📕 l Today marks the birth anniversary of the 10th Imam of Ahlulbayt (A), Imam Ali al-Hadi (A), son of Imam Muhammad al-Jawad (A), and grandson of Imam Ali al-Ridha (A). He was born in Siriya, a village founded by Imam Musa al-Kazim (A) near Medina. His mother, Sayyidah Samana (Asma’), was a devout Maghrebi woman, likely from Algeria, purchased by Imam al-Jawad (A) for 70 dinars. She was praised by Imam al-Hadi (A) as a “true knower of his rights and a dweller of paradise.” He became Imam in 220 Hijri, and unlike the case of Imam al-Jawad (A), there was almost no dispute among the Shi‘a over his imamate.
Under Abbasid suppression, the Shi‘a continued to grow across Iraq, Yemen, Egypt, and beyond. Imam al-Hadi (A) maintained contact with followers via the wikala system—a network of deputies who collected khums, issued correspondence, and resolved jurisprudential issues, ensuring stability and leadership continuity.
According to Dr. Jasim al-Husayn, the wikala operated across four regions: (1) Baghdad, Mada’in, Sawad, and Kufa; (2) Basra and Ahwaz; (3) Qom and Hamadan; and (4) Hijaz, Yemen, and Egypt. The deputies played a pivotal role in reinforcing the authority of the Imam and paving the way for the leadership of his successor, especially during Abbasid restrictions on direct access.
Like earlier Imams (A), Imam al-Hadi (A) confronted ghulat (extremist sects) even among his own associates. Figures like ‘Ali b. Hasaka, teacher of Qasim al-Sha‘rani, along with al-Hasan b. Muhammad b. Baba al-Qummi and Muhammad b. Musa al-Shariqi, were associated with exaggerations. Imam al-Hadi (A) condemned these individuals for claiming divine attributes or prophetic status.
One of the most infamous ghulat was Muhammad b. Nusayr al-Numayri, founder of the Nusayriyya sect. He claimed prophethood, believed in reincarnation, same-sex marriage, and permitted incestuous unions. He alleged to be sent by Imam al-Hadi (A) as a prophet and received support from Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Hasan b. Furat. Imam al-Hadi (A) cursed him and others such as Faris b. Hatam al-Qazwini, and even sanctioned the killing of Faris, promising paradise to his killer.
Other extremists included ‘Abbas b. Sadaqa, Abu al-‘Abbas al-Tarafani, Abu ‘Abd Allah al-Kindi (Shah Ra’is), and Ahmad b. Muhammad al-Sayyari, whose views on the Qur’an were regarded as heretical. Husayn b. ‘Ubayd Allah al-Muharrar was also expelled from Qom for promoting exaggeration. These ghulat distorted core Shi‘a teachings and were firmly denounced by the Imam.
According to historical reports, Imam al-Hadi (A) was martyred by poisoning on the orders of Caliph al-Mu‘tazz al-‘Abbasi. A massive funeral procession took place. Though Imam al-Hasan al-‘Askari (A) and the Shi‘a had already prayed over his body, al-Mu‘tazz performed the funeral prayer publicly to maintain control over the narrative. The Imam was buried in the same house where he was imprisoned.

☑️ | Iran, the Resistance Axis, and all sincere and righteous individuals throughout history have endured suffering not necessarily because of wrongdoing, but because they dared to confront arrogance, expose falsehoods, and uphold truth in the face of hypocrisy. Often, those who are deeply entrenched in sectarianism, delusion, or blind allegiance whether of the Madkhali type, maslaki ideologues, or dogmatic figures react not with reason, cult members, but with personal offense, ego, and aggression.
This story attributed to Luqman al-Hakeem offers timeless insight:
Luqman the Wise once set out on a journey with his son, accompanied by their donkey.
• First, Luqman rode the donkey while his son walked beside him. When they passed through a village, people criticized:
“What kind of father is this? He rides in comfort while his child walks in the heat!”
• So Luqman got off and let his son ride instead. But as they passed another group, new voices judged:
“How disrespectful! This boy sits while his elderly father walks!”
• They then decided to ride the donkey together. Onlookers complained:
“What cruelty! Two people on one animal, have they no shame?”
• Finally, both father and son walked alongside the donkey. People burst into laughter:
“How foolish! They have a donkey and choose to walk!”
The lesson is simple but profound: No matter what you do, people will always find fault. If you ride, they’ll say you’re cruel. If your son rides, they’ll say he’s spoiled. If both ride, they’ll say you’re heartless. If neither rides, they’ll mock your intelligence.
This story shows that the human tendency to pass judgment without context, empathy, or understanding. It teaches that seeking universal approval is a futile task. Instead, we must act with sincerity, grounded values, and inner conviction, regardless of what the crowd says.
So when you face backlash for standing for truth, exposing hypocrisy, or challenging power, remember: you are not suffering because you are wrong, but because you are not conforming to what the egotistical masses want to hear.
Stay the course. Let sincerity be your standard, not public approval. And when they slander you, marginalize you, or falsely associate you with movements or agendas to discredit your voice stand firm. History honors the principled, not the popular.
...And it is the test for all who follow the path of resistance, dignity, and truth.

🇮🇷 | Iran has taken the necessary decisions that will enter into effect immediately upon the issuance of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s decision. 🔹@enemywatch
✅ | In a sudden and sharp escalation over the past few hours, Iran has announced that it has prepared plans to respond to the trajectory taken by the European Troika and the International Atomic Energy Agency. This announcement has led to growing clarity that Iran may formally enter the phase of developing nuclear weapons. In response, it appears Israel is growing desperate to retaliate, while the United States tries to portray itself as preferring negotiations and diplomacy. However, it is clearly a joint agenda between the U.S. and its proxy, Israel. There are three main reasons why Israel may consider this the ideal time to strike: first, it wants to hit before Iran can act on recently obtained intelligence; second, Netanyahu is under political pressure, and a strike may prevent the Ultra-Orthodox Haredi parties from abandoning his coalition, which could trigger snap elections; third, Israel does not want to give Iran an opening for a potential preemptive strike.
For the first time, American bases in the region have been placed on the highest alert. The UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) has issued an unusual advisory regarding the Arabian Gulf, Gulf of Oman, and the Strait of Hormuz, warning of heightened regional tensions that could escalate into military activity, directly affecting maritime operations. The U.S. State Department is preparing to order non-essential personnel to evacuate from the embassy in Baghdad, as reported by the Associated Press citing American officials. However, these developments didn’t begin today — the situation in Iraq has been tense for the past three days. Conditions have been shifting rapidly, and resistance groups have issued warnings indicating that if any Iranian centers or strategic locations are targeted, American bases inside Iraq will become the primary targets.
Meanwhile, the U.S. naval command in Bahrain, where the Fifth Fleet is stationed, has also been placed on maximum alert. Families of U.S. service members have reportedly been asked to prepare for potential evacuation. While these signs suggest a major escalation, It is quite clear that anything significant will not happen before the scheduled U.S.-Iran negotiations in Oman on Sunday. However, it is likely that Israel will wait until after the IAEA Board of Governors passes a censure resolution against Iran for non-compliance. Before launching any strike, Israel also wants Donald Trump to publicly declare that negotiations with Iran have failed. Such a statement, coupled with the IAEA resolution, would provide Israel with a stronger international justification for military action.
What would be the retaliation from Iran? Iran would not only use the leaked intelligence to target Israel’s hidden nuclear facilities, but also launch offensive strikes on bases, hideouts, and command centers across the region. It may also inflict mass casualties among enemy ranks throughout the region.

🇮🇷 Breaking — An Iranian source told Al-Mayadeen:
"Washington, under the influence of the Israeli lobby, is trying to project a state of alert at its military bases and diplomatic missions. Washington's goal is to pressure Iran to make concessions in the nuclear negotiations and accept the US proposal. Any Israeli military step against Iranian nuclear facilities will be met with an unprecedented response from Tehran."
