The inspirer told us: ‘He is the Lion of Allah, Ali Ibn Abi Talib (a.s.) and has come for condolence.’ Upon reaching the river, the King of Men turned east and walked to the bank of the river till its limit and then disappeared. The inspirer told me: ‘O man! This incident of Karbala’ was shown you in this manner, so that you should mourn for Imam Husayn (a.s.) with respect.’ Weeping on the calamities of Imam Husayn (a.s.) is obligatory.

Ali (a.s.) himself mourned for his son and it is a duty of every believer of Imam Ali (a.s.) to participate in mourning for Imam Husayn (a.s.). O man, remember, one who is not mourning on Imam Husayn is doing injustice to His Eminence, Ali (a.s.). The writer understood the matter of mourning by this dream and there was no need to ask about its interpretation from any scholar or learned one, that whether it was necessary to grieve for Imam Husayn’s (a.s.).

We should know that the writer was a Hanafite before these dreams but after that he gave up his old faith. From writer’s precepts and practices, his family members thought that he was a Tafzeeliya[^1], and this continued for around three years. But when the writer became thirty years of age, he saw Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s.) and Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) in his dream and also saw that he was also standing near them. The invisible speaker announced their names.

The author says: “I asked Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.), O son of Prophet, is your religion same as the religion of Abu Hanifah?’ Imam (a.s.) replied very emphatically: ‘We have no concern with Abu Hanifah.’ After that I awoke and passed the night somehow.

In the morning I prayed according to Ja’fari School, and will follow the same method by the Grace of Allah till my last.” Obviously, all the dreams mentioned above cannot be evidence for anyone else other than the author, but for him, they were like divine commands. The writer continues to get guidance about affairs of religion and the world through such dreams and these dreams are so clear and real that they can hardly be considered as thoughts or dreams.

In other words, through research of truth and happy dreams such a religious revolution was created in him, that is necessary for a follower of the family of the Holy Prophet (S). He is the same that due to his training, considered Imam Husayn (a.s.) as a rebel but now consider him a rightful Imam and the heir and descendent of the Prophet.
