Introductions; Proof; The Book of God; Guidance on some verses of the Quran
God introduces, in the verse 46 of Surah Al-Baqarah, the humble individuals as those who have conjecture on meeting their God and returning to Him. Whereas, according to the saying of his Excellency[1], achieving certainty in religion is obligatory, and according to the verses that are mentioned repeatedly in the book[2], conjecture has no place in Islam. Please explain how these two come together?

Beliefs; Cognition of the Caliphs of God; Mahdi; Mansoor and his movement to prepare the ground for the advent of Mahdi; Actions and goals
According to the rule which Allamah may God protect him has mentioned regarding the advent of Imam Mahdi, that his advent does not require the gathering of all people and requires the gathering of a sufficient number of them, some questions have arisen for me, which are as follows: 1. Is the quantity and quality of this sufficient number known for him or is its knowledge with God? 2. Did this sufficient number not exist in the time of the caliphs of the past? Given that the caliphs of the past had a large force at times in history, for example, Imam Ali in Siffin had about 130,000 men, Imam Hassan in the war with Mu‘awiya had about 12,000 men, Imam Hussain in Kufa had about 18,000 men, Imam Sadiq during the Khorasani uprising had about 100,000 Khorasanis who wanted him to rise up, even during the absence of Imam Mahdi, the Shia community got organized and ready for the advent many times, for example, during the Safavid period, waiting and readiness for the advent were high, to the point that the great scholars of the Shia such as Majlisi and others, believed it was time for the advent and the Safavid were preparers of the ground for the advent; because most of the narrations corresponded to the conditions of their time, but it did not happen. With this introduction, please explain where the problem were and what were the shortcomings that the Imams of Ahl al-Bayt did not achieve their goals? 3. Do we not have the shortcomings of the past? 4. What is so special about our generation that did not exist in them, while they seem to be better than us physically and mentally? Considering the difficult conditions and the complexity of the situation and our physical and mental weakness that have been created over time, we need God’s special grace as well as Imam Mahdi’s special attention may we be his sacrifice in order to provide a sufficient number of helpers who have not any equals in the pas eras. From every side I went, I gained nothing but terror I seek refuge from this desert and the infinite path I lost my way in this dark night Oh you the guidance star, rise from a corner[1]

Beliefs; Cognition of the Caliphs of God; The Prophets
1- From page 250 to page 253 [of the book “Return to Islam”] the infallibility of the Prophets is discussed. The Imamiyyah Shia consider the Prophets infallible from any kind of mistake or sin, either major or minor, intentionally or inadvertently, before and after the prophecy, and consider the mentioned cases about sin or their honors asking forgiveness from the kind of failure to do the better. What is his honor’s opinion about this belief? 2- In page 252, it is mentioned about Prophet David (peace be upon him) having ninety-nine wives, asked his brother to divorce his only wife in order to marry her. The question that rises is how can an infallible Prophet have such a request from his brother?! What is the justification for such an action?!  It is not mentioned like this in the Shia’s commentaries, but it is quoted by Imam Reza (peace be upon him) that his Excellency David (peace be upon him), since those two persons came up from the wall of his house and quickly came to him for judgment, became anxious and although he made a right judgment, he did not follow the principles of judgment due to the anxiety and uneasiness, meaning he questioned the accused and did not ask any question from the claimer. As a result, having noticed such an issue, he asked forgiveness. Please explain more about this issue.

Introductions; The intellect
His Excellency Allamah Khorasani in page 28 of the book “Return to Islam” has interpreted the heart in the sense of the very intellect. The question is that what is the difference between the Quranic words «فؤاد, قلب and لب»? Why the heart has been interpreted as intellect?

Beliefs; Cognition of the Caliphs of God; Mahdi; Mansoor and his movement to prepare the ground for the advent of Mahdi; Sayings and writings
This book has introduced the pure Islam using reliable texts such as the Quran and mutawatir Hadiths from the perspective of its erudite author, and also addresses current issues in Islamic countries, and in this respect, it has a political and governmental perspective as well. Therefore, I ask you to answer the following questions: 1. In the opinion of Allamah Mansoor Hashemi Khorasani, what kind of government should be formed in an Islamic country with certain borders, such as Iran, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia or any other country, to be considered religious and Islamic? In other words, I would like to know the opinion of Islam in this regard. 2. This scholar encourages those who like him to migrate toward him. Does he want to form a government, a party, an organization, or something like that? Has Imam Mahdi authorized the formation of such a group and government and perhaps an uprising during his absence or not? What are your reasons? 3. Is it possible to form a religious government during Mahdi’s absence or not?

Rulings; The ancillaries
I have some questions: 1 . if Zakat was to be forbidden for Bani Hashim, would God not emphasize on it in the Quranic verses? This family did not accept Zakat in the beginning era of Islam, was that not a sign of their piety and contentment? 2 . Prove that the three-sixth of the Khums which is given to orphans and the needy and wayfarers, all of them must be from the Hashemi’s family. 3 . Is paying Khums and Zakat in accordance with other Quranic judicial commands whose establishments are contingent upon rulership of Caliph of God on earth?

I have questions that I present in short: 1. Where does this scholar work or teach? 2. I do not make any judgment about him, but would it not have been better if you had published a photo of him and more information about his biography and personal descriptions? Speaking vaguely and working secretly do not solve a problem. 3. If someone wants to directly know about his biography, manners, and descriptions, what should he do?

After I studied the book “Return to Islam”, I have become very precise with narrations, such that whenever I confront a narration, I think it may be Wahid or incorrect. Please guide me.

When we saw your black flags emerged in Khorasan in order to prepare the ground for the advent of Mahdi and learned about your invitation toward his government apart from that of other people, we were reminded of the words of the Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him and his family: «إذا رأيتم الرايات السود قد أقبلت من خراسان فأتوها ولو حبوًا على الثلج، فإنّ أصحابها يسألون الحقّ فلا يعطونه، ثمّ يسألونه فلا يعطونه، فيقاتلون فينصرون، فيعطون ما سألوه، فيؤدّونه إلى المهديّ» which means, “When the black flags set off from Khorasan, rush toward them, even though by crawling on snow; for their owners will ask for the truth, but it will not be given to them, then they will ask for it again, but it will not be given to them, then they will fight and win, and what they asked for will be given to them, then they will hand it over to Mahdi”, and in another narration: «تجيء رايات سود من قبل المشرق كأنّ قلوبهم زبر الحديد، فمن سمع بهم فليأتهم، ولو حبوًا على الثلج، فإنّهم أنصار المهديّ في آخر الزمان، يوطّئون له سلطانه» which means, “Black flags will come from the East, as if their hearts are pieces of iron; so whoever hears of them should rush toward them, even though by crawling on snow; for they are the helpers of Mahdi in the end time, who will prepare the ground for his rule”. We hope you are them.

I have read the book Return to Islam by His Excellency Khorasani and found it to be a very useful book. I do not doubt that he has high scholarly degrees; since it is clear that understanding these precise and profound scholarly points that he has explained in his book is not possible except for those who have a place in knowledge, but please state the name of the university or religious school from which he has graduated; because no matter how much I searched, I did not find his name nor his fame as a well-known writer, researcher, or religious man in Afghanistan.

Introductions; Knowledge; The necessity and method of gaining knowledge (ijtihad)
In the book Return to Islam, His Excellency Allamah Mansoor has said that ijtihad is obligatory for every Muslim, while every human being has a unique aspiration and talent. Some have an aspiration and talent for medicine, some for engineering, and some for another work; therefore, it is impossible for them to practice ijtihad in religion. So what should one who does not have an aspiration and talent for practicing ijtihad do? Is it not permissible for him to imitate one of the mujtahids?

Beliefs; Cognition of the Caliphs of God; Mahdi; Mansoor and his movement to prepare the ground for the advent of Mahdi; Actions and goals
I glanced through the book Return to Islam in the hope of finding a positive solution, but what I found was only denying others! After all these writing and generalities, the author has not specified the duty of Muslims in the age of absence that what they must do in the end. Should they give up everything, begin sit-down protests, go on strike, and announce that they will not end them until Mahdi appears and takes over the government?! If Mansoor Khorasani is supposed to take over the affairs of Muslims now, what is his practical plan for managing Islamic societies?! Another problem is that it seems Mansoor too, like others, has invited people toward himself, while in the book he has clearly declared the falsity of whoever invites people toward himself, and stated that Mahdi is the only one who is allowed to invite people toward himself, and this itself means that there is a dead end in the nation of the end time, which contradicts the perfection of Islam. Indeed, there is no imaginable way to achieve the government of God on the earth before the government of Mahdi, peace be upon him, except for the government of the Islamic jurist, as it exists in Iran, with all its flaws and shortcomings.

Introductions; Knowledge; Attributes and duties of scholars
Thank you for your answers dear sirs and I must say your answers have been great and have showed us the right path. My question is that Khorasani has emerged and is among us by now and also has written a book, so Yamani and Sufiani should also be among us; Because all these signs will occur in one year, even in [one] month and if Khorasani has emerged, so why Mujtahids of Iran and Afghanistan and other Islamic countries do not announce his coming that sir Khorasani has gotten started himself and has started his activity in the field of taking allegiance from people? The only work that you personages can do is to just make Badā certain in the advent of Imam Mahdi peace be upon him... Please give a convincing answer to my question and I am waiting for it.

I read the book of this great and unknown scholar entirety and read some parts of it twice. If I want to have a detailed description of it and not be accused of exaggeration, I must say that it was lower than the words of the Prophet and his family and higher than the words of others! In my opinion, such a book is not appreciated in our society so soon, and it will take a long time to be understood properly. Of course, this is also due to the weakness of your advertising; because a lot of people do not really know about this book yet and have not heard of it. You have to make the voice of this dear teacher of ours heard by people and inform them much more. I myself came across this book by chance, although I think it was God’s grace and was not accidental. Anyway, it is your duty to make people aware of the existence of this epistemological treasure in this time of ignorance and unawareness, and this amount of your propaganda is not enough at all. You have the most valuable product, but your marketing is weak. You have the best idea, but you cannot propound it well. This is very unfortunate!
