🔴 Ayatollah Haeri Shirazi (ra) responded to a group of Western journalists regarding the future of the Islamic Revolution:
💠 "Except for the unworthy, no one will remain under your tent and flag. We will extract all the pure ones of the world from your grasp. We divide the world with you. We will take the pure ones of the world from you, and you will take our unworthy. Our unworthy for you, and the pure ones of the world for us."
💠 If there is purity deep in Europe and America, or even within Israel, eventually it will depart from your ranks and join us. And if there is impurity within our homes, eventually it will depart from us and join you. This is our agreement with you.

🏴 Imam Baqir (AS) in a narration categorized the Shia into three groups:
"Our Shia are of three kinds:
A group that exploits people in our name.
A group that is like glass (easily broken and quick to reveal secrets).
A group that is like pure gold. The more they are tested by fire, the better they become (the more they endure hardships and challenges for their faith, the stronger and more resilient they become)."

Explanation of Juz 28 of the Holy Qur'an from a Mahdavi Perspective
In this article, some verses from Juz 28 of the Holy Qur'an are examined from a Mahdavi perspective.
Part 1
1. Verse 12 - Surah Al-Mujadila
Ayah:
"O you who have believed, when you confer privately with the Messenger, spend before your private consultation. That is better for you and purer. But if you find not [the means], then indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." (58:12)
Hadith:
Imam Ali (A.S) - When the verse "O you who have believed, when you confer privately with the Messenger..." was revealed, the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) called me and asked, "What do you think about a dinar for each meeting?" I replied, "They cannot afford it." He then asked, "How much?" I replied, "The grains of barley!" He said, "That is too little." Then the verse: "Do you fear to give charity before your private consultation?" was revealed. Allah removed this burden from the Ummah because of me, and this verse was revealed neither before nor after me. (Bihar al-Anwar, Vol. 35, p. 378)
Mahdavi Perspective:
This verse emphasizes charity before private conversations, highlighting the purity of intention. Imam Ali (A.S) exemplifies the spirit of giving, aligning with the Mahdavi perspective of selflessness and purity that will prevail when the Mahdi (A.S) reappears.

2. Verse 18 - Surah Al-Mujadila
Ayah:
"On the Day when Allah will resurrect them all, and they will swear to Him as they swear to you, and they will think they are on something. But indeed, they are liars." (58:18)
Hadith:
Imam Sadiq (A.S) - These individuals will be in front of Allah, swearing that they did not commit shirk. However, they are the ones who have denied the rightful claim of Imam Ali (A.S) and wronged the truth. On the Day of Judgment, their limbs will testify against them, and their tongues will be sealed. (Bihar al-Anwar, Vol. 7, p. 312)
Mahdavi Perspective:
The Mahdi (A.S) will be the one who uncovers the truth and brings justice to those who have been deceitful. Their false oaths and claims of righteousness will be revealed.

3. Verse 10 - Surah Al-Hashr
Ayah:
"And those who came after them say, 'Our Lord, forgive us and our brothers who preceded us in faith, and do not place in our hearts any resentment toward those who have believed. Our Lord, indeed You are Kind and Merciful.'" (59:10)
Hadith:
Imam Hasan (A.S) - The verse mentions that Muslims after the Prophet (PBUH) will pray for Imam Ali (A.S), who was the first to believe. He was the one who became closest to the Prophet (PBUH) and led the community. This prayer of forgiveness acknowledges the special position of Imam Ali (A.S) as the first Muslim and his significant role in Islam. (Bihar al-Anwar, Vol. 69, p. 153)
Mahdavi Perspective:
The prayer for forgiveness and unity mirrors the anticipation of the Mahdi's (A.S) return, where all will be united under his just leadership, free from any resentment.

4. Verse 18 - Surah Al-Hashr
Ayah:
"O you who have believed, fear Allah, and let every soul look to what it has sent forth for tomorrow, and fear Allah. Indeed, Allah is All-Aware of what you do." (59:18)
Hadith:
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) - "O people! Consider Ali as superior, for after me, no one is greater than him. Anyone who opposes him will be cursed." (Bihar al-Anwar, Vol. 37, p. 208)
Mahdavi Perspective:
The call to reflect on one's actions aligns with the Mahdavi vision, where the return of the Mahdi (A.S) will bring forth accountability and a righteous community led by the true guide.
