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.[2][3][4][1][5]
Educations
[edit]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.[6][7][8]
Tendency to Mysticism
[edit]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!"[9] 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."[10]
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.[10]

A Mystical Sonnet
[edit]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 |
