The strange story of Hamid and Faezeh’s wedding card that reached the Supreme Leader of the Revolution / We bought a silver service instead of gold
Life group: Although eye-to-eye and rituals and customs, some of which are added and wrong, have made the conditions of marriage difficult for young people, but there are still young people who follow the example of Hazrat Zahra (PBUH) and Amir al-Mu’minin (AS) to hold this holy thing easily. . Hamid and Faezeh are a couple who, in addition to making their ceremony easy, have invited the Supreme Leader of the Revolution to their wedding.
Faezeh Koushakbaghi, a lady who, unlike girls her age, has gone beyond the luxuries and splendor of her ceremonies until their relationship is in accordance with the wishes of Hazrat Zahra (PBUH), says in an interview with a Fars reporter:
I am Faezeh Koushakbaghi, born in 1991, and my wife Hamid Eskandari, born in 1985. We got married two years ago and now we are happy together. The story of our acquaintance dates back to early October 1997.
Faezeh tells us the story of her acquaintance and marriage as follows:
“One autumn evening, while I was touring, a message came to me. The message was to a gentleman who wrote under one of my posts: “Can I bother you directly?” I did not answer. He texted me again and asked me to let him talk for a few moments.
Finally I was satisfied and came directly. He wrote very respectfully, “Hello, I do not intend to disturb you. I like the content of your page and being a student, and I am looking for a religious spouse and I intend to get married.
He also explained a few sentences about his job, his family and himself. I replied that I did not like virtual marriage and could not trust it. Hamid started talking again and told me in detail about himself. Finally, he sent me a photo so that I could trust him more easily.
It took me a few days to think about his offer and I agreed to talk to him under the supervision of the families. Our first meeting was in Behesht Zahra.
I wanted my marriage to be according to the wishes of Hazrat Zahra
After several acquaintance sessions, Hamid came to our house with his mother to propose. In the courtship sessions, I tried to make sure that everything was according to the wishes of Hazrat Zahra (PBUH). Although I, like all girls, wanted to wear special and impressive clothes to my ceremonies, I did not do so. I preferred to start from the simple beginning so as not to get involved in luxuries and extravagance. Of course, it was not that my appearance and beauty did not matter to me. I always had a neat and tidy appearance with the clothes I had or borrowed from the top people in my life.
I was against heavy dowry
My family did not agree with 14 coins at all and said that the dowry of at least 59 coins should be the name of Imam Zaman with the abjad intention. Hamid had also told the families that he wanted Faezeh’s dowry to be such that I could pay it whenever he demanded it. Eventually, no matter how hard it was, we convinced the families that the heavy dowry would not bring them happiness and that they would be satisfied with the same 14 coins. At Hamid’s request and for the blessing of our lives, a trip to Karbala was added to my dowry.
I took my wedding service silver
We tried very hard to start an easy marriage and not get caught up in luxuries at all. Especially since my wife was in financial trouble at the time. At my suggestion, we did not pay for items that were not needed. For example, I did not buy hair irons, hair dryers, pheromones, etc. because I was single. Like some girls, I could say that I want the best and the most ideal of everything. At that time, Hamid had to borrow to meet my needs, but I did not want the difficulty of lending in our life together.
I offered to buy the silver service to Hamid myself. When I saw that he was worried about the costs, I said that I had no problem buying the silver service. Hamid accepted because he was really in financial trouble and said that he would buy me a gold service whenever possible. Now our only problem was to satisfy the families, especially my parents. I told my family very calmly and stressfully that we could not afford the gold service and did not have the budget. Well, usually all parents want their child to have the best of everything for their child’s well-being. For the first reason, they disagreed, but I explained to my family that we could not buy at the moment, and if we wanted to buy gold, we would have to borrow, and we did not like to borrow for something unnecessary, and thank God they were finally satisfied. A few days before the wedding We went to the market and after we found an account, we found a good and beautiful service at a reasonable price and bought it, and I am really very satisfied with buying it.
Our wedding ceremony was very simple
Every day that passed and we got closer to the wedding day, my stress increased. One day before the wedding, my sister-in-law and my sister and I went shopping to buy clothes. I bought a white scarf. On the night of the wedding, I asked God to help us to be truly a model in the simplicity and contentment of Hazrat Zahra and to make our hearts satisfied with what we have.
On my wedding day, I bought a pink nail polish and applied it myself. I did not even go to the hairdresser in a short and useful way, I prepared myself and decorated my hair with the tools I had. I did not even know if my wife would buy me a bouquet or not! When he came to see us, he had bought me a bouquet of 10 rose branches.
We had a simple ceremony, we found a notebook with a reasonable price and a cozy atmosphere to start our stay together. Thank God everything went well, we did not invite many guests and no extravagance or extravagance in our ceremony Was not.
We left the first wedding card for Imam Zaman
When I was single, when I was reading the memoirs of the martyred student Mostafa Radanipour, he wrote near his wedding, wrote a card and took it to Jamkaran for Imam Zaman and asked him to become a father and come to the wedding. I got married and I first asked the Ahl al-Bayt to come to my wedding and step on my eyes. I appealed to Hazrat Zahra and Imam Zaman about the cards we wrote and asked them not to leave us alone. Although we were never good children for them, let them grow up and come to our parliament.
We sent our wedding card to the leader
Apart from the card that we set aside for Imam Zaman (as), we also wrote a card for the Supreme Leader. Luckily for me, I did not know how to really deliver the card to Hazrat Agha. If you have a letter or a note, write to the gentleman. I was happy, I took our wedding card and took it with a letter and said, “Be careful and send it to the beloved.”
We believed that the soul of the leadership is right and they are really human, sincere and special, and it was important for us when we invite the Imam of the Age (pbuh) to invite their deputy who is in the absence of the Imam, but we are. Although we knew it was just our wish, it was very valuable to us as soon as we were sure they were praying for us.
The leader prayed for our goodness in the end
Some time after our wedding, a package came to me from the post office. I opened it and my hands really froze until I saw the letter. I was so happy that I did not know. We could not believe that they answered. Sir, we were very happy, my wife did not believe and said did they really answer? Did they really send us a gift?
He used to say, “When a person receives a gift from a Sayyid on the day of Eid Ghadir, how happy he is because he has received a gift from the beloved and Shiite Amir al-Mu’minin, but this is very different because they are both Sayyids and Imams and leaders of a Muslim country. “Give us more passion and motivation in our lives and the first of life.”
Sir, in the letter they sent, they prayed for us for our happiness and good fortune. They sent me a black tent, the Quran, a book, and a chafeeh as a gift. I can not describe the feeling I had at all. Hamid recited the Qur’an with the Qur’an they had sent, and I lovingly sewed a tent for myself with a black cloth. I said to myself, “You should appreciate this tent on behalf of the deputy Imam of your time and pray with it and pray for the emergence of the Imamate.”
