Thursday, April 9th, 2020, marks the birth anniversary of Imam Muhammad al-Mahdi (p), 15th of Shaban, 1441 A.H.

Imam al-Mahdi (p) is reported to have said: “As for benefiting from me during my occultation, it is like benefiting from the sun when it disappears from sight due to clouds. I am a [source of] safety for dwellers of the earth, as the stars are a [source of] safety for the dwellers of heaven.”

[Al-Majlisi, Bihar al-anwar, vol. 75, p. 380]


روي عن الإمام المهدي (ع):  وَأَمَّا وَجْهُ الِانْتِفَاع بِي فِي غَيْبَتِي فكَالانْتِفاعِ بِالشَّمْسِ إذَا غَيَّبَهَا عَنِ الْأَبْصَارِ السَّحَابُ، وَإِنِّي أَمَانٌ لِأَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ كَمَا أَنَّ النُّجُومَ أَمَانٌ لِأَهْلِ السَّمَاءِ
[ المجلسي، بحار الأنوار، ج ٧٥، ص ٣٨٠]
