In this chapter author has brought forward certain rituals and supplications which if performed with piety can lead to the honor of meeting with Imam e Zamana (a.t.f.s). This meeting can be while the person is asleep or awake. It is also posssible that he may or may not recognise Imam (a.s.).
In fact traditions have also mentioned some rituals for meeting the other Imams(as) like Ameerul Momeneen(as) and the Holy Prophet (sawa) in dreams.
However just performance of these actions without correct belief will not be useful.
Imam Mohammed Baqir (a.s.) while explaining about persons who would do a lot of rituals but without perfect belief says :
_"Such people are like that group of Bani Israel wherein whoever passed forty nights in worship and then prayed would get whatever he prayed for. But once when one of them did so his prayer remained unanswered. So, he came to H. Isa (a.s.) and complained about it and requested him to pray for him. H. Isa (a.s.) made ablution offered two rakats of prayers and prayed to Allah._
_Consequently, Allah revealed to him:_
_‘O Isa, that man approached Me, but from an incorrect way (path), which is other than the one I had shown.’ And that man was doubtful about (H. Isa’s) Prophethood. ‘So, I will not hear his request even if he goes on praying until his neck is dislocated and his fingers have dropped.’_
_Hearing this H Isa (a.s.) looked toward that person and asked, ‘Do you harbor any doubt about my Messengership?’ He replied, ‘Yes, O Spirit of Allah, it is so. Kindly pray to Allah for a change in my condition for the better.’ H Isa (a.s.) then prayed for him. Allah accepted his repentance and he too, like his family members, became a believer.”_
Author then quotes numerous traditions from various sources highlighting the importance of the number 40 in ritualistic actions.
This was the twelfth and the last chapter of this book. Janab Muhadith Noori (ar)
completed this book on 14th Zilqad 1302 A.H at Samarrah.
_May the Almighty raise the status of this eminent author and give us the good fortune to likewise serve our Imam in whatever limited way we can._
*Inshallah very soon we will begin a new series of summarising another book written about our beloved Imam Mahdi (atfs)*
