(The Secret of Longevity(Imam Mahdi

Introducing the Criticism: We said that others criticize the belief of Shiites about Mahdi from the past that: If he is the son of Imam Hassan Askari and was born in the year 255 after Hijrah from his mother Narjis and is still alive then he is more than thousand years old now, while:

Neither our daily observations show us people with this old age!

Nor today’s science accepts that!

Nor it has historical example!

Study and Research:

We agree the criticizers in this matter that normal and ordinary ages which we usually see are not more than one-hundred years, and rarely reaches one-hundred and twenty years, and in out time, people who have reached one-hundred and fifty or sixty are considered as exceptions in the world.1

But it is not possible to suffice to these matters for a scientific discussion and research about the matter of the longevity and

imam of the time in the words of imam ali

As the successor of the Prophet (PBUH), Imam Ali informs people of an absent Imam from among his descendents who will make world full of justice and remove injustice.

How beautiful it is to combine the event of Ghadir with the words of Imam Ali on his grandson Mahdi.1. ForgivingHe is so forgiving2. ShelterHe is a strong shelter3. Ideal of the good-doersWhoever comprehends him will find him a glorious light which is an ideal for good-doer 4. Savior of the MankindHe breaks all chains and terminates the exploitation of man by man5. Justice ExpanderImam Ali (PBUH) told his son Hussein (PBUH): “O Hussein! The ninth of your children is a righteous revolutionary. He clarifies the religion and expands justice.”‌6. RejoicingThe crowds on earth and heaven are rejoiced by his coming7. Reward for Steadfast believers“There will be a long absence for our Imam and beware, those steadfast in their religion whose hearts never darkens by his long absence, they will be on my side in the heaven on the Judgment Day”‌8. Praying for Him“O God! Make his occultation and reappearance the end for all sadness and remove all difference and enmity by him”‌.Ghadir means swearing allegiance to Imamate for which Ali (PBUH) is the symbol and Mahdi is the last.There is a basic question here:Are we ready to accept the Imam of the Time or our benefits and lust makes us lose the way?!Are we among those preparing for the green and beautiful future through knowledge and self-education?Translated by: Sadroddin Musawi
