how many years we must live?" taken from the afore‐said magazine: 'Hufland in his book "The artof living a long‐life" says: ‐ Truly ‐ is born while (from the view ‐ point of structural form andphysical powers) being ready and capable of remaining alive for two centuries.Thereafter he writes: Hufland is not the only one to have expressed this view. Rather all thosewho have been teaching the subject of 'Nature' have believed in the afore‐said view. Moreoverthe discussion of "possibility of long‐life" is the most sparkling discussion amongst them.Hassan Askari‐ibn‐Ali Hadi‐ibn‐Muhammad Jawad‐ibn‐Ali... just as it was previously mentionedtoo.Thirdly, Mahdi was born on the day, which we have previously mentioned and Imam HassanAskari had no son other than Mahdi. Rather he is the only child of his father.Now that you have become aware of these points we say: We are having with ourselves reasons,which prove that Mahdi is alive and is being given sustenance. For an impartial person suffices it isfor him to refer to only one of them:First: Basically, what is deemed to be expedient is this that Mahdi is alive. This is because we aresure about his birth but doubt his death. Not even one authentic and reliable person has narratedanything about Mahdi's demise. The only thing which can be seen in the expressions of some ofthe deniers is certain improbabilities and the point that how it is or would be possible for Mahdito live such a long life.Verily, whatsoever I reviewed the sayings of reliable traditionists, historians and genealogists Icould not find in their sayings any stipulation about the demise of Mahdi. Thus it is not right onour part to pass judgement about Mahdi's death after knowing for sure that he is living. ThatMahdi's long life is merely uncustomary and unusual does not recommend us to give up ourprevious firm belief thus it is fair to say that the one who believes in Mahdi's death is compelledto produce evidences as against the saying of the one who says:Mahdi is alive and is being given sustenance. However, even if we assume that evidences can beproduced yet one cannot pass judgement on Mahdi's demise. Rather one is forced to oppose toevidence with views, which are stronger from the view ‐ point of reference and more manifestsfrom the view‐point of denotation.Second: When Mahdi's birth is proved, there remains no alternative but to accept one of thefollowing two affairs: We either accept that Mahdi (A.S.) is alive and continues to live like all otherhuman‐beings until the time when <strong>All</strong>ah shall command him to emerge or on the basis of what isin wont, believe that he has died and <strong>All</strong>ah by His Power shall make him alive at the appointedPresented by http://www.alhassanain.com & http://www.islamicblessings.com
