[shia_strength] To pray for seeing the Imam (a.s.) with forgiveness and faith. Mikyalul Makarim

 




To pray for seeing the Imam (a.s.) with forgiveness and
faith

We must pray to the Almighty that He grant us the
distinction of seeing Imam (a.s.) with forgiveness and faith.
Two points are worth noting in this regard. One is that
having a desire of seeing Imam (a.s.) is a mustahab
(recommended) act. Secondly a prayer for seeing him with
faith and forgiveness.
The proof for the first point lies in the supplications of
Ghaibat taught by the Holy Imams (a.s.). For example in
Dua Ahad, quoted from Imam Sadiq (a.s.).
Translation: O Allah! Let me see his brilliant
countenance and praiseworthy face.
Similarly in Dua-e-Amri it is mentioned,
Translation: "O Allah! I beseech You make me see
Your Wali in the condition when his command is running."
(He is in power).
Secondly, supporting this point is the tradition of
Ahmad bin Ibrahim quoted in the Bab-ul-Mazar of Beharul
Anwaar:
The narrator says that he told Abu Ja'far Muhammad
ibne Uthman regarding his desire to see Imam (a.s.). "He
asked me if I was seriously desirous of it and I replied in the
affirmative. He said, 'May Allah reward you for your
desire. May he easily show you the blessed face of Hazrat
(a.s.) while you are eligible for salvation. O Abu Abdillah.
Do not insist on seeing him because this is a period of
occultation. Do not persist for seeking his company
because it a very serious divine affair and in such
circumstances it is better to submit to Allah's will. But you
must address him by reciting his Ziarats."
(Beharul Anwaar Vol. 102 Pg. 97)
