Need of knowing God in words of Imam Abu Abd Allah Jafar (p)
The following is an example of what has been recorded on the authority of Imam Abu Abd Allah Jafar b. Muhammad, peace be on them, - who was martyred on 15th of 10th month of Islamic calender that is Shavval - concerning the necessity of knowing God the Most High and His religion. Tragedy of Baqii Cemetery demolition by Saudi rulers
The cemetery of Baqii, which is the burial place of holy Prophet (S.W.)’s beloved daughter Sayyedah Fatimah Az-Zahraa (A.S.), his son Ibrahim (A.S.), four infallible Imams from his progeny (A.S.) – Al-Imam Al-Hassan (A.S.), Al-Imam Zayn-ol Abidin (A.S.), Al-Imam Al-Baqer (A.S.) and Al-Imam As-Sadeq (A.S.) -, his wives except Sayyedah Khadija (A.S.) and Maymounah (R.A.), his uncles and aunts as well as according to traditions ten thousand companions of him, was bulldozed by the Aal-i-Sa’ud (Saudi rulers) on 8th day of 10th month of Islamic calendar that is Shawwal in 1926. Historic perspective of demolition of Baqee & Mualla cemeteries
Turkey was practically a Muslim State under the control of a Muslim caliph but the intrigues of British and the conspiracies hatched by the opponents, not only tore his caliphate apart into pieces but rooted out it for ever. At first, the British continued hypocritical attitude against Muslims quietly and then started taking part in conspiracies against them.

Points of wisdom from Bab Madina-tul Ilm
Seal of Messengers Prophet Muhammad b. Abdollah (s)’s seventh infallible descendant Al-Imam Musa b. Jafar Al-Kazem (s) narrated from his respected father from their respect worthy grandfather Ali b.

Sohaan Abdi asked Imam Ali (s), who according to a saying of Holy Prophet (s) is Bab Madinatul Ilm (Gate of City of Knowledge), some question. Prophet (s)’s traditions concerning status of Ali Al-Murtaza (s)
There are hundreds of traditions from holy Prophet (peace be upon him & his pure progeny) narrated by both A’mah and Khasah about love and friendship for Imam Ali (peace be upon him) as well as on his virtues and high status. Imam Hassan (p)’s quotes: A little selection

1. The author of Yanabi' al-Mawaddah relates that the Prophet (p) said: "A1-Mahdi is a descendent of mine. He will be in concealment, and when he manifests himself, the earth will become filled with justice, just as it was previously filled with injustice." Ali Al-Akbar (p), Look-alike of the Prophet (p)
The Hashemite Prince Hazrat Ali Al-Akbar (p), son of Imam Al-Hussain (p) and Hazrat Umm-e-Layla (p), born on 11 Shaban, possessed so much remarkable resemblance to the holy prophet Hazrat Muhammad (p) that the Chief of Martyrs and Leader of the Youths of Paradise Al-Imam Al-Hussain (p) was often heard to say “Whenever I desire to see the holy prophet (p) I look at him.” Hazrat Qasim (as) – coolness of Imam Hassan (as)’s heart

A man came running to the Prophet (s.w.)’s Mosque in the holy city of Medina. For a moment he stood at the door looking among the worshippers for some particular person.

Therefore, she told him: “This is the last day of my life … my children … they will soon be orphans, without a mother!!” Centuries of poetry speaks of oppressions on Sayyidah Zahra (p)
Poets, since the first generations and till our time, have thoroughly covered what Sayyidah al-Zahra’ (A.S.) underwent of oppression, persecution and beating. They make their poetry target those who participated in all of that or did not stop it. Some of them were contemporary to the Imams (A.S.), or their time was close to that of the Imam’s.

Objective of human life is worship of Allah while height and acme of worship is piousness and on this basis the foundation of human moral system is and the standard of human dignity has been declared piousness.

What is Islam?
Islam is peace Islam is ease,
Final victory of Islam is very near
Islam interprets history as a constant struggle between right and wrong. This struggle goes on at various levels of society between the forces of right, virtuousness, love of Allah, faith, justice, equality, sacrifice, correct thinking, purity and truth on the one hand, and those of falsehood, egoism, materialism, pragmatism, tyranny, selfishness, injustice, faithlessness, discrimination, corruption, infringement of others rights and wretchedness on the other. Rights of a brother in faith
There are numerous traditions in connection with the rights of the believers and brothers-in-faith. A few of such traditions are quoted below: Great wonders of Zam Zam Water
We came in Mecca again to perform the Omrah, and I am reminded of the wonders of Zam Zam. Let me go back to how it all started. In 1971, an Egyptian doctor wrote to the European Press, a letter saying that Zam Zam water was not fit for drinking purposes. I immediately thought that this was just a form of prejudice against the Muslims and that since his statement was based on the assumption that since the Ka'aba was a shallow place (below sea level) and located in the center of the city of Mecca, the wastewater of the city collecting through the drains fell into well holding the water. How Satan, the Master Hypnotist, hypnotizes humanity
Hypnosis is a trance-like condition characterized by an altered state of consciousness, diminished will power, and an increased responsiveness to suggestion.
