Question 634

Question and answer [link]

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and prayers be upon the one sent as a mercy to the worlds, the Messenger of Allah, Abu al-Qasim Muhammad, and upon his good and purified family. Some time ago, I saw in the world of visions that I was in a place where men wearing black had gathered, along with women wearing hijab in the best manner a Muslim could see. Then a majestic sayyid arrived with his wife, who possessed a dignity and solemnity that drew the observer. The sayyid spoke with us and then said, ‘Look behind you.’ There was a majestic, large, black airplane. The sayyid told us, ‘Board it,’ so we boarded the airplane. It flew, and the sayyid began explaining the airplane’s specifications to us. A short while later, three airplanes approached us, which we passengers knew were Israeli. The sayyid said, ‘Do not fear; Allah willing, they will not hit us.’ The airplanes then fired missiles at us, but they did not hit us. Afterward, the airplanes disappeared and we landed in a place that was like Paradise, with springs, fountains, pastures, and dwellings. A person threw an enormous quantity of fish to me and said, ‘Take them; they are yours.’ I then went to my house, which I recognized, but I do not know how I knocked on the door. The door opened, and then the vision ended. Several unseen occurrences happened to me that made me withdraw from people, distracted in thought and awaiting relief. The latest occurred in Ramadan, specifically in its final days. Something happened that shook my being. I told some believers in Karbala what had happened, and I learned from them that the event had also happened to others. Therefore, after placing my trust in Allah and sending prayers upon the Messenger of Allah and his good and purified Household, I resolved to write to you. Peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you. Can you tell me about the latest event so that my heart may be reassured? Sender: Khaldun al-Baqir - Sweden

Accepted Answer

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, the Imams and the Mahdis, and grant them peace. May Allah grant you success in every good. In this vision, Allah gives you glad tidings of the appearance of the truth and the appearance of the Mahdi from the family of Muhammad. He calls you to the truth. I ask Allah to enable you to join the Call of truth and support the truth. The airplane represents relief, and Allah willing, it will reach the destination despite the attempts of Allah’s enemies to extinguish Allah’s light. But Allah will perfect His light, and He is the Most Merciful of those who show mercy. As for your request for something that compels you to follow the truth, it is not correct, may Allah grant you success. Faith must contain an aspect of the unseen, and Allah has presented you with unseen evidence through the vision. You must take a step toward the truth so that Allah may increase you from His bounty and bestow upon you that by which you are reassured. The domain of the unseen cannot be eliminated at the outset, because then belief would be one hundred percent material confirmation, which is compulsion to believe. This is no different from Pharaoh’s belief when the compelling miracle came, and Allah did not accept his belief. The Exalted said: ‘We brought the Children of Israel across the sea, and Pharaoh and his soldiers pursued them in rebellion and aggression, until, when drowning overtook him, he said, “I believe that there is no god except the One in whom the Children of Israel believe, and I am of the Muslims.” Now? When you disobeyed before and were among the corrupters? Today We will preserve your body so that you may be a sign for those after you, although many people are heedless of Our signs’ (^[91]). You can read the interpretation of these verses in the book The Interpretation of a Verse from Surah Yunus, which is published on the website of the Supporters of Imam al-Mahdi. Perhaps Allah will benefit you through it. May Allah grant you success and direct your steps toward that which pleases Him, Glorious is He. Peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you. Ahmed Alhasan Muharram al-Haram, 1432 AH
