Hibtullah Sheeth, did
not get the permission to reveal his knowledge, as mentioned in a lengthy
report quoted in Rauda Kafi from His Eminence, Abu Ja'far Baqir (a) that he
said:
"When Hibtullah
buried his father, Adam, Qabeel came to him and said: O Hibtullah I saw that my
father, Adam did not give me as much knowledge as he gifted to you and it is
the same knowledge with which your brother, Habeel prayed and his sacrifice was
accepted, and that is why I killed him so that he may not have children who
could proudly claim to my children that:
'We are children of
one whose sacrifice was accepted and you are the children of one whose
sacrifice was not accepted.' And if you reveal the knowledge that my father has
given to you only, I would kill you too like I killed my brother, Habeel. Thus Hibtullah
and his children concealed the knowledge and faith they had…" [1]
His Eminence, Qaim also would not receive
permission till the appointed day, as mentioned about His Eminence:
At the time of his birth he kneeled down and
raised his two fingers towards the sky and sneezed, he said:
"Praise be to
Allah, the Lord of the worlds and may Allah bless Muhammad and the Progeny of
Muhammad."
" The
oppressors thought that the Divine Proof is invalid and destroyed. If we had
been permitted to speak freely about him all the doubts would be removed."
