🔹 Qur’an 4:77 — Obedience, Jihad & Mahdavi Hope

🌙 The Noble Verse

أَ لَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ قِيلَ لَهُمْ كُفُّوا أَيْدِيَكُمْ وَ أَقِيمُوا الصَّلاةَ وَ آتُوا الزَّكاةَ فَلَمَّا كُتِبَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقِتَالُ إِذَا فَرِيقٌ مِنْهُمْ يَخْشَوْنَ النَّاسَ كَخَشْيَةِ اللَّهِ أَوْ أَشَدَّ خَشْيَةً...
“Have you not seen those to whom it was said: ‘Restrain your hands, establish prayer, and give zakat’? But when fighting was ordained for them, a group of them feared people as they fear Allah, or even more. They said, ‘Our Lord, why have You decreed fighting for us? If only You had postponed [it] for us for a short time!’ Say, ‘The enjoyment of this world is little, and the Hereafter is better for whoever fears Allah, and you will not be wronged [even as much as] a thread [inside a date seed].’” (Qur’an 4:77)

✍️ Wilayah Narrations

✅ Imam al-Baqir (a) 💬 “By Allah! What Imam Hasan (a) did (making peace with Mu‘awiya) was better than anything the sun shines upon. Allah in this verse commanded obedience to the Imam — but some demanded war. Later, when it came time for Imam Husayn (a), jihad was made obligatory, yet some still said, ‘Why now? If only it could wait until the coming of the Qa’im (aj).’” 📚 Tafsir Ahl al-Bayt vol. 3 | Al-Kafi vol. 8 | Bihar al-Anwar vol. 44

✅ Imam al-Sadiq (a) 💬 “This verse was revealed about Imam Hasan (a), who was commanded to refrain from war; but it was about Husayn (a) that fighting was decreed, and all were obliged to rise with him.” 📚 Bihar vol. 44 | Al-‘Ayyashi

✅ Imam al-Sadiq (a) 💬 “The ‘near term’ (ajal qarib) in this verse refers to the coming of the Qa’im (aj) — when his arrival brings certain victory and support.” 📚 Bihar vol. 44 | Al-‘Ayyashi

🌟 Wilayah Perspective

🔹 This verse shows the core of true Shi‘a obedience: accepting peace under Hasan ibn ‘Ali (a) and uprising with Husayn ibn ‘Ali (a).
🔹 The Imam’s command defines when to act or refrain — not personal desire for peace or war.

✨ Mahdavi Perspective

🔸 Deep within the verse flows the believers’ hope for the ajal qarib — the imminent appearance of the Qa’im (aj):
▫️ Some wished to delay sacrifice and struggle until the final uprising, knowing true deliverance lies at his side.
▫️ The stand of Imam Husayn (a) paved the path for the global rise of the Qa’im (aj).

✅ Wilayah & Mahdavi Conclusion

✔️ Obedience to the Imam, in any era, secures salvation and honor — whether in Hasan’s peace, Husayn’s Ashura, or awaiting the Qa’im (aj).
✔️ The near term (ajal qarib) is the Shi‘a’s hopeful gaze toward the day the Master rises to establish divine justice.
