DUAAS OF
IMAAM-E-ZAMAANA A.F.

Not a single day has passed on the earth when its inhabitants did not have their Leader here. From day-one each community did possess its Leader by one way or the other. We being Muslims, the followers of a religion chosen by Allaah (S.W.T.) for mankind, have been blessed with a sinless Leader in every era, who is also the most knowledgeable, courageous, patient, brave, and endowed with all perfections. After the Holy Prophet (S.A.W.W.) we are commanded to follow his 12 holy household members who are the guides for the mankind as ordained by Allaah (S.W.T.) They were from Imaam Ali (A.S.) upto Imaam Hasan Askari (A.S.) and we are at present passing in the era of the last vicegerent of the Holy Prophet (S.A.W.W.) i.e. the 12th Imaam, i.e. Hujjat-Ibnul-Hasan Imaam Muhammad Mehdi Swaahibuz-Zamaan (A.S.) who is the present Imaam of the age and the right guide for the mankind. We firmly believe that even though The Imaam A.F. is in Ghaibat (Hidden from our sight) but he is aware of all our deeds and conditions. Whenever need arises The Imaam extends his helping hand to us. And Inshaa’Allaah he will soon reappear to us and wipe out all evils from its grassroot levels and finally peace, tranquility, and justice shall prevail from Easts to Wests.

It is also our firm belief that all our deeds, good and bad, are presented to the Imaam, when he sees our good deeds he is happy but he becomes sad and sorrowful when he sees our bad deeds. So we should always keep in mind that there is no any other exceeding good act to that of making our Imaam be happy, and there is no any worst thing then that to make our Imaam weep on seeing us committing bad deeds.Thus all our deeds should incline towards goodness at every moment of our lives, so as to please Allaah, His Prophet, and our Imaam. (A.S.)

A true and sicere devotee of the Imaam should have pure affection towards him and should remain sorrowful because of the absence of our Imaam from our sights. Indeed it is a great calamity to be deprived of his holy company. May be this is because of our sins or unworthiness or any other reason, Allaah (S.W.T.) knows better. We should always pray to Allaah for his safety, reappearence, and request Allaah (S.W.T.)that we should be included amongst the The Imaam’s true followers. Not forgetting that a true follower can only be such who follows the rules and regulations of Shareeah commanded by Allaah (S.W.T.)

Therefore it is our foremost duty to remember our Imaam at all times. Especially while praying Duaa we should beseech Almighty Allaah (S.W.T.) for the safety and speedy reappearence of our Leader, Imaam-e-Zamaana A.F. Hereunder are some Duaas concerning the Imaam of the age:
