<strong>Al</strong> <strong>Qaul</strong> <strong>Al</strong> <strong>Mahmood</strong><br />

Hzt Syed <strong>Al</strong>i Yadullahi Makki Badey Miyan RH<br />

These three conditions are not needed to be fulfilled even by prophets. How could Imam Mahdi AS<br />

be expected to fulfill them<br />

At this stage I (the author Syed <strong>Al</strong>i) have to say that there are two kinds of unknown things<br />

(mughibat): (1) those which some divines know and the common people do not, and (2) those which<br />

none other than <strong>Al</strong>lah knows.<br />

The first kind of the knowledge of the unknown is found among Prophets, and there is no change in<br />

its nature whether it is revealed directly or through the medium of an angel by <strong>Al</strong>lah to the person<br />

concerned. The second is not found among the prophets expect by revelation through angels (wahi). In<br />

fact, this is the real knowledge of the unknown. <strong>Al</strong>lah alone has that knowledge. <strong>Al</strong>lah says: “None other<br />

than <strong>Al</strong>lah knows.”<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah also says: “Verily the knowledge of the Hour is with <strong>Al</strong>lah (alone). It is He Who sends rain and<br />

He Who knows that is in the wombs. Nor does anyone know what it is that he will earn on the morrow;<br />

nor does anyone know in what land he is to die. Verily with <strong>Al</strong>lah is full knowledge and He is acquainted<br />

(with all things). (31:34).<br />

This Quranic Verse explains that all things mentioned earlier are in the knowledge of <strong>Al</strong>lah and<br />

none else knows them.<br />

This was the reason why Prophet Muhammad SAS did not reveal the time of the Doomsday<br />

(Qiyamat) when Gibriel asked him about it. This has been stated in the Hadith.<br />

However, it is not difficult for <strong>Al</strong>lah to reveal the knowledge of the unknown to any prophet. <strong>Al</strong>lah<br />

says”….. But He chooses of his epistles (for the purpose) who He pleases…” (3: 179).<br />

In short, to acquire the knowledge of the known is not within the power of human beings; it is<br />

beyond them. However, their being known to the Caliphs of <strong>Al</strong>lah is not conditional.<br />

Now about miracles. A cause is inevitable for a miracle; without a cause a miracle never works. The<br />

cause for a miracle is possible, though not necessary.<br />

And finally, the coming into view of angels is impossible without the fiat of <strong>Al</strong>lah. A human being<br />

has no power to see angels.<br />

Besides, revelation without the medium of angels is possible as is inspiration and instinct not<br />

amounting to sight.<br />

Hence, the conditions which ulema (scholars) have mentioned are unreasonable. Their presence in<br />

Imam Mahdi AS is not necessary. However, Imam Mahdi AS possessed them and many others. The most<br />

important among them is Imam Mahdi’s AS saying that he was taught by <strong>Al</strong>lah without the medium of an<br />

angel. This attribute is predominant over all other attributes.<br />

THE KING YEILDS<br />

When King Husain Mirza’s delegation returned and told him that its members were impressed by<br />

Imam Mahdi AS and had made fealty to him (the Imam AS ), the king followed suit. The king was well versed<br />

in the scriptures, biographies and missions of earlier prophets. At the time he was afflicted with a deadly<br />

disease. He was weak and anemic. Consequently, he wrote a letter to Imam Mahdi AS and sent it through<br />

his emissaries.<br />
