Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Mikyalul Makarim Fee Fawaaid ad-Duaa Lil Qai’m vol. 1 The Letter Ta (T) Uniting People It is not a simple matter to unite and bring together the hearts (of different people). Most of the people have one of the two conditions, either they do not discern what is really good for them, therefore they resort to what is harmful for them. Or that they adopt what is really good for them but for the sake of worldly benefits they are satisfied with it.

The only one who has reconciled both these conditions is the purified being of the Imam of the Age (aj).

Therefore we read in Dua Nudbah: “Where is the one who amidst disunity brings together reconciliation and agreement?” In a supplication of Amirul Momineen Ali (as) it is mentioned regarding His Eminence: “The disunity of the Ummah will be transformed into unity by him.” A tradition states: “Through him will be united the disunited and scattered hearts (of people) into an integrated entity.” In Kafi it is narrated from Imam Sadiq (as) that he said: “Through the medium of His Eminence, the Almighty Allah will unite the hearts (of people) that are divided and scattered.”[^1] In Biharul Anwar there is a tradition from Amirul Momineen Ali (as) that he said: “I asked, “O, Messenger of Allah (S), is the Mahdi from us the Household of Muhammad or from the others?” He said, “Rather, he is ours.

Allah will complete the religion through him, as He opened it through us. Through us they are rescued from mischief, as they were rescued from polytheism. Through us Allah will bring their hearts together as brothers after the hostility of mischief, as He brought them together as brothers in their religion after the hostility of polytheism.”[^2] The above tradition has been narrated through Ahle Sunnat channels and by the grace of Allah we believe in its authenticity.

The Mercy And Favors Of His Eminence With Regard To Us Testifying to the graces and favors of His Eminence with regard to us is the epistle ( Tawqee ) quoted in Ihtijaaj: “It has come to our notice that a group among you is in doubt regarding the religion and their minds are in doubt and confusion regarding the master of your affair. This has caused us sadness. Indeed, for your own sake and not for us, and the cause of our distress is from your side not ours.

Because the Almighty Allah is with us, so we are not in need of anyone else.
