Abu Jafar, Muhammad Bin Ali Shlmghany, known as Ibn Abi Azagher, claimed that he had the power of attorney of Imam Zaman (peace be upon him) falsely in the time of the absence of Imam Zaman (peace be upon him). After a while, he got deviational thoughts and beliefs and followed the path of blasphemy. Finally he was cursed by Imam Zaman (peace be upon him) and was rejected by the society of Shias.
During the history of the life of Imams (peace be upon them), there were different cases that their followers did Sufism or made discord among Shias. The innocent Imams (peace be upon them) rejected them and reacted harshly against them.
In the era of the absence of Imam Zaman (peace be upon him), due to the lack of direct connection of Shias, scientists and religious dignitaries and the deprivation of the benefit of the honorable presence, the background of the growth of deviations and malicious thoughts of devil persons provided and they deceived ignorant persons with weak beliefs and made Shias and the Muslims hesitate about their beliefs and them. Practically, they made disagreement and discord among the Muslims and in this way, they made a lot of difficulties for the religion.
After the martyrdom of Imam Hasan Asgari (peace be upon him), the start of Soghra absence of Imam Zaman (peace be upon him) and the lack of the presence of innocent Imam (peace be upon him) in the society of the Muslims, the background of religious deviations for persons that have been misguided extended and religious deviations among people increased and the situation of persons such as Abu Muhammad Shariati, Muhammad Bin Nasir Namiri, Ahmad Bin Halal Karkhi, Abu Taher Muhammad Bin Ali Balali and Muhammad Bin Ali improved.
However, these persons with deviated thoughts were not aware that Imam Zaman (peace be upon him) controlled the thoughts and behaviors of other people through his special assistants (Ayatollah) and if it was necessary, they scandalized deviated and malicious persons and his followers cursed them.
Abu Jafar, Muhammad Bin Ali Shlmghany, was one of deviated well known persons of the Soghra absence. Abu Jafar, known as Ibn Azagher, was from Shlmghany, in the southern part of Iraq, (distance between Kufe and Amare) and had two positive and negative personalities from the beginning of the youth until the end of his life.
He was one of Shiite prominent narrators and scientists and different narrations were narrated from Imams (peace be upon them) through Abu Jafar.
Sheikh Hussein Bin Ruh Bin No Bakhti (the third successor of Imam Zaman(peace be upon him), trusted Shlmghany completely. he achieved to a religious and social position among the tribe ( Bani Bastam) from Sheikh Hussein Bin Ruh Bin No Bakht. after a while, this tribe became highly interested in him as much as after he followed the deviational path, he related whatever unpleasant remarks to Sheikh Hussein Bin Ruh and the people of the Bastam Tribe accepted and considered them as their religious beliefs.
Shlmghany was proud of his scientific and social position and gradually followed deviational path and misused the religious feelings of some Shias in relation to empty remarks and behaviors in a futile and illegitimate way.
Narrating from Sheikh Tusi, Najashi has said about Shlmghany in the book '' Al-Rejal''
له كتب و روايات و كان مستقيم الطريقه ثم تغير و ظهرت منه مقالاتمنكره...
Announcer: gradually, Shlmghany troubled in the trick of Satan. On the one hand, he was proud of science, knowledge and the rank of his personality and on the other hand, he was the jealous of the rank of Shamokh Hazrat Hussein Bin Ruh Nobakhti (the selected assistant of Imam Zaman ( may God hasten his advent). All of these factors made him have false claims.
At first, he claimed he was the assistant of Imam Zaman (peace be upon him) and then he claimed higher ranks. Finally, he followed the path of renegade and blasphemy.
Abd Al-Ghaher Asfarayeni Tamimi, the writer of the book '' Al-Fargh Beyn Al-Fargh'', says about him and his blasphemous claims '' his name is Muhammad Bin Ali Shlmghany. He claimed that the soul of God entered his body, so he called himself '' Ruh Al-Ghodus'' and wrote the book with the name '' Al-Hase Al-Sadese'' (the sixth sense) and clarified to remove the religion and to make sodomy lawful. He also thought that he could intermingle luminous light with Mfzvl; therefore, he made the forbidden things of his followers legitimate for himself. He imagined falsely that his light that is luminous can combine with the forbidden things of his followers that are Mfzvl. He claimed that he could make the dead alive. He was also able to do transmigration of souls and in this way, attracted a lot of followers.
After Hussein Bin Ruh No Bakhti, the selected assistant of Imam Zaman (peace be upon him), got new information about Shlmghany, he became sensitive about him and kept an eye on him and when he informed that Shlmaghany had written the book '' Al-Taklif'', he ordered to send an inscription of the book and said'' nothing has been narrated about Imams (peace be upon them) except two or three cases. He related whatever had written in the book to Imams falsely. Abu Ali Benaham says'' I heard that Muhammad Bin Ali Shlmghany said '' there one true talk, but there are many ways to deny it, one day with white color; another day with red color; still another day with blue color. When his thoughts and beliefs were censured by Hussein Bin Ruh, he made him away from himself and recommended the Shias to leave and to curse him. Shlmghany called it an inner struggle and a material motivation. Finally the reaction of Hussein Bin Ruh No Bakhti became clearer against the deviations of Shlmghany and he prevented his Shias and supporters to close him, generally hated him and pushed him away from the friendly society of the Shias.
Due to the pressure of the Shias and their objection, Shlmghany had to leave Baghdad, went to Movasel (the north of Iraq) and resided there for two years.
Then he came back to Baghdad and when his disagreement with Hussein Bin Ruh increased, he summoned him to mbahlh up in the ceremony of curse.
Muhammad Bin Shlmaghany sent a message to Hussein Bin Ruh , summoned him for Mbahlh and said to him '' I am the assistant of Imam ( peace be upon him) and Bahman has ordered to reveal science and I revealed and expressed it clearly. If you do not accept it and consider it a lie, mbahlh up with me until the fact becomes clear for all''.
Hussein Bin Ruh answered '' my mbahlh with you is that if the death of any one of us arrives sooner and leaves the transient world, he or she will fail, the opposite side will be true and will win''.
Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Davud Ghomi says '' a book that included answers to religious questions was with the people of Qom and they used it until they hesitated about the answers available in it (whether they were from Imam Zaman (peace be upon him) or from the answers of Shlmghany).
Their hesitation was due to the claim that Shlmghany had about the answers. The people of Qom sent this book to Hussein Bin Ruh so that he could take it to the presence of Imam Zaman (peace be upon him) and ask Imam Zaman (peace be upon) whether the answers were from him or from Shlmghany.
Shlmghany took the book to the presence of Imam Zaman (peace be upon him) and he stated on the back of the book
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم. قد وقفنا على هذه الرقعه و ماتضمنته, فجميعه جوابنا[ عن المسائل] و لا مدخل للمخذول الضال المضل, المعروفبالعزاقرى لعنه الله, فى حرف منه. وقد كانت إشيإ خرجت اليكم على يدى احمد بن بلال وغيره من نظرائه, و كان من ارتدادهم عن الاسلام مثل ما كان من هذا, عليهم لعنه اللهو غضبه
In the name of kind and generous God. I am aware of this writing and content. All of them are our answers and none of them are related to a person that is mean and deviate others, known as Azagheri, and God curses him. Remarks that you hear from Ahmad Bin Balal and his companions are rumors and false and they may hesitate you. In fact, their renegade comes from Shlmghany.
After they published disrespects related to the holy things of the Muslims, Hussein Bin Ruh stated in the assembly of great Shias '' I hold the hand of Shlmghany and he hold my hand if fire doesn't descend to burn him, I will accept whatever he says.
Hussein Bin Ruh scandalized with such logical remarks and ordered the Shias and the lovers of Ahle Beit get away from him and push him away from themselves.
After the twentieth Abasi caliph got informed of the deviations of Shlmghany and the dissatisfaction of scientists and Shiite dignitaries and the Sunni scientists from his ideas and thoughts, he issued order to arrest him.
Then he convicted him and looked for his false remarks and ideas.
Shlmghany rejected most of accuses, but the caliph brought some witnesses and proved his blasphemy remarks. When Shlmghany found himself a convicted person, he threatened the caliph to the descent of torture from God and said '' if you are tortured by God within two or three days, you can kill me. Razi Abasi did not pay attention to his threats and ordered to punish him severely.
The of officials of the government hung him in the second Zi Al-Ghade in 323 Gh, cut his hands and feet and with a lot of hits, tortured for his bad actions. Then they fired his corpse and threw away its ash in the river of Dejle. They also hung Ibrahim Bin Un that was one of scientists and writers and undertook the responsibility of writing for Shlmghany and supported and preached his ideas and his corpse was burnt in the fire.
Hence, a prominent personality that could not control his concupiscence and get himself away from the deviations of Satan was deceived by the scientific and social positions, stood against fact and truth and finally was tortured due to his bad actions.
Although Shlmghany appeared and grew up in the era of Kobra absence, such persons will appear in the Kobra absence and will misguide the beliefs of people.
