Moral: Imams (A) have a supreme knowledge so that they are able to answer whatever question is put to them. 2. What age you are does not matter but how much youknow matters. People will treat you like a child unlessyou can show them otherwise - through your knowledgeand your Akhlaq. In the time of our 10th Imam, Imam Ali an-Naqi (A) the king was a bad man called Mutawakkil. One day Mutawakkil fell very ill. The doctors could notmake him better.

Mutawakkil's mother was very sad and asked Imam Ali an-Naqi (A) to help him. Imam Ali an-Naqi (A) told her what medicine to use to make Mutawakkil better and when she used what Imam (A) had told her to use, Mutawakkil became well again. All the doctors were very surprised. Although Mutawakkil was a bad man, Imam Ali an-Naqi (A) still helped him, because the mother had come to him for help. Moral: If anyone ever asks you for help you should help themeven if they are not very nice.

Once in the time of our 10th Imam, Imam Ali an-Naqi (A), a man came to Imam (A) and told him that if Imam (A) did not help him, he would be killed. Imam Ali an-Naqi (A) asked the man to explain. The man explained that he had been given an expensive stone by the King and told to write something on it. The man continued that when he went to write on it, the stone broke in half and when the king would find out, he would kill the man.

Imam Ali an-Naqi (A) prayed for the man, then told the man not to worry, and that Allah would look after him. The next day when the king came to pick up his stone, the man was shaking because he was so scared. The king told the man that he had changed his mind and now wanted the stone broken in half, one piece for each one of his two daughters, with the writing on each half of the stone.

Moral: No matter what trouble you are faced with always trust in Allah and ask for His help as He can make anything happen. Previous…
