It’s hard 2 imagine the pain that was inflicted upon the only surviving daughter of #ProphetMuhammad, Lady #FatimahAlZahra by those who claimed 2 be companions of the Prophet! Indeed, “& they who act unjustly shall know to what final place of turning they shall turn back”(26:227)

#ImamSajjad in Damascus, “Beware of this world & what’s in it…The hands of time destroyed them [ppl] & snakes and worms consumed them. World destroyed them as if they never were of its ppl & its inhabitants.” We will also follow. So “Take provision,4 the best provision is Taqwa”

It’s Friday. IMAGINE! You’re walking down the street and #ImamAlMahdi stops u & asks, 1. “How good of a follower have u been?” 2. “How much do u remember me?” 3. “What have u done 2 prepare 4 my return?” What would we answer…?!

Did we remember our 12th Imam (‘alayhi assalam) today? If yes, then how many times did we pray for him? How much did we converse with him? What good deeds did we perform and gift to him? He must be present in our lives. U can do 100 Salawat & gift 2 him! #SalamYaImamAlMahdi

Very few ppl remained loyal 2 #ProphetMuhammad after his death. Few ppl remained loyal 2 #ImamAli, #ImamHasan & #ImamHusayn In general, only few remain loyal. That’s where we recognize the greatness of Abu Al-Fadhil #AlAbbas We pray 2 b among the loyal ones.

Thank you, London & @AlAkbarFound for all your hospitality & support! The people attending the Majalis were motivating! While we are all are inspired by #ImamHusayn , you were all truly inspirational! May Allah unite us with Imam Husayn in this world & the hereafter! Ahsantum!

Praise be to Allah Who made us among those who hold on to the authority (Wilayah) of Amir al-Mu’mineen, Ali ibn Abi Talib (‘alayhi assalam). The Week of Wilayah - from Ghadir to Mubahalah: 18th to 24th of Dhilhijjah. It’s the celebration of the completion of the religion!

Over the last century alone, we saw the great influence of Shi’i scholars upon their followers & their steadfast perseverance against attacks, calamities & tribulations. Salutations to #ImamAlBaqir who had a pivotal influence & role in the making of such great scholars!

Congrats 2 #ImamAlMahdi & the world on the auspicious birth of #ImamAlRidha who is also known as al-Ra’oof (the Compassionate) & al-Dhaamin (the Guarantor). O Imam! The Shi’a need yr compassion to guarantee their victory over the oppressors through the Waseela of #ImamAlMahdi

#ImamSadiq “Community of Shi’a! Be a source of beauty 4 us & don’t be a disgrace! Speak kindness 2 people; maintain your tongues & keep them away from vanity & bad language.” If we reflect on our actions of last week alone, would we be a beauty or disgrace 2 Ahlulbayt?!

#ImamAli “It’s only an Eid 4 one who Allah accepted his fast & was grateful 4 him standing up [in prayers]. And every day u don’t disobey Allah is a day of Eid.” We pray 2 Allah to bless the Mu’mineen on this day to have an Eid according 2 the definition of #ImamAli

Dear followers, We’re living tumultuous times. Yet, Allah reminds us, “For surely! With difficulty comes ease. Indeed, with difficulty comes ease” (94:5-6). May Allah on this day of Eid make the Mu’mineen feel the ease as we experience these difficulties. Requesting your Du’a!
