Escaping for Allah S.W .T BY: MUFEED invest in, being exposed. This panic of betrayal causes them to turn on the Ansar of Allah, supporters of Imam Ahmad al Hassan (as), and to behave with incredible hostility towards the reality of eventual arrival of Imam e Zamana (ajf). Sadly, even Shias are victims of this, although with our history of continuous betrayal from people within and outside our community, with our great Imams (as) martyred and our political leaders assassinated, this should have been knocked out of us. B By now all Muslims should know that speaking out for the truth causes great hatred from those who are threatened by the truth. This hatred leads to mocking, ridicule, oppression and even torture and death. The contempt felt by the smug majority (who, if they were honest with themselves, would realize that their need to make the truth tellers shut up, just shows how insecure and threatened they are) is universal to every age and culture. This is something the Ansar are going through especially at the moment. The message of the Yamani is the biggest threat to all the Shaitan and Taghoot. From the monarchy and dictatorship of Saudi Arabia and similar Arab states, to the thinly veiled pseudo-democracy of the US and UK, to the intense atheism of the Netherlands, to the silent, nonworking Muslim scholars of Iraq and similar places, the Kuffar and Munafiqeen alike are ruffled, and all are together in their injustice. But that is the macro version. There is also a micro model for this oppression. The sheeple who follow the Taghoot are the first line of defense from these regimes. These people cannot face being unplugged. They have been well trained and brainwashed in some cases. In other cases they just feel intense panic when they see the system they trust and There may be Ansar today who are autonomous and independent, and so are able to follow God and be students of al-Yamani (as) to the maximum of their ability. There may be Ansar today who are fortunate enough to have their entire family pledge allegiance to the servant of Imam e Zamana (ajf), alYamani (as) But there are many Ansar today who are alone, alienated, facing hurdles, being ridiculed and tormented every day by the people who were previously their close ones. Some Ansar have always been alienated, even before the advent of Yamani (as), simply because they told the truth. Many are reverts to Islam and their non-Muslim relatives were already appalled by them. Some left Wahabbism for the creed of Qur'an and Ahlul Bayt (as), and faced the same dilemma.  In these circumstances we look for champions. People who were given high spiritual status by Allah and the Prophet (sawas) and his family (as) have incredible stories, and history often glossed over them. This is to minimize their impact and encourage sameness and homogeneity in the Dajjali system. Here we focus on those people who )
