Keep thinking and you will keep finding count less reasons behind the rights of Maula Imam e Zaman ajs.

AN OTHER WAY TO UNDERSTAND THE SUBJECT To understand the rights of Maula Imam e Zaman ajs we adopt an indirect way. All of us know very well that every momin has got certain rights over other momin brothers. This exercise gives two benefits, • we understand the rights of momin brother • and we estimate the peak of the rights of our Maula ajs. If a momin has these much rights on you, how much should e the quantum of the rights of Ameer ul Moomineen? All these rights are narrated by Maasoomeen salwat ullah e alaehim ajmaeen. 1. If any body leaves his momin brother unbefriended and supportless, he will be considered amongst his murderers. Imagine the gravity of the punishment for a person who leaves his IMAM s.u.a. alone in enemies. 2. If some one accedes with the tyranny of a person, he is just like an associate of the tyrant. If some one oppresses a momin in the east and the other momin living even in the west does not feel grieved upon that, he will be considered as an associate of that oppressor. Can we feel the gravity of oppressions being faced by Maula Imam e Zaman ajs ? let me give you some leads; Maula ajs has been exiled, Maula ajs is in occultation which is considered equivalent to prison by Maula ajs, Majority of the rights of Maula Imam e Zaman ajs have been forfeited, Maula Imam e Zaman ajs has been devoluted from his heirship, Maula Imam e Zaman ajs has been deprived of his assets and ownerships, Maula Imam e Zaman

ajs is highly grieved and people do not even realize that, no body feels lamentation of Maula Imam e Zaman ajs, his holiness has been deprived of his right of global kingship, Maula Imam e Zaman ajs has been deprived of helpers and the supporters of Maula Imam e Zaman ajs are very less. 3. If two momins are traveling together. One of them stays to attend the call of nature and the other one does not wait and keeps walking till he disappears. The one who has kept walking and not waited for his brother is classified as Maloon. (What will be the status of those who are ignorant of their Imam ajs?) 4. It is a hdith of Holy Prophet sAaww, he who spends more on him than his momin brother, is not from us. 5. One should not like a thing for his momin brother that he dislikes for him. 6. Maula Ameer e Kainat sua revealed; • Allah has put the rights of his devotees first to his own rights. Hence a person who fulfills the rights of Allah’s devotees, can also fulfill the rights of Allah jj ( Ghurar ul Hikam) • A person whose rights have been wasted by you, can not be your brother. (Bihar vol 74, page165) 7. Maula Imam Al Sadiq sua revealed; • A person who grandeurs the religion of Allah, also knows the grandeur of the rights of his brother. And a person who disburdens Allah’s religion also undermines the rights of his brother. (Bihar vol 74, page 267) • As any body can not describe our supremacy in a way it deserve and can not fulfill our rights made essential for him in real terms, similarly no body can either understand the supremacy of the rights of his momin brother or fulfill his rights made essential by Allah jj. (Bihar vol 74, p 266; vol 76, p 42) • Worship Allah jj to any level, but no worship is better than the observance of the rights of a momin brother. (Kafi vol 2, p 170) • It is right of a momin brother that he should be preffered over all the personal needs. (Bihar vol 74 p 391; Khisal hadith 25) • The easiest right of one momin over the other is that you like for him the same as you like for yourself and dislike the same for him as you dislike for yourself. (Kafi vol 2, p 169) 8. Maula Imam Al Askari sua revealed; • He is highly respected by Almighty, who recognizes the rights of his brothers the most and delivers them to perfection. (Bihar vol 75 p117) The above-mentioned eight points are just a few of the 1000s of holy sayings regarding the rights of a momin. We can easily asses the importance of the rights of Imam sua from it when we visualize and realize “ How more important is Imam sua than a momin in the eyes of Allah”. How great maloon and sinner will be a person who deprives Imam sua from his divine rights.
