313 Momins?
313 Momins?
Hi. I heard in a recent Farman by SMS that unless if there are 330 (i think) Momins, the world will perish? Can someone please check that out for me- I may have misunderstood it because the Farman was in gujrati. If that is what the Imam said, I wanted to know why can't there be more or less Momins than 330?

A Nabi/Prophet who is a preacher with a divine mission. He receives a revelation from God that concerns either him, or a small issue or group.
A Rasul/Messenger is all of the above, except that he is given a specific Message as a Scripture, which he must reveal to his entire community.
Then there is a Natiq, all of the above, but he proclaims a complete religious law (Shariah) which is valid for about 1000 years more or less. During this period, all the other Prophets and Messengers base their mission on his teachings. There have been 6 Natiqs in this age:
Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad.
It is said that the last Imam of a cycle is the 7th Natiq, because he superceddes and reveals the inner meanings of all previous revelations, but declares no new shariah.

Well,
During the Cycle of Prophethood, the Speaking Prophets lay down a Shariah. They must establish the positive, or exoteric religion.
In the Cycle of Imamat, the Shariah has been laid down. In this cycle, the Most Pure Imams must interpret the Shariah for the believers. The Imam also establishes a spiritual order where souls are initiated into a esoteric path or tariqa. Each soul receives talim from the Imam according to their own capacity. Those who want Shariah, they will remain on Shariah. However, for those who wish to go beyond the Shariah, the Imam leads them through.
It is said at the end of the age, there will come an Imam who will consumate all previous revelations. He will reveal the true meaning or the haqiqat behind all previous Revelations. This event may take place on an individual level of a person, the community level of all Ismailies (like it did in 1164 at Alamut), or even at a global level, when the Imam manifests himself to the world. In this sense, Imam is called the 7th Natiq, because the final consumation of the age is the work of an Imam, a Silent One, but he will proclaim the spiritual truths, so he is called a Natiq.

I understand that Nabi and Rasool is same thing and there were 313 Nabi/Rasool. The Office is known as Nabuwat (Nabuwah) or Risalat.
Then Prophet And messanger is the same thing and there were 124000 Prophet/Messenger. In Urdu and Gujrati, we call as Paigamber (the word originate from Paigam means message).

Regarding bigger cycle of 7000 years, I woulk like to explain something.
One day of Religion is equivelent to 1000 years of world. Therefore one week of religion is 7000 years. Out of this seven day, only one day is called Yaum-e-Deen (Day of religion)and that is Rauze Shamba means Saturday. ( Why Saturday because Sunday is the first day of week and Saturday is the last one). And on that day i,e the last day, Imam manifests himself. The remaining six days are called Lailatul Deen ( Night of Religion). Just like night becomes veil for the sun of the day, the Shariah of Prophet becomes veil against the menifestation of Imam. Just like moon takes the light from the sun and send it to the world, Hujjat/ Prophet takes the message from revealed Imam and send it to the people.

Actually there is an esoteric meaning of 313 momin. and I do not want to mention here publicly as I understand that there are few non-Ismailis who see this site. I will quote one Farman Of S.M.S and we should think of its inner meaning and that is also about 313 momin. " 313 Haqiqati ek dil thai ane saanp jevi aql raakhi kabooter jeva garib thai tiyare zahhorat thashaiy."means when 313 haqiqati become one-hearted, have an intellect like snake and be humble like pigeon, He menifests (Zahhorat).

Acutally,
Nabi is the Arabic word for Prophet. The Hebrew word for Prophet is very similar to Nabi.
Rasul is the Arabic word for Messenger.
124,000 Prophets were sent to the world. 313 were Messengers, also called Envoys.
Rank of Imamat encompasses and is beyond all Prophets/Messengers. That is why Imam can also take on the function of Messengership and deliver a message to a particular community. eg: Hazrat Ismael in Arabia, Shri Ram, Shri Krishna in India.
Angels can also be Messenger, because they deliver Message to a Prophet. A Messenger has to deliver the Divine Message to an entire community, while a Prophet may only have to deliver to his family, or only himself.
What you said about 7000 year week of religion is indeed correct.
However, it does not turn out exactly like dat.
only 600 years pass between Jesus and Muhammad's Shariah.
currently, almost 1400 years have passed from Muhammad's mission.
Qiyamat al-Qubra was declared in 1164, approx 500 years after Muhammad.

In my REC class, one of my students vaguely mentioned that during the term of every 7th Imam, something grand happens..I was reminded of this because ya'll mentioned earlier that a small cycle consists of 7 Imams- does this have anything to do with the prior statement?
Alinizar, is there any way you could send me a private message explaining the esoteric meaning of having 313 momins?

Hi, Can someone please explain what is Qiyamat al-Qubra. I dont know anything abt it. Infact I am hearing this name for the first time.<BR>Thanks.<BR>
Re: 330 Momins?
The exact Firman is: "There are always 313 true believers in this world. The world would not exist without these 313 true momins" (Majewdi, 27/12/1893).nargisk3 wrote:Hi.

This is a very profound Firman and I have reflected a great deal upon it. It says a lot about the relationship between man and creation and it also alludes to the potential of an elevated soul to influence creation. To me it does not matter how many. What is important is that the universe is sustained by a few elevated souls. In this regard Mowlana Sultan Muhammad Shah says the following in his memoirs.
"Islam acknowledges the existence of angels, of great souls who have developed themselves to the highest possible planes of the human soul and higher, and who are centres of the forces which are scattered throughout the Universe".
I have heard that..
<P>At o­ne time SMS had sid that give me 11 true momins and I'll rule the world. Back to the forms at hand, it is belived that the 51st Imam will proclaim the spiritual truths. The name/title of the Imam has also been mentioned to be Qayam.</P>
The 313 momims balance out the sins of the world. You can not have more then 313 momins. You will have one who is above all of them after him/her you will have the Pir and then you will have the Imam. If the 313 were not in existence then we would all parish becuase of the amount of sins which we commint. It is said that the 313 momins do not know each other and the day that they come to realize who they are and meet with each other is the day when the world will come to realize who Hazar Imam is. It is said that it is still another 110-113 years away.
This is interesting! Where is it said?aminL wrote: It is said that the 313 momins do not know each other and the day that they come to realize who they are and meet with each other is the day when the world will come to realize who Hazar Imam is.

What is the authenticity of your statement. If 313 momin balance out the sin of the world then what Imam is doing. What do you mean by 313 momins. If there is always 313 momins then nobody try to become momin as it will imbalance the figure of 313. If 313 momin do not know each other then it is no use to say them "momin". We are Ismaili and are related to the esoteric version of Islam so we should think in a rational way or give the reference of Ginan or Firman to justify our statement.aminL wrote:The 313 momims balance out the sins of the world.

Please don't take it wrong. It's just advise.

While the number seven bears a great deal of significance in our tradition an aspect of which you have alluded to, there is no relationship with the 313 momins that have been quoted by MSMS in his Farman. The Imam is quite clear about 313 momins. If the Imam said the number 313 is significant, then one could perhaps make the kind of interpretation that you have made. But the Imam is quite clear that 313 refers to 313 momins and nothing else.
Some interesting information regarding the number 313...
According to
http://www.fabonline.com/topics/article ... lMahdi.htm
"The Imam will then escape from Medina to Makka. He will be wearing
Prophet Muhammad's (s.a.w.) turban, Prophet Musa's walking stick, Imam
Ali's sword - Thulfiqar, and Prophet Sulaiman's (a.s.) ring until his
313 followers will be gathered there for him. But do we know who
these 313 helper will be. Imam Ali (a.s.) said that when the 'Qa'em
of the Family line of Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) will emerge, Allah is
going to gather together the inhabitants of the East and West. His
companions will be from Kufa and the brave ones who would assist him
would be from Syria."
According to this Ithnashari site
http://www.iranian.com/Arts/1999/October/Time/
"According to Shi'ite Islam, the 12th descendant of Prophet Mohammad
went into hiding when he was a child, some 1,300 years ago. Shi'ites
believe he will reappear when the world has become full of corruption
and tyranny. He will choose 313 disciples and lead an insurrection
which will replace tyranny with the most just government ever. They
refer to him as Imam Zaman - Lord of All Ages."
According to
http://www.sol.com.au/kor/13_02.htm
"Imam Ja'far recounting a vision he had about the coming of Mahdi says
that at one moment, "9000 angels descend from the sky and then 313
more angels (the first), those who accompanied Noah in the Ark, and
Abraham when he was thrown into the fire, and Moses when the seas of
the ocean were parted for him, and with Jesus when he was lifted up by
God to be with Him".
The number of Companions of Qa'im–Mahdi (ashab al –Qa'im), "the men of
sincerity" (ahl al–ikhlas), "the sincere devotees" (al–khullas) is, as
the number of fighters of Badr, 313. Each one of these 313 companions
carries a sword on which is written "a thousand words, each one giving
access to a thousand more." At the moment of the Advent, these 313 men
will be dispersed in different parts of the world.
Says the Koran: "Surpass yourselves in doing good works, wherever you
may be God will gather you all together." (Q.II, alBagara/148)
The fifth Imam says: good works (al–kayrat). This is the faithful love
towards the Imam (al–walaya), "where ever you may be God will gather
you all together," describes the Companions of Qa'im, the 313 who will
gather together within one hour just as the clouds rush together in
Autumn. (al–Kulayni, al–Rawda, II/45)"
According to
http://www.ummah.net/khoei/imam.htm
"Hazrat Isa (Jesus), Hazrat Khizr, Hazrat Ilias, and Hazrat Idris
(a.s) will give allegiance to the Imam when he re-appears. Also
Jibrael will announce 313 companions of the Imam. These 313 companions
will be people of eminent piety, great knowledge and absolutely
steadfast in their determination and faith towards the Imam. Another
1000 people will be in the army of the Imam. These people will fight
battles and kill enemies like Dajal, who will appear from India. Dajal
will have the musical tunes with him. Then the Imam will lead the
prayers, Hazrat Isa (a.s) will be behind him."
According to
http://www.almuntazar.com/view.php?arti ... ab68a9e1d4
"When the reappearance of Imam (a.t.f.s.) will be decreed, he will
emerge and initiate the process of reformation of the world. Imam
(a.t.f.s.) along with his band of 313 loyalists, who will form the
core group of his army, will accept the allegiance from the people
between Maqame Ibrahim and Rukne Yamani in the precincts of Masjidul
Haraam. The first words that Imam (a.t.f.s.) will utter will be the
86th verse of Surah Hud. Imam Baqir (a.s.) says:
`When our Qaim will reappear, he will recline against the wall of Holy
Kaaba. Among his followers, 313 men will assemble around him. The
first words that he will speak will be the holy verse, 'What remains
with Allah is better for you if you are believers…' Then he will say,
I am the 'Remnant of Allah' (Baqiyatullah) and His Caliph and His
Hujjat. At that moment everyone will address Imam (a.t.f.s.) thus -
Peace be on you O Remnant of Allah in His Earth.'"
