IN THE NAME OF GOD
Congratulations to all the
Shiite of the world for Prosperous Birth of nbsp;Imam Mohammad Bagher
(peace be upon him)
Imam
Mohammad Bagher (peace be upon him) is the fifth shiny star in the sky of
Imamate, the seventh precious stone of the scene of innocents and elaborator of
the Islamic sciences. He spent the whole of his valuable life and all the
moments of his living on guidance of the human beings. Imam Bagher (p.b.u.h.)
used much the grounds having been prepared by his honorable father, Imam Sajad
(p.b.u.h.) towards introduction of Shiite school and fighting with the
oppressors and by education of distinguished students and by elaboration of pure
religion of Islam and the family of the prophet (p.b.u.h.), he took the greatest
action towards introduction of Shiite and the school of the family of prophet.
He was
present in Karbala and Ashoura of Imam Hossein when he was 40 years old and
accompanied his father in his travel to Kufeh and Sham and witnessed all the
events and was educated according to culture of Ashoura.
He was
a manifestation of higher human values and ethical attainments and all the
moments of his bright life were full of precious lessons for human beings.
Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) named him many years before he was
born and prescribed to Jaber Ibn Abdullah Ansari:
“Oh! Jaber! You will see one
of my sons who bears the same name as me and look likes me, he is some one who
breaks science just as a seed is broken out of which tree and fruits grow, he
elaborates and interprets science.”
To
find out the high scientific rank of Hazrat Imam Mohammad Bagher (p.b.u.h.), we
seize the opportunity to mention a part of his scientific discussion.
The
great pious mentioned his questions as follows:
“The
creature of God! tell me what is the time when it is neither night nor the day?”
Imam Bagher (p.b.u.h.) answered: “It is an hour from the time of morning praying
to sun rise.” The great pious asked: “so what is it, if it is neither the night
or the day?” Imam replied:
“It is an hour of paradise, when the patients are
cured and those having problems are relieved. God has considered this hour
sweetly for those who think about pandemonium and settlement of their conducts
by God, and the dark hearted ignore pleasure of this hour, passing it in sleep.”
The
great pious said: What you said, is quite correct, I have another question, tell
me, you say when those who should stay in paradise are sent there, they do not
excrete though they drink and eat all types of foods, is it possible in the
world? Imam Bagher (p.b.u.h.) prescribed: “Yes it is true about a child in his
mother’s thumb, what he eats is part of his body and he does not excrete.” The
great pious said” “You are right. I ask it again or do you have a question?”
Imam replied: ask me whatever you wish. He asked: “you say there is a tree in
the paradise, named: Touba, having different fruits, whatever the inhabitants of
paradise eat, none of its fruits will be lessen, is it also possible in the
world?” Imam replied: “Yes, it is like a flame in the world by which the other
things are flamed while it will not be removed itself. 1
Some
say that the pious man was inverted to Islam and Imam Bagher (p.b.u.h.) made him
a Muslim in one meeting. Imam Bagher (p.b.u.h.) states in a narration:
“No one
will love us but by making good and by being pious.”
We
hope he will help us and will support us in this way.
