After that Allah...

After that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime would make him reappear and conquer the east and the west of the earth at his hands and send down from the heaven, the Spirit of Allah, Prophet Isa bin Maryam (as) who will recite Prayers behind him…”[^3] Now that our discussion has reached this point, it would be better to present the matter in three sections: Section One: Resemblance Of His Eminence To The Prophets (as) Resemblance to Adam The Almighty Allah appointed Adam as His caliph on the whole earth and made him its heir and He says in the Qur’an: إِنِّي جَاعِلٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةً “I am going to place in the earth a vicegerent.” (Qur’an, Surah Baqarah 2:30) And the Almighty Allah would also make Hazrat Hujjat as the inheritor of the earth and will appoint him as His caliph on His earth, as narrated from His Eminence, Abu Abdillah Sadiq (as) that he said with reference to the exegesis of the verse: وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنْكُمْ وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ “Allah has promised to those of you who believe and do good that He will most certainly make them rulers in the earth.” (Qur’an, Surah Noor 24:55) “He is the Qaim and his companions; and at the time of his reappearance he would pass his hands over his face and say: Praise be to Allah, One Who fulfilled His promise and made us inherit the earth…”[^4] In the Hadith of Mufaddal it is mentioned that: “He will come out with a cloud shading him from above and on which a caller would be announcing: This is Mahdi, the caliph of Allah; follow him.” Weeping of Adam (as): It is narrated from the Holy Prophet (S) that he said: “Adam wept so much at the separation of Paradise that his tears flowed on both his cheeks like floods.”[^5] This same type of tradition is also narrated from Imam Sadiq (as):[^6] His Eminence, Qaim (aj) also, like Adam would weep much as he says in the Ziarat Nahiya addressing his ancestor, Husain (as): “I lament for you day and night and instead of tears I weep blood.” Regarding Adam (as) the verse was revealed that: وَعَلَّمَ آدَمَ الْأَسْمَاءَ كُلَّهَا “And He taught Adam all the names…” (Qur’an, Surah Baqarah 2:31) As for the Qaim; whatever the Almighty Allah taught to Adam, He taught the same and many other things to the Qaim (aj).
