Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Journey of the Unseen World Chapter 10 – a Visit To Hell I said "I'm prepared to leave, but Haadi theres one thing which saddens me.He said. "Sadness and in the Valley of Peace! I cannot believe it." "You are right, but didn't you notice that Hazrat Abbas (A.S.) and Hazrat Ali Akbar (A.S.) are still in their battle-dress and blood stains still visible on Hazrat Ali Asghar's (A.S.) neck.

I wish to avenge their deaths." He replied, "But their enemies, the accursed beings, are in the Valley of Barhoot and it is the duly of the Twelfth Imam. the Imam Mehdi (A.S.) to avenge, which he shall, whenever he appears. I said, "True, but I wish to go to the Valley of Barhoot and punish them with my own two hands." "God has ordained two harsh and severe angels for this task. Do you consider yourself more capable than God and his angels?" "No, no, of course not!

Of course nobody is more severe than God and his angels because he is the Ultimate Justice. No doubt he is Benevolent and Merciful, but he is also the Forceful and all-powerful. However, it was my desire to punish them personally." "No doubt God will reward you for your feelings. But you should realise that the Faithful's illuminance can cool down the fire of Hell.

Are you willing that the heat should decrease for the period that you are there?" He was right and so I said, "All right, but at least take me to some place from where I may be able to see them being punished." When Haadi saw that I lust would not be satisfied he left to present my request to the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him), Hazrat Ali (A.S.) and Hazrat Fatima (A.S.). When they learnt about this. they prayed for my welfare and the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him) said, "O Lord!

We Ahlebait are always content and satisfied with whatever your will is. because you only wish the best. We cannot dare object. However today one of your servants has come to your guest house where sorrow and sadness cannot enter, but he loves us so much that he wishes to see our enemies being punished and he will not be content until his desire is fulfilled.

If you please, in order to satisfy him, allow him to see the Valley of Barhoot." The Holy Prophet's (Peace be upon him) wish was granted and it was ordered that I should be allowed to see the enemies of the Ahlebait (A.S.) being punished but that angels should accompany me so that I would not be troubled at all in this journey and the hot air would not harm me.
