The secret behind the prophecies
of the Holy Prophet and Imam Ali (P.B.U.T.)
These prophecies are a way of interconnecting the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h.) with the future events and also a source of awareness with the true beliefs and viewpoints of his holiness.
Even though the ones who were not present at the time of the Prophet, and did not gain the opportunity to listen to his sayings, at that time and now, with the study of the narrations that are quoted from him, they can analyse and assess these incidents from the Prophet’s viewpoint and understand the saying of his holiness regarding the incidents that took place after his time.
The main motive behind the prophecies of the Holy Progeny (a.s.) and their sayings regarding the future, was to make us aware of the incidents that will occur in our era and for us to assess them carefully and be cautious against them.
Although, the Holy Progeny, in the past times, has given statements about the upcoming events addressing the individuals present in their gatherings, but their main motive was to address them along with all those who will face the upcoming events in the future. Moreover, it was necessary for all those living in the forthcoming eras to attain awareness about the history of their predecessors, and to know the viewpoints of the Holy Prophet and all the other religious leaders regarding that particular event.
Therefore, all those times and ages regarding which the Holy Progeny has predicted and prophesied, it is necessary for the people of that time and also the ones who will live after them, to attain its awareness so that they don’t get misguided ignorantly or be deceived by misleading teachings. One of the secrets behind these prophecies, as mentioned by the Holy Progeny (a.s.), is that the ones who will live in the future should be aware of the incidents that will occur in their era and should be cautious of the deceptions and plots that will be designed against them so that they do not enter the valleys of darkness.
One of the most important points that should be carefully assessed is that the main factor behind the restriction of propagating the Hadith is to prohibit the propagation of the Holy Prophet’s prophecies. As an effect of the Prophet’s prophecies, the people attained awareness of the upcoming conditions and conspiracies that will entangle them and was doubtlessly an effective way to warn them of the future events.
This fact is known to all those who are aware of the Prophet’s prophecies and for the common awareness, it is necessary to pay attention towards the prophetic prophecy regarding Ammar bin Yasir, the commander of Imam Ali (a.s.).
We will discuss in the coming chapters about how the prophecy of the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h.) initiated a conflict within the troops of Syria and why did a group of their soldiers joined the army of Imam Ali (a.s.). The effect of the Prophet’s prophecy was so intense that it created a rift between Mu’awiyah and Amr bin Al Aas, and it was about to cause the Syrian troop face a crushing defeat.
