Ayatollah Bahjat (may his soul rest in peace) used to say:
"In this world, humans ultimately achieve only ten percent of their desires. It's rare to find someone whose life aligns perfectly with their wishes. Every pleasure in this transient life comes with a thousand bitternesses and stings. If one accepts and understands the world in this manner, they'll be less disturbed by the unpleasantness and adversities of spouse, neighbor, and others. Because from this world, more than being a home of calamities, one should not expect more."

🔷 Divine Proofs Rejected: A Qur’anic and Mahdist Perspective on Surah Āl ʿImrān, Verse 183
Qur’anic Verse (3:183):
“Those who said: ‘Allah has taken a covenant from us not to believe in any messenger unless he brings us an offering consumed by fire from heaven.’ Say: ‘Messengers came to you before me with clear proofs and even with what you requested; so why did you kill them, if you are truthful?’”
(Āl ʿImrān, 3:183)
🔸 Exegetical Reflection:
This verse exposes a false claim made by certain Jews at the time of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). They demanded a specific sign — a heavenly fire consuming a sacrificial offering — as a precondition for belief. However, Allah rebukes them, stating that previous prophets had indeed presented such miracles, yet they were still rejected and even murdered. The rhetorical question, “Then why did you kill them if you are truthful?” uncovers the hypocrisy of their excuse.
🔹 Narrative Insight (Based on Hadith from Imam al-Ṣādiq [AS]):
1. Consent Equals Complicity in Sin:
Imam al-Ṣādiq (AS) emphasizes that although the Jews of the Prophet’s time did not physically kill previous prophets, their approval of their ancestors’ actions made them morally accountable and thus spiritually guilty.
📚 Sources: Tafsīr Ahl al-Bayt, vol. 2, p. 854; Biḥār al-Anwār, vol. 97, p. 94; al-Kāfī, vol. 2, p. 409
2. Sociotheological Concept of 'Killing':
Imam al-Ṣādiq (AS) further explains that divine judgment regards individuals as guilty of historical crimes if they fail to denounce them, reflecting a continuity of moral responsibility.
📚 Sources: Biḥār al-Anwār, vol. 97, p. 95; al-ʿAyyāshī, vol. 1, p. 209; Wasāʾil al-Shīʿa, vol. 16, p. 141
3. Historical Parallels with Karbala:
This principle is echoed in the tragedy of Karbala. Those who approve of Imam Ḥusayn's killing, even if they lived centuries later, are considered among his murderers. This serves as a model for every era: those who are pleased with injustice are complicit in it.
🔸 Wilāyah and Mahdist Analysis:
1. Acceptance of Divine Authority or Complicity in Rejection?
The verse underscores that the core test is not physical participation in a prophet's time but one's stance toward divine authority (wilāyah). Just as historical Jews were deemed guilty for inward approval of their ancestors' crimes, today, those who adopt a neutral or hostile stance toward the authority of Imam al-Mahdī (AJ) fall into the same category of divine condemnation.
2. The Criterion for True Faith During the Occultation:
Mere verbal belief is insufficient. One must actively align with the representatives of divine guidance. In the time of occultation, true allegiance is measured by one's recognition of Imamate, sincere expectation, and repudiation of the enemies of wilāyah.
3. Reenactment of Bani Israel’s Attitude in the End Times:
During the era of the reappearance, some people will use arbitrary standards and excuses (e.g., asking for specific signs or proofs) to reject Imam al-Mahdī (AJ). Those who aid or remain silent before his adversaries will be spiritually akin to the enemies of past prophets.
📎 Mahdist Summary:
Approving of oppression is equivalent to participating in it.
Salvation lies in adhering to the Wilāyah of Ahl al-Bayt (AS).
In the occultation, neutrality equals betrayal.
Knowing the Imam of the time and disassociating from his enemies defines true allegiance.
