The Last Preparation before the Reappearance of the Saviour Agha Alireza Panahian 2019 The last preparation needed before the Reappearance is for the managers of the society to be corrected. Because, the Imam of the Time’s (‘a.j.) government and his reappearance involve managing the society. The Imam will not come just to pray. You know this. Do you think if people are unworthy, the Imam will bring angels or 313 people from the sky? He won’t say, “You don’t need to understand what management is. You don’t need to understand the difference between a good manager and a bad manager at all. I’ll choose a manager for you myself.” If this is the way it will be, then I’m sorry, but was humankind a plaything up until now?! He could have come sooner. “Be miserable for a while. Now, from today, we have decided for you to be prosperous!” Why do some people think like a cartoon or a legend?! The Imam of the Time’s (‘a.j.) government and his reappearance involve managing the society. If the prophets wanted to take us to Heaven like sheep, they didn’t need to go through so much trouble! For example, when the people didn’t understand something, the Prophet could have said, “You don’t need to do anything. I’ll fix it myself! Dear Ali, come here tonight so that we can plan! Kill these two. Bring those two. Slap those two! Done!” The next day, “People come to pray. Everything is fixed! Done!” It’s impossible that we don’t understand what righteous managing is and then 313 righteous managers govern us, and we deserve for them to be our masters! Once, some people decided to kill the prophet! The trustworthy angel Gabriel exposed them and said, “They’ll come in front of you tonight to kill you.” The Prophet told Hudhayfah and a few other people to come to increase the number of his guards since some wanted to murder him. They increased the number of guards. Those people were exposed and caught. Hudhayfah said, “O Prophet, we should kill them! They wanted to kill a prophet!” The Prophet (s) said, “No, let them go.” They returned to Medina. Hudhayfah asked, “Shall we kill them now? We’re not in the desert anymore!” The Prophet (s) said, “No.” “At least let’s announce it so that they will be exposed!” “No.” “If they stay, they will do the same thing after you!” The Prophet (s) gave an answer, which in brief was, “People should understand who these are themselves, even without me disclosing them!” Are we awaiting the Reappearance? The people of the world should realize that these 313 Helpers are the most deserving, even without Imam Mahdi introducing them! Why are they the most deserving?! Why is their behaviour worthy?! Why are others besides them unworthy?! Why is any other method wrong! People should know these things for the Reappearance to happen! This is the needed preparation for the Reappearance. “If we don’t want to become a manager, must we still understand management?” Yes! That’s it. Otherwise, managers will turn you into a plaything by acting populistic. Do you know when humankind will deserve to have 313 rulers on earth? When they distinguish the difference between just and worthy rulers, and unworthy rulers. [From the series of speeches under the topic of “The Last Preparation before the Reappearance of the Saviour, Correcting Management in Family and Society.” Muharram 1441.]

Have you looked at Ashura from this angle before Agha Ali Raza Panahiyan A cartoonist suddenly changes how you look at a phenomenon. A graphic artist changes your outlook all at once. A painter changes your outlook all at once. A photographer changes your outlook all at once. A filmmaker or a maker of documentaries change it in another way. Before artists have a talent in expressing something, painting, or drawing, they have a talent in how they choose to look at things. These eulogies that you enjoy give you a way of looking and say, “Look from this angle.” You cry and enjoy it. The readers of eulogies and those who read very nice poems… Have you seen their way of looking at these scenes? What beautiful ways there are of looking at these things, which haven’t been used yet. We are so dependent upon art to change our outlook and to help us find a correct outlook. It is very important how artists look at tragedies. Beauty is created from this. Actually, what makes an artist powerful in conveying his or her own view to others is his or her outlook. Sometimes that outlook itself makes a person an artist. How do you look at Hazrat Sakinah (‘a)? Have you seen that some girls are like this that they are very cheerful, articulate, honest and frank, even though the people around them may be bothered by what they say. They are very inquisitive and restless. They can’t stop themselves from saying what they want. They bring cheer to any meeting. At any gathering, without doing anything bad, they make the gathering warmer. Hazrat Sakinah (‘a) is the one, who called out when Imam Husayn (‘a) was near the Alqamah Stream, “Where is my uncle Abbas?” Hazrat Sakinah (‘a) is the one, who called out, “Come down Dad,” when he wanted to go. I think the older people were biting their lips and thinking, “Sakinah don’t say that and don’t break your father’s heart.” She said directly, “Dad, can you take us to Medina first and then go into the battlefield?” Sakinah is the one who came to her aunt Zaynab and said, “Auntie, whose body is this that you are talking to?” Sakinah talked with her father in such a way that Husayn’s cut throat began to answer her. This girl can’t be quieted. Sakinah is a busy, cheerful, active girl. From what time on was there no longer any news from her? She had this vibrancy all along the way. They whipped this girl so much that they made her quiet. The other women would hide this vibrant girl in the beginning so that these dishonourable men wouldn’t notice this vibrant girl. I think she changed when three-year-old Ruqayah left this world from the ruins. Sakinah, who helped with the children very much, wasn’t seen to be cheerful anymore. How do you look at Hazrat Sakinah? She was the vibrant girl whom they made quiet and depressed. I haven’t given you any new information! But, when you put these next to each other, you say, “Yes, that’s true!” What an opportunity these artists have! How they can play with people’s way of seeing things. This is their job, if they want to and have the ability. If they have a correct outlook, and then God gives them the talent, they can change your and my outlook. There are still opportunities for new stories to be told about Karbala. There are still opportunities for new images to be drawn about Karbala.

On the 12th of July 2006, following the kidnapping of the two Israeli soldiers by the Resistance, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah held a press conference in Beirut, in which he advised the Zionist officials that were present in 2006, that before thinking about declaring war on Lebanon, they should ask the former Israeli heads of state and ministers about their past experiences in Lebanon. Ofcourse, the Israeli Winograd Commission (the director of which can be seen towards the end) found that Israel had lost the war, as Israel had failed to achieve its objectives in Lebanon, first of which was to completely wipe out the Resistance. Not only did this not happen, but Hezbollah is believed today to be several times more powerful than it was during the war in 2006.
