Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books A Journey To The Fact Obligation.. Doubt.. Who Is God?! The son was watching TV when his father came home late at night. He knew that there was something serious his father wanted to say. The family had just finished supper when the father asked his son to go into a quiet room nearby to have their conversation. The son was very curious to know the subject to be discussed with his father. F Do you know why I wanted to see you tonight, son? S No Dad.
But I guess it is something serious. F I have been thinking and planning for this meeting and the coming ones for a while. S Since when, Dad? F Since your puberty, about a year ago. I’ve been preparing a special program for you. S What is this program? And what does it have to do with my puberty? F Puberty is the transition period between childhood and manhood, fun and seriousness, unlimited freedom and responsibility, as you know.
In this program, I’m going to have a series of discussions with you about religion, beliefs, faith, life, mankind, society, the universe and many other things that you should know the true meaning of and develop an opinion and attitude suitable to your state of maturity and adulthood. S Thank you, Dad, for trusting me. F Son, first of all, this trust is God’s trust. And if you didn’t have the capacity, He wouldn’t entrust you with obligations.
It is an honor that humans alone, of all the creatures of the earth, are entrusted with obligations. S Quite right Dad, what you say makes me feel proud, and love God even more because He obliges me with responsibility. I hope to be a good servant of God and to love and obey him. F Well-said. A righteous servant loves God and obeys Him. Love and obedience are inseparable.
A poet said “A lover obeys the beloved.” S It seems to me that those who disobey God do this because they don’t have the love of God in their hearts. F Exactly, even some of those whose faith is weak don’t feel the love for God; so, when they perform their religious duties, they do so with reluctance, and when they pray, they pray with laziness. S Yesterday, I read this in the Quran: “ If ye do love Allah, Follow me: Allah will love you .” F What do you understand from this verse?
S I infer that there is a mutual love between God and the believer. F And that love means obedience and enduring hardship for the sake of the beloved.
