On that unforgettable morning, so white and blue; The golden rays of the sun, riding on a gentle breeze, they flew!
Passed many plains and gardens, roses and lilies, covered with morning dew, Embraced the kisses and fragrance of the flowers, and then again they flew!The golden rays of the sun, landed at the door, where he was born, the Promised One, And delivered the bouquet of kisses and sweet fragrance, wrapped in the morning dew!
Welcome Mahdi (AS)
O Mahdi! Like the fragrance of flowers, you are hidden from eyes, Come back, in anticipation, broken is the back of times!
-------Waiting in sync with his heartbeat
In the highly respected and authentic Shia book Basa’er-od-Darajat, there is a beautiful hadith from Imam Ali (AS).
Visiting a Muslim believer in his sickbed, the first infallible imam said compassionately:
“… We become happy from your happiness, and turn sad due to your sadness; we feel ill from your illness, and pray for you, and when you pray, we say Amen!”
The man was astonished by the imam’s words; he found them hard to believe. “How could the imam say ‘Amen’ to his prayers, while he was far away from the imam?!” he thought, not being aware of the exalted position Almighty God bestowed on our infallible imams.
Imam Ali (AS) kindly added:
“Near or far, wherever you are, the distance makes no difference to us.”
In every breath we take, And every move we make, The Most Compassionate Wise, Is at our side, so nice!
Our imams’ knowledge and power, Are bestowed by God, my dear!
Do we really comprehend the extent of this wonderful relationship?
The imam of our time is Mahdi (AS). How much do we know about him? Do we see?
Imagine that…
Whenever we’re sad, He also feels sad!
At the time of troubles, When we have problems, We are there, In his care!
We may think that our beloved imam has forgotten us and does not know what we are going through! And sometimes in our childish minds, we may even think that he does not care. But he cares more than anyone else.
In a fatherly way, he watches us and is with us on the road to truth, honesty, light, and humanity.
He helps us reach God and takes us to blissful eternity.
Sometimes it is hard to learn, but working hard to get the best results is valuable.
To achieve short-term worldly happiness, we are quite willing to work hard and make sacrifices. Why not strive for eternal happiness?!
In moments of our lives, we always wish for a true companion to talk to, someone to rely on, a kind person to share our happiness with, a benevolent friend, a shoulder to cry on… and we believe that if we had such a person, we would never feel lonely.
O Allah! All praise be to You, we do have such a person. Today, with every beat of our hearts, Imam Mahdi (AS) is with us and is waiting for us to take his warm hands and accept his benevolent compassion.
On his glorious birth anniversary, let our hearts learn to beat with the melody of his compassionate and benevolent heartbeat..
