(b) The characteristics of Imam Mahdi?s (a.s.) companions
While narrating the features of the companions of Imam Mahdi (a.t.f.s.), Imam
Sadiq (a.s.) narrates that,They will be such men, that their hearts will be
like pieces of iron.
There will exist not a shred of doubt in their minds, nor will they ever
harbour any doubts. To uphold the rights of Allah, they will be unyielding
(like hard stone). They will constantly circumambulate the presence of the Holy
Imam as moth circumambulate the fire (as they are attracted to the glow of the
fire). They will submit themselves in the service of Imam Mahdi (a.t.f.s.).
They will remain awake in the nights, and worship of Allah Through out. Their
voices, as they worship Allah, will be similar to the humming sound of the
honeybees. They will remain alert during the nights and prepare for jehad
during the days. They will always be attentive towards the service and
obedience of Imam Mahdi (a.t.f.s.).
