ENORMOUS OF BLESSING AND WEALTH WORLDWIDE

Now we shall take a look at enormous of blessing and wealth during that time which there will be no time like it.

يقول رسول الله صلی الله علیه وآله : «تنعّم أمّتي في زمن المهدي نعمة لم ينعموا مثلها قطّ، ترسل السماء عليهم مدراراً، ولا تدع الأرض شيئاً من النبات إلا أخرجته، والمال كدوس، يقوم الرجل يقول: يا مهدي؛ أعطني، فيقول: خذ». 

The holy Prophet (Peace be upon him and his family) in this respect said:  "My nation will be blessed during the time of Imam al-Mahdi which none is blessed before it, the heaven will be sending its rain and the earth will not leave any seed until it brings it out; there will be abundant wealth. A man will stand up saying: give or bestowed upon me and he will be commanded to take"[1]

It is cleared that that day all sects worldwide will be delivered from going astray and Islamic religion will be universal and the entire people that time will be regarded as the nation of the holy Prophet (Peace be upon him and his family). In this respect the holy Prophet has referred to the people of that time as my nation.

The nations of the holy Prophet (Peace be upon him and his family) which will comprise the entire people during the auspicious day possessed two specialties which are unprecedented.

These two specialties which are enjoyed by everyone are the reason for opening the heavenly doors meanwhile descending and ascending of divine blessing from heaven and earth respectively shall reach the entire creatures' worldwide.

The two specialties are:

1- Faith

2- Piety.

These two tremendous and spiritual attributes that day are not specialized to special group of people rather everyone shall enjoy it because these attributes are universal while the wrath of Almighty Allah will be taken away which will be the reason for the spread of divine blessings, thus in reality that day will be wonderful and astonishing.

For establishing this issue we bring Qur'an and traditions of the infallible Imam to that effect.

يقول الإمام الصادق علیه السلام : «ولينزلنّ البركة من السماء إلى الأرض حتى أن الشجرة لتقصف بما يريد الله فيها من الثمرة، ولتأكلنّ ثمرة الشتاء في الصيف وثمرة الصيف في الشتاء، وذلك قوله تعالى : {وَلَوْ أَنَّ أَهْلَ الْقُرَى آمَنُوا وَاتَّقَوْا لَفَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ بَرَكاتٍ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَلَكنْ كذَّبُوا فَأَخَذْنَاهُمْ بِمَا كانُوا يَكسِبُونَ}».

Imam Sadiq (Peace be upon him) said: "Surely blessing will be descending from the heaven to the earth until tree will be falling fruits with Allah's wishes, surely you will be eating winter's fruit in the summer and the summer fruit during the winter, that is the saying of the most High {If the people of the towns had been faithful and God wary, we would have opened to them blessings from the heaven and the earth, But they denied; so we seize them because of what they use to earn}[2]/[3]

There is an attractive point in this verse and narration that need to be explain, some of them are as follows:

1- The "fa" in the verse {so we seize them because of what they use to earn} prove that denying the divine realities, not accepting the Prophet's command (Peace be upon him and his family) and rejecting it, is the cause for holding people responsible for their action, it put an end to peoples blessing from the heaven and the earth and also brought bad luck and wretchedness to them.

In this respect we must perceive that the fountain head of the entire crimes and assassinations is insufficiency and chaotic due to turning back of the peoples from recommendation of the holy Prophet of Allah (Peace be upon him and his family) meanwhile not having faith also result to not having piety.

If people from the beginning never denied the Prophets of Allah and they believe in them; their piety will construct their career and no matter how they could have face problem and disaster.
