Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Elixir of Love Politics The Shaykh was not involved in politics; however, he was strongly opposed to the detested Pahlavi regime and the ruling statesmen. He was not only opposed to the Shah, but also disapproved Musaddeq. He praised, however, Ayatollah Kashani (ra) and said: "His inward aspect was similar to a fountainhead." Two Political Predictions One of the Shaykh's sons said: 'On 30th of Tir, 1330 S.H.

(July 21, 1951) when the Shaykh arrived in the house, he burst into tears and said': "Hadrat-i Sayyid al- Shuhada put out this fire and prevented this affliction; many people were intended to be massacred on this day. Ayatollah Kashani will not be successful (victorious), but there will come a Sayyid who will succeed." Later on his prediction turned out to be about Imam Khomeini (ra).

The Future of the Islamic Revolution Speaking of Imam Khomeini (ra), it is interesting to know his foresight concerning the future of the Islamic Revolution. Mr. Ali Muhammad Bisharati-- former interior minister-- related that in the summer of 1358/1979, when he was in charge of the Intelligence Department of sipah-i pasdaran (Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps), he received a report on Mr.

Shari'atmadari (a then dissident cleric) who had said in Mashhad: 'I will eventually declare war against Imam Khomeini (ra).' Mr. Bisharati said: 'I went to see Imam Khomeini (ra) and among other reports I informed him of what was said about him by Mr. Shari'atmadari. The Imam (ra) listened with bowed head, and when I ended my talk, he raised his head and said: "What are they saying? Our victory is guaranteed by Allah.

We will be successful, and set up an Islamic government and hand over the banner to the rightful banner-bearer (Imam Mahdi (a))." I asked: 'Yourself (will hand it over)?' Imam (ra) kept silent and did not answer.' Nasir al-Din Shah Qajar in the Purgatory World One of the Shaykh's disciples related the following from him about the condition of Nasir al-Din Shah Qajar in the Purgatory State: "His soul was set free on Friday, the evening of which he was being forced back to his previous station.

He was crying and begging the agents (who were escorting) him not to take him back.
