In these wonderful and celestial days which we are breathing in the heavenly moments of Imam Red(z)a's (PBUH) birth anniversary, we wish to narrate another unforgettable statement from that very kind representative of Allah in which he (PBUH) has reassured the Glad Tidings regarding Imam Mahdi (PBUH), and has expressed one of his (May Allah hasten his Emergence) special characteristics necessary to withstand the staunch oppressors of the world, i.e. his (PBUH) enormous and miraculous physical strength. One day when Imam Reda (PBUH) was in his old age, some one asked him whether he was the "Saaheb-Ol-Amr" (lord of Allah's Commands) -a title which is mostly used for Imam Mahdi (PBUH), he (PBUH) who shall spread Allah's Commands on earth, but all Imams (PBUT) were also the "lord of Allah's Commands" in their times-; Imam Reda (PBUH) responded:


Yes I am "Saaheb-Ol-Amr", but I am not he who shall fill the earth with justice and equity, as being fraught with injustice and inequity; and how can I be him, while you are observing weakness in my body? Qaa'em is he who shall Rise at old age, while appearing as a young man, being very powerful, to the point that if he'll stretch his hand to the greatest tree on earth, he shall uproot it, and if he'll shout in the mountains, the rocks will fall; the Cane of Moosa and the Ring of Solaymaan will be with him. He shall be the forth, from my offspring. Allah shall hide him in His concealment, then He will divulge him, and through him, Allah shall fill the earth with justice and equity, as fraught with injustice and inequity.


(Kamaal-O-Ddeen, vol. 2, ch. 35; …)


Yes Mahdi (PBUH) who is kinder than the kindest father to believers and repenters, shall stand firmly and strongly against, and will eliminate all the staunch oppressors who will insist on violating Allah-Granted human rights; after all he is the son of the same Hadrat Ali (PBUH) who in the battle of Khaybar lifted the gateway of the castle with one hand, a gateway which for its moving, forty strong men were needed … .


SURELY ALLAH CAN DO ANY THING HE WISHES THROUGH ANY ONE HE DESIRES!


O' THE ONE AND ONLY ALLAH! HASTEN HIS APPEARANCE, AND FACILITATE HIS EMERGENCE …
