Pleasing
the Believers
Pleasing
the believers during the time of Ghaibat makes
the
Imam (a.s.) very happy. Pleasing the believers is
possible
through monetary assistance and physical help.
Sometimes
their pleasure is obtained by solving their
problems
or recommending their case to some authorities or
even
by praying for them. At other times we could make
them
happy by giving them respite for the repayment of a
debt.
Thus while performing any of the above actions if the
intention
of the doer is that Imam (a.s.) will be pleased with
it,
he will get the reward for it. Rather, there is more virtue
in
this than merely pleasing the believers. A tradition of
Imam
Sadiq (a.s.) in Al-Kafi says, "Those of you who please
a
believer should not think that you have pleased only this
believer.
By Allah! He has pleases us! Rather by Allah! He
has
pleased the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.)."
(Al-Kafi Vol. 2 Pg. 189)
