Imam sadiq’s sermons
We don’t contact to this subject that in imam sadiq’s life, he goes up to the pulpit
for guidance to the people and to give a lecture. and in imam’s age he couldn’t
gives a lecture in manifest to the people because of the age’s condition.but after
a lot of trying we could find two sermons of imam sadiq that
one of them is long
and
the other one is short:
The first sermon:
The first sermon is made from two parts. first it’s about prophet Mohammad’s descripthion,and
the second one is about imam’s qualities and their descriptions that the first part’s
translation is written here:
God is so kind and sympathetic to his creature that their bad works and their crimes
don’t prevent him to don’t send Mohammad; their lovely and best prophet to their
guidance.
Prophet Mohammad was born in the honorable and great family. and there isn’t any
suspicious in his purity character.
And his behavior and characteristics is familiar by the world wises. He is a prophet
that the God's other prophets announced his coming in their books and the Scientifics
said a lot about his characteristics and philosophers were so careful to said about
his accomplishments and his behavior's preferences. He was a well intended that
never inclined to embarrassed. He was a man that there is nobody the same as him
and nobody could reach to his position. He was the character that shame was manifest
from his face and a prophetic behavior was evident in all his existence, his guidance
and characteristics.
God's wish is that each nation should give good sense to the next generation about
the prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him).
God's resolve and the world that the God creates is like that each nation gave glad
tidings to its next nation about the new prophet and each Imam transfers this news
to the next Imam.
There weren't any unclean less in his nature and in his marriages that he could
right a way with them there wasn't any unclean less and
un truthfulness.
He grown up in of the best tribes, the greatest generation and the healthiest womb
from Adam's creation till Abdullah's creation, his last father.
God chose him and was satisfied from him and granted him with a lot of knowledge
and appointed him the best prophet for peoples whom were so depress.
God gave him the Quran, the most complete book that there are descriptions about
every thing. This book is Arabic without any deviation for people for them to accept
the Piety.
The Prophet Mohammad explained this book to people and with this book he interpreted
the religion. He explained the things that the God orderd to do and duties and distinguished
the life's frontier.
He disclosed the secrets that should have been disclosed to the people and opened
the ways that were so important for people's guidance. So he started his teachings
and listened to God's commands decisively and did all his responsibilities in the
best way. He tried a lot in God's way and guidance of people to the deliverance
he reminded people of the God and show them the right way and for measure this way
appointed some signs, because he didn't want his companions deviat after him; so
he was the kind leader and he still is.
In the second part of this sermon, Imam Sadiq says about Imams charactristis:
God, the most high, with his prophet destroyed all religious suspicious and show
the right way in peoples existence; so each person that knows all the things about
his leader or Imam he knowes all the things about the religion and understand Islam's
beauty, because God put the perfect sign to the people of each age.
Imam constantly confirmed by God and the people could not reach to the God's satisfaction
without Imam, and their prays will not pass to God unless they know about the Imam
of their age.
Imam is omniscience about all problems that maybe happen in the different conditions
and he is knowledgeable too about all old customs that always were in history.
God, the most high, always chose Imams for people from Hoseein's generation and
make them known to people by themselves. God is so satisfied and so happy with their
leadership and when one of Imams died the next Imam appointed by the God to the
Leadership of people. There are clear signs that shows Imams are chosen by the God.
They know truthfulness, and all of them are moving to the God, invite people to
the religion, and are guides by the creator.
The people will be religious with their invitation and the countries were shining
with their existence. Because of their religion the prosperous effects increased.
The God chose Imams for societies, life, and appointed them like bright torch in
the darkness of ignorance. They are Islam's bases and knowledge keys.
These imams were the substitutes of prophets like Noah, Abraham, and Ismael's generation.
Imams are divine and never commit any crime. Imam is free from Evil's trap and he
is pure from any darkness and ignorance. You can not find any defect in the existence
of Imam. At the end of his father's life he is appointed to guide people and by
the knowledge granted to him by the God give happiness to the life people. So the
helpless people awarded of religion by Imam. Those who follow their instructions
became prosperous in two the worlds.
And those people who do not follow imam's instructions and do not accept their high
position would be unlucky in the two worls.
