Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Mikyalul Makarim Fee Fawaaid ad-Duaa Lil Qai’m vol. 1 Getting the intercession of Lady Fatima (as) ================================================ That which proves this is a traditional report mentioned in the third volume of Biharul Anwar quoting from Tafseer Furat bin Ibrahim in a lengthy tradition from the Holy Prophet (S) that he said: “After that Jibraeel will say: O Fatima, mention your demand. She will say: O Allah, my Shias.

Allah, the Mighty and the High would say: I have forgiven them. Then she says: O Lord, Shias of my sons. The Almighty Allah will say: I have forgiven them also. Then she says: O Lord, followers of my Shias. At that time the Almighty Allah will say: Go, as all those who have taken refuge with you will be in Paradise.

It is the time when all the people would be wishing they were Fatimids (followers of Fatima Zahra)…”[^1] Without any doubt, praying for an early reappearance of our master, the Master of the Time (aj) is the most prominent type of taking refuge in the chief of the ladies (Fatima). In addition, it is a sign of Shiaism and love to Ahle Bayt (as). Thus it would indeed make one eligible for this precious benefit.

Twelve Conclusions We should know that fulfilling the wishes of a believer is among the best of the deeds and it is an act liked most by Allah, the Mighty and the High. And many rewards and good effects of it are stated in traditions recorded from the Purified Imams (as). It is clear that as much a believer is important and of high status as much is the reward of fulfilling his wishes. And the implication of wish is something that the believer has asked for from among lawful things.

Like something through which harms may be removed from him or something religious or worldly that may benefit him.

Since praying for an early reappearance of our master, the Master of the Time (aj) is something that His Eminence has asked from believers – as mentioned in his Tawqee quoted at the beginning of this section – that he said: “And pray more for early reappearance as in it lies your deliverance.” It can be said with utmost certainty that rewards ordained for fulfilling the needs of a believer will be there for one who performs this act also.

Because there is no difference whether the Imam (as) says: Give me water, or do so-and-so good deed. Or that he says: Pray for so-and-so. In both the cases it is a request or demand and this much is clear.
