Stages of Discussion:
- Why is it that the Sunni Ulama of that time said that the Imam al-Askari had no son? And what is this rumor that is always mentioned that the imam is hiding is a cellar in Sameraa?
- What was the background of Uthman bin Saeed? Which Imams had he served? And what attributes did he have that made him wakil of Imam?
- What was the way that he showed his credibility early on?
- What was the schism that faced with Imam al-Askari’s brother Jaafar who claimed that he deserved the imamah?
- How did he deal with the Ghulat who said that the imams were God? And how was that particularly troublesome throughout the minor occultation?
- What did the 12th Imam communicate with him to communicate to the Shiaa of that time? And what were some of the issues that were arising that even made some Qummis suspicious of his position?
