Israa NEWS Agency: Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli said about the blessed month of Rajab: The very blessed month of Rajab is the month of Wilayat, which is just before the month of the Prophet, and both of these are the precursors of Month of Allah. The blessed month of Ramadan was called Shahrullah and our Prophet in the famous sermon said," قَدْ أَقْبَلَ إِلَيْكُمْ شَهْرُ اللَّه" (the month of allah is upon you) and the Prophethood is the way to Towhid and Wilayat is the way to Prophethood.
He continued: If the blessed Prophet said: «أَنَا مَدِينَةُ الْعِلْمِ وَ عَلِيٌّ بَابُهَا» (I am the city of knowledge and Ali is the entrance to this city). The month that belongs to the blessed Amir Al-Momenin, is just before the month of Prophethood. There were great figures who fasted these three months consecutively. This luminous prayer, «يا مَنْ أَرْجُوهُ لِكُلِّ خَيْرٍ» "Ya man arjuho lekol' khair" is not specific to after daily prayers. it can be recited during the day and night of this month.
Referring to the prayer of the month of Rajab, His eminence continued, "Although the prayers are in the form of news sentences, but they are meant for asking Allah. In the Qur'an, he said those who are safe from divine punishment, these are unfortunate. In this Dua says: "and safe from his wrath" It is a request sentence; Allah save me from your anger and torment! «يا مَنْ أَرْجُوهُ لِكُلِّ خَيْرٍ وَ آمَنُ سَخَطَهُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ شَر»؛; O,Allah , protect me from the bitter events that happen! I mean this prayer is not specific to after daily prayers. Throughout this month, on suitable opportunities and whenever a person fills spiritual, he should whisper these prayers.
Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli, referring to the luminous narration of Imam Muhammad Baqir (P.B.U.H), pointed out the necessity of following those holy beings and stated, "Imam Baqir (P.B.U.H) was speaking in a gathering. One of the listeners said, "Wow, we have benefited from your words and they are like jewels and gold." Imam said, "Gold is just a yellow metal. because it is rare, it became the standard for exchanges. Otherwise it has no value, and it is no different from other thing. Otherwise, some metal may have more use than that. Then he said our trial with people is very difficult, because we invite them, they won't come. If we leave them alone, there is no other way for their rescue. we can't say let them so they receive the punishments for their action. This is not our mentality. This is why it is very difficult for us. We cannot say we did our duty and it is over. we feel sorry for them. Many of the situations of the Prophet and Amir al-Mu'minin (P.B.U.T) were sad for us. Even now the blessed existence of the Prophet is sad for us. It is as if a person has a child, he goes astray and he cannot leave his so he get the punishment!
Ayatollah Javadi also pointed out, "The Prophet (PBUH) said that you are our children, «أَنَا وَ عَليٌّ أَبَوَا هَذَهِ الاُمَّة» ". When we accepted Shi'ism, we accepted them as Imams, we accepted their infallibility, we became their children if he said, «أَنَا وَ عَليٌّ أَبَوَا هَذَهِ الاُمَّة», We also accepted them as imamate, well, we are their children. if we go astray, the Prophet said, it will be very sad for us. No father does not say, "Let him fall and see his punishment." This is not the case. Is not acceptable for any parents. Now Hazrat is the same for us. if we go astray, God forbid, they will be sad. they will suffer, why are we like this?! we can live in such a way that pleases them. let's turn our ignorance into rationality. There is a way for it!
