The Celestial Shout: A Factual Study
Sheikh Husain Al-Asady
Translated by: Mujtaba Al-Helu
The subject of Imam Al-Mahdi (P.B.U.H) is a pivotal matter to all intellectual fields, conquering a central position in various studies.
The great account of narrations that reached to us paved the way to a better understanding of the day of the holy Debut. The signs of Debut are central to identifying the Promised Day. Among these inevitable signs is the Celestial Shout, after which, the holy Debut shall take place.
There are various descriptions of the Celestial Shout, such as its source being from the sky by Gabriel, or it shall reach to every living ear in a frightening manner, to the extent that even a decent virgin girl shall rise in fear, or it will disturb a deep sleep. Its distinct feature is that it will be understood by all humans without the need of interpretation.
The query might rise about the last point that how might humans perceive its meaning at once? Is it a special kind of language? Will the humans of the time be so developed that they understand any language without any assisting interpretation? Shall this communication be a sort of divine miracle?
Thus, this research studies all the possible answers that are related to these queries.
