Preface

Wilaya(الولایه) is one of the most important concepts of Islam. Islam is completed by wilaya. Wilaya is being submitted to commandment (الامر) of God and Prophet Mohammad and masumin (المعصومین) . Paying attention to this point can save people from difficulties in their life. It is necessary for us to consider our acts and try to be submitted to wilaya. Shias always asks God to grant them knowledge of wilaya. 

The aim of this book is illustrating an enaya.(العنایه) . An enaya is gift from heaven. It uncovers a secret of heaven. Only a pious person who is selected by fourteen masumin can receive an enaya. This person has to pass several exams to reach to such a level of faith.  
Haj Hussein Khosh Lahje(حاج حسین خوش لهجه) is a pious who has received an enaya from Imam Reza (peace be on him). The enaya is:
"The Spirit is wilaya"(روح ولایت است)

The Sprit here refers to a verse of Quran in surra of Al-Qadr:
"The angels and the Spirit descend therein, by the permission of "their Lord with all decrees.(4)

Imam Reza (peace be on him) has permitted Khosh Lahje to uncover this enaya and illustrate it for people. This enaya is a victory.
This book contains messages of fourteen masumin. Khosh Lahje illustrates this enaya with knowledge of wilaya. This knowledge is gained by obeying commandment of God. If a person read this book and practice its instructions then he will be saved. 

In this book, Khosh Lahje illustrates this enaya through several parts. The reader should read all of parts and consider them together. It is very important to think about all parts together as a whole. Firstly he discusses about comprehension of an enaya and also the difference between enaya and saying and then he illustrates different aspects of this enaya. The discussion goes through several topics like Fate, patience, divine scholar and perfection. He ends the book with discussion about magnificence of Fateme (peace be on her). Fateme (peace be on her) is the most important human in this book and also all creation
Khosh lahje was born in 1925. He lives in Qom(قم) , Iran. He was a carpenter and now he is retired. He has participated in the discussions with Ayatollah Seyyed Ahmad Khansari (آیت الله سید احمد خوانساری), Haj Sheikh Abbas Tehrani (حاج شیخ عباس تهرانی), Seyyed Mohammad Hojjat Kuh Kamare'I (سید محمد حجت کوه کمره ای) since he was youth. He has tried to be submitted to wilaya in all days of his life. Now, he holds weekly sessions about wilaya and other religious subjects in Qom and many people attend in his lectures.

Khosh Lahje believes that wilaya, justice and generosity are three main requirements for perfection. He insists on generosity. In one of his lectures he points to the most important event of his life:
"One day, when I was a teenager, I attended in a discussion about Adam (peace be on him). The speaker was illustrating the story of Adam, Eve and apple. I was influenced by this lecture: Adam eats the apple and God expels him from paradise. Since that day, I've tried not to commit a sin. Thank God that he helped me during several hard exams in my life." 

This book is based on one of his lectures. Isma'el Yaqubi (اسماعیل یعقوبی) , one of the students of Khosh Lahje has organized this book. So the text contains quotations of Khosh Lahje. The target of Khosh Lahje is showing hidden aspects of an enaya. Doing the instructions of this book can help you to find the light of wilaya.
