Imam Jawad (AS) a very young Imam

SHAFAQNA – In one of the meetings at the start of the Imamat of Imam Jawad (AS) organised by Shia Muslims, Yonus bin Abdulrahman who was a trusted Shia Muslim with Imam Reza (AS) said: What should we do until this child [Imam Jawad (AS)] grow up? At this time Rayyan bin Salt stood up and whilst protesting said: You appear to believe in Imam Jawad (AS) but it is clear that deep down you doubt his Imamat. When Imamat is from Allah (SWT) even a one day old child is counted as a Sheikh and when Imamat is not from God even a 1000 year old is like other people [1].
