Divine Ambassadors & Human Ingratitude: Mahdist Reflections on Surah Abasa (Part II)
سفیران الهی و ناسپاسی انسان | تأملات مهدوی در سوره عبس (بخش دوم)
Surah Abasa – Verses 15 & 17
سوره عبس – آیات ۱۵ و ۱۷
1. Verse 15: بِأَيْدِي سَفَرَةٍ
"In the hands of scribes [messengers]"
Hadith Insight:
Imam al-Sadiq (peace be upon him) said: “The term 'safarah' refers to the Imams (peace be upon them), noble and righteous.”
Sources: Tafsir Ahl al-Bayt, vol. 17, p. 378; Bihar al-Anwar, vol. 24, p. 90; Ta’wil al-Ayat al-Zahirah, p. 739
Mahdist Reflection:
In the narrations, the infallible Imams (peace be upon them) are described as divine ambassadors, bearers and interpreters of revelation. This equally applies to Imam al-Mahdi (may Allah hasten his reappearance) who, in the time of occultation, preserves the true essence of divine guidance and, with his reappearance, will manifest the full reality of the Qur’an to all humankind.

2. Verse 17:
قُتِلَ الْإِنْسانُ ما أَكْفَرَهُ
"Cursed is man! How ungrateful he is!"
Hadith Insight:
According to Imams al-Baqir and al-Sadiq (peace be upon them), this verse refers to the killer of Amir al-Mu’minin (peace be upon him), condemning the act of murdering a sinless divine guide.
Sources: Tafsir Ahl al-Bayt, vol. 17, pp. 378–380; Bihar al-Anwar, vol. 36, p. 174; vol. 53, p. 99; Tafsir al-Qummi, vol. 2, p. 405; Noor al-Thaqalayn
Wilayah & Mahdist Reflection:
The murder of a divinely-appointed leader is the peak of human injustice and ingratitude. Imam al-Mahdi (peace be upon him), as the avenger of all oppressed—including Imam Ali (peace be upon him)—will establish divine justice upon his reappearance. This verse echoes a warning to those who deny divine authority, paving the way for the truth to be unveiled on the Day of Reappearance.
