THE PLACES SPECIFIC TO IMAM MAHDI (A.S.)
For the additional knowledge of our respected readers, we would like to analyze some of those places that are specifically for his holiness (a.s.).
Late Mohaddis e Noori says: It is not hidden on anyone that some of the places that are specifically for the Imam of our time (a.s.), and are famous as the ‘Places of Imam (a.s.)’, are namely: Wadi us Salaam (Najaf e Ashraf), Sahla mosque, Hilla mosque, Jamkaran mosque towards the outskirts of Qom, etc.
It is likely that some of those who have met the Holy Imam (a.s.), met him in these places, or the miracles of his holiness (a.s.) became evident here. Therefore, they are considered as one of the most majestic and honorable places, and ones where we can gain attachment with his holiness. Angels descend from the heavens on these places, the Satan rarely manages to tread here and these are the modes and means which result in the immediate acceptance of supplications and prayers.
It has arrived in some traditions that Almighty Allah loves to be worshipped in these places, such as mosques, shrines of the holy Imams (a.s.), graves of their sons and the graves of the noble and pious servants which are situated in different cities.
This is a secret blessing of Allah for all His slaves who suffer from misguidance, helplessness, hopelessness, illness, liabilities, oppressions, fear and fright, need and necessity, and the likes of them. Those slaves who become a victim of sadness and difficulties, and their hearts have fallen apart, they appear to be distressed and their faculties have become disabled. Such people can take refuge in the places mentioned above, weep and moan, seek the attainment of Allah with the help of the position of those towards whom these places are associated, then request Him for the treatment of their illnesses and the cure of their diseases, as well as the elimination of the evil committed by the evil men along with all the other sufferings.
The prayers of the following people are accepted in most cases: a sick person who visits in the state of sickness returns after being cured, an oppressed returns from these places after his right is given back to him, someone who visits these places with tensions and uneasiness returns in a state where his heart is tranquil and he has attained peace of mind.
Certainly, it is natural that whoever expresses more honor and respect towards these places, he will acquire extra benefit from them.
It is possible that all these places might be the Houses of Allah regarding which it has been commanded that those houses should be exalted and glorified and that His Allah’s name may be remembered in them; and whoever glorifies Him in these houses in the mornings and the evenings, is praised.
And it is not suitable for this discussion to be analyzed with further detail and explanation under this topic[1].
