Mohammad Javad Ansari Hamedani in his youth

Mohammad Javad Ansari Hamedani (Born 1902 - Died April 29, 1960) was a contemporary Iranian Shiite Faqih and mystic. He was the son of Mullah Fath Ali Hamedani and was born in Hamadan and grew up in an Islamic religious Shia family.

Educations

At the age of seven, he started learning seminary lessons such as Morphology and Syntax with his father. From the age of twelve, which coincided with the death of his father, he studied Islamic jurisprudence and principles and some philosophical books under revision of Hamadan scholars such as Mirza Ali Khalkhali, Seyed Arab, Ali Shahidi, Mohammad Ismaeel Emadol Eslam. He studied in the fields of Unani medicine, courses of Abu Bakr al-Razi, and the science of self-knowledge and ethics under revision of Mirza Hossein Kosar Hamedani, the brother of Reza Vaez, a famous preacher. Ansari Hamedani reached the level of ijtihad at the age of 24, which was approved by scholars of Qom such as Abdolkarim Haeri Yazdi, Abu l-Hasan al-Isfahani, Mohammad Taqi Khansari and Qomi Borujerdi.

Tendency to Mysticism

At first, he had no inclination towards mysticism, one day during his studentship in Hamadan, he heard that a mystic had come to Hamadan dressed as a scholar and some people had gathered around him. In order to guide this man, Mohammad Javad Ansari Hamedani entered the meeting and gave a speech for about 2 hours that "there is no other way but the Sharia path, and if there is, it is pure deviation." At the end of his words, that mystic man looked at him and said to him: "Soon you yourself will set fire to the hearts of the burned ones of the world!" After this event, a transformation takes place inside Ansari Hamedani and in order to find a master and a mentor and a guide on the path of divine love, he generally turns away from people, he often goes to the desert to pray and supplicate in the cold and heat weather, or he goes to pilgrimage of the shrine of Fatima bint Musa in Qom, which finally After repeated appeals, a hope arise for him by appeal to the Prophet of Islam and he reached such a level in spiritual side that Seyed Ali Ghazi said about him: "He did not have a teacher in his way and he received monotheism directly from God."

His tense mystical moods caused him to be excommunicated by some illiterate peoples, Abdolkarim Haeri Yazdi (his teacher) advised him to hide his moods. This period, which begins when he is about 28 years old, continues with restlessness and inflammation until he is about 40 years old, until he reaches peace.

A Mystical Sonnet

A mystical sonnet by Ansari Hamedani:

منزلگه آن یار اگر خانه من بود 

If that friend's house (God) was my house

فردوس برین گوشه کاشانه من بود 

The pure heaven was in the corner of my house

شاهان جهان را نشدی هیچ میسر 

It was not possible at all for the kings of the world to take

آن گنج مرادی که به ویرانه من بود 

That precious intention treasure that was in my ruin

هر گوشه چشمی که نمود آن شه خوبان 

Every reflection of the eye that pure king reveals

تیری به دل خسته دیوانه من بود 

It was a shot to my crazy tired heart

گر سوخت مرا جلوه دیدار عجب نیست 

It's no wonder that a think of sight of him burned me

کان شمع مراد دل دیوانه من بود 

Because that intention candle was wish of my crazy heart

هر ناحیه شد جلوه گر از حسن نگاری 

Every area became a manifestation of reflection of the excellence

از پرتو آن دلبر جانانه من بود 

It was because of reflection of my earnestly lover

گر هوش مرا برد لبش روح و روان داد 

If he took my mind, his lips gave me soul and sense

کان آب حیات و می و میخانه من بود 

It was the fountain of water of life and my beverage and my tavern

برد آن خم ابرو، ز کنشتم سوی محراب 

That eyebrow bend, pulled me from praying to the altar

در بی‌خبری دید که بتخانه من بود 

Unknowingly, something saw that reflection begins when I busy with my sins

لطف ازلی گفت که ای فانی محروم 

Eternal ethereality said that you, the deprived mortal

آزادیت از پند حکیمانه من بود 

Your freedom comes when my wise advice arose
