Presented by: Humaira Hydari
Key Message:
“Obedience to Allah, the Prophet, and the Imam of the time is not always easy. There will be times when our desires conflict with their commands. But when faced with such a choice, we must never forget that obedience to Allah, the Prophet, and the Imam of the time is always in our best interest.” ” This lesson simplifies the verse of obedience Surah An-Nisa (4:59):
“”O you who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger and the ūlu’l-amr from amongst you.”“
It is designed to help young members and children understand the fundamental concept of obedience to the Imam of the time. The lesson explains that divine guidance continues through the Imam of the time through the chain of the light of Imamate, starting from Prophet Muhammad and Hazrat Ali.
The concept of Light Upon Light (Surah An-Nur 24:35) illustrates the continuous divine guidance from the Imams, which leads us toward blessings.
