All humans have been created based upon the Divine nature and this nature and Fetrat can never be changed or destroyed. Fetrat in human soul, may be described as a mirror which reflects the light of God; but if dust, fog and… cover the mirror, the mirror will not be able to reflect clearly, even though it is still there.

Based on Qur’an, Surah Aaraaf, verse 172, all of us -before our creation on this earth- in another world, called the world of Dhar(while we were certain particles as described in narratives), stood before Allah and Allah introduced Himself to us; He asked all of us: Am I not Your Lord? And we all responded: Yes. The detailed story of this confession is absolutely delightful; Godwilling, we shall narrate it in another writing.

Any one who claims that he/she loves God -no matter what religion he/she follows- he/she is not making an empty claim; the creation of all humans have been based upon the love of the only Lord, Allah. But the clearer the mirror of Fetrat, the closer to the reality of the Truth, his/her claim may be. On the one hand, by following the deviated paths of distorted religions, thee mirror of human Fetrat is being covered with the dusts of untruth and distortions; on the other hand, the dark dusts of arrogance, jealousy, obstinacy, sins and alike, are hiding the Divinely bestowed mirror of Fetrat under their shadow.

In a magnificent and everlasting statement -by Allah’s command- the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HP) in Qur’an addresses the entire humankind:

If you love Allah, then follow me, so that Allah loves you… .

(Qur’an, Surah Aale-Emraan, verse 31)

When the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HP) came, the followers of the previous Divine Prophets (PBUT), using the writings that they had access to, recognized the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HP) -as the Promised Prophet- as clear as they knew their own sons (Qur’an, Surah Baqarah, verse 146,…); For whatever reason (arrogance& …), they refused to embrace Islam. Any one who purely and sincerely loves Allah, surely the obedience of the All-loving andd All-knowing Allah shall be the result of that true love. If human chooses to return to his soul and to the Covenant that he made with his Lord in the world of Dhar, then the tears of repentance can easily wash away the dark dusts on the mirrors of Fetrat and that shall be when the true love of Allah will become manifest in hearts.

If we truly love Allah and if we wish that Allah may love us too, the only way is through the obedience of His last chosen Prophet -which iss the obedience of all previous Prophets (PBUT)- and after the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HP), through the obedience of the possessors of Divine Authority and command (Olol-Amr):

O’ you who Believe! Obey Allah and obey the Prophet and the Olol-Amr amongst you… .

(Qur’an, Surah Nessa’, verse 59)

Repeatedly, the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HP) in his life time introduced -by names and particulars- the Olol-Amr after him, as thee 12 infallible Imams of his progeny, from Qoraish. As one example, in the books Sahih Bokhari and Sahih Moslem -the two most respected books of the Sunni- it has been narrated that the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HP) has said that this religion would remain firm until Qiaamat (the Judgement Day), as long as there would be the 12 Successors -all from Qoraish- over the people; and yet the Sunni!!!

O’ our beloved Mahdi! You are the last of that chosen Olol-Amr; we know that, loving and obeying you -as the most beautiful and perfect creation of Allah on earth today- is loving and obeying Allah -as the one and only Creator Who has created you so beautifully and perfectly and commanded us to love and obey you and your fathers-; we know that, this is the True Love… .
