Amir al-Mu'mineen, and every single Imam. So they spoke about the 12th Imam, about the awaited one, about the 12th Imam, and how the time would be during his ghaybah. Sorry, yeah, just for the noises outside, we do apologize, but as you can hear behind us, the lovers of al-Hadbait, al-Alim as-salam, are rejoicing the atmosphere here in the holy city of Karbala. So they are walking by our studio right now. So insha'Allah, yassaydna. So Imam al-Sadiq, a.s., in a gathering, he tells his companions about the long lifespan of the 12th Imam, and how mainly the time of his life he will be in occultation, ghaybah, and how that would be. So he's asked, just like how people ask today, how can he live such a long life? And this was the answer of Imam Jafar al-Sadiq, al-Alim, that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala created khidr, al-Abdu s-salih, and gave him such a long life and made it known to all Muslims and all people of the book, and those who study religions and beliefs that this person was given and granted such a long life. And he is an example of a person who could live for thousands and thousands of years, so there is no problem if you believe it in khidr, then you should believe it in Imam al-Mahdi, yajalAllah, farajahu as-salih. One time I read a report regarding khidr, you mentioned, that up to now he's actually lived more than 3,000 years. How, when he was born and how long he's been living, I'm not sure, but as we can see, he was with Musa, alaihi s-salam, with Moses, and when Moses met him, he was not a young man or, you know, he was already an old man that, you know, basically taught Musa or took Musa on a journey in which Musa did not know of what was going on and so on and so forth because of, and the story is mentioned in the Holy Quran. But so, how long ago was Moses, alaihi s-salam, and how many years was he born before the time of Moses, peace be upon him, but we know that, you know, from the time of Musa, alaihi s-salam, told today he's been alive and that's much longer than, you know, 1,200 years which our Imam, our 12th Imam has gone into ghaibah or his life span. But just to add upon that point, we have Jesus, peace be upon him, according, if he wants to go both sides, if he did die, if he did get crucified or he did not, according to Muslims, yet he was reincarnated and then he went into occultations, according to the Biblical texture. But when he wants to come to the Quranic texts, we do find that Jesus is approximately 1,995 years old. According to all Muslims, they should believe this. All divinely revealed religions, they believe that Jesus went into occultation and until now, he's still alive. So we do find that. And just to mention, I am taking a portion of the episode, but a group of scientists conducted a couple of experiments at Rockfield Institute in New York in 1912. Their experiment, the experiment that was conducted, one that directly treated the nerves, muscles, heart, skin, kidneys of the human beings and they concluded that these parts or organs can continue to live almost indefinitely as long as they are nursed properly and as long as they are shielded from external negative interactions with microbes and other obstacles to continue their function. So they're saying they concluded that the heart and the organs of a human being can continue. This is scientifically speaking, if you want to come to science and the people that refute traditions, refute verses from the Quran, when you come to science, science proves what the Quran, what the prophets are going through. And there you have it. This is how the Imam is able to live for so long, since Khadr and Jesus and the other prophets did. But Sayyidina, since now that we have provided evidences for the long life of our 12th-awaited Imam and how he is able to live that long, I want to get into another yet related topic. We know that Imam Mehdi, may Allah hasten his reappearance, went into occultation in 260 after Hijrah. He was five years old after the murder of his father. He went into occultation and the last time he was seen in the basement, the cellar of occultation, the question that is always raised Sayyidina is that why occultation? Why couldn't the Imam reappear after 50 years after the first occultation? Why can't he reappear 100 years ago, five years ago? Why is he still in occultation? Why is in the hands of Allah SWT? The hadith says if Allah SWT chooses to have the Imam reappear, his reappearance will happen overnight. So this is all according to certain things that need to occur and certain things that need to happen. His reappearance is all in the hands of Allah SWT when Allah SWT sees that mankind in this universe is fit to have the Imam reappear and fit to see the sun again and fit to have the representative of Allah SWT, the vice-jarrans, the proof of Allah SWT to live amongst them. So this is mainly why it's taking so long. Now the reasons why ghayb has taken so long, we'll get to that inshallah after the break, but before the break is we wanted to discuss is this something normal when it comes to the way Allah SWT planned for His prophets, messengers and nations or is the 12th Imam the first representative of Allah SWT to go into ghayb or occultation? So inshallah before we go into the break I will give as many examples that I could in the time being of prophets and messengers that went into occultation from their nations, from their people for certain reasons. The reasons inshallah we will also give but is our Imam the first Imam or representative of Allah SWT to disappear from His people. As we know of the name of the prophet Idris, Idris alayhi was-salatu was-salam lived amongst his people and amongst his people there was a tyrant, a king who lived in tyranny, he oppressed his people and he did not believe in the words and the commandments of Idris. One day this king is on you know a hunting voyage so he gets to this vineyard and he sees this vineyard to be very beautiful he asks who does this vineyard belong to they go and acquire about the person who owns the land and they tell him this vineyard this land belongs to such and such man so he summons him he tells him I want this land I want it to be mine the man refuses and he says if I give this land to you then I'm taking I'm giving away what my family and my children are living off of you know so basically I'm taking the food out of the mouths of my my kids my children my family and I'm giving it to you so you have to forgive me I can't give you this fly so this king becomes very disappointed angered anguished he goes back to his castle and it's said that this king had you know a very close lady to him she might have been a gypsy so he used to take her advice he used to you know be very close to her in every sense possible so he tells her what's going on when she you know tells him I feel I feel like you're not comfortable you're very mad today he tells her the story she tells him I'll take care of it she's the king asks how she says I will send you know about 40 of my supporters who are also gypsies or whatnot or and we'll say that this person is no longer believing in your religion and now he's a non-believer so he must be killed and we kill him and we take his land so and this actually occurs she sends people to his land they call him a non-believer and he's killed so Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala summons Idris alayhi salam he tells him that this man was killed by injustice and me as a merciful lord I will take vengeance of this injustice I will destroy the nation of this king and I will make his kingdom perish and oh Idris I want you to go tell this king that what you have done has you know made your creator angry and this is the results and the outcomes of of of your injustice and tyranny so Idris goes and tells this king and again the king tells this lady this lady again gives advice to the king that I will take care of Idris I will kill him Idris on almost every daily basis gets together with his companions basically he teaches them and they learn from him and they're together and you know there's just harmony between them time comes they see you know these hooligans the supporters of this lady they have come you know with armor and and and swords and whatnot looking for Idris so you know they they tell Idris to be careful and that these people have come to take his life so Idris is summoned by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to go into occultation and Idris goes into occultation fearing for his life for 20 years now the rest of the story of what happens during these 20 years uh inshallah it's a it's a different subject a different matter a different issue but as for all Muslims agree that Idris went into occultation and gave up for 20 years and after 20 years he reappeared upon his nation and upon his people as a savior and this is the story of Idris yes same thing with Prophet Saleh alayhi afzal as-salatu wa s-salam the prophet that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala mentions in the holy Quran that a she camel his his miracle the she camel who came out from the mountain and would give his nation the nation of Saleh milk a whole day she would give them milk and a whole day she would drink up their water until someone came and killed the she camel the famous story that's mentioned in the Quran so after the she camel was killed also historians and scholars say that Saleh also went into ghaibah an occultation for god knows how long but also scholars state that Saleh came back to his nation after such a long period of time when he was a young man he left them you know he's tall strong handsome but he came back to them now after such a long time where his back has you know been you know he has a hunchback now and he's an old man they can't they can't you know really figure out whether it's him or not him and his nation now have scattered into three groups those who do not believe in him at all those who are you know reluctant and those who believe and after such a long period of time he comes back and as a savior to his nation and he saves those who believe in him and that's all after they ask him for a miracle and ask him if he is Saleh to give them proof of what happened with Saleh before his disappearance or ghaibah and same thing with ibrahim alayhi wa sallatu wa sallam all historians and scholars mentioned that after namrud launched ibrahim over the fire or into the fire and Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala saved him from that blazing fire that ibrahim alayhi wa sallatu wa sallam went to into ghaibah from his nation from his people from you know the people of of namrud the people of Babylon for god knows how long and same thing with our beloved prophet peace be upon him that for three consecutive years he left the people of mecca and shiab abhi talib and he lived in you know the alleyway of abu talib alayhi aflal sallatu wa sallam the father of ali ibn abhi talib peace be upon him uh abu talib which was a protector of uh rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi the protector of this religion and the person who defended rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi for these consecutive years and sacrificed his his life and the life of his son ali ibn abhi talib and jeopardized the life of his family in the sake of of rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi so rasulullah left the people of mecca for three years and he did not see the people of mecca for three years in fear for his life when it became in a way that if rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi was seen even close people like abu lahab his uncle would send children to throw stones and rocks and pebbles and thorns on rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi and we know of several assassination attempts that were placed on the life of rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi so rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi left his people yes and this is all ghaiba is leaving your people you're no longer with them so they no longer see you and you know the people of mecca no longer saw rasulullah for three consecutive years and even when he was not in shababi talib he was in ghar hara he was in the mount of hara away from people so he could worship freely because we all know that when rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi would pray next to masjid al haram they would bring the insides and that's intestines of sheep they would you know throw rocks at him they broke his forehead they broke his front teeth by stoning him because of conducting his prayers so rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi would leave the people of mecca for consecutive days and be alone in the in the cave of hara or in shababi talib now how it's the differences is the period of time yes for it was 20 years for ibrahim it was this x amount of years for salih was x amount of years and for our imam uh due to to to the reasons that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala knows and has been a much longer time now what are the reasons inshallah we'll get back to that inshallah after after the short break thank you very much say the start to get you off but respected viewers now we have concluded the first part of the episode regarding the occultation of you know mehdi and the examples from history regarding occultation so stay tuned after the episode because we are going to discuss more significant topics that's after the him respect the viewers welcome back hope you inshallah enjoyed that short reports But before the break, we did talk about why occultation and before that we brought examples or mystery of individuals who lived a very long time and compared that to the lifespan of our 12th Imam, the Awaited Imam, al-Mehdi, may Allah hasten his reappearance. But to continue the discussion with my dear guest, Sayyid al-Mulaffar, welcome back. How are you Sayyidina? I'm fine. May Allah bless you. May Allah bless you. Sayyidina, we did talk about why occultation and you did bring examples of prophets and as well as Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, his purified household, how he went into occultation. So it's not something new. It's been proven through history and historically speaking, many people have lived long and many people, prophets have went into occultation. But we talked about anger of Allah. What anger is Allah? To speak about why Allah swt chooses to have his messengers or prophets leave their nations or to go into Ghayban occultation. The reasons inshallah will go into several reasons but to speak about the first reason, the Hadith of Imam al-Baqir, peace be upon him, says, if the anger of Allah is blessed and the creation of Allah is cursed by their neighbors, if Allah swt becomes angry with his creations, with the sons of Adam, he will remove us, the source of mercy, the proof of Allah swt, the means to directly connect with Allah swt from the people. So what anger is Allah swt? We as individuals, we all have a certain understanding of what anger is Allah swt. We know for example what anger is our parents, we know what anger is our spouse, you know there are things that it's clear for every individual what causes, for example, your friends to become angry, your parents to become angry, your boss to become angry, and there are definitely things that make our creator Allah swt angry. And one and most important is sinning and injustice, tyranny. And when Allah swt sees that the world today is painted by injustice, of course this makes Allah swt angry. So when Allah swt becomes angry, he removes his sign of peace and tranquility from the people of his time. So it's basically a mean of discipline. We as individuals today on personal levels, every single one of us might do things on daily basis that we know Allah swt would not be pleased with such actions, you know, whether we're living in the Middle East or we're living in the West, we know on daily basis we are doing things that does not make Allah swt happy. On the other hand, this is my anger Allah swt our creator. And every single one of us knows this on personal levels, you know, you don't even have to go on, you know, community levels or basically what a whole country is doing or what a whole ethnicity is doing and so on and so forth. But basically if you go down to the most simple of ways that me as a person, the things that I do in my personal life are these things making Allah swt happy or angry with me. And if we, you know, look at it this way and we see that every single one of us is doing something that does not please Allah swt and is angering Allah swt. Do we deserve for, you know, the proof of Allah swt, the representative of Allah swt, the means of Allah's mercy upon His creations to be living amongst us. So from what I got from what you just mentioned right there, is Allah angry with us that He removed Imam al-Mahdi from our presence? This is, you know, one of, as of the words of Imam al-Baqr, alaihi wa sallati wa sallam, he has to be, you know, because if we look at the life of every single Imam or the life of every single prophet before us that were sent into the sons of Adam and prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger, Imam after Imam, they were either killed or poisoned by the sons of Adam, so of course Allah swt is not pleased with the sons of Adam, you know. If you look at, you know, starting from Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa ala, Rasulullah says it was not a prophet that Allah swt sent who was, you know, harmed and hurt like I was in my life. So hurting Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa ala does not make Allah swt happy, told today, you know, Muslims are harming the image of Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa ala. And this, this of course angers Allah swt. The first Imam, Amir al-Mu'mineen alaihi wa sallati wa sallam, Ali ibn Abi Talib was murdered. Imam al-Hasan was poisoned, Imam al-Hasan was butchered in the land of Karbala and every single Imam was either poisoned or killed, Imam al-Hasan was butchered in the land of Karbala and every single Imam was either poisoned or killed. So to the time of Imam al-Hasan al-Azkari who was also poisoned and killed in his life was taken, of course Allah swt is not happy with the sons of Adam. And we need to work upon making Allah swt happy with us again as the sons of Adam, as you know, Allah swt gave us a brain and differentiated us from different animals and creations. We need to work to our capabilities to make Allah swt happy once again as the hadith says that if Allah swt found the same number of the people who fought alongside with Rasul Allah sallallahu alaihi wa ala on the day of bed 313 individuals that Allah swt is pleased with and is happy with then the Imam, the Qa'im of al-Muhammad would reappear and his Qa'iban accultation would come to an end. So we as individuals, we as Muslims, we have to realize that Allah swt is disciplining us now. You know, when a parent is displeased with his child, he grounds him. He takes away from him what is most important to him. For example, if he is a 16-17 year old boy, he will take away his license or his car, his phone, his PS4, his Xbox One. And to him, this is a sign of discipline. But for Allah swt to discipline mankind, he takes away from them what matters most. What's most precious. What's most precious and that is Ahlul Bayt and the Savior, the person who would come back and reveal peace and tranquility upon mankind and bring back justice in this time of tyranny and injustice. So if man wants tranquility and peace once again, it needs to discipline itself. So Allah swt has the Imam reappeared. Definitely. InshaAllah, we'll touch upon these points in the upcoming episodes when we do talk about what hastens the Imam and what delays his reappearance. But for the sake of the argument, a scholar once said in history, when he was asked the same question, why accultation? Why is the Imam not reappearing yet? He says it's a test. Allah could send all people to paradise directly, but he didn't because he wanted to test us. The test of Allah is actually a test that proves the fact for ourselves as witness. Otherwise, Allah has foreknowledge of everything. And he concludes by saying, only those who are obedient to Allah deserve paradise. Now Allah is testing us that how we reappear is a simple environment that we live in. If somebody preserves himself from the corruption that goes on in the world right now, we do see that there's a lot of corruption. And for that reason, if someone preserves himself from the sinful environment, from that corruption, Allah swt will direct him to the right path. And for that reason Sayyidina, is it a test upon us? We do see that Allah is angry and disciplined at the same time. So if we put them together, it's some kind of test, no? Of course. It's a test. Allah swt wants to see how much of an effort does Bullah Farqazwini make or every single individual make to have their Imam reappear. Do we on daily basis, on a monthly base, on an annual base, even make slight efforts to do something that our Imam reappears? What effort do we make to please Allah swt once again? If my parents ground me because my grades were low during this semester or school year, I would have to make an effort so my parents are pleased with me once again, and they remove this grounding upon me, so I'm no longer grounded. I have to please my parents once again. My boss puts me on a lower salary and certain things in life, but I have to show my effort to that, no? I could come back to what you want me to be, and what Allah swt wants me to be, and these are my efforts. Do we show efforts on daily basis that we want our Imam back? We want the Messiah back? We want the Savior back as Muslims, Christians, Jews, sons of Adam. Are we making an effort that the Savior should come back again? At the time of the children of Egypt, they made efforts until Moses came back to them as a Savior. They would go into the desert, they would cry and plead, men, women, children that O Allah, we're tired of this tyranny, O our Creator, we're tired of this tyranny, send us the Messiah. At the time of Jesus, the same thing, but did that stop? It stopped because people today are not asking, mankind is not asking for a Messiah today. Mankind today is busy with their lavish lifestyles. Mankind today is busy thinking of basically just their own desires, daily desires, what this world has to offer from a lavish life, from going after what this world offers to them from seductions and pleasures, and that's it. They're not looking for the pleasures of their Creator, and Allah SWT, or going after the fact that we need a Messiah, even though they see that injustice, tyranny, and poverty, and death has taken upon mankind. And another reason that after doing some research, you can also comment on that, is Allah SWT wants to show the kids his creation, that there's no solution when time comes, and everyone is so desperate to find a solution, and all the solutions have been failed. The only resort that they can resort to is Imam Mehdi, may Allah help you. So some scholars do say that this may be one of the reasons that, for instance, we have communism, which began in Russia approximately 100 years ago, and that they thought this would be the best solution that they can do for everyone to live in prosperity. Yet that failed, and the same we have with capitalism, and that will fail too. But we do see everything is failing. You know, they have to realize that these things don't last, because they're not definitely. So go to Allah SWT, your Creator is telling you to go after, to find happiness. Another reason that I want to mention why Ghayban, occultation in the life of the representatives of Allah SWT, the same reason why Ibrahim went to occultation after Numrut tried to kill him, the same reason why Saleh went to Ghayban after they killed the she-camel and they tried to kill him, the same reason why Idris went into occultation after the king sent people to kill him. The hadith by Rasulullah SAW says, If the Imam were to come back now, why is he not coming back now? Because he fears for his life. You know, he fears that he will be killed when he does not have enough supporters. You don't have enough supporters, you're on your own and you have, you know, the whole world against you. You have these supreme powers today that they own, they're thriving of power, they're thriving of, you know, their weapons of mass destruction, they're thriving of billions of dollars. Now there's a person who's, you know, coming as a representative of Allah and wants to stop all the injustice that's going on in the world. They're going to go after him, you know, when he says that he's going to be an outcast. He's going to be an outcast, he's going to be someone that every single government agency, every single, you know, agency is going to be after him. So a lot of assassins. They're going to send assassins after him, they're going to send, you know, paid and hired guns to kill him. So just like the prophets before feared, you know, for their, not just for their lives, but they fear that the message of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will not reach mankind. And this is the only thing they fear for. The Imam does not fear for his life because when Amir al-Mu'mineen alaihi wa s-salatu wa s-salam was hit by Ibn al-Muljab, he did not say that, you know, how pity, I lost my life, he said, fustu wa rabbil ka'bah, you know, I'm successful by the Lord of the Ka'bah. And so they saw as success, but the, you know, martyrdom for a person who believes in Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to die in the sake of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, you know, not what people think as in what, you know, the connotation, what it means now, you know, you, you just go blow yourself up and you know, not that a person who dies on the commandment of Allah, you know, he's, he's, he dies so he's, you know, raising his voice and prayers. He's fasting, he's giving charity, he's helping others. And there are those who cannot see a person, you know, thriving for peace on this earth. That person, if he's killed, he's considered a martyr. But Sayyidina, we have come to the end of the program. So do you have something? We have about one minute. Yes. So the Imam does not fear for his life on an individual level. He fears that if his life is taken, the message of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala does not reach the sons of Adam. Definitely. And the last and most important thing that I want to mention is the hadith by Imam Al-Baqir, alaihi wa s-salatu wa s-salam, by Jabir al-Ju'fi. He says, he asked the Imam, when will the appearance of the Messiah be? When will it be your turn? Imam Al-Sad, Imam Al-Baqir says, The Imam will appear over time when the so-called believers are filtered, and filtered, and filtered until only the pure are left. So this time span is a time for filter for those who claim to be believers and lovers of Ahl al-Bayt. Those who claim to be seeking Allah's pleasures, our Creator's pleasures, whether they are Muslims, Christians, or Jews, to be filtered, and only those who wish to have the true nation of God present on this earth, only when those people exist, the Messiah will reappear and be present upon this earth once again. Insha'Allah, Insha'Allah. Thank you very much, Sayyidina. But what I got from tonight's program is that whatever people do, it's always back to Allah Subh'anaHu, to Allah, and the will of Allah Subh'anaHu. Of course, it's all in the hands of Allah Subh'anaHu. He's waiting until everything fails. The only solution is... Of course. You know what we mentioned today is through hadiths that have been given to us through Ahl al-Bayt, or Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi. By the end of the day, my knowledge and your knowledge is very, you know, little compared to Ahl al-Bayt, alayhim wa ful-as-salatu wa s-salam, have when Allah Subh'anaHu gave them his knowledge, Divine knowledge. So we have to see what the Imam and the Prophet said. And at the end of the day, everything is in the hands of Allah Subh'anaHu. As I mentioned in the beginning of the episode, if Allah Subh'anaHu wants the Imam to appear overnight, then the Imam will appear overnight. Thank you very much, Sayyidina, for joining us tonight once again. Respect to the viewers. Thank you very much once again for tuning in. May Allah Subh'anaHu and Ta'ala give us the ability to enhance our spirituality to hasten the reappearance of our beloved Imam Al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his reappearance. Thank you very much for tuning in. Stay tuned for the upcoming episode. Wassalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wa barakatuh. Thank you very much.
