An Interpretive Analysis of the Position and Role of “Mosaberah” and “Morabetah” in Connection with the Imam of the Time (A.S) with the Focus on the Verse 200 of Surah Al-e-Imran

One of the commandments of the Qur’an to the believers in the verse 200 of Surah Al-e-Imran is the order to the patience” and “endurance” besides “Mosaberah” and “Morabetah”. According to the viewpoint of the scholars, especially the commentators and what is obtained from the infallible Imams’ narrations, there is a difference between patience and Mosaberah, while Mosaberah in the mentioned meaning, is related to Morabetah in meaning. One of the analyzes and meanings which are mentioned in relation to “Morabetah” is the connection to the Imam, which is verified by the Shiite traditions and interpreted as “the obligation of the believers to communicate and connect with the infallible Imam”.
This article focuses on the above-mentioned verse and talks about the interactive relationship of these two concepts in connection with the Imam of the Time (A.S) with a descriptive-analytic approach, while it analyzes the mentioned meanings and explains the semantic relationship between Mosaberah and Mosaderah. “Mosaberah” means the help, assistance and aid of believers to believers in “patience” and “Morabetha” has a conceptual relation to the synergy and helping one another in the preparation and protection of the Islamic boundaries and the connection and relation with the Imam, especially with regard to the issue of awaiting, which relies on the patience and readiness. This idea derived from the Qur’anic verses refutes the view of those who consider the belief in Mahdism as a personal issue or deny the presence of the Imam (A.S).
