THE ENORMOUS OF

CHEERFULLNESS AND HAPPINESS IN THE WORLD

The holy Prophet concerning that regenerative day which the world will enormously full of cheerfulness and happiness said:

فيقول: «يرضى عنه ساكن السماء وساكن الأرض، ولا تدع السماء من قطرها شيئاً إلا صبّته، ولا الأرض من نباتها شيئاً إلا أخرجته، حتّى تتمنّى الأحياء الأموات».

"The inhabitant of the heaven and the earth will be pleased with him, the heaven will not leave any drop of water until it rains it and the earths will not leave any of its plants until it brings it out; the living ones wish the dead to be alive in order to witness the Just government"[1]

Base on this, gladness and happiness is not only meant for the people of the land but even the inhabitant of the heaven will also be pleased with the honourable Imam, this in itself is a prove that the government of the honourable Imam will be completely universal to the extent that divine justly government will please and attract the entire inhabitant of the heaven and the earth.

What is more attractive in another narration is that the holy Prophet (Peace be upon him and his family) didn't see the specification of the cheerfulness and happiness during the time of reappearance of the holy Imam to only humanbeing rather he said: even the animals during that time will also be engulfed with the cheerfulness and the happiness.

 يقول رسول الله صلی الله علیه وآله : «هو رجل من ولد الحسين علیه السلام كأنّه من رجال شنسوه، عليه عباءتان قطوانيّتان إسمه إسمي، فعند ذلك تفرح الطيور في أوكارها، والحيتان في بحارها، وتمدّ الأنهار، وتفيض العيون، وتنبت الأرض ضعف أكلها، ثم يسير مقدمته جبرئيل، وساقته اسرافيل، فيملأ الأرض عدلاً وقسطاً كما ملئت جوراً وظلماً».

The Messenger of Allah said: "He is a man from the offspring of Imam al-Husayn (Peace be upon him) as if he is from the men of shansuwah, he is having two cloak from wool, his name will be same as mine, by then the birds will be joyful in its nest and the whale in its sea, the rivers will be prolong and spring out water, the earth will be producing more than what is need to be eaten. Angel Jibril will be at the forefront of his army, Israfil will be feeding them, then he will fill the earth with justice and equity as it was filled with inequity and oppression".[2]

Verily the soldiers which Jibril and Israfil (the holder of Allah's holy Throne) are in their midst are fully powerful and possess ability but it is not a special rescue of heap of people on earth rather it is means of spread of cheerfulness to other creatures. People will take their right from the usurpers and all the debt of the debtors will be paid even though it is from mountain to chaff.

«يخاطب المفضّل الإمام الصادق علیه السلام قائلاً : يا مولاي؛ من مات من شيعتكم وعليه دين لإخوانه ولأضداده كيف يكون؟

قال الإمام علیه السلام: أوّل ما يبتدئ المهدي علیه السلام أن ينادي في جميع العالم: ألا من له عند أحد من شيعتنا دين فليذكره، حتّى يردّ الثومة والخردلة فضلاً عن القناطير المقنطرة من الذهب والفضة والأملاك فيوفيه إيّاه».

Mufadal said to Imam al-Sadiq (Peace be upon him): "O' my master; whoever died among your follower and he is having debt of his muslim brother upon him and to others that differ from him in opinion, what will happen?

Imam Sadiq (Peace be upon him) said: The first call of Imam al-Mahdi (Peace be upon him) is to make an announcement to the whole world that whoever is owned by my follower should announce it so that it is paid to its owner even if it is garlic and mustard talk much of other property like gold and silver, so that it is given back to its owner.[3]
