RNA – Speaking on a live television program about Du’a al-Nudbah (al-Nudbah Supplication) ‎which was broadcast from the Holy Shrine of Hadhrat Abdul-Adhim al-Hasani in Rey, ‎Ayatollah Kazem Seddiqi, the custodian of Tehran’s Imam Khomeyni Seminary, said, ‎‎“Ramadan is a month of self-improvement, prayer and the feast of the divine saints.”‎

The temporary Friday prayer leader of Tehran added, “The virtues of the holy month of ‎Ramadan compared to other days is so great that man isn’t able to understand it. According ‎to the explicit narrations, the difference between the holy month of Ramadan and other days ‎is the same as the difference between Ahl al-Bayt and the people.”‎

He further stated, “The flood of wisdom, knowledge and wonders flowed from Imam Ali and ‎there was no knowledge and wisdom that reached the height of the peak of knowledge of ‎Imam Ali and the saints of God in the world. No one can compare the past and the future ‎with the family of Muhammad.”‎

Ayatollah Seddiqi continued, “Therefore, just as the inner majesty of Imam Ali is a ‎manifestation, a sign of God and a manifestation of all the attributes of the beauty and glory ‎of God, the holy month of Ramadan is also a manifestation of God Almighty, a piece of ‎heaven on earth and a vessel of the revelation of the Holy Quran.” ‎

His Eminence stated that on Laylat al-Qadr (the Night of Power), all of the angels descend on ‎the heart of wilayah (guardianship) and said, “Ramadan is the time of the revolution of souls ‎and the evolution of souls. Man must make the most of these blessings, graces and mercies ‎of the holy month of Ramadan.”‎

Ayatollah Seddiqi said that the reason for the delay in the reappearance of Imam al-Mahdi is ‎considered to be the lack of love, affection and affection for Imam al-Mahdi and said, “Man ‎must dedicate his whole existence to Imam al-Mahdi and the true essence of the holy month ‎of Ramadan is to find the truth of guardianship.”‎
