“There has died tonight a man who was the first among the early (Muslims) in (good) actions. Nor did any later (Muslim) attain his level in (good) actions. He used to fight alongside the apostle of God, may Allah bless him and his family, and protect him with his own life. The apostle of God, may God bless him and his family, used to send him forward with his standard while Gabriel supported him on his right and Michael supported him on his left. He would not return until God brought victory through his hands. He, peace upon him, has died on this night on which Jesus, son of Mary, was taken up (to heaven), on which Joshua, son of Nun, the testamentary trustee (wasi) of Moses, peace upon him, died. He has left behind him no gold and silver except seven hundred dirhams of his stipend (ata), with which he was intending to buy a servant for his family.
I am the (grand)son of the one who brought the good news. I am the (grand)son of the Warner. I am the (grand)son of the man who, with God’s permission, summoned (the people) to God. I am the (grand)son of the light which shone out (to the world). I am of the house, from whom God has sent away abomination and whom God purified thoroughly. I am of the house for whom God has required love in his book, when God, the most High, said: “Say: I do not ask you for any reward except love for my kin. Whoever earns good, will increase good for himself (XXXIII 33). The good is love for us, the House.”
— ~The speech of imam Al Hassan (as) after the death of his father the commander of the faithful Imam Ali (as)

Your authority (wali) is God and his apostle and those who preform the prayer and pay alms (zakat) while they’re bowing (in prayer) V55 -holy Quran
Imam Ali was the only one who gave charity with a ring in the state of prostration.
Despite of the joy and love Ramadan brings, on the 21st my heart breaks.
Doubts man should ignore meanwhile preforming Salat
According to Sayyed Ali Al Sistani.
The following doubts should be ignored:
- Doubt about an act whose time of performance has already passed, like, during Ruku a person doubts as to whether he did or did not recite Surah al-Hamd,
- Doubt occurring after the Salam of prayers,
- Doubt after the time of prayers has already passed,
- Doubt of a person, who doubts too much,
- Doubt by the Imam (one who leads the congregation prayers) about the number of Rak’ats when the ma’mum (follower) is aware of the number, and similarly the doubts of the ma’mum when the Imam knows the number of Rak’ats.
- Doubt which occurs in Mustahab prayers and Namaz of Ihteya.
The hearts of the Believers are filled with hope and joy on this day.
The birth of imam Al Mahdi (ajf).
“The Mahdi is from my progeny”
Holy prophet Mohammed (saw)
He, peace be on him, said: “Faith is four pillars: trust in Allah, satisfaction with Allah’s decree, submission to Allah’s command, and
entrusting (affairs) to Allah. The Righteous Servant1 said: And I entrust my affair to Allah, so Allah protected him from the evil deeds of what they had schemed. ”
Faith in Allah stands on these four pillars. When a person has them, he attains the top of faith.
Give me wings
I wished I could become a bird, and fly away to a very far land called Karbala. The place where I have lost my heart, the place where for my souls cries every night. Let the wind bring me to a land where the purest blood has shed. Where the angles have come down, to greet their master and show sorrow. The land called Karbala, the land where the sounds of the thirsty orphans still echoes. Bring me to place where hands have fallen. Let me cuddle AbdAllah into sleep. Let me sit side beside the grave of my beloved and weep till I drown in my own tears. Let me complain to the one who’s head was cut off, let me tell him about my heartache and about my grief.
I follow Muhammad man of all mankind, I follow the mistress of all believers, Fatima, I follow the lion of Allah, Ali, and I follow the Masters of Paradise, Hassan and Hussein.
