"Think not of those who are slain in Allah's way as dead. Nay they live finding their sustenance in the presence of their Lord."
It is advised that we get close to Allah, if we are not able to do so, then get close that are close to Allah.
They are the awliyahs,'Friends of Allah" and Imam Jaffar Sadiq is such as one.
Recently we had a majlis commemorating Imam Jaffar Sadiq on 22 Rejab.
It is narrated that Imam Jaffar Sadiq and his companions were walking in a government courtyard and overheard the conversation of two women thus;
the poor women had a husband that went away to earned some rezki, but after a long time the husband had not send home any money and no news was heard about him. Life was hard for the women.
Hearing this, Imam Jaffar Sadiq said that anyone who makes a majlis in remembering him and bake two types of bread and feed the people; that person's desire or dua's will be fulfilled. If the dua's is not fulfilled, then on the day of Qiamah that person can grab the cloak of Imam Jaffar Sadiq and asked for the dua to be fulfilled. On hearing this, the women baked two types of bread and feed the people. Soon after, by the Grace of Allah, the husband returned home with enough wealth for them to live comfortably.Note:
1. The majlis should be held on 22 Rejab and done consistently every year
2. Two types of bread baked and served to the people
3. The story of the women should be narrated to the people
