16:7
Not every mu’min can experience the taste of dying before physical death and in order to attain this experience it is necessary to obey the Imam of the time, so that the particle of his soul is merged with one of the hudud-i din (see Wajh-i Din, Guftar 26). Such mu’mins traverse the spiritual stages through the hudud-i din for as God says: "And they (cattle) carry your burdens to lands where you could not have reached without making particles of your souls." (16:7). By cattle are meant the hudud-i din, and with their support mu’mins reach the city of spirituality, i.e. Paradise, and they will have observed every stage of the previous spiritual journey.
