امام صادق علیه السلام : اگر من زمان او (حضرت مهدی علیه السلام ) را درک کنم ، در تمام زندگی و حیاتم به او خدمت می کنم.
PEOPLE'S DUTY

PEOPLE'S DUTY

The person who is triumphant during the period of reappearance of the holy Imam is he who has executed his duties during the gloomy period of occultation.

We will hereby expound some of those duties:

1- People's duty during the period of occultation is to be acquainted with the orders and demands of the great remainder of Allah's proof (May our souls be sacrifice for him) and it should be implemented. Friendship with the holy Imam (May our souls be sacrifice for him) and anticipating for his reappearance and understanding it will be completed if people during the period of occultation are obedient and follow the leader of the time (May Almighty Allah hasten his relief).

2- We should befriend with the friends and fans of the holy leader of the time (May our souls be sacrifice for him).

3- Friendship with the friends of Imam is to know them because if one doesn't know how the friends of Imam are, he will not be able to love and make friendship with them.

4- We must despise and avoid the enemies of the holy leader of the time (May Almighty Allah hasten his relief).

5- Avoidance and despise from the enemies of the holy leader of the time depends on knowing them, then we must know how they are in order to disgust from them.

In addition to the listed duties, an awaiter of the holy Imam has the responsibility of complete obedience to him and must follow the sayings of that great man if he reaches the reappearance period of the holy Imam.

Imam al-Sadiq (Peace be upon him) has explained this reality to Abu Baseer when he said:

«يا أبابصير؛ طوبى لمحبي قائمنا، المنتظرين لظهوره في غيبته والمطيعين لـه في ظهوره، أوليائه أولياء الله لا خوف عليهم ولا هم يحزنون».

"O' the father of Baseer, glad tiding to the lovers of our riser (al-Qa'im) the waiters of his reappearance from his occultation and his followers during the period of his honourable reappearance, his friends are Allah's friends; there is no fear or grief upon them"[1]

Base on this narration, the friends of Almighty Allah are the friends of the holy Imam (May our souls be sacrifice for him), they are also the people whom in addition to friendship and awaiting the honourable Imam has followed and be obedient to him; if they reach his reappearance they will not be among the separated soldiers from him likewise they will not be among those who will combine with the enemies of Imam at the beginning of his reappearance.

In reality this type of people are not waiting for the reappearance of Imam rather they are waiting for the time when they will attain their position; at the time when their aims and objectives has become like drawing on the water, they will set the Imam aside (May Almighty Allah hasten his relief) hence there is no information of possessing any rank and post.
