Becoming Distressed before the Reappearance

In the Holy Qur’an, the Almighty God says, “We shall test you with something of fear and hunger, and a decrease in goods, life and fruits. Give glad tidings to the patient.” [Qur’an 2:155] The traditions have said this verse is mainly about events before the Reappearance of the Imam of the Time (‘a.j.). The tests in this verse happen at the end of time, before the Reappearance of Imam Mahdi (‘a.j.) There are tribulations, which bring widespread fear. They cause deaths. They cause widespread financial problems. There are floods and devastation, which we can see in natural occurrences in the world. Why should these tribulations be so widespread before the Reappearance? Why should the introduction to the Reappearance be tribulations?
A very important philosophy behind this, and we can see its wisdom in this widespread disease, is that human beings should understand the need for the management of God’s Guardian for the world. People should gain preparedness and acceptance of the governance of the Guardian from God. Even the murder of one oppressed person is important for the Almighty God.
“When the buried female infant is asked for what crime she was slain.” [Qur’an 81:8-9] In the verses of the Holy Qur’an, God explicitly indicates that on the Day of Judgment He will line up billions of people. One of the key questions there is about for what crime that child was slain. This shows how important oppression is for the God of the universe. We human beings easily pass by oppression. We easily pass over the bombing of the oppressed people of Yemen. We easily pass over these. But, the Almighty God doesn’t pass over these. Understanding the necessity of the guardianship of the “Great Guardian from God” is not easy for many people, unless they understand the necessity of the guardianship of the “Great Guardian from God” with these widespread tribulations.
Yes, the believers and knowledgeable people understand this necessity when they see one oppression somewhere. In the same way that we feel the need for the existence of the Imam because of this disease, they feel the same amount of need when they see ignorance in the world. In addition to the believers, how can the public understand this necessity? This is not something simple. This is why with widespread tribulations people must understand the necessity of the presence of the “Great Guardian from God” in the world and his governance. In the same amount that we deprive people from knowledge and spreading knowledge about the necessity of the governance of the Guardian from God, these tribulations will come instead.

Do we want these tribulations to be less? We should look at the philosophy behind tribulations. The philosophy of tribulations is nothing but for people to understand that the management of the world by these corrupt people is impossible. What should we do for this oppression to be eliminated? The Guardian from God should become the ruler. The “Great Guardian from God” should govern the world.
