Reasons for Ghayabat (occultation) 1. If Allah had wanted, He could have overcome the enemies of Imam (ajf) and killed all the oppressors. If Allah had done this, then He would have usurped the rights of others. Allah gave humans free will. If Allah had usurped the rights of humans, then they could not be punished for their acts. The first reason ,was to give a chance to the oppressors. 2. Punishment cannot be given without a reason. For the same reasons, reward also cannot be given without any reason. The time of the ghaybat (occultation) of Imam (ajf) is a time of difficulties, troubles, and it is also a test to see who will guard the sayings of Masoomeen (as) and will show his steadfastness and stay on the straight path. The second reason for ghayabat (occultation) of Imam (ajf) is a test to see who will ignore the sayings of Masoomeen (as) and instead follow others. 3. Allah did not send His wrath upon the nation of Nuh (as) until there were no longer any momins in the generations of upcoming offspring amongst the kafirs (disbelievers). It is the same as when Moula Ali (as) killed anyone during a battle, He would look to see if there was any momins in the offspring of his enemy. If there were even one, He would not kill that person. This is the third reason of ghayabat. Until all the momin have been born from the offspring of kafirs, only then will Imam (ajf) reappear. 4. The fourth and final reason is Mashiat (will) of Allah.A new book and new sharia will be revealed through Imam Zamana (ajf) We will present five hadith in total, which we took from different editions of Bihar ul Anwar. 1. Twelfth Edition page no. 259, Imam Jafar Sadiq (as) said, “I can see Him (Imam Zamana ajf) is standing between the people at Rukn o Makam and taking their bayat (allegiance) upon His book.” 2. Twelfth Edition page no. 153, Imam Jafar Sadiq (as) said, “I can see the people of heavens are giving their bayat (allegiance) on a new amr, book, and king.” 3. Twelfth Edition page no. 347, Imam Jafar Sadiq (as) said, “Knowledge is based upon twenty-seven words. All the prophets and messengers brought only two words. All the people have knowledge of only these two words. When Imam Zamana (ajf) will reappear, He will reveal the other twenty-five words, and they will be included with the previous two words. He will spread the knowledge of all twenty-seven words.” 4. Twelfth Edition page no. 353, Imam Jafar Sadiq (as) said, “When Imam Zamana (ajf) will reappear, He will establish a new order as RasoolAllah (saw) did in the beginning of Islam.” 5. Seventh Edition page no. 117, A Christian asked Imam Musa Kazim (as) several different questions. When he received the answers, he became Muslim. One of his questions was , “Tell me about those eight words; four of which were revealed in the earth and four of which were kept hidden in the heavens. Those four which were kept hidden in the heavens, who were they revealed for and who will interpret these four words?” Imam (as) replied, “He will be Qaim e Aal e Muhammad (as) from whom these four words will be revealed. He will interpret their meanings. There will be such a revelation revealed through Him the likes of which has never been revealed through any prophet, true one (Sadiq), or any guide of the religion.”
