In this chapter Janab Muhaddith Noori (ra) brings 100 incidents of contact with Imam Mahdi (a.t.f.s) in the major occultation. For the sake of brevity we are mentioning just 5 of these incidences in our excerpts. Today we present the last of the five.
*5.Imam Zamana (a.s.) emphasized serving the aged father* [Incident 86 of chapter 7]
It is also narrated from Shaykh Baqir an incident about a very pious man, who was a very dutiful son of his father and he was so caring that he placed a pot of water in the toilet
and till the father completed his ablutions, he waited outside. He was always in the service of his father; however on Wednesday evenings he used to visit Masjid Sahla. But at one time he stopped going there as well. When he was asked about it, he said:
_Once, when I was going there for forty Wednesdays regularly, on the last Wednesday, it so happened that I could not leave during the day. Night fell, although it was a moonlit night. But I was alone. After walking for a time, when only a third of the distance remained I saw an Arab riding in my direction. I thought that I was about to be robbed of my possessions. The rider came near and spoke to me in rural dialect and first thing that he asked me was where I was headed. I said I was going to Masjid Sahla. Then he asked if I have something to eat. I said I have nothing. He told me: Check your pocket. Again I repeated that I had nothing. He chided me at this point and I found that there were some raisins in my pocket I had bought for my child, which I had forgotten to give him. Then he said thrice: I advise you about your aged father. I emphasize you about him and I command you about him. He stated this and disappeared from my sight. I immediately realized that it was Hazrat Hujjat (a.s.), who could not bear that I should remain away from the service of my father even for a single night. That is the reason why I stopped going to Masjid Sahla on Wednesday evenings._
*May Hazrat grant us the pleasure of our parents. And may our service to our parents brings us nearer to our Master Hazrat Mahdi (atfs).*
