چند پرسش دينی و معرفتی در مکتب شيخ مفيد، دکتر حسن انصاری

غيبت امام دوازدهم (بخش دوم)

جلسه پنجم: در اين جلسه چهار رساله کوتاه شيخ مفيد درباره غيبت و مهدويت را بازخوانی کرديم و با موضع کلامی شيخ مفيد درباره آموزه غيبت و نسبت آن با انديشه استمرار امامت معصوم منصوص آشنا شديم. در اين چهار رساله کوتاه شيخ مفيد به چند پرسش اساسی دورانش در ميان اماميه و معتزله درباره مسئله غيبت می پردازد. از رهگذر مطالعه اين پرسش ها و پاسخ ها می توان به تحول انديشه اماميه در اين زمينه پی برد. شيخ مفيد ديدگاهی کلامی درباره اين موضوع دارد و تمام سعی او در این است که اندیشه غیبت امام را متمایز از دیدگاه های غلات شیعی و دیگر مخالفان خط اعتدالی فقهی/کلامی که تفاسیر متفاوتی از امامت و غیبت به دست می دادند ارائه دهد. او در این چارچوب به بحث درباره چگونگی استنباط احکام شرعی در عصر غیبت و نقش فقیهان نیز پرداخته است. از دیدگاه وی امامت پیش از هر چیز الگوی هدایت و مصداق استمرار حجت الهی در دین است. از نظر شیخ مفید این نقش امام که محوری ترین نقش اوست در دوران غیبت همچنان برقرار است. او از روایات قائمیت و مهدویت که ریشه کهنه ای در تشیع داشته اند بهره می برد و آن را با انديشه کلامی ضرورت عقل پایه وجود امام پیوند می زند. با این حال برای شیخ مفید وجود امام ولو در دوره غیبت ضامن حفظ تکلیف، بقای شريعت و حجت و مهمتر از همه معنابخش به ایمان به خداوند و عالم غیب و ارتباط انسان با خدا از طریق سلسله وحی و حجت الهی است. امام، ولو در دوره غيبت، کسی است که همه مؤمنان حتی در نماز و ذکر و عبادت و صوم خود از طریق حس همراهی و هماهنگی با اوست که با پیامبر همراه می شوند. از دیدگاه شیخ مفید امت گرچه در دوره غیبت تنها به دلیل وجود امام معصوم منصوص است که حلقه اتصال خود را با وحی و نبوت حفظ و تضمین می کند.

باز توضيح داديم که چگونه اهل سنت بعد از بحران دینی و اندیشگی در تفکر اشعری عصر غزالی تلاش کردند با طرح نظریه هایی جانشین در تصوف خراسان و نهایتا در عرفان محی الدین ابن عربی و با پذیرش و یا ارائه مفاهیمی مانند شیخ/ قطب/ ولایت به معنای صوفیانه اش/ انسان کامل راه حلی جایگزینِ وجود نظریه امام معصوم برای برون رفت از بحران خود ارائه دهند.

Immediately after the assasination and martyrdom of Imam Ali (a.s.) in Ramadan 40AH (Jan. 661AD) his son and the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.) Imam Hasan (a.s.) was chosen by the people of Kufa and with the support of the people of Hijaz (Mecca and Medina), Yemen and Basra as the next Caliph of the Islamic world. Only opposition came from Muawiya son of Abu Sufyan the archenemy of the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.) who was in control of Syria and Egypt.

Imam Hasan's reign was brief and ended in Aug. 661AD with his abdication in favor of Muawiya in accordance with their peace treaty.

His abdication is one of the most important events in the history of early Islam with important theological implications for both shia and sunni. As the well known sunni Egyptian scholar Jalaluddin Suyuti has put it Hasan (a.s ) was the last of the rightly guided caliphs and after him with Muawiya and Umayyads the caliphate changed to kingship.

In the first lecture of these two lecture series we looked briefly to the political and social conditions at the time Imam Hasan was chosen as the caliph and the events after that which lead him to accept the peace proposal by Muawiya, including the details of two of the letters which was exchanged between the them.

In the second lecture of these two lecture series we discussed in more details the events which during Imam Hasan's military march and campaign against Muawiya led him to the decision to accept Muawiya's peace proposal and abdicating himself. Among these events were mutiny by his army, plundering his tent, tearing his clothes from his shoulder and later failed assassination attempt by a Kharijite which injured Imam and defections from the 12000 man vanguard of Imam's army to the Muawiya's side.

In continuation we also discussed in more details the articles of the peace treaty between Imam Hassan and Muawiyah and tried to clarify some confusions regarding the contents of the peace treaty.
