Hub-e-Ali 17+

These days, Shia Muslims are residing in almost all parts of the world and converse in many languages, some of us were even born in foreign countries and have never visited our homeland, so we have gradually lost a grip on our first language. Our religious and social values have been at variance, one way or another, as per our exposure and interactions with different cultural, social and religious factors.

Our ancestors having gone through the hardship and cruel treatment from Bani Ummah l.a. and Bani Abbas l.a. as well as other similar Muslim rulers who forced them to migrate from city to city and country to country, initially, to escape persecution and brutal punishments- for the only crime of loving and following Ahl Al-Bayt asws. However, under all circumstances, they had adhered to the Wilayah of Ahl Al-Bayt asws the most valuable treasure to be guarded, preserved and passed on to their children, generation after generation.

The role of those who converted to Shia Islam is equally admirable as most of them had to leave their dear ones and had to adopt to a new way of life and religious practice. They too face an uphill task to find the real teachings of Islam, as there are so many sects and views (mostly negative) about Muslims.

Islam today is a reflection of years of distortion and innovations, therefore, the Islamic practices will be very different at the time when the last Imam ajfj reappears to correct our affairs; as per various Ahadeeth, most religious authorities will oppose himajfj as will their followers!


وروي عن الباقر (ض) وإذا خرج هذا الامام المهدي فليس له عدو مبين إلا الفقهاء خاصة، هو والسيف اخوان، ولولا أن السيف بيده لافتوا الفقهاء في قتله، ولكن الله يظهره بالسيف والكرم، فيطيعون ويخافون، فيقبلون حكمه من غير إيمان بل يضمرون خلافه.
Imam Mohammed Baqir asws (the 5th Imam) says: "When Al-Mahdi ajfj takes a stand, he ajfj will not have an open enemy other than the ‘Fuqha’ (religious authorities). He ajfj will have the Sword (for support). And had it not been for the sword in his ajtfs hands, the ‘Fuqha’ would issue ‘Fatwas’ for him ajtfs to be killed, but Allah azwj will Support him ajfj with ‘Al-Karam’ (Divine Powers) and the Sword. They (the Fuqha) will obey (him ajfj) and will be fearful. Thus, they would be accepting his ajfj rulings without ‘Eman’ (belief) but they will harbour (enmity) against him ajfj.



The aim of www.hubeali.com is to prepare ourselves so that we can be in the service of the 12th Imam ajfj, when he ajfj reappears and revives the religion of Allah azwj. To achieve the desired level, it is essential to revert back to the basic teachings of Islam, as communicated to us by Rasool Allah saww and his 12 successors asws - that have reached us today in the form of Ahadith (traditions).

May Allah azwj enable us to believe and act with all that which Pleases Him and Forgive all our mistakes, Ameen Suma Ameen!
