IN THE NAME OF GOD

Congratulations on birthday of Imam Hassan Mojtaba (Peace be Upon Him)

 During the life of sacred prophet of Islam, the events happed in 3rd year of Hijrat are mentioned as follows. Hazrat Imam Hassan Mojtaba (p.b.u.h.) the eldest son was born in the same year in Medina. It has been narrated that the sacred child was born in the middle of month Ramadan, the best of months of God.

He was well known as Abou Mohammad and had no other epithet. He had some titles as Sebt, Zaki, Mojtaba, Seyed, Taghi, Tayeb, Vali, …

But, in this essay, we seize the opportunity to describe and explain a verse of Koran about the acts of innocent Imams, so that we might introduce this great man more deeply.

Almighty God prescribed: I elected Abram, Esmaeil, Isaac, as prophets to guide the people upon My command and I inspired them the deserved works, praying, payment of tithe, and they were worshipping Me as it was their ideology. (Sura: Anbia, verse: 73)

Considering the meaning of revelation of charity to the Imams peace be upon him:

In the above sentence God prescribes: the soul of charitable acts they were performing made our revelation.

Considering the meaning of formative revelation:

In the verse considered Almighty God does not prescribe: “We sent revelation to them to fulfill charity”, but He prescribes: “Their outer acts were the same as our revelation, we sent as our revelation the charity acts they were doing”. In this case, the soul of their acts was considered in the revelation.

Thus, we should see how it is possible that the act is inspired? To make it clear, we consider Holy Koran: “ Your God inspired honey bee to make a house for itself in the mountains, trees, and ceilings of the homes. Then, eat of all types of fruits and take the paths God has introduced to you, by being submissive. (sura: Nahl, verse: 68, 69)

Was the revelation to honey bee the same as revelation to the heart of the prophets which was all the time reaching the heart of honey bee? To make the house in this form or not, to stay here or there, on this flower or that? Or it is in another form, and God has created the animal so that it takes all actions upon God’s will and the animal lives without intervention of carnal soul and the void wishes according to a determined plan which God has determined for him in the world of conception. At any time, upon command of God it takes the path God has determined and he sits on any different flower its nature determines then it sucks the juice of the flower and makes a strange geometrical home. This is the incipient revelation. It means that God has regulated in the world of conception all its acts and status and takes it to the ways of prosperity and nice acts according to the plan of creation without intervention of any outer case which might deviate it from the right path.

Revelation of Charity to the Imams:

The sacred verse of Koran states that “We inspired the act of charity to them” it means that all the deserved acts which emerges out of them, shall be under Our command and their divinity is at our hands. Thus, their acts comes without intervention of any thought out of animal soul or selfish desire.

As long as eyes of the man have not been opened to God and has not gradually forgot the stages of his being to join God, he sees all the acts for himself and takes them for obtaining a conclusion, a result. But, if he takes the stage of slavery honestly, he gradually observes the absolute powers and sciences of God and discovers the stages of monotheism in his being, so he no more comprehends his existence, so that for its survival and for preserving it to attract the profit and to remove the loss. He considers himself in the hands of God as a wax inside the powerful hands of God, quite submissive. Because, by rise of the sun of truth and by observation of the absolute face and life and absolute science, he has seen his own being as a mirage and can not do anything for himself and for his benefits. Any work he does under such conditions, is the work of truth. Therefore, it might be said that the soul of acts of Imams sever as revelation of God.
