The doctrine of the "hidden Imam" is also known as the "occultation".
The "grazing effect" will be seen in Texas - - outside San Antonio and just south of Houston.
The opposite of an occultation (a concealment) is an apocalypse (a revelation).

In 1968, Mohammed bin Laden was killed in a plane crash near San Antonio, Texas when Osama was only eleven-years-old.Following Mohammed bin Laden's death, his eldest sons, principally Salem bin Laden, renamed the organization, "Binladen Brothers for Contracting and Industry" and continued to expand their late father's company until it employed more than 40,000 people. In 1988, Salem bin Laden died when his ultra-light aircraft crashed after hitting power lines near an air park north of San Antonio, Texas.The "Saudi Binladin Group" as it is now known, is involved in construction, engineering, manufacturing, and telecommunications. Construction projects include airports, housing complexes, tunnels, and bridges. The group is also involved in city planning and real estate development. The Saudi Binladin Group is Egypt's largest private foreign company and negotiated with the Lebanese government to rebuild part of central Beirut under a US$50 million contract.
It's interesting to note that there was a moon Saturn occultation on September 10, 2001 and a daytime occultation of Jupiter by the crescent moon on September 12, 2001.
