 Allahumma salli ala Muhammad wa ala Muhammad wa ajil fi faraja ala Muhammad wa laan wa ahlika a'daahum ajma'een wa jaalna min khaira a'wanahim wa ansarahim wa khuddamahim My most sincere greetings to you dear viewers of Imam Hussein TV Well, during this episode broadcast to you through Imam Hussein TV I would like to recite a Hadith from Imam Bagher, the fifth holy Imam of Shia In this Hadith Imam actually talks about Imam al-Mahdi, the Imam of our time Mahdi, his Holiness, his Majesty And of course Imam highlights some of the features of the Imam Mahdi al-Salam in this Hadith And I selected this Hadith for the purpose that we all sort of try to connect with our Imam In a sort of strong way which is unbreakable and which is unshakable So here goes the Hadith Qala Imam al-Baghra al-Salam For the reason that the Hadith is quite longish I'm going to just recite the Hadith to you actually breaking it down to parts I'm going to recite it to you part by part and then try to of course give you a translation and perhaps some elaboration So Imam Baghra al-Salam says Ya'aba Hamza who was a very close companion of Imam Sajjad al-Salam Imam Baghra al-Salam as well as Imam Sada al-Salam It means among those phenomena which will undoubtedly, without a doubt, which will undoubtedly happen Is the uprising of Imam Mahdi al-Salam our Qa'imana So if one person doubts in what I am saying He will of course on the Day of Judgment enter the presence of Divinity while he is in the state of denial towards Allah He will of course on the Day of Judgment enter the presence of Divinity while he is in the state of denial towards Allah He will of course on the Day of Judgment enter the presence of Divinity while he is in the state of denial towards Allah He will of course on the Day of Judgment enter the presence of Divinity while he is in the state of denial towards Allah This particular phrase in Arabic like Be'abi wa Ummi is a profound expression of paying homage to somebody So the Imam is actually using this expression to pay his most sincere and deepest homage to Imam Mahdi al-Salam Be'abi wa Ummi al-Musami bismi after paying that homage to the person Imam Mahdi al-Salam who bears the same name as I do Muhammed Wa al-Mukanni be Kuniyati He actually bears the same nickname that I do Of course that is just a translation for your understanding But the term Kuniyah in Arabic has a slightly different and more profound meaning But that was just for the purpose of trying to get the message across The seventh of the succession of my children Which is Imam Mahdi al-Salam Again the Imam pays homage to his holiness Imam Mahdi al-Salam The one who will actually purify the earth Who will actually He will actually fulfill the earth with moderation, with justice and all virtues and equity In other words, he will let these virtues rule the world and prevail Following the immersion of the world in tyranny and in oppression Ya Aba Hamza Again the Imam is talking to Aba Hamza, his companion Man ad-rakahu One who actually is present in his time Like us who have the fortune and blessing of being the follower inshallah of Imam Mahdi al-Salam It is an obligation upon him to be in submissive obedience Of his majesty Imam Mahdi al-Salam In the same manner that he submitted to the Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa alaihi An Amir al-Mu'min To Muhammad al-Mu'min So one who does so This submissive adherence and submissive following of the Imam And accepting his authority What is the consequence and reward for that? Meaning that paradise will be his, let's say, undisputable entitlement He will definitely receive as reward entrance to paradise Wa man lam yusallim But one who decides not to submissively obey the Imam Mahdi al-Salam Faqat harram Allah alaihi jannah Indeed, then God has forbidden him from entering the paradise Wa ma'wahun naar He will certainly be placed in hellfire Wa ba'isamath wa dhalameen And how unpleasant and adverse is the dwelling of wrongdoers Well, I hope that these beautiful words of Imam Baqir al-Salam In paying homage to Imam Mahdi al-Salam And at the same time reminding us the importance of submissive obedience Of his authority and adherence to Imam Mahdi al-Salam Will just bring us a little bit closer to Imam Mahdi al-Salam And inshallah places among his true and sincere followers and aides Thank you very much for watching another episode of this program And have a most wonderful night, thank you, goodbye
