From concept to reality: the coming of Gadir.
Ustad Abdini explains that as we approach the end of time, the concepts of religion must become a tangible reality (masdīq) in our lives.
The concept: For generations we have heard of Jadir. We knew that on that day, in the scorching heat, the Prophet (pbuh) raised the hand of Imam Ali (pbuh), and the people gave their pledge of allegiance (Bayya). The Koran says: "O Messenger, convey what was revealed to you" -. Surah Al-Meidah 5:67 "O Messenger, announce what has been sent to you. ".
We understood it as a historic event, but for many, it remained a distant concept.
The reality (Masadik): Today we saw with our own eyes what it means to wait for a leader and give a commitment. In recent events, the nation held its breath until a new leader was appointed. The way the people came together, the rush to pledge allegiance, and the immense power of bayah in the modern world gave us a glimpse of Jadir's reality.
What happened then, and what we see now, is like a drop in the ocean compared to Jadir's reality - but it made the idea tangible. When the concepts of religion become a tangible reality, a believer's faith increases.
