Subject:	saluting the Imam in dua Faraj
Question:	Why do we stand and put our hand on our head when we recite Dua Faraj or when Imam Mahdi is mentioned? What does it symbolize?
Answer:	It is a sign of your allegiance to the Qaim, by standing and placing your hand on your forehead is recognizing his status and position.

Follow Up Question:	Why do we not do the same when Allah or our Prophets name is mentioned?
Follow Up Response Question:	As Imam Muhammad ibn Hasan al Mahdi is the current and present Imam of our time. As it says ... "Verily I am going to make a caliph in the earth ". . . ( Holy Quran 2: 30) refers in the Tafsir's that there will always be a Caliph on Earth. We plead allegiance to the living Imam as His sincere followers and helpers in propagating Islam.
