By God, he is al-Sadiq (the Truthful One) \u2013 the one whom the <a href=\"https:\/\/imam-us.org\/islamic-awareness\/islam-101\/beliefs\/ahl-al-bayt\/prophetmuhammad\/\">Messenger of God<\/a> (Prophet Muhammad) described to us (in prophecy). Indeed, his followers are aided (by God) in this world and in the Hereafter\u2026\u201d[i]<\/p>\n<p>Imam al-Baqir was referring to the sixth immaculate Imam \u2013 Ja\u2019far al-Sadiq. Under this Imam\u2019s guidance, the Shia school became widely-known. Imam Ja\u2019far al-Sadiq also taught the teachers of various schools of thought which developed in later generations.<\/p>\n<p>Imam Ja\u2019far al-Sadiq lived in the transition period between the corrupt \u2018Umayyad and the tyrannical Abbasid governments. The unique political circumstances at that time helped limit the extent of persecution which the Imam and his followers were subjected to. Thus, Imam al-Sadiq instructed the Shia to take advantage of the situation by increasing their educational and academic activities throughout the Muslim world.[ii]<\/p>\n<p>It was in recognition of this infallible Imam that the term&nbsp;<em>Ja\u2019fari&nbsp;<\/em>refers to the Shia school of thought. Imam Ja\u2019far al-Sadiq used to tell his companions, \u201cWhen the man among you is conscious in regard to his faith, is honest in his words, delivers the trusts (to their rightful owners), perfects his manners with people, it will be said, \u2018He is Ja\u2019fari (a follower of Ja\u2019far),\u2019 and that would bring joy to me. But if (the man among you) is (in a condition) other than this, his ordeal and disgrace would (falsely) become attributed to me, when it is said that, \u2018these are the manners of Ja\u2019far\u2026\u2019\u201d[iii]<\/p>\n<h2>The Sixth Imam<\/h2>\n<p>During the sixth Imam\u2019s time, various ideologies emerged. While some of these schools remained within the folds of Islam, others were blatantly at odds with core principles of the Islamic faith. But each school had the freedom to make its case and defend its ideas.<\/p>\n<p>The Islamic university that had been developing during the fifth Imam\u2019s days was now coming to complete fruition with Imam al-Sadiq\u2019s guidance. This great school quickly became the hub of academic discourse for over four thousand students whose thirst for knowledge was quenched by none other than Imam Ja\u2019far al-Sadiq. The sixth Imam\u2019s lessons ranged from the sciences of Qur\u2019an and Prophetic tradition to chemistry, as witnessed by his student and renowned chemist Jabir ibn Hayyan.&nbsp;[iv],&nbsp;[v]<\/p>\n<p>The famous Abu Hanifah, head of the Hanafi School in jurisprudence, used to say,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have not seen (anyone) more knowledgeable than Ja\u2019far, son of Muhammad.\u201d[vi]<\/p>\n<p>As another example, Malik, head of the Maliki School in jurisprudence once said:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI used to frequent Ja\u2019far, son of Muhammad, for a while \u2013 indeed, I did not see him except in one of (these) three conditions: either praying, fasting, or reciting Qur\u2019an. I never saw him narrating on behalf of God\u2019s Messenger (Prophet Muhammad) except in a state of (ritual) purity. He did not speak of that which did not concern him\u2026No eye had seen, nor ear had heard, and no heart of mankind had thought of (someone) more virtuous than Ja\u2019far, son of Muhammad, in knowledge, worship, and piety.\u201d[vii]<\/p>\n<h2>Proof of the Creator<\/h2>\n<p>At one point, a man asked Imam al-Sadiq, \u201cWhat is the proof that you have a Creator?\u201d Imam Ja\u2019far al-Sadiq responded with the following:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI found myself subject to one of two options: either I created myself or something other than myself created me. If I created myself, I am also subject to one of two options: either I created my self while my self already existed \u2013 but then I would not need to create it since it already existed \u2013 or I created my self while I was nonexistent, but you already know that the nonexistent cannot bring about anything. Therefore, the third meaning is proven \u2013 that I have a Creator, Who is Lord of the Worlds.\u201d[viii]<\/p>\n<p>This argument leaves no other possible option if one assumes that being created is a given. Another man challenged that thought, however, and told the Imam, \u201cI am not a created (being).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Imam al-Sadiq said, \u201cThen describe for me \u2013 if you were a created (being) \u2013 how would you be (what qualities describe a created being)?\u201d The man thought for a while, and then paid attention to a piece of wood that was near him. \u201cLong, wide, deep, short, moving, stationary\u2026all of these are qualities of being created.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Imam al-Sadiq then said:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you do not know (how to differentiate) qualities of the created (being) as opposed to the not (created being), then consider yourself created due to these things which you see coming about in your own self.\u201d[ix]<\/p>\n<p>In other words, the descriptions of length after being short, of changing width and depth, of motion after stillness, all point to different states of being. Humans are subject to these changes all the time. The next state exists only after the previous one. Since change is taking place at every moment, all changing things are essentially being created continuously. Every instant, there is a new proof of us being created.&nbsp;<sup>iv<\/sup><\/p>\n<h2>With the Corrupt Ruler<\/h2>\n<p>Imam Ja\u2019far al-Sadiq had a number of bold confrontations with the corrupt rulers of his day. The Imam stood up and spoke the words of truth without fear or hesitation. One day, the Abbasid ruler Mansur was in the presence of Imam al-Sadiq. Mansur had been shooing away a fly which kept bothering him. As the corrupt ruler became annoyed he asked the Imam, \u201c\u2026Why did God create the fly?\u201d Imam al-Sadiq replied, \u201cTo humiliate the arrogant ones.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mansur remained silent because he knew that, had he spoken, Imam al-Sadiq would have responded with an even more critical statement. &nbsp;But this same ruler chose to write to Imam al-Sadiq one day asking, \u201cWhy don\u2019t you approach us as the people approach us?\u201d The Holy Imam answered:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is nothing for which we fear you, nor do you have anything of the Hereafter that we would seek you for. Neither are you in a blessing such that we should congratulate you, nor do you see it as a burden such that we should send you our condolences. So what would we do at your place?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mansur wrote back, \u201cYou would accompany us to advise us.\u201d Imam al-Sadiq\u2019s response was decisive, \u201cThe one who wants this world would not advise you, and the one who wants the hereafter would not accompany you.\u201d[x]<\/p>\n<p>Mansur soon sought to relieve his worrisome thoughts about Imam al-Sadiq once and for all. The tyrant had the immaculate Imam poisoned in Madinah. On his deathbed, Imam al-Sadiq reminded his followers of an essential duty. The sixth Imam opened his eyes and looked into the faces of those around him saying,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndeed, our intercession does not extend to one who takes the prayers lightly.\u201d With these words, Imam al-Sadiq emphasized the significance of prayer and its relation to the intercession of Divine Mercy. The sixth holy Imam was buried in the Baqi\u2019 cemetery of Madinah.[xi]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<div id=\"edn1\">\n<p>[i]&nbsp;Pg. 15, Vol. 47 of&nbsp;<em>Bihar al-Anwar&nbsp;<\/em>by \u2018Allamah Majlisi<br>\n[ii]&nbsp;Pg. 311 of&nbsp;<em>Sirat al-A\u2019immah<\/em>&nbsp;by Sh.
