If it was not for this hope and anticipation there would be no purpose in looking forward to the future. Life for such a person would lack goal and meaning.<br \/>\nTo await and to act go hand in hand, and do not separate. Anticipation is the cause of acting and movement. The value for the actual purpose of anticipation also gives importance to the anticipation itself. Furthermore, one may become familiar with the value of people through the anticipations they hold:<br \/>\n\u2022 Ones\u2019 goal and anticipation may be to receive an increase in salary by the end of the year.<br \/>\n\u2022 Another anticipates reaching the end of his studies, receiving a degree, which would allow him to find a suitable job.<br \/>\n\u2022 Some other anticipates improving his status, so he could marry and begin a family to take him out of his lonely status.<br \/>\n\u2022 Another person waits to increase his salary so he could buy a bigger house, a better car, and so forth. Or if he is very generous he may want to get a raise in his salary so he could build hospitals, mosques, schools, libraries, etc.<br \/>\n\u2022 Another may be waiting to win some sort of auction or contest.<br \/>\nIn general, everyone is waiting: the businessman, the manufacturer, the farmer, the teacher, the parents, even the societies, the people, and the countries are all waiting.<br \/>\n\u2022 The rich regimes\u2019 goals are to increase their powers so they can control the world through cruelty.<br \/>\n\u2022 The communist regimes anticipate controlling the world through poverty, wars, and racial discriminations.<br \/>\nThe Holy Quran draws our attention to this fact in this verse, \u201cEvery one is awaiting, therefore do await.\u201d1<br \/>\nIf anticipation is taken away from Man, the continuation of life would be meaningless and boring for him. It is anticipation that gives life meaning and pleasure. Therefore the world, the societies, and the people are anticipators as long as they have not entered the downfall to destruction and non-existence; and they should in fact be anticipators.<\/h4>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Islam and Anticipation<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nIn all areas, Islam bases its teachings and guidance on deep philosophical and sociological issues. It views anticipation and waiting as a major pillar for an Islamic society. Furthermore, Islam views waiting for a better future, the victorious conquer age, and relief, the cause of the existence of the society, the motive for positive actions, the stimulator of emotions and as a whole the best of the acts. Even the Great leader of Islam, Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.) has introduced the waiting for relief (Faraj) as the best deed of his community.2<br \/>\nBased on this, the Muslims in general, especially the Shiites are waiting for the world to be filled with knowledge and justice, monotheism and faith, equality and brotherhood by the leader whom the Quran and hundreds of authentic narrations have promised his return. With his return, he will spread the monotheistic faith in the east and west. He will come to establish one community, one government, one law, and one system to unite and connect all people all around the world.<br \/>\nBased on the extensive research in history, philosophy of religions, the Holy Quran, and the narrations the concept of awaiting has played a crucial role in the survival of the previous religions. Similarly the concept of awaiting is what has kept the Muslim society alive as well.<\/h4>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>A Broader View<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nBy first stating the anticipations of the other people, we will compare the anticipations of the Muslims, especially the Shiites.<br \/>\n\u2022 When both the East and West await a day they can defeat their rival, and take over the world \u2026<br \/>\n\u2022 When large companies await a day they can defeat all other companies and gain the best economy\u2026<br \/>\n\u2022 And when aimless people stand in lines outside the discos and bar cafes, with this hope to be let in\u2026<br \/>\nIn this moment a Muslim anticipates and awaits a day where the world will be ruled under the true flag of justice and truth. In this Global Islamic Society the commands of Allah (SWT) will be executed, and all injustices will be destroyed and removed. Muslims await a day when poverty and ignorance will be removed from the societies. They await a day when a perfect government is established and pious people gain control. They await a day where geographical differences, national differences, religious differences, and false regimes are destroyed.<br \/>\nThis is the view and hope of the Muslims that desires goodness, freedom, equality, knowledge, peace, and comfort for all people.<br \/>\nThis anticipation strengthens the person, and makes him brave, independent. This anticipation is not just a word to be said, it is an act, it is a revolution, and it is patience along with strength.<br \/>\n(Selection taken from the book \u201cImamah and Mahdawiyat\u201d by Ayatullah Saafi Golpaygani)<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Footnotes:<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">1- The Holy Quran (20:135)<br \/>\n2- Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.) said, \u201cThe best deed of my community is to await the relief (Faraj).\u201d (Tuhaf al-Uqul from the Great Prophet, p.37)<\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/shiastudies.com\">http:\/\/shiastudies.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A person is indebted to the blessing of hope and  anticipation in his social and personal life.
