But look at the bright side of shia ahadith of super natural capabilities of the Imam.anajmi wrote:Have you seen the movie "Braveheart"? In that William Wallace has been fighting a covert war with the English for some time. One day, he makes an appearance on the battlefield in front of his countrymen about to go into battle with the British Army.that's what i was about to tell him (except about the shooting of the bolts).
He announces - "I am William Wallace".
One of the soldier in the army says - "You can't be. William Wallace is 7 feet tall".
To this Mel Gibson's William Wallace responds - "Yes, I've heard. Kills men by the hundreds. And if HE were here, he'd consume the English with fireballs from his eyes, and bolts of lightning from his arse.! I am William Wallace."
This will deter the any person to claim Imam to do mischief / perversity.
Example of of Musa Kadhim challenging Abdullah Aftah to jump into the fire, and if nothing happens to him, then he is the true Imam.
Khadhim Al Mahdi wrote:I have come across another incident in which Imam Al kadhim [as] invited him and asked him to jump in the fire because if he truly was an Imam then no harm would have befell him, yet he did not jump.
