tanzeel (i.e. words) Now so far as the ascertainment of meaning is concerned this article has been
reproduced from far Qaleet Mehdi(A.S) Mavood shall bring kitab Jawaharu (tasdeequei)
“O God! Bestow the world a sight about Alif Laam Meem- May my bridegroom heart turn into a
Jag Jagat Mantar” (by Qadeer R.A.)
In Maqassidul Islam, vol. sixth page 59 it appears that a narration has been mentioned in Kaleeni page:
73 that Abu Abdullah (A.S.) has said that Allah the almighty had revealed a book on the revered prophet,
peace be upon him, before his death saying it is a will on your behalf for towards a man of integrity, he
(PBUH) asked Gabreel (A.S.) who those people of integrity were? He replied Ali (R.A.) and his offshoots.
That book bore golden seals. The revered prophet peace be upon him handed over that book to Ali (R.A.)
saying:”break up one seal and see it to practically complying with whatever is written therein. Therefore he
acted accordingly. Then he passed that book to Imam Hussain (R.A.). He also saw inside after breaking
open the seal and acted accordingly as per the writing. Likewise that book passed through Imam Husain
(R.A.) to his son Ali (R.A.) and later on to Mohammed Bin Ali (R.A.), then to Imam Jaffer Sadique and
Moosa Kaazim. And all of them acted according to what had been writtenin the said book. And in future too
the book shall reach generation after generations to Mehdi Alaihis Salaam. A short summary is over.
This tradition goes in establishing the fact that Imamat is not preconditioned to an empire. Otherwise all
of the eminent Imams would positively have resorted to crusade in ensuring the empire as an empire i.e. a
state not essential phenomenon for the mission of prophethood. That is why there were thousands of
prophets who did command prophethood yet had no state. In short, this tradition makes it obvious that the
present Imamat is relevant to the field of peers and their disciples only which is practices by the honourable
mystics occupying “Zaaviyas.” From: Maqasedul Islam vol.6 page 171 a remarks has been quoted about
the present will in the words of Abi Abdullah (A.S.).”
It means it contained an order to stay firm with the divinely right and to speak out the truth no matter at
times of fear or peace and not to be afraid of anyone but Allah the almighty. So he did accordingly. It is to
be noted that although there was a clear order about speaking out the right thing fearlessly and that was
implemented too, yet no claim of a state was made. And had he over made such a claim he would surely
got success through Allah’s help because, as per the tradition that piece of will had been sent by Allah the
almighty through the medium of Gabriel (A.S.). This shows that he was under no order of going for an
apparent state. It is maintained in Maqasadul Islam vol.10 page: 54. “Allah’s hand is above his hand” (Al
Quran). Therefore, it was divinely said:”take the hand of the prophet, peace be upon him, to be, as mind
and regard baet with him as my baet.” “Verily those who are affecting baet with you are simply, for surely
affecting baet of Allah” (Al Quran) i.e.” O prophet the people are seemingly doing shake on your hand- that
is not your hand and that is our hand. “Because, a baet and decision as to its valuation has already been
taken. Now, should anyone violate that baet and makes free in roads to his life and property as per his own
wishes, forgetting the fact that they have been pledged with us, than the damage shall be his own –and we
shall also not be repaying its price i.e. the heaven.”
As it is said:”One who shall violate (the points of promise) is simply causing damage to his own self.” And
one who shall fulfill the promise which was made, by giving hand into the hand and whose sale had already
been completed, then we shall bestow him the great reward. As it has been said by Allah the
almighty:”One who fulfills the promise that had been made to Allah, hence, he shall be bestowed the great
