Speaking in a ceremony held in Isfahan on the occasion of the night of the twenty third of the holy month of Ramadhan, Ayatollah Sayyid Mahmood Bahrul Ulum Mirdamadi, may Allah grant him long life, elaborated on verses 66 to 68 of Surah Al-Maidah.
Referring to verse 66 of the said Surah, Ayatollah Bahrul Ulum stated that God, the Exalted says, “And if they had kept up the Taurat and the Injeel and that which was revealed to them from their Lord, they would certainly have eaten from above them and from beneath their feet there is a party of them keeping to the moderate course, and (as for) most of them, evil is that which they do.”
He further said, “The point that has to be taken into consideration in connection with this holy verse is the clause ‘which was revealed’ and we must see what it means and where it refers to. What it is it that if the Jews and Christians set up, they would have been blessed with abundant bounties. Of course, it is very clear that the clause ‘what was revealed’ does not refer to Torah and Gospel because the clause comes after mention has been made of the two books.”
Referring to verse 68 of Surah Al-Maidah, Ayatollah Bahrul Ulum said, “Also, in this verse, God, the Exalted, speaks of ‘what was revealed’ and we must see what, actually, the said clause means and where it refers to.”
He noted that one of the specifics of the clause ‘what has been revealed’ is that when it was put forth, it led to rebellion of Jews and Christians. “It says in the verse after ‘all the revelation that has come to you from your Lord’… that ‘it is the revelation that cometh to thee from thy Lord, that increaseth in most of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy …” and it speak volumes that the Jews and Christians were apprehensive about ‘what was revealed’. It was after the declaration that Jewish spying apparatus has been conspiring against Islam and Shi’ism from the time of the Holy Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, as of today.
Referring to verse ‘O Messenger! deliver what bas been revealed to you from your Lord’, Ayatollah Bahrul Ulum added that what was revealed and made Jews and Christians apprehensive was guardianship (wilayah) of Ali bin Abi Talib – peace be upon them. “It becomes clear that the satellite TV channels and websites which are opposed to him and broadcasting programs against Ghadir, Fatimiyah and Mahdawiyah are Jew’s agents and mercenaries working in their espionage den,” he said.
Ayatollah Bahrul Ulum further stated, “Today the films produced in the world by Hollywood Company and all the important business centers are in Jew’s hand. The Jews are availing themselves of their power to reach their satanic interests.”
Ayatollah Bahrul Ulum concluded that there are some people who mount on pulpits forbidding others from listening to the sad stories regarding the Holy Prophet and his holy household (may peace and benedictions of Allah be upon them) asking them to read the Quran and hadith. “Perhaps, these people may not know that lamentation and eulogy are the recommendation of the Quran and prophetic tradition. Such utterances on the part of those people are clear antagonism to Ashura and narrating the stories of the Prophet’s Ahlul-Bayt (a.s). They themselves do not know that they are the agents of Jews because Jews are opposing narration of the calamities of the household of the Prophet (pbuh).
