In this chapter the respected author mentions eight occasions associated with Imam Mahdi ( May Allah hasten his reappearance ). In this excerpt we will briefly cover four of these occasions.

*1. Night of Grandeur ( Shab-e-Qadr)*

It is the night showing respect, honor, greatness and majesty of Imam Asr (a.s.) due to the descent of the Angel Ruh and and other angels on His Eminence.

As it has come in previous chapters that supplications must first be performed for the Imam of the time and then for ourselves. Hence it has been recommended to recite the supplication of _Allahumma Kulle Waliyekal.._ in these nights especially the 23rd night.

*2. Day of Friday*

The day of Friday has special significance with Imam Mahdi (a.t.f.s.). It was on the day of Friday that Imam was born and it is highly probable that the re-appearance will also take place on Friday. Moreover there are traditions where each day is associated with some or the other Masoom (a.s.). The day of Friday is associated with Imam-e-Zamana (a.t.f.s). There are many supplications to be performed on this day like

a. Ziyarat of Imam
b. Dua Nudba
c. Reciting Salawat with Wa Ajjil Farajahum

*3. Day of Aashura*

It was on the Day of Aashura that Imam (a.s.) was bestowed with the title of _Qaem_ by Almighty Allah. In the book Kaameluz Ziyaaraat, the author has brought a tradition from Imam Jafer Sadiq (a.s.) which is as follows :

After Husain’s martyrdom, angels arrived weeping and said:

_O Lord! This chosen one of Yours is Husain, the chosen son of Your Messenger’s daughter. In response to these words of the angels, Allah Almighty raised the holy shadow of the Qaaem Aale Muhammad and said: I will take the revenge of Husain through this hand._

Hence on this day, after completing the usual rituals of Ziyarat and prayers,we should beseech the Almighty Allah to hasten the reappearance of Imam Qaaem (a.s.) so that he may avenge the blood of Imam Husain (a.s.)

*4. Period when the Sun becomes yellow till sunset*

Like the days, the hours in the day are also associated with each Imam. The twelfth hour of the day is associated with Imam Mahdi (a.t.f.s). The author brings two supplications that can be recited in this hour. Interested readers can refer to the book.

Insh'Allah in the next excerpt we will cover the other four occasions.

*O Allah give us tawfeeq that we may remember our Imam at all times especially these times which are attributed to him.*
