CHAPTER 1 – REGARDING THE IMAMS-asws, THEY-asws RECOGNISE THE LIFE-TERMS OF THEIR-asws SHIAS AND CAUSES OF WHAT AFFLICTS THEM
1- حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ رَبِيعِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ طَرِيفٍ عَنِ ابْنِ نُبَاتَةَ قَالَ: كَانَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع إِذَا وَقَفَ الرَّجُلُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ قَالَ يَا فُلَانُ اسْتَعِدَّ وَ أَعِدَّ لِنَفْسِكَ مَا تُرِيدُ فَإِنَّكَ تَمْرَضُ فِي يَوْمِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فِي سَاعَةِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ سَبَبُ مَرَضِكَ كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ تَمُوتُ فِي شَهْرِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فِي يَوْمِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فِي سَاعَةِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا
It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Rabie Bin Muhammad, from Sa’ad Bin Tareyf, from Ibn Nubata who said,
‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws was such that whenever he-asws paused the man in front of him-asws, said: ‘O so and so! Get ready and prepare for yourself what you want, for you will be falling sick during such and such day, in such and such time, and the cause of your illness is such and such, and you will be dying in such a such month, during such and such day, during such a such time’.
قَالَ سَعْدٌ فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ فَكَيْفَ لَا تَقُولُ أَنْتَ وَ لَا تُخْبِرُنَا فَنَسْتَعِدَّ لَهُقَالَ هَذَا بَابٌ أَغْلَقَ الْجَوَابَ فِيهِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ ع حَتَّى يَقُومَ قَائِمُنَا.
Sa’ad said, ‘I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! How come you-asws are not saying nor informing us, so we can be prepared for it?’ He-asws said: ‘This door, Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws closed the answer regarding it until the rising of our-asws Qaim-asws’’.[1]
2- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: كَانَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ع كَتَبَ إِلَيَّ كِتَاباً وَ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ لَا أَفُكَّهُ حَتَّى يَمُوتَ يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Isa who said, ‘It was narrated to me by Ibrahim Bin Muhammad who said,
‘Abu Ja’far Muhammad-asws Bin Ali-asws wrote a letter to me and instructed me that I-asws should not open it until Yahya Bin Abu Imran dies’.
قَالَ فَمَكَثَ الْكِتَابُ عِنْدِي سِنِينَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ فَكَكْتُ الْكِتَابَ فَإِذَا فِيهِ قُمْ بِمَا كَانَ يَقُومُ بِهِ أَوْ نَحْوُ هَذَا مِنَ الْأَمْرِ.
He (the narrator) said, ‘The letter remained with me for years. When it was the day in which Yahya Bin Abu Imran died, I opened the letter, and there, in it was: ‘Stand with what he was standing with’, or approximate to this from the matter’’.[2]
3 – قال و حدثني يحيى و إسحاق ابنا سليمان بن داود أن إبراهيم قرأ هذا الكتاب في المقبرة يوما مات يحيى و كان إبراهيم يقول كنت لا أخاف الموت ما كان يحيى بن أبي عمران حيا و أخبرني بذلك الحسن بن عبد الله بن سليمان.
He said, ‘And it is narrated to me by Yahya and Is’haq, two sons of Suleyman Bin Dawood,
‘Ibrahim read this letter in the graveyard on the day Yahya had died, and Ibrahim was said, ‘I did not use to fear the death for as long as Yahya Bin Abu Imran was alive’, and it was narrated to me with that by Al-Hassan Bin Abdullah Bin Suleyman’’.[3]
4- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْوَشَّاءِ عَنْ هِشَامٍ قَالَ: أَرَدْتُ شِرَى جَارِيَةٍ بِثَمَنٍ وَ كَتَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع أَسْتَشِيرُهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَأَمْسَكَ فَلَمْ يُجِبْنِي فإني [فَأَتَى] مِنَ الْغَدِ عِنْدَ مَوْلَى الْجَارِيَةِ إِذْ مَرَّ بِي وَ هِيَ جَالِسَةٌ عِنْدَ جَوَارٍ فَصِرْتُ بِتَجْرِبَةِ الْجَارِيَةِ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا
It was narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al Husayn Bin Ali Al Washa, from Hisham who said,
‘I wanted to buy a slave girl for a price, and I wrote to Abu Al-Hassan-asws consulting him-asws regarding that. I waited, but he-asws did not answer me. The next morning he-asws came to the master of the slave girl when he passed by me, and she was seated at the neighbours. He-asws went on to test the slave girl and looked at her’.
قَالَ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيَّ لَا بَأْسَ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي عُمُرِهَا قِلَّةٌ قَالَ فَأَمْسَكْتُ عَنْ شِرَائِهَا فَلَمْ أَخْرُجْ مِنْ مَكَّةَ حَتَّى مَاتَتْ..
He (the narrator) said, ‘Then he-asws returned to his-asws house and wrote to me: ‘There is no problem, if there did not happen to be little in her life-span’. I withheld from buying her, and I had not gone out from Makkah until she died’’.[4]
5- حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ حُكَيْمٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يُونُسَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ قَالَ: اسْتَقْرَضَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ع عن [مِنْ] شِهَابِ بْنِ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ قَالَ وَ كَتَبَ كِتَاباً وَ وَضَعَ عَلَى يَدَيْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ قَالَ إِنْ حَدَثَ بِي حدثة [حَدَثٌ فَخَرِّقْهُ]
It is narrated to us by Muawiya Bin Hukeym, from Ja’far Bin Muhammad Bin Yunus, from Abdul Rahman Bin Al Hajjaj who said,
‘Abu Al-Hassan-asws wanted to demand a loan payback from Shihad Bin Abd Rabbih, and he-asws wrote a letter and placed it upon the hand of Abdul Rahman Bin Hajjaj. He-asws said: ‘If an event (of death) occurs with me-asws, then tear it up’.
قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ فَخَرَجَتْ مِنْ مَكَّةَ فَلَقِيَنِي أَبُو الْحَسَنِ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيَّ بِمِنًى فَقَالَ لِي يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ خَرِّقِ الْكِتَابَ قَالَ فَفَعَلْتُ وَ قَدِمْتُ الْكُوفَةَ فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْ شِهَابٍ فَإِذَا هُوَ قَدْ مَاتَ فِي وَقْتٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِيهِ بَعْثُ الْكِتَابِ..
Abdul Rahman said, ‘I went out from Makkah, and Abu Al-Hassan-asws met me and sent a message to me at Mina. He-asws said to me: ‘O Abdul Rahman! Tear up the letter’. I did so and arrived at Al-Kufa, and I asked about Shihab, and there it was so that he had died during the time the letter had not been sent’’.[5]
6- حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ مَا فَعَلَ أَبُو حَمْزَةَ قَالَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ خَلَّفْتُهُ صَالِحاً فَقَالَ إِذَا رَجَعْتَ إِلَيْهِ فَأَقْرِئْهُ السَّلَامَ وَ أَعْلِمْهُ أَنَّهُ يَمُوتُ يَوْمَ كَذَا وَ كَذَا مِنْ شَهْرِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا
It is narrated to us by Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Moalla Bin Muhammad, from Ahmad Bin Abdullah, from Abdullah Bin Is’haq, from Ali, from Abu Baseer who said,
‘Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘O Abu Muhammad! What happened to Abu Hamza?’ He said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! I left him (and he was) healthy’. He-asws said: ‘When you return to him, then convey the greetings and let him know that he would be dying on such and such a day, from such and such month’.
قَالَ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ لَقَدْ كَانَ فِيهِ أُنْسٌ وَ كَانَ لَكُمْ شِيعَةً قَالَ صَدَقْتَ يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ مَا عِنْدَنَا خَيْرٌ لَهُ قَالَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ شِيعَتُكُمْ
Abu Baseer said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! There was love in him, and he was a Shia of yours-asws’. He-asws said: ‘You speak the truth, O Abu Hamza! What is with us-asws is better for him’. He said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! (For) your-asws Shias?’
قَالَ نَعَمْ إِذَا خَافَ اللَّهَ وَ رَاقَبَهُ وَ تَوَقَّى الذُّنُوبَ فَإِذَا فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ كَانَ مَعَنَا فِي دَرَجَاتِنَا قَالَ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ فَرَجَعْتُ فَمَا لَبِثَ أَبُو حَمْزَةَ حَتَّى هَلَكَ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ.
He-asws said: ‘Yes, when he fears Allah-azwj, and is pious, and fears the sins. When he does that, he would be with us-asws in our-asws levels’. Abu Baseer said, ‘I returned, and it was not long before Abu Hamza died that very time during that very day’’.[6]
7- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الدعشي عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مُوسَى قَالَ: اشْتَكَى عَمِّي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَتَّى أَشْرَفَ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ قَالَ فَكُنَّا مُجْتَمِعِينَ عِنْدَهُ فَدَخَلَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ع فَقَعَدَ فِي نَاحِيَةٍ وَ إِسْحَاقُ عَمِّي عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ يَبْكِي
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Abdullah Bin Saeed al Da’shi, from Al Husayn Bin Musa who said,
‘My uncle Muhammad son of Ja’far-asws complained (of health problems) until he overlooked upon the death. We were gathered in his presence, and Abu Al-Hassan (Musa)-asws entered and sat in a corner, and my uncle Is’haq was crying by his head.
فَقَعَدَ قَلِيلًا ثُمَّ قَامَ فَتَبِعْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ يَلُومُكَ إِخْوَتُكَ وَ أَهْلُ بَيْتِكَ يَقُولُونَ دَخَلْتَ عَلَى عَمِّكَ وَ هُوَ فِي الْمَوْتِ ثُمَّ خَرَجْتَ
He-asws sat for a little while, then stood up. I followed him-asws and said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! Your-asws brothers will blame you-asws. They will be saying, you-asws entered to see your-asws uncle and he was in (the pangs of) death, then you-asws went out’.
قَالَ أَيْ أَخِي أَ رَأَيْتَ هَذَا الْبَاكِيَ سَيَمُوتُ وَ يَبْكِي ذَاكَ عَلَيْهِ
He-asws said: ‘Which brother of mine-asws did I-asws see? This crying one will be dying and that one will be crying upon him (instead)’.
قَالَ فَبَرَأَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَ اشْتَكَى إِسْحَاقُ فَمَاتَ وَ بَكَى مُحَمَّدٌ عَلَيْهِ.
He (the narrator) said, ‘Muhammad son of Ja’far-asws was cured, and Is’haq complained (of health problems), and he died, and Muhammad cried upon him’’.[7]
8- حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَا زَيْدُ كَمْ أَتَى عَلَيْكَ مِنْ سَنَةٍ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ كَذَا سَنَةً قَالَ يَا أَبَا أُسَامَةَ جَدِّدْ عِبَادَةَ رَبِّكَ وَ أَحْدِثْ تَوْبَةً فَبَكَيْتُ فَقَالَ لِي مَا يُبْكِيكَ يَا زَيْدُ قُلْتُ نَعَيْتَ إِلَيَّ نَفْسِي قَالَ يَا زَيْدُ أَبْشِرْ فَإِنَّكَ مِنْ شِيعَتِنَا وَ أَنْتَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ.
It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Sayf Bin Ameyra, from Abu Usama who said,
‘Abu Abdullah-asws said to me: ‘O Zayd! How many years have come upon you?’ I said, ‘May I sacrificed for you-asws! Such and such years’. He-asws said: ‘O Abu Usama! Renew worshipping your Lord-azwj and begin the repentance’. I started crying. He-asws said to me: ‘What makes you cry, O Zayd?’ I said, ‘Your-asws giving the news of my death to myself-asws’. He-asws said: ‘O Zayd! Receive glad tidings, for you are from our-asws Shias, and you will be in the Paradise’’.[8]
9- حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُعَلَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْعَبْدَ الصَّالِحَ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ع يَنْعَى إِلَى رَجُلٍ نَفْسَهُ فَقُلْتُ فِي نَفْسِي وَ إِنَّهُ لَيَعْلَمُ مَتَى يَمُوتُ الرَّجُلُ مِنْ شِيعَتِهِ فَقَالَ شِبْهَ الْمُغْضَبِ يَا إِسْحَاقُ قَدْ كَانَ رُشَيْدٌ الْهَجَرِيُّ يَعْلَمُ عِلْمَ الْمَنَايَا وَ الْبَلَايَا فَالْإِمَامُ أَوْلَى بِذَلِكَ.
It is narrated to us by Abdullah Bin Muhammad, from Ibrahim Bin Muhammad who said, ‘It is narrated to us by Ali Bin Moalla who said, ‘It is narrated to us by Ibn Abu Hamza, from Sayf Bin Ameyra who said,
‘I heard Al-Abd Al-Salih Abu Al-Hassan (Musa)-asws giving the news of death to a man regarding his own self, and he-asws knew when the man from his-asws Shias would be dying. He-asws said resembling the anger: ‘O Is’haq! Rusheyd Al-Hajary had known the knowledge of the deaths and the afflictions, and the Imam-asws is foremost with that’’.[9]
10- حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ نَجِيحٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ إِنَّ أَصْحَابَنَا قَدْ قَدِمُوا مِنَ الْكُوفَةِ فَذَكَرُوا أَنَّ الْمُفَضَّلَ شَدِيدُ الْوَجَعِ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ لَهُ قَالَ قَدِ اسْتَرَاحَ وَ كَانَ هَذَا الْكَلَامُ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهِ بِثَلَاثِ أَيَّامٍ.
It is narrated to us by Ja’far Bin Is’haq, from Usman Bin Ali, from Khalid Bin Najeeh who said,
‘I said, ‘Our companions have arrived from Al-Kufa, and they mentioned that Al-Mufazzal is in severe pain, so supplicate to Allah-azwj for him’. He-asws said: ‘He has rested’, and this talk was after his death by three days’’.[10]
11- وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ خَالِدٍ قَالَ: كُنْتُ مَعَ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع بِمَكَّةَ فَقَالَ مَنْ هَاهُنَا مِنْ أَصْحَابِكُمْ فَعَدَدْتُ عَلَيْهِ ثَمَانِيَةَ أَنْفُسٍ فَأَمَرَ بِإِخْرَاجِ أَرْبَعَةٍ وَ سَكَتَ عَنْ أَرْبَعَةٍ فَمَا كَانَ إِلَّا يَوْمٌ وَ مِنَ الْغَدِ حَتَّى مَاتَ الْأَرْبَعَةُ فَسَلِمُوا.
And from him, from Usman Bin Isa, from Khalid who said,
‘I was with Abu Al-Hassan-asws at Makkah and he-asws said: ‘Who is over here from your companions?’ I counted (them) to him-asws, ‘Eight souls’. He-asws instructed with the extracting four, and he-asws was silent from (the other) four’. It was not even a day and from the morning until the four had died, and they (the other four) were safe’’.[11]
12- حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ سَعْدٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ نَجِيحٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع قَالَ: قَالَ لِي أَفْرِغْ فِيمَا بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ مَعَكَ عَمَلٌ فِي سَنَةِ أَرْبَعٍ وَ سَبْعِينَ وَ مِائَةٍ حَتَّى يَجِيئَكَ كِتَابِي وَ انْظُرْ مَا عِنْدَكَ و ما بعث [فَابْعَثْ] بِهِ إِلَيَّ وَ لَا تَقْبَلْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ شَيْئاً وَ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ وَ بَقِيَ خَالِدٌ بِمَكَّةَ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ يَوْماً ثُمَّ مَاتَ.
It is narrated to us by Ja’far Bin Is’haq, from Sa’ad, from usman Bin Isa, from Khalid Bin Najeeh,
‘From Abu Al-Hassan-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws said to me: ‘Vacate between you and the one who has worked with you in the year one hundred and seventy-four, until my-asws letter comes to you, and look at what is with you and what has been sent, so send it to me-asws with him, and do not accept anything from anyone’. He-asws went out to Al-Medina and Khalid remained Al-Makkah for fifteen days, then died’’.[12]
13- حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ: كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع وَ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ع يَا فُلَانُ إِنَّكَ تَمُوتُ إِلَى شَهْرٍ
It is narrated to us by Al Hassan Bin Ali Bin Fazzal, from Muawiya, from Is’haq who said,
‘I was in the presence of Abu Al-Hassan-asws and a man entered to see him-asws. Abu Al-Hassan-asws said to him: ‘O so and so! You will be dying in a month’.
قَالَ فَأَضْمَرْتُ فِي نَفْسِي كَأَنَّهُ يَعْلَمُ آجَالَ شِيعَتِهِ قَالَ يَا إِسْحَاقُ وَ مَا تُنْكِرُونَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَ قَدْ كَانَ رُشَيْدٌ الْهَجَرِيُّ مُسْتَضْعَفاً وَ كَانَ يَعْلَمُ عِلْمَ الْمَنَايَا وَ الْبَلَايَا فَالْإِمَامُ أَوْلَى بِذَلِكَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘I thought within myself, ‘It is as if he-asws knows the terms (life-spans) of his-asws Shias’. He-asws said: ‘O Is’haq! What are you denying from that, and Rusheyd Al-Hajary was weak, and he was knowing the knowledge of the deaths and the afflictions, and the Imam-asws is foremost with that’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا إِسْحَاقُ تَمُوتُ إِلَى سَنَتَيْنِ وَ يُشَتَّتُ أَهْلُكَ وَ وُلْدُكَ وَ عِيَالُكَ وَ أَهْلُ بَيْتِكَ وَ يُفْلِسُونَ إِفْلَاساً شَدِيداً.
Then he-asws said: ‘O Is’haq! You will be dying in two years, and your wife, and your children, and your dependants, and your family members will disperse and they would be impoverished with severe poverty’’.[13]
14- حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ مُيَسِّرٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَا مُيَسِّرُ لَقَدْ زِيدَ فِي عُمُرِكَ فَأَيُّ شَيْءٍ تَعْمَلُ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَجِيراً وَ أَنَا غُلَامٌ بِخَمْسَةِ دَرَاهِمَ فَكُنْتُ أُجْرِيهَا عَلَى حَالِي.
It is narrated to us by Yaqoub Bin Yazeed, from Ibn Abu Umery, from Hisham Bin Al Hakam, from Muyasser who said,
‘Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘O Muyasser! There has been an increase in your life-span, so which thing did you do?’ He said, ‘I was hired for five Dirhams when I was a young boy, so I paid his wages (cleared my account)’’.[14]
15- حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِي الصَّبَّاحِ عَنْ زَيْدٍ الشَّحَّامِ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَقَالَ يَا زَيْدُ جَدِّدْ عِبَادَةً وَ أَحْدِثْ تَوْبَةً قَالَ نَعَيْتَ إِلَيَّ نَفْسِي جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ
It is narrated by Al Hassan Bin Ali, from Abu Al Sabbah, from Zayd Al Shaham who said,
‘I entered to see Abu Abdullah-asws and he-asws said: ‘O Zayd! Renew the worship and begin repenting’. He said, ‘Are you-asws giving me the news of my own death? May I be sacrificed for you-asws!’
قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي يَا زَيْدُ مَا عِنْدَنَا خَيْرٌ لَكَ وَ أَنْتَ مِنْ شِيعَتِنَا قَالَ وَ قُلْتُ وَ كَيْفَ لِي أَنَا أَكُونُ مِنْ شِيعَتِكُمْ
He (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws said to me: ‘O Zayd! What is with us-asws is better for you, and you are from our-asws Shias’. And I said, ‘And how can it be for me that I would happen to be from your-asws Shias?’
قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي أَنْتَ مِنْ شِيعَتِنَا إِلَيْنَا الصِّرَاطُ وَ الْمِيزَانُ وَ حِسَابُ شِيعَتِنَا وَ اللَّهِ لَأَنَا أَرْحَمُ بِكُمْ مِنْكُمْ بِأَنْفُسِكُمْ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْكَ وَ رَفِيقِكَ فِي دَرَجَتِكَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ.
He (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws said to me: ‘You are from our-asws Shias, to us-asws is the Bridge, and the Scale, and the Reckoning of our-asws Shias. By Allah-azwj! We-asws would be more merciful with you all than you are with yourselves. It is as if I-asws am looking at you and your friend in my-asws level in the Paradise’’.[15]

It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Al Husayn, from Al hassan bin Barra, from usman Bin Isa who said,
‘I entered to see Abu Al-Hassan-asws in the year of the death (plague) at Makkah, and it is the year one hundred and seventy-four. He-asws said to me: ‘Who from your companions is sick over here?’ I said, ‘Usman Bin Isa is with the most pain from the people’. He-asws said: ‘Tell him to go out’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ مَنْ هَاهُنَا فَعَدَدْتُ عَلَيْهِ ثَمَانِيَةً فَأَمَرَنَا بِإِخْرَاجِ أَرْبَعَةٍ وَ كَفَّ عَنْ أَرْبَعَةٍ فَمَا أَمْسَيْنَا مِنْ غَدٍ حَتَّى دَفَنَّا الْأَرْبَعَةَ الَّذِينَ كَفَّ عَنْ إِخْرَاجِهِمْ فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ فَخَرَجْتُ أَنَا فَأَصْبَحْتُ مُعَافاً.
Then he-asws said: ‘Who are over here?’ I counted eight to him-asws. He-asws instructed us with four of us to go out and refrained from (the other) four. We had not come to the evening from the morning until we buried those four, he-asws had refrained from their going out. Usman said, ‘I went out and became healthy’’.[16]

I said, ‘I want to return to what I used to be’. He-asws wiped upon my eyes, and I returned to what I used to be.

I said, ‘I ask you-asws about so and so, and so and so (Abu Bakr & Umar)’. He-asws said: ‘Upon them both is Curse of Allah-azwj. By Allah-azwj! They died and they were both Kafirs, Polytheists with Allah-azwj the Magnificent!’
ثُمَّ قُلْتُ- الْأَئِمَّةُ يُحْيُونَ الْمَوْتَى وَ يُبْرِءُونَ الْأَكْمَهَ وَ الْأَبْرَصَ وَ يَمْشُونَ عَلَى الْمَاءِ قَالَ مَا أَعْطَى اللَّهُ نَبِيّاً شَيْئاً قَطُّ إِلَّا وَ قَدْ أَعْطَاهُ مُحَمَّداً ص وَ أَعْطَاهُ مَا لَمْ يَكُنْ عِنْدَهُمْ
Then I said, ‘The Imams-asws can revive the dead, and cure the blind and the leper, and walk upon the water?’ He-asws said: ‘Allah-azwj did not Give any Prophet-saww anything at all except that He-azwj Gave it to Muhammad-saww, and (also) Gave him-saww was did not happen to be with them-as’.
قُلْتُ وَ كُلُّ مَا كَانَ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَدْ أَعْطَاهُ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع قَالَ نَعَمْ ثُمَّ الْحَسَنَ وَ الْحُسَيْنَ ثُمَّ مِنْ بَعْدُ كُلَّ إِمَامٍ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَ الزِّيَادَةِ الَّتِي تَحْدُثُ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ وَ فِي كُلِّ شَهْرٍ إِي وَ اللَّهِ فِي كُلِّ سَاعَةٍ.
I said, ‘And all what was with Rasool-Allah-saww, he-saww gave it to Amir Al-Momineen-asws?’ He-asws said: ‘Yes, then Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws, then from afterwards, every Imam-asws up to the Day of Qiyamah with the increase which occurs during every year, and during every month. Yes, by Allah-azwj, during every moment’’.[34]
3- حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَعْبَدٍ يَرْفَعُهُ قَالَ: دَخَلَتْ حَبَابَةُ الْوَالِبِيَّةُ عَلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع قَالَ يَا حَبَابَةُ مَا الَّذِي أَبْطَأَكِ
It is narrated to us by Ibrahim Bin hashim, from Ali Bin Ma’bad, raising it, said, ‘Hababat Al Walibiya entered to see Abu Ja’far Muhammad Bin Ali-asws. He-asws said: ‘O Hababat! What is that which delayed you (in coming)?’
قَالَتْ قُلْتُ بَيَاضٌ عَرَضَ لِي فِي مَفْرِقِ رَأْسِي كَثُرَتْ لَهُ هُمُومِي فَقَالَ يَا حَبَابَةُ أَدْنِينِيهِ قَالَ فَدَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ فِي مَفْرِقِ رَأْسِي ثُمَّ قَالَ ائْتُوا لَهَا بِالْمِرْآةِ فَأُتِيتُ الْمِرْآةَ فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا شَعْرُ مَفْرِقِ رَأْسِي قَدِ اسْوَدَّ فَسُرِرْتُ بِذَلِكَ وَ سُرَّ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع بِسُرُورِي.
She said, ‘I said, ‘Whiteness has presented to me in different parts of my head. It being a lot has concerned me’. He-asws said: ‘O Hababat, allow me-asws’. I went near him-asws, and he-asws placed his-asws hand in the different parts of my head, then said: ‘Bring her a mirror!’ The mirror was brought. I looked, and there, the hair in different parts of my head had turned black due to that, and Abu Ja’far-asws was happy at my happiness’’.[35]
4- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَبَلَةَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ: حَجَجْتُ مَعَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَلَمَّا كُنَّا فِي الطَّوَافِ قُلْتُ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لِهَذَا الْخَلْقِ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا بَصِيرٍ إِنَّ أَكْثَرَ مَنْ تَرَى قِرَدَةٌ وَ خَنَازِيرُ
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Al Husayn. From Abdullah Bin Jabala, from Ali Bin Abu Hamza, from Abu Baseer who said,
‘I performed Hajj with Abu Abdullah-asws. When we were in the Tawaaf, I said to him-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! May Allah-azwj Forgive (the sins) for these people’. He-asws said: ‘O Abu Baseer! Most of ones you see are monkeys and pigs’.
قَالَ قُلْتُ لَهُ أَرِنِيهِمْ قَالَ فَتَكَلَّمَ بِكَلِمَاتٍ ثُمَّ أَمَرَّ يَدَهُ عَلَى بَصَرِي فَرَأَيْتُهُمْ قِرَدَةً وَ خَنَازِيرَ فَهَالَنِي ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ أَمَرَّ يَدَهُ عَلَى بَصَرِي فَرَأَيْتُهُمْ كَمَا كَانُوا فِي الْمَرَّةِ الْأُولَى
He (the narrator) said, ‘I said to him-asws, ‘Show them to me’. He-asws spoke certain phrases, then he-asws passed his-asws hand upon my eyes, and I saw them as monkeys, and pigs. That terrified me. Then he-asws passed his-asws hand upon my eyes, and I saw them just as they were in the first time.
ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ أَنْتُمْ فِي الْجَنَّةِ تُحْبَرُونَ وَ بَيْنَ أَطْبَاقِ النَّارِ تُطْلَبُونَ فَلَا تُوجَدُونَ وَ اللَّهِ لَا يَجْتَمِعُ فِي النَّارِ مِنْكُمْ ثَلَاثَةٌ لَا وَ اللَّهِ وَ لَا اثْنَانِ لَا وَ اللَّهِ وَ لَا وَاحِدٌ.
Then he-asws said: ‘O Abu Muhammad! You (Shias) would be in the Paradise, being delighted. By Allah-azwj! No three of you would be gathered in the Fire. No, by Allah-azwj, not even two. No, by Allah-azwj, not even one’’.[36]
5- حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ الْمُخْتَارِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَنْظُرَ بِعَيْنِكَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَمَسَحَ يَدَهُ عَلَى عَيْنِي فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ.
It is narrated to us by Ahmad in Muhammad, from Al Abbas, from Hammad Bin Isa, from Al Husayn Bin Al Mukhtar, from Abu Baseer who said,
‘Abu Abdullah-asws said to me: ‘Do you want to look with your own eyes to the sky?’ I said, ‘Yes’. He-asws wiped his-asws hand upon my eyes and I looked at the sky’’.[37]
6- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ سَعْدَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ صَبَّاحٍ الْمُزَنِيِّ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ مِيثَمٍ الْأَسَدِيِّ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَ عَبَايَةُ بْنُ رِبْعِيٍّ عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ فِي بَنِي وَالِبَةَ قَدِ احْتَرَقَ وَجْهُهَا مِنَ السُّجُودِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبَايَةُ يَا حَبَابَةُ هَذَا ابْنُ أَخِيكِ قَالَتْ وَ أَيُّ أَخٍ قَالَ صَالِحُ بْنُ مِيثَمٍ
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Musa Bin Sa’dan, from Abdullah Bin Al Qasim, from Sabah Al Muzny, from Salih Bin Maysam al Asady who said,
‘I and Abayat Bin Rabie entered to see a woman in the clan of Waliba whose face was torn from the Sajdahs. Abayat said to him (her), ‘O Hababat! This is the son of your brother’. She said, ‘And which brother?’ He said, ‘Salih Bin Maysam’.
قَالَتْ ابْنُ أَخِي وَ اللَّهِ حَقّاً يَا ابْنَ أَخِي أَ لَا أُحَدِّثُكَ حَدِيثاً سَمِعْتُهُ مِنَ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع قَالَ قُلْتُ بَلَى يَا عَمَّةُ
She said, ‘A son of my brother, by Allah-azwj! O son of my brother! Shall I narrate a Hadeeth to you I heard from Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws?’ I said, ‘Yes, O aunt’.
قَالَتْ كُنْتُ زَوَّارَةَ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع قَالَتْ فَحَدَثَ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيَّ وَضَحٌ فَشَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَيَّ وَ احْتَبَسْتُ عَلَيْهِ أَيَّاماً فَسَأَلَ عَنِّي مَا فَعَلَتْ حَبَابَةُ الْوَالِبِيَّةُ فَقَالُوا إِنَّهَا حَدَثَ [بِهَا حَدَثٌ] بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهَا
She said, ‘I was visiting Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws. A clearness occurred in between my eyes, that was grievous upon me, and I stayed locked up due to it, for days. He-asws asked about me, ‘What happened to Hababat Al-Walibiya?’ They said, ‘A clearness has occurred between her eyes’.
فَقَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ قُومُوا إِلَيْهَا فَجَاءَ مَعَ أَصْحَابِهِ حَتَّى دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ وَ أَنَا فِي مَسْجِدِي هَذَا فَقَالَ يَا حَبَابَةُ مَا أَبْطَأَ بِكِ عَلَيَّ قُلْتُ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مَا ذَاكَ الَّذِي مَنَعَنِي إِنْ لَمْ أَكُنْ اضْطُرِرْتُ إِلَى الْمَجِيءِ إِلَيْكَ اضْطِرَاراً لَكِنْ حَدَثَ هَذَا بِي
He-asws said to his-asws companion: ‘Arise to go to her!’ He-asws came with his-asws companions until he-asws entered to see me, and I was in this praying place of mine. He-asws said: ‘O Hababat! What delayed you to (come to see) me-asws?’ I said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! That which prevented me was not that I was not restless to come to you-asws, but this has occurred with me’.
قال [قَالَتْ] فَكَشَفْتُ الْقِنَاعَ فَتَفَلَ عَلَيْهِ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ع فَقَالَ يَا حَبَابَةُ أَحْدِثِي لِلَّهِ شُكْراً فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ دَرَأَهُ عَنْكِ قَالَ فَخَرَرْتُ سَاجِدَةً قَالَتْ فَقَالَ يَا حَبَابَةُ ارْفَعِي رَأْسَكِ وَ انْظُرِي فِي مِرْآتِكِ
She said, ‘I uncovered the scarf, and Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws applied his-asws saliva upon it and said: ‘O Hababat! Begin thanking Allah-azwj, for Allah-azwj has staved it away from you’. I fell down in Sajdah. He-asws said: ‘O Hababat! Raise your head and look in your mirror!’
قَالَتْ فَرَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي فَلَمْ أُحِسَّ مِنْهُ شَيْئاً قَالَ فَحَمِدْتُ اللَّهَ
She said, ‘I raised my head, and there was nothing more beautiful than it, so I praised Allah-azwj’’.
قَالَتْ فَقَالَ الْحُسَيْنُ أَوْ مَنْ رَوَاهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ بزة [بَرَّةَ] عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ بزة [بَرَّةَ] بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ أَبَانٍ الْأَحْمَرِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَقُلْتُ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ مَا فَضْلُنَا عَلَى مَنْ خَالَفَنَا فَوَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَرَى الرَّجُلَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ هُوَ أَرْخَى بَالًا وَ أَنْعَمُ رِيَاشاً وَ أَحْسَنُ حَالًا
She said, ‘Al Husayn said, or the one who reported it, from Ahmad who said, ‘It is narrated to me by Al Husayn Bin Bazah, from Ismail Bin Bazah Bin Abdul Aziz, from Aban Al Ahmar, from Abu Baseer who said,
‘I entered to see Abu Abdullah-asws and said to him-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! What is our merit over the ones who oppose us? By Allah-azwj! I see the man from them, one who is relaxed of mind, and bountiful of life, and of good state’.
قَالَ فَسَكَتَ عَنِّي حَتَّى إِذَا كُنْتُ بِالْأَبْطَحِ أَبْطَحِ مَكَّةَ وَ رَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ يَضِجُّونَ إِلَى اللَّهِ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ مَا أَكْثَرَ الضَّجِيجَ وَ الْعَجِيجَ وَ أَقَلَّ الْحَجِيجَ وَ الَّذِي بَعَثَ مُحَمَّداً ص بِالنُّبُوَّةِ وَ عَجَّلَ رُوحَهُ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ مَا يَتَقَبَّلُ اللَّهُ إِلَّا مِنْكَ وَ مِنْ أَشْبَاهِكَ خَاصَّةً
He (the narrator) said, ‘He was silent from me until when I was at the plains, plains of Makkah, and I saw the people clamouring to Allah-azwj. He-asws said to me: ‘O Abu Muhammad! How much is the shouting and yelling, and how few are the pilgrims! By the One-azwj Who Sent Muhammad-saww with the Prophet-hood, and Hastened his-saww soul to the Paradise, Allah-azwj will not Accept except from you (Shias), and from the ones who resemble you in particular’.
وَ مَسَحَ يَدَهُ عَلَى وَجْهِي وَ قَالَ يَا أَبَا بَصِيرٍ انْظُرْ قَالَ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِالْخَلْقِ كَلْبٌ وَ خِنْزِيرٌ وَ حِمَارٌ إِلَّا رَجُلٌ بَعْدَ رَجُلٍ.
And he-asws wiped his-asws hand upon my face, and said: ‘O Abu Baseer, look!’ He said, ‘There I was (looking) are the creatures, dogs, and pigs, and donkeys, except a man, after a man (here and there)’’.[38]
7- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ سَعْدَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ: تَجَسَّسْتُ جَسَدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَ مَنَاكِبَهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ تُحِبُّ أَنْ تَرَانِي فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Musa Bin Sa’dan, from his father, from Abu Baseer who said,
‘I (being blind) tried to feel the body of Abu Abdullah-asws and his-asws shoulders. He-asws said: ‘O Abu Muhammad! Would you like to see me-asws?’ I said, ‘Yes, may I be sacrificed for you-asws!’
قَالَ فَمَسَحَ يَدَهُ عَلَى عَيْنِي فَإِذَا أَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ لَوْ لَا شُهْرَةُ النَّاسِ لَتَرَكْتُكَ بَصِيراً عَلَى حَالِكَ وَ لَكِنْ لَا تَسْتَقِيمُ قَالَ ثُمَّ مَسَحَ يَدَهُ عَلَى عَيْنِي فَإِذَا أَنَا كَمَا كُنْتُ.
He (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws wipes his-asws hand upon my eyes, and there I was, looking at him-asws. He-asws said: ‘O Abu Muhammad! Had it not been for the publicity, I-asws would have left you upon your seeing state, upon your (current) state, but you will not remain on straight path’. Then he-asws wiped his-asws hand upon my eyes, and there I was, just as I used to be’’.[39]
8- حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ نُوحٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي حَمَّادُ بْنُ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَوْفٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَأَلْطَفَنِي وَ قَالَ إِنَّ رَجُلًا مَكْفُوفَ الْبَصَرِ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ص فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص ادْعُ اللَّهَ لِي أَنْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ بَصَرِي وَ قَالَ فَدَعَى اللَّهَ لَهُ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ بَصَرَهُ
It is narrated to us by Ayoub Bin Nuh, from Safwan Bin Yahya who said, ‘It is narrated to me by Hammad Bin Abu Talha, from Abu Awf,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘I entered to see him-asws, and he-asws turned courteously towards me and said: ‘A blind, blind of sight, came to the Prophet-saww and said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Supplicate to Allah-azwj for me that He-azwj Returns my sight to me’. He-saww supplicated to Allah-azwj for him, and his sight was returned.
ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ آخَرُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص ادْعُ اللَّهَ لِي أَنْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ بَصَرِي قَالَ فَقَالَ الْجَنَّةُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ أن [أَوْ] يَرُدُّ عَلَيْكَ بَصَرُكَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ إِنَّ ثَوَابَهَا الْجَنَّةُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ أَكْرَمُ مِنْ أَنْ يَبْتَلِيَ عَبْدَهُ الْمُؤْمِنَ بِذَهَابِ بَصَرِهِ ثُمَّ لَا يُثِيبُهُ الْجَنَّةَ.
Then another one came and said, ‘Supplicate to Allah-azwj for me that He-azwj Returns my sight to me’. He-saww said: ‘Is the Paradise more beloved to you or the return of your sight?’ He said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! And, it is Reward, the Paradise?’ He-saww said: ‘Allah-azwj is more Benevolent than to Try His-azwj Momin servant with the loss of his sight, then He-azwj does not Reward him with the Paradise’’.[40]
4 باب في أن الأئمة ع أحيوا الموتى بإذن الله تعالى
CHAPTER 4 – REGARDING THAT THE IMAMS-asws ARE REVIVING THE DEAD BY THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH-azwj THE EXALTED
1- حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ قَالَ: كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَدَخَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ امْرَأَةٌ فَذَكَرَتْ أَنَّهَا تَرَكَتِ ابْنَهَا بِالْمِلْحَفَةِ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ مَيِّتاً
It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Umar Bin Abdul Aziz, from Jameel Bin Darraj who said,
‘I was in the presence of Abu Abdullah-asws, and a woman entered to see him-asws, and she mentioned that she had left her son with the quilt upon his face, dead’.
قَالَ لَهَا لَعَلَّهُ لَمْ يَمُتْ فَقُومِي فَاذْهَبِي إِلَى بَيْتِكِ وَ اغْتَسِلِي وَ صَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَ ادْعِي وَ قُولِي يَا مَنْ وَهَبَهُ لِي وَ لَمْ يَكُ شَيْئاً جَدِّدْ لِي هِبَتَهُ ثُمَّ حَرِّكِيهِ وَ لَا تُخْبِرِي بِذَلِكَ أَحَداً
He-asws said to her: ‘Perhaps he has not died. Arise and go to your house and wash, and pray two Cycles (Salat), and supplicate, and say, ‘O One-azwj Who Granted him to me, and it was not something new He-azwj had Granted to me’. Then move (shake) him, and do not inform anyone with that’.
قَالَ فَفَعَلَتْ فَجَاءَتْ فَحَرَّكَتْهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ قَدْ بَكَى.
He (the narrator) said, ‘She did so. She came and shook him, and there he was, crying’’.[41]
2- حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ قَالَ: مَرَّ الْعَبْدُ الصَّالِحُ ع بِامْرَأَةٍ بِمِنًى وَ هِيَ تَبْكِي وَ صِبْيَانُهَا حَوْلَهَا يَبْكُونَ وَ قَدْ مَاتَتْ بَقَرَةٌ لَهَا فَدَنَا مِنْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهَا مَا يُبْكِيكِ يَا أَمَةَ اللَّهِ
It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali bin Al Hakam, from Ali Bin Al Mugheira who said,
‘Al-Abd Al-Salih (7th Imam-asws) passed by a woman at Mina, and she was crying and her children were crying around, and a cow of hers had died. He-asws approached her, then said so her: ‘What makes you cry, O maid of Allah-azwj?’
قَالَتْ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ لِي صِبْيَاناً أَيْتَاماً فَكَانَتْ لِي بَقَرَةٌ مَعِيشَتِي وَ مَعِيشَةُ صِبْيَانِي كَانَ مِنْهَا فَقَدْ مَاتَتْ وَ بَقِيتُ مُنْقَطِعَةً بِي وَ بِوُلْدِي وَ لَا حِيلَةَ لَنَا
She said, ‘O servant of Allah-azwj! There are orphaned children for me, and there used to be a cow for me for my livelihood, and the livelihood of my children was from it. It has died, and there has remained a termination with me and my children, and there is no (other) means for us’.
فَقَالَ لَهَا يَا أَمَةَ اللَّهِ هَلْ لَكِ أَنْ أُحْيِيَهَا لَكِ قَالَتْ فَأُلْهِمَتْ أَنْ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ قَالَ فَتَنَحَّى نَاحِيَةً فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ يمينة [يَمْنَةً] وَ حَرَّكَ شَفَتَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَمَرَّ بِالْبَقَرَةِ فَنَخَسَهَا نَخْساً أَوْ ضَرَبَهَا بِرِجْلِهِ فَاسْتَوَتْ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ قَائِمَةً
He-asws said to her: ‘O maid of Allah-azwj! Would it be (better) for you if I-asws were to revive it?’ She said, ‘I have been inspired to say yes, O Abu Abdullah-asws!’ He-asws went aside to a corner and prayed two Cycles (Salat), then raised his-asws right hand and moved his-asws lips. Then he-asws stood up and passed by the cow and prodded it with a prodding, or hit it with his-asws left, and it sat up evenly upon the ground.
فَلَمَّا نَظَرْتِ الْمَرْأَةُ إِلَى الْبَقَرَةِ قَدْ قَامَتْ صَاحَتْ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ وَ رَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ
When the woman looked at the cow to have stood up, she shouted: ‘Isa-as Bin Maryam-as, by Lord-azwj of the Kabah!’

He (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws mingled with the people and came to be between them. May the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon him-asws and upon his-asws forefathers-asws, the pure ones’’.[42]
3- حَدَّثَنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ خَطَّابٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ شَلَقَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَقُولُ إِنَّ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيّاً ع كَانَتْ لَهُ خُئُولَةٌ فِي بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ وَ إِنَّ شَابّاً مِنْهُمْ أَتَاهُ فَقَالَ يَا خَالِي إِنَّ أَخِي وَ ابْنِ أَبِي مَاتَ وَ قَدْ حَزِنْتُ عَلَيْهِ حُزْناً شَدِيداً قَالَ فَتَشْتَهِي أَنْ تَرَاهُ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَأَرِنِي قَبْرَهُ
It is narrated by Salama Bin Khattab, from Abdullah Bin Al Qasim, from isa Bin Shalqan who said,
‘I heard Abu Abdullah-asws saying: ‘Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws, there was a maternal aunt for him-asws in the clan of Makhzum, and a youth from them came to him-asws and said, ‘O my maternal uncle-asws! My brother and son of my father, has died, and I have grieved upon him with severe grief’. He-asws said: ‘Would you like to see him?’ He said, ‘Yes’. He-asws said: ‘Show me his grave’.
فَخَرَجَ وَ مَعَهُ بُرْدُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص الْمُسْتَجَابُ فَلَمَّا انْتَهَى إِلَى الْقَبْرِ تَمَلْمَلَتْ شَفَتَاهُ ثُمَّ رَكَضَهُ بِرِجْلِهِ فَخَرَجَ مِنْ قَبْرِهِ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ رميكا بِلِسَانِ الْفُرْسِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ أَ لَمْ تَمُتْ وَ أَنْتَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ قَالَ بَلَى وَ لَكِنَّا مِتْنَا عَلَى سُنَّةِ فُلَانٍ فَانْقَلَبَتْ أَلْسِنَتُنَا.
He-asws went out and with him-asws was a cloak of Rasool-Allah-saww, the Answered. When he-asws ended up to the grave, he-asws moved his-asws lips, then prodded it with his-asws leg, and he came out from his grave, and he was speaking fluently in Persian. Ali-asws said to him: ‘Did you not die and you were a man from the Arabs?’ He said, ‘Yes, but we died upon the sunnah of so and so, (and so and so – Abu Bakr and Umar), so our language was overturned’’.[43]

It is narrated to us by Al Abbas Bin Marouf, from Ali Bin Mahziyar, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Ali Bin Ismail Al Maysami, from Kareem who said, ‘I heard the one who reported it say,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww was seated and the meat was mentioned and his-saww desire to it. A man from the Helpers stood up and for him was a young female goat. He ended to his wife and said, ‘Is there any booty for you regarding me?’ She said, ‘And what is that?’ He said, ‘I heard Rasool-Allah-saww desiring the meat’. She said, ‘Take it’, and there did not happen to be for them other than it, and Rasool-Allah-saww used to recognise it.

When he came with it, she slaughtered it and grilled it and placed it for the Prophet-saww. He-saww said to them: ‘Eat and do not break any bone’. The Helper returned (home), there it was playing by his door’’.[44]

Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘And you used to love her?’ He said, ‘Yes, may I be sacrificed for you-asws!’ He-asws said: ‘Return to you house, and you will be returning to a house and she would be eating something’.
قَالَ فَلَمَّا رَجَعْتُ مِنْ حَجَّتِي وَ دَخَلْتُ مَنْزِلِي رَأَيْتُهَا قَاعِدَةً وَ هِيَ تَأْكُلُ.
He (the narrator) said, ‘When I returned from my Hajj and entered my house, I saw her seated and she was eating’’.[45]

‘Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘When Abu Bakr became caliph, Umar came to Ali-asws and said, ‘Don’t you-asws know that Abu Bakr has become caliph?’ Ali-asws said: ‘So, who made him to be like that?’ He said, ‘The Muslims are pleased with that’.

Ali-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! How quickly they have opposed Rasool-Allah-saww and broke his-saww pact, and they have named him (Abu Bakr) with other than his name (Amir Al Momineen). By Allah-azwj! Rasool-Allah-azwj did not make him to be the caliph’.

He went with him-asws until they came to the grave, and there was a hand in it: ‘Are you committing Kufr with the One Who Created you from dust, then from a seed, then Completed you as a man?

He said, ‘And how can it be for me to be with Rasool-Allah-azwj until he-saww lets me know that? If he-saww were to come to me in the dream and informs me, I would accept that’. Ali-asws said: ‘I-asws shall take you to see Rasool-Allah-saww in Masjid Quba’.

It is narrate to me by Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Al Hakam Bin Al Miskeen, from Abu Saeed Al Mukary,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws came to Abu Bakr and said to him: ‘Didn’t Rasool-Allah-saww order you to obey me-asws?’ He said, ‘No, and had he ordered me, I would have done so’.
قَالَ فَانْطَلِقْ بِنَا إِلَى مَسْجِدِ قُبَاءَ فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يُصَلِّي فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي قُلْتُ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ أَمَرَكَ اللَّهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ أَنْ تُطِيعَنِي فَقَالَ لَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص قَدْ أَمَرْتُكَ فَأَطِعْهُ
He-asws said: ‘Then let us go to Masjid Quba’, and there was Rasool-Allah-saww praying Salat. When he finished, Ali-asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! I-asws said to Abu Bakr: ‘Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-Allah-saww had Commanded you to obey me-asws’. He said, ‘No’. Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘I-saww had ordered you-asws, so obey him-asws!’
قَالَ فَخَرَجَ فَلَقِيَ عُمَرَ وَ هُوَ ذَعِرٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا لَكَ فَقَالَ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص كَذَا وَ كَذَا فَقَالَ تَبّاً لِأُمَّةٍ وَلَّوْكَ أَمْرَهُمْ أَ مَا تَعْرِفُ سِحْرَ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ.
He-asws said: ‘He (Abu Bakr) went out and Umar met him, and he had been terrified. He said to him, ‘What is the matter with you?’ He said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said such and such to me’. He said, ‘Damn the community making you their ruler. Do you not recognise the sorcery of the Clan of Hashim-as?’’[54]

It is narrated to us by Al Hajjal, from Al Hassan Bin Al Husayn Al Luluie, from Ibn Sinan, from Ali Bin Abu Hamza, from Imran Bin Abu Shu’ba Al Halby, from Aban Bin Taghlib,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Ali-asws met Abu Bakr. He-asws said: ‘O Abu Bakr! Don’t you know that Rasool-Allah-saww had ordered you: ‘Greet unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’, and ordered you to follow me-asws?’
قَالَ فَأَقْبَلَ يَتَوَهَّمُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ اجْعَلْ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَكَ حَكَماً قَالَ قَدْ رَضِيتُ فَاجْعَلْ مَنْ شِئْتَ قَالَ أَجْعَلُ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص
He (Abu Abdullah-asws) said: ‘He thought of killing him-asws’. He-asws said to him: ‘Make a judge to be between me-asws and you’. He said, ‘I have agreed, make whoever you-asws like to’. He-asws said: ‘I-asws make Rasool-Allah-saww to be between me-asws and you’.
قَالَ فَاغْتَنَمَهَا الْآخَرُ وَ قَالَ قَدْ رَضِيتُ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ فَذَهَبَ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ قُبَا قَالَ فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص قَاعِدٌ فِي مَوْضِعِ الْمِحْرَابِ فَقَالَ لَهُ هَذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ
He (Abu Abdullah-asws) said: ‘The other one seized upon that and said, ‘I agree!’ He-asws grabbed his hand and went to Masjid Quba, and there was Rasool-Allah-azwj in the place of the prayer niche. He-asws said to him: ‘This is Rasool-Allah-azwj, O Abu Bakr!’
فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَ لَمْ آمُرْكَ بِالتَّسْلِيمِ لِعَلِيٍّ وَ اتِّبَاعِهِ قَالَ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص قَالَ فَارْفَعِ الْأَمْرَ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص
Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O Abu Bakr! Did I-saww not order you with the submitting to Ali-asws and following him-asws?’ He said, ‘Yes, O Rasool-Allah-saww!’ He-saww said: ‘Rais (hand over) the command to him-asws’. He said, ‘Yes, O Rasool-Allah-saww!’
فَجَاءَ فَلَيْسَ هِمَّتُهُ إِلَّا ذَلِكَ وَ هُوَ كَئِيبٌ قَالَ فَلَقِيَ عُمَرَ قَالَ مَا لَكَ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ قَالَ لَقِيتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص وَ أَمَرَنِي بِدَفْعِ هَذِهِ الْأُمُورِ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ ع فَقَالَ أَ مَا تَعْرِفُ سِحْرَ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ هَذَا سِحْرٌ قَالَ الْأَمْرُ عَلَى مَا كَانَ.
He came (back) and there was no concern for him except that and he was gloomy. He met Umar. He said, ‘What is the matter, O Abu Bakr?’ He said, ‘I met Rasool-Allah-saww and he-saww ordered me to hand over this command to Ali-asws’. He said, ‘Do you not recognise the sorcery of the Clan of Hashim-as? This is sorcery’. He said, ‘The command shall be upon what it has been’’.[55]

It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam. From Rabie Bin Muhammad, from Abdullah Sinan,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws said to Abu Bakr: ‘You have forgotten your greeting to me-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’ by a Command from Ali-asws and His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ He said, ‘That has happened’.
فَقَالَ لَهُ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَ تَرْضَى بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَكَ قَالَ وَ أَيْنَ هُوَ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ قُبَا فَدَخَلَا فَوَجَدَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص يُصَلِّي فَجَلَسَا حَتَّى فَرَغَ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ سَلِّمْ لِعَلِيٍّ ع مَا تَوَكَّدْتَهُ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَ مِنْ رَسُولِهِ
Amir Al-Momineen-asws said to him: ‘Will you agree with Rasool-Allah-saww (to be a judge) between me-asws and you?’ He said, ‘And where is he-saww?’ He-asws grabbed his hand, then went to Masjid Quba, and they entered and found Rasool-Allah-azwj seated. When he-saww was free, he-saww said: ‘O Abu Bakr! Greet to Ali-asws what you had been emphasised with, from Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww’.
قَالَ فَرَجَعَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَصَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَقَالَ مَنْ يَأْخُذُهَا بِمَا فِيهَا فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع مَنْ جُدِعَ أَنْفُهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ وَ خَلَا بِهِ وَ مَا دَعَاكَ إِلَى هَذَا قَالَ إِنَّ عَلِيّاً ذَهَبَ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ قُبَا فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أُسَلِّمَ الْأَمْرَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَ مَا تَعْرِفُ سِحْرَ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ.
He-asws said: ‘Abu Bakr returned and ascended the pulpit. He said, ‘Who will take it with whatever is in it?’ Ali-asws said: ‘One whose nose is cut’. Umar said to him, ‘You are vacating it, and what called you to this?’ He said, ‘Ali-asws went to Masjid Quba and there was Rasool-Allah-saww was standing, praying Salat. He-saww ordered me to submit the command to him-asws’. He said, ‘Glory be to Allah-azwj, O Abu Bakr! Don’t you recognise the sorcery of the Clan of Hashim-as?’’[56]

It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from one of our companions, from Al Qasim Bin Muhammad, from Is’haq Bin Ibrahim, from Haroun,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws said to Abu Bakr: ‘Shall I-asws between me-asws and you (and) Rasool-Allah-saww?’ He said, ‘Yes’. They went to Masjid Quba. Amir Al-Momineen-asws prayed two Cycles Salat, and there he-asws was with Rasool-Allah-saww.
[فَقَالَ] يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ عَلَى هَذَا عَاهَدْتُكَ فَصِرْتَ بِهِ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ وَ اللَّهِ لَا أَجْلِسُ ذَلِكَ الْمَجْلِسَ فَلَقِيَ عُمَرَ وَ قَالَ مَا لَكَ كَذَا قَالَ قَدْ وَ اللَّهِ ذَهَبَ بِي فَأَرَانِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص
He-saww said: ‘O Abu Bakr! Had I-saww covenanted you upon this, so you came to be with it (caliphate)?’ Then he returned and he was saying, ‘By Allah-azwj! I will not sit in that seat’. Umar met him and he said, ‘What is the matter with you being like this?’ He said, ‘By Allah-azwj! He-asws went with me and showed me Rasool-Allah-saww’.
فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ أَ مَا تَذْكُرُ يَوْماً كُنَّا مَعَهُ فَأَمَرَ بِشَجَرَتَيْنِ فَالْتَقَتَا فَقَضَى حَاجَتَهُ خَلْفَهُمَا ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُمَا فَتَفَرَّقَا
Umar said to him, ‘Do you not remember the day we were with him-saww, and he-saww ordered two trees, so they joined up and he-saww fulfilled his-saww need behind them, then he-saww ordered, so they separated?’
قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَمَّا إِذَا قُلْتَ ذَا فَإِنِّي دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَ هُوَ فِي الْغَارِ فَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ فَمَسَحَهَا عَلَيْهِ فَعَادَ يَنْسِجُ الْعَنْكَبُوتُ كَمَا كَانَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَ لَا أُرِيكَ جعفر [جَعْفَراً] وَ أَصْحَابَهُ تَعُومُ بِهِمْ سَفِينَتَهُمْ فِي الْبَحْرِ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ فَمَسَحَ يَدَهُ عَلَى وَجْهِي فَرَأَيْتُ جَعْفَراً وَ أَصْحَابَهُ تَعُومُ بِهِمْ سَفِينَتَهُمْ فِي الْبَحْرِ فَيَوْمَئِذٍ عَرَفْتُ أَنَّهُ سَاحِرٌ فَرَجَعَ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ.
Abu Bakr said, ‘But, when you are saying that, so I and he-saww had entered into the cave. He-saww gestured with his-saww hand and wiped upon it, and the spider came and spun a web upon it, just as it was. Then he-saww said: ‘Shall I-saww show you Ja’far-as and his-as companion, their ship tossing with them in the sea?’ I said, ‘Yes’. He-saww wiped his-as hand upon my face, and I saw Ja’far-as and his-as companions, their ship was tossing with them in the sea. So, on that day I realised that he-saww is a sorcerer’. He returned to his place’’.[57]

It is narrated to us by Ali Bin Al Hassan Bin Fazzal, from his father, from Ala’a Bin Yahya Al Makfouf, from Umar Bin Abu Ziyad, from Atiyya Al Abzary who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww performed Tawaaf of the Kabah, and there was Adam-as parallel to the Yemeni corner. Rasool-Allah-saww greeted unto him-as, then ended up to the (Black) Stone and there was Noah-as facing a tall man. Rasool-Allah-azwj greeted unto him-as’’.[58]

It is narrated to us by Abbad Bin Suleyman, from his father Suleyman, from Aysam Bin Aslam, from Muawiya Al Duhny who said,
‘Abu Bakr came to Ali-asws and said to him-asws, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww did not narrated any Hadeeth to us regarding your-asws mater after the day of the Wilayah, and I do testify that you-asws are my Master-asws, acknowledging to you-asws with that, and I had greeted unto you-asws in the era of Rasool-Allah-saww as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’.
وَ أَخْبَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنَّكَ وَصِيُّهُ وَ وَارِثُهُ وَ خَلِيفَتُهُ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَ نِسَائِهِ وَ لَمْ يَحُلْ بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ وَ صَارَ مِيرَاثُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص إِلَيْكَ وَ أَمْرُ نِسَائِهِ وَ لَمْ يُخْبِرْنَا بِأَنَّكَ خَلِيفَتُهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ وَ لَا جُرْمَ لَكَ فِي ذَلِكَ فِيمَا بَيْنَنَا وَ بَيْنَكَ وَ لَا ذَنْبَ بَيْنَنَا وَ بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ اللَّهِ
And Rasool-Allah-saww had informed us that you-saww are his-saww successor-asws, and his-saww inheritor, and his-saww among his-saww family, and his-saww wives, and did not settle between you-asws and that, and the inheritance of Rasool-Allah-saww has come to you-asws, and the matters of his-saww wives, and he-saww did not inform us that you-asws are his-saww caliph from after him-saww, and there is no blame for you-asws regarding that in what is between us and you-asws, nor is then any sin between us and you-asws and Allah-azwj’

He (the narrator) said, ‘Ali-asws said: ‘If I-asws were to show you Rasool-Allah-azwj until he-saww informs you that I-asws am foremost with the command which you are in, than you are, and from others (as well), and (if) you do not retract from what you are in, you would happen to be a Kafir’.

Abu Bakr said, ‘If I were to see Rasool-Allah-saww until he-saww informs me with this, I shall be sufficed of it’. He-asws said: ‘Then, meet me-asws when you have prayed Al-Maghrib Salat’.
قَالَ فَرَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ بَعْدَ الْمَغْرِبِ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ فَخَرَجَ بِهِ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ قُبَا فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص جَالِسٌ فِي الْقِبْلَةِ فَقَالَ يَا عَتِيقُ وَثَبْتَ عَلَى عَلِيٍّ ع وَ جَلَسْتَ مَجْلِسَ النُّبُوَّةِ وَ قَدْ تَقَدَّمَتْ إِلَيْكَ فِي ذَلِكَ فَانْزِعْ هَذَا السِّرْبَالَ الَّذِي تَسَرْبَلْتَهُ فَخَلِّهِ لِعَلِيٍّ ع وَ إِلَّا فَمَوْعِدُكَ النَّارُ
He (the narrator) said, ‘He returned to him-asws after Al-Maghrib (Salat). He-asws grabbed his hand and went out with him to Masjid Quba, and there was Rasool-Allah-saww seated in the Qiblah. He-saww said: ‘O Ateeq! You pounced upon Ali-asws sat is the seat of the Prophet-hood, and he-asws had preceded to you regarding that, but you snatched away this trouser (caliphate) which you are wearing. Vacate it for Ali-asws or else your appointment would be in the Fire!’

He (the narrator) said, ‘Then he-asws grabbed his hand and took him out, and the Prophet-saww stood up and walked away from them. Amir Al-Momineen-asws went to Salman-ra and said: ‘O Salman-ra! Do you-ra not know that such and such matter has transpired?’ He-ra said, ‘Let us testify with you-asws and let us be a delegation to his companion (Umar) and inform him with the news’.
قَالَ فَضَحِكَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَ قَالَ إِمَّا أَنْ يجيز [يُخْبِرَ] صَاحِبَهُ وَ سَيَفْعَلُ ثُمَّ لَا وَ اللَّهِ لَا يَذَّكَّرُ أَبَداً إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ هُمَا أَنْظَرُ لِأَنْفُسِهِمَا مِنْ ذَلِكَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws chuckled and said: ‘But, if his companion allows him, he will do it, then no, by Allah-azwj, he will not remember it, ever, up to the Day of Qiyamah. They are looking out for themselves from that’.
قَالَ فَلَقِيَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَرَانِي عَلِيٌّ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ وَيْلَكَ مَا أَقَلَّ عَقْلَكَ فَوَ اللَّهِ مَا أَنْتَ فِيهِ السَّاعَةَ لَيْسَ إِلَّا مِنْ بَعْدِ سِحْرِ ابْنِ أَبِي كَبْشَةَ قَدْ نَسِيتَ سِحْرَ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ وَ مِنْ أَيْنَ يَرْجِعُ مُحَمَّدٌ ص وَ لَا يَرْجِعُ مَنْ مَاتَ إِنَّ مَا أَنْتَ فِيهِ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ سِحْرِ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ فَتَقَلَّدَ هَذَا السِّرْبَالَ وَ مَرَّ فِيهِ.
He (the narrator) said, ‘Abu Bakr met Umar and said to him, ‘Ali-asws showed me such and such’. Umar said to him, ‘Woe be unto you! How low is your intellect! By Allah-azwj, at the moment you are not except in after sorcery of Ibn Abi Kabasha. Have you forgotten the sorcery of the Clan of Hashim-as? And from where will Muhammad-saww return, and the ones who died have not returned? What you are in is the greatest of the sorcery of the Clan of Hashim-as. Wear this trouser and pass in it’’.[59]

‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘Abu Abdullah-asws was asked from a family member about Surah: Surely, We Revealed it during the Night of Pre-determination [97:1] (Surah Al-Qadr). He-asws said: ‘Woe be unto you! You have asked me about a great matter. Beware of asking about the like of this!’ So, the man stood up (and left).
قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُهُ يَوْماً فَأَقْبَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ نُورٌ عِنْدَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ الْأَوْصِيَاءِ لَا يُرِيدُونَ حَاجَةً مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَ لَا مِنَ الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا ذَكَرُوهَا لِذَلِكَ النُّورِ فَأَتَاهُمْ بِهَا
He-asws said: ‘I-asws came to him-asws one day and faced towards him-asws and asked him-asws. He-asws said: ‘Surely We Revealed it as Noor with the Prophets-as and the successors-asws. They do not want any need from the sky nor from the earth except they-asws mention it to that Noor, and he brings it to them-asws.
فَإِنَّ مِمَّا ذَكَرَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع مِنَ الْحَوَائِجِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ يَوْماً لا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَمْواتاً بَلْ أَحْياءٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ فَاشْهَدْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَاتَ شَهِيداً فَإِيَّاكَ أَنْ تَقُولُ إِنَّهُ مَيِّتٌ وَ اللَّهِ لَيَأْتِيَنَّكَ فَاتَّقِ اللَّهَ إِذَا جَاءَكَ الشَّيْطَانُ غَيْرَ مُتَمَثِّلٍ بِهِ
It is from what Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws mentioned from the needs that he-asws said to Abu Bakr one day: And do not reckon those who are killed in Allah’s Way as dead; but, they are alive being sustained in the Presence of their Lord [3:169]. So, I-asws hereby testify that Rasool-Allah-saww passed away as a martyr, therefore beware of saying he-asws died. By Allah-azwj! He-saww does come to you, so fear Allah-azwj when the Satan-la comes to you, for he-la cannot resemble him-saww’.
فَبَعَثَ بِهِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ إِنْ جَاءَنِي وَ اللَّهِ أَطَعْتُهُ وَ خَرَجْتُ مِمَّا أَنَا فِيهِ
Abu Bakr sent him-asws away and said, ‘By Allah-azwj if he-saww comes to me, I will obey him-saww and exit from what I am in’.
قَالَ وَ ذَكَرَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع لِذَلِكَ النُّورِ فَعَرَجَ إِلَى أَرْوَاحِ النَّبِيِّينَ فَإِذَا مُحَمَّدٌ ص قَدْ أُلْبِسَ وَجْهَهُ ذَلِكَ النُّورُ وَ أَتَى وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ آمِنْ بِعَلِيٍّ ع وَ بِأَحَدَ عَشَرَ مِنْ وُلْدِهِ إِنَّهُمْ مِثْلِي إِلَّا النُّبُوَّةَ وَ تُبْ إِلَى اللَّهِ بِرَدِّ مَا فِي يَدَيْكَ إِلَيْهِمْ فَإِنَّهُ لَا حَقَّ لَكَ فِيهِ قَالَ ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ فَلَمْ يُرَ
He-asws said: ‘And Amir Al-Momineen-asws mentioned to that Noor and it ascended to the souls of the Prophets-as, and there was Muhammad-saww having worn the face of the Noor and he-saww came and said: ‘O Abu Bakr! Believe in Ali-asws and in eleven from his-asws sons-asws. They-asws are like me-asws except for the Prophet-hood and repent to Allah-azwj by returning what is in your hands to them-asws, for there is no right for you in it’. Then he-saww went and was not seen.
فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَجْمَعُ النَّاسَ فَأَخْطُبُهُمْ بِمَا رَأَيْتُ وَ أَبْرَأُ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِمَّا أَنَا فِيهِ إِلَيْكَ يَا عَلِيُّ عَلَى أَنْ تُؤْمِنَنِي قَالَ مَا أَنْتَ بِفَاعِلٍ وَ لَوْ لَا أَنَّكَ تَنْسَى مَا رَأَيْتَ لَفَعَلْتَ
Abu Bakr said, ‘Gather the people, for I want to address them with what I have seen and disavow to Allah-azwj from what I am in to you-asws, O Ali-asws, and you-asws grant me security’. He-asws said: ‘You will not be doing it, and if you do not forget what you have seen, do so’.
قَالَ فَانْطَلَقَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِلَى عُمَرَ وَ رَجَعَ نُورُ إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ ع فَقَالَ لَهُ قَدِ اجْتَمَعَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مَعَ عُمَرَ فَقُلْتُ أَ وَ عَلِمَ النُّورُ قَالَ إِنَّ لَهُ لِسَاناً نَاطِقاً وَ بَصَراً نَافِذاً يَتَجَسَّسُ الْأَخْبَارَ لِلْأَوْصِيَاءِ وَ يَسْتَمِعُ الْأَسْرَارَ وَ يَأْتِيهِمْ بِتَفْسِيرِ كُلِّ أَمْرٍ يَكْتَتِمُ بِهِ أَعْدَاؤُهُمْ
He-asws said: ‘Abu Bakr went to Umar and Noor of Surah Al-Qadr returned to Ali-asws and said to him-asws: ‘Abu Bakr has gathered with Umar’. I said, ‘Or the Noor knows?’ He-asws said:’ There is a speaking tongue for it and penetrating vision investigating the news for the successors-asws and hears the secrets and comes to them-asws with the interpretation of every matter their-asws enemies are concealing with.
فَلَمَّا أَخْبَرَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْخَبَرَ عُمَرَ قَالَ سَحَرَكَ وَ إِنَّهَا لَفِي بَنِي هَاشِمٍ لَقَدِيمَةٌ
When Abu Bakr informed Umar the news, he said, ‘You are under a spell and it has been in the Clan of Hashim-asws since ancient times’.
قَالَ ثُمَّ قَامَا يُخْبِرَانِ النَّاسَ فَمَا دَرَيَا مَا يَقُولَانِ قُلْتُ لِمَا ذَا قَالَ لِأَنَّهُمَا قَدْ نَسِيَاهُ وَ جَاءَ النُّورُ فَأَخْبَرَ عَلِيّاً ع خَبَرَهُمَا فَقَالَ بُعْداً لَهُمَا كَما بَعِدَتْ ثَمُودُ.
He-asws said: ‘Then they stood up informing the people but did not know what they should be saying’. I said, ‘They had both forgotten it, and the Noor came and informed Ali-asws of their news. He-asws said: ‘Remoteness for them is like the remoteness of Samood (a community Punished by Allah-azwj)’’.[60]
16- حَدَّثَنِي الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حَسَّانَ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ الْهَاشِمِيِّ مَوْلَى مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: خَرَجَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع بِالنَّاسِ يُرِيدُ صِفِّينَ حَتَّى عَبَرَ الْفُرَاتَ فَكَانَ قَرِيباً مِنَ الْجَبَلِ بِصِفِّينَ إِذْ حَضَرَتْ صَلَاةُ الْمَغْرِبِ فَأَمْعَنَ بَعِيداً ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأَ وَ أَذَّنَ
It is narrated to me by Al Hassan Bin Ali Bin Abdullah, from Ali Bin Hassan, from his uncle Abdul Rahman Bin kaseer Al Hashimy a slave of Muhammad Bin Ali,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws went out with the people intending Siffeen, until he-asws crossed over the Euphrates. He-asws was near to the mountain at Siffeen when the Salat Al Maghrib presented. He-asws went far, then performed Wudu’u, and called the Azaan.
فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنَ الْأَذَانِ انْفَلَقَ الْجَبَلُ عَنْ هَامَةٍ بَيْضَاءَ بِلِحْيَةٍ بَيْضَاءَ وَ وَجْهٍ أَبْيَضَ فَقَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ مَرْحَباً بِوَصِيِّ خَاتَمِ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ قَائِدِ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ وَ الْأَعَزِّ الْمَأْثُورِ وَ الْفَاضِلِ وَ الْفَائِقِ بِثَوَابِ الصِّدِّيقِينَ وَ سَيِّدِ الْوَصِيِّينَ
When he-asws was free from the Azaan, the mountain split up from a white old man, with white beard, and white face. He said, ‘The greetings be unto you-asws, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings! Welcome to the successor-asws of the last of the Prophets-saww, and guide of the resplendent, and the dearest, and the most preferred, and the meritorious, and the distinguished with the Rewards of the truthful, and chief of the successors-asws’.
قَالَ لَهُ وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ يَا أَخِي شَمْعُونَ بْنَ حَمُّونَ وَصِيَّ عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ رُوحِ الْقُدُسِ كَيْفَ حَالُكَ
He-asws said to him: ‘And upon you be the greetings O my-asws brother Shamoun Bin Hamoun-as, successor-as of Isa Bin Maryam-as, the Holy Spirit, how is your-asws state?’
قَالَ بِخَيْرٍ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ أَنَا مُنْتَظِرٌ رُوحَ اللَّهِ يَنْزِلُ فَلَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَداً أَعْظَمَ فِي اللَّهِ بَلَاءً وَ لَا أَحْسَنَ غَداً ثَوَاباً وَ لَا أَرْفَعَ مَكَاناً مِنْكَ اصْبِرْ يَا أَخِي عَلَى مَا أَنْتَ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى تَلْقَى الْحَبِيبَ غَداً
He-as said: ‘May Allah-azwj have Mercy on you-asws! I-as was awaiting the Spirit of Allah-azwj to descend. I-as do not know of anyone having greater afflictions for the Sake of Allah-azwj, nor anyone of better Rewards tomorrow, nor of a loftier place than you-asws. Be patient, O my-as brother-asws, upon what you-asws are upon, until you-asws meet the beloved-saww tomorrow.
فَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ أَصْحَابَكَ بِالْأَمْسِ أَقْوَاماً لَقُوا مَا لَاقُوا مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ نَشَرُوهُمْ بِالْمَنَاشِيرِ وَ حَمَلُوهُمْ عَلَى الْخَشَبِ فَلَوْ تَعْلَمُ هَذِهِ الْوُجُوهُ الغريزة [الْعَزِيزَةُ] الشَّافِهَةُ مَا أَعَدَّ اللَّهُ لَهُمْ مِنْ عَذَابِ رَبِّكَ وَ سُوءِ نَكَالِهِ لَأَقْصَرُوا وَ لَوْ تَعْلَمُ هَذِهِ الْوُجُوهُ الْمُضِيئَةُ مَا ذَا لَهُمْ مِنَ الثَّوَابِ فِي طَاعَتِكَ لَتَمَنَّتْ أَنَّهَا قُرِضَتْ بِالْمَقَارِيضِ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
I-as have seen your-asws companions of yesterday, a people who faced what they faced from the children of Israel. They sawed them with the saws, and carried them upon the planks. If these proud, slanderous faces had known what Allah-azwj has Prepared for them from the Punishment of your-asws Lord-azwj and the evil of His-azwj scourge, they would not have been deficient, and if these white faces would have known what is there for them, from the Rewards of being in your-asws obedience, they would have wished to be sawn by the saws. And the greetings be upon you-asws, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings’.
وَ الْتَأَمَ الْجَبَلُ وَ خَرَجَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع إِلَى عَسْكَرِهِ فَسَأَلَهُ عَمَّارُ بْنُ يَاسِرٍ وَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَ مَالِكٌ الْأَشْتَرُ وَ هَاشِمُ بْنُ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ وَ أبي [أَبُو] أَيُّوبَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ وَ قَيْسُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ وَ عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَمِقِ الْخُزَاعِيُّ- وَ عُبَادَةُ بْنُ صَامِتٍ وَ أَبُو الْهَيْثَمِ بْنُ التَّيِّهَانِ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ فَأَخْبَرَهُمْ أَنَّهُ شَمْعُونُ بْنُ حَمُّونَ وَصِيُّ عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ وَ سَمِعُوا كَلَامَهُمَا فَازْدَادُوا بَصِيرَةً
And the mountain joined up, and Amir Al-Momineen-asws went out to his-asws soldiers. Ammar Bin Yasser, and Ibn Abbas, and Malik Al-Ashtar, and Hashim Bin Utba Bin Abu Waqqa, and Abu Ayoub Al-Ansari, and Qayd Bin Sa’ad Al Ansari, and Amro Bin Al-Hamiq Al-Khuzaie, and Ubada Bin Samir, and Abu Al-Haysam Bin Al-Tayhan asked him-asws about the man. He-asws informed them it was Shamoun Bin Hamoun-as, successor of Isa-as Bin Maryam-as, and they had heard both their talk, and they were increased with insight.
فَقَالَ لَهُ عُبَادَةُ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ وَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ- لَا يَهْلَعَنَّ قَلْبُكَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع بِأُمَّهَاتِنَا وَ آبَائِنَا نَفْدِيكَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع فَوَ اللَّهِ لَنَنْصُرَنَّكَ كَمَا نَصَرْنَا أَخَاكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص وَ لَا يَتَخَلَّفُ عَنْكَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَ الْأَنْصَارِ إِلَّا شَقِيٌّ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا مَعْرُوفاً وَ ذَكَرَهُمَا بِخَيْرٍ.
Ubada Bin Al-Samit and Abu Ayoub said to him-asws, ‘Do not let your-asws heart be alarmed, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! May our mothers and our fathers be sacrificed for you-asws, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws. By Allah-azwj! We shall help you-asws just as we had helped your-asws brother-saww Rasool-Allah-saww, and no one from the Emigrants and the Helpers would stay back from you-asws except a wretched ones’. He-asws said kind words to them and mentioned them with goodness’’.[61]
17- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ بَكْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمُكَارِي عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع لَقِيَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا أَمَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنْ تُطِيعَ قَالَ لَا وَ لَوْ أَمَرَنِي لَفَعَلْتُ
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Bakr, from Abu Saeed Al Mukary,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws met Abu Bakr and said to him: ‘Didn’t Rasool-Allah-saww order you to obey (me-asws)?’ He said, ‘No, but if he-saww had ordered me, I would have done so’.
قَالَ فَانْطَلِقْ بِنَا إِلَى مَسْجِدِ قُبَا فَانْطَلَقَ مَعَهُ فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يُصَلِّي فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص إِنِّي قُلْتُ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ مَا أَمَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنْ تُطِيعَنِي فَقَالَ لَا
He-asws said: ‘Come with us to Masjid Quba’. He went with him-asws, and there was Rasool-Allah-saww praying Salat. When he-saww finished, Ali-asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! I-asws said to Abu Bakr: ‘Didn’t Rasool-Allah-saww order you to obey me-asws?’ He said, ‘No’’.
فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بَلَى قَدْ أَمَرْتُكَ قاطعة [فَأَطِعْهُ] قَالَ فَخَرَجَ فَلَقِيَ عُمَرَ وَ هُوَ ذَعِرٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا لَكَ فَقَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص كَذَا وَ كَذَا قَالَ تَبّاً لِأُمَّتِكَ تقرك [تَتْرُكُ] أَمْرَهُمْ مَا تَعْرِفُ سِحْرَ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ.
Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Yes, I-saww had ordered you categorically, so obey him-asws’. He met Umar, and he was scared. He said to him, ‘What is the matter with you?’ He said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said such and such’. He said, ‘Damn your mother! You are leaving their command. Don’t you recognise the sorcery of the Clan of Hashim-as?’’[62]
18- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ أَبِي الْبِلَادِ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْخَثْعَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ ع قَالَ: خَرَجْتُ مَعَ أَبِي إِلَى بَعْضِ أَمْوَالِهِ فَلَمَّا بَرَزْنَا إِلَى الصَّحْرَاءِ اسْتَقْبَلَهُ شَيْخٌ أَبْيَضُ الرَّأْسِ وَ اللِّحْيَةِ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ فَنَزَلَ إِلَيْهِ أَبِي جَعَلْتُ أَسْمَعُهُ يَقُولُ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ ثُمَّ جَلَسَا فَتَسَاءَلَا طَوِيلًا
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ibrahim Bin Abu Al Bilad, from Ubeyd Bin Abdul Rahman Al Khas’amy,
‘From Abu Ibrahim (7th Imam-asws) having said: ‘I-asws went out with my-asws father-asws to one of his-asws assets. When we-asws came out to the desert, an old man of white head and beard met him-asws. He-asws greeted unto him and my-asws father-asws descended to him. I-asws went on to hear him-asws saying: ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws!’ Then they both sat discussing for a long time.
ثُمَّ قَامَ الشَّيْخُ وَ انْصَرَفَ وَ وَدَّعَ أَبِي وَ قَامَ يَنْظُرُ فِي قَفَاهُ حَتَّى تَوَارَى عَنْهُ فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِي مَنْ هَذَا الشَّيْخُ الَّذِي سَمِعْتُكَ تَقُولُ لَهُ مَا لَمْ تَقُلْهُ لِأَحَدٍ قَالَ هَذَا أَبِي.
Then the old man stood up and left, and my-asws father-asws bade him-asws farewell and stood looking in his back until he disappeared from sight. I-asws said to my-asws father-asws: ‘Who is this old man whom I-asws heard you-asws saying to him what you-asws do not say to anyone?’ He-asws said: ‘This is my-asws father-asws’’.[63]
19- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَمَّنْ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ عَبَايَةَ الْأَسَدِيِّ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَ عِنْدَهُ رَجُلٌ رَثُ الْهَيْئَةِ وَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع مُقْبِلٌ عَلَيْهِ يُكَلِّمُهُ فَلَمَّا قَامَ الرَّجُلُ قُلْتُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَنْ هَذَا الَّذِي أَشْغَلَكَ عَنَّا قَالَ هَذَا وَصِيُّ مُوسَى ع.
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Isa, from Usman Bin Isa, from the one who informed him, from Abaya Al Asady who said,
‘I entered to see Amir Al-Momineen-asws and in his-asws presence was a man of shabby clothing, and Amir Al-Momineen-asws was facing towards him speaking to him. When the man stood (to leave), I said, ‘O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! Who is this who pre-occupied you-asws from us?’ He-asws said: ‘This is the successor-as of Musa-as’’.[64]

It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al husayn Bin Saeed, from Al Qasim Bin Muhammad, form Ali Bin Abu Hamza, from Umar Bin Abu Shu’ba who said,
‘When the death presented to Rasool-Allah-saww, Ali-asws came to him-saww, he-saww included his-saww head with (near to) him-asws, then said: ‘O Ali-asws! When I-saww pass away, then wash me-saww and enshroud me-saww, then sit me-saww up and ask me-saww, and write down (my-saww answers)’’.[65]

We entered to see him in the afternoon, and in front of him was a pot of water, and he was wiping. We greeted unto him and he returned the greeting to us, then he initiated us saying, ‘Is there anyone (else) with you?’ We said, ‘No’.
ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ يَمِيناً وَ شِمَالًا هَلْ يَرَى أَحَداً ثُمَّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي عَنْ جَدِّي أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بِمِنًى وَ هُوَ يَرْمِي الْجَمَرَاتِ وَ أَنَّ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ رَمَى الْجَمَرَاتِ قَالَ فَاسْتَتَمَّهَا ثُمَّ بَقِيَ فِي يَدِهِ بَعْدُ خَمْسُ حَصَيَاتٍ فَرَمَى اثْنَتَيْنِ فِي نَاحِيَةٍ وَ ثَلَاثَةً فِي نَاحِيَةٍ
Then he turned towards right and left whether anyone was looking, then said, ‘My father informed me from my grandfather that he was with Abu Ja’far Muhammad-asws Bin Ali-asws at Mina, and he was pelting the rocks (a ritual), and Abu Ja’far-asws pelted the rocks. He-asws completed, then there remain in his-asws hand afterwards, five pebbles, so he-asws threw two in a corner and three in a corner.
فَقَالَ لَهُ جَدِّي جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُكَ صَنَعْتَ شَيْئاً مَا صَنَعَهُ أَحَدٌ قَطُّ رَأَيْتُكَ رَمَيْتَ الْجَمَرَاتِ ثُمَّ رَمَيْتَ بِخَمْسَةٍ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَةٍ فِي نَاحِيَةٍ وَ اثْنَتَيْنِ فِي نَاحِيَةٍ
My grandfather said to him-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! I saw you-asws do something what no one (else) has done at all! I saw you-asws pelt the rocks, then you-asws threw five after that, three in a corner and two in a corner’.
قَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّهُ إِذَا كَانَ كُلُّ مَوْسِمٍ أُخْرِجَا الْفَاسِقَيْنِ الْغَاصِبَيْنِ ثُمَّ يُفَرَّقُ بَيْنَهُمَا هَاهُنَا لَا يَرَاهُمَا إِلَّا إِمَامٌ عَدْلٌ فَرَمَيْتُ الْأَوَّلَ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَ الْآخَرَ ثَلَاثَةً لِأَنَّ الْآخَرَ أَخْبَثُ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِ.
He-asws said: ‘Yes, whenever it was every season (of Hajj), the mischief-makers, the usurpers are brought out, then there is a separation between the two over here. None can see the two except a just Imam-asws. So, I-asws pelted the first (Abu Bakr) two (pebbles), and the other (Umar) three (pebbles), because the other ones is wickeder than the first one’’.[82]
9- حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَسْبَاطٍ عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ جَنَاحٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: لَمَّا مَاتَتْ فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ أَسَدٍ أُمُّ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ جَاءَ عَلِيٌّ ع عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَا أَبَا الْحَسَنِ مَا لَكَ قَالَ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ
It is narrated to us by Ibrahim Bin hashim, from Ali Bin Asbat, from Bakr Bin Janah, from a man,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘When (Syeda) Fatima Bint Asad-asws, mother-asws of Amir Al-Momineen-asws passed away, Ali-asws came in the presence of the Prophet-saww. Rasool-Allah-saww said to him-asws: ‘O Abu Al-Hassan-asws! What is the matter with you-asws?’ He-asws said: ‘My-asws mother-asws passed away’.
قَالَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص وَ أُمِّي وَ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ بَكَى وَ قَالَ وَا أُمَّاهْ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ ع هَذَا قَمِيصِي فَكَفِّنْهَا فِيهِ وَ هَذَا رِدَائِي فَكَفِّنْهَا فِيهِ فَإِذَا فَرَغْتُمْ فَآذِنُونِي
He (Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘The Prophet-saww said: ‘And (she-asws was) my-saww mother-asws (as well), by Allah-azwj!’ Then he-saww cried and said: ‘Waah, mother-asws!’ Then he-saww said to Ali-asws, ‘This is my-saww shirt, enshroud her-asws in it, and this is my-saww cloak, enshroud her-as in it. When you-asws are free, then call me-saww’.
فَلَمَّا أُخْرِجَتْ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا النَّبِيُّ ص صَلَاةً لَمْ يُصَلِّ قَبْلَهَا وَ لَا بَعْدَهَا عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِثْلَهَا ثُمَّ نَزَلَ عَلَى قَبْرِهَا فَاضْطَجَعَ فِيهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهَا يَا فَاطِمَةُ قَالَتْ لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ فَهَلْ وَجَدْتِ مَا وَعَدَ رَبُّكِ حَقّاً قَالَتْ نَعَمْ فَجَزَاكَ اللَّهِ جَزَاءً وَ طَالَتْ مُنَاجَاتُهُ فِي الْقَبْرِ
When (her-asws body) was brought out, the Prophet-saww prayed such a Salat, he-saww had not prayed (like it) before, and (did he-saww pray) similar to it after her upon anyone else. Then he-saww descended to her-asws grave and lied down in it, then he-saww said to her-asws: ‘O Fatima-asws!’ She-asws (while being deceased) said, ‘Here I-asws am, O Rasool-Allah-saww!’ He-saww said: ‘Have you-asws found what your-asws Lord-azwj Promised, as being true?’ She-asws said, ‘Yes, may Allah-azwj Recompense you-saww’. And his-saww whispering (discussion) in the grave was prolonged.
فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ صَنَعْتَ بِهَا شَيْئاً فِي تَكْفِينِكَ ثِيَابَكَ وَ دُخُولِكَ فِي قَبْرِهَا وَ طُولِ مُنَاجَاتِكَ وَ طُولِ صَلَاتِكَ مَا رَأَيْنَاكَ صَنَعْتَهُ بِأَحَدٍ قَبْلَهَا
When he-saww came out, it was said, ‘I Rasool-Allah-saww! You-saww have done something with her-asws regarding your-saww enshrouding with your-saww clothes, and your-saww entering into her-asws grave, and the prolongation of your-saww whispering, and the prolongation of your-saww Salat. I have not seen you-saww do it with anyone else before her-asws!’
قَالَ أَمَّا تَكْفِيَنِي إِيَّاهَا فَإِنِّي لَمَّا قُلْتُ لَهَا يُعْرَضُ النَّاسُ يَوْمَ يُحْشَرُونَ مِنْ قُبُورِهِمْ فَصَاحَتْ فَقَالَتْ وَا سَوْأَتَاهْ فلبستها [فَأَلْبَسْتُهَا] ثِيَابِي وَ سَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ فِي صَلَاتِي عَلَيْهَا أَنْ لَا يُبْلِيَ أَكْفَانَهَا حَتَّى تَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ فَأَجَابَنِي إِلَى ذَلِكَ
He-saww said: ‘As for my-saww enshrouding her-asws, when I-saww said to her-asws that the people would be presented on the Day they are Resurrected from their graves, she-asws shrieked and said, ‘Oh the evil of it!’ So, I-saww clothed her-asws with my-saww cloth and asked Allah-azwj in my-saww Salat upon her-asws that He-azwj should not Let her-asws shroud to decay until she-asws enters the Paradise, and He-azwj Answered me-saww to that.
وَ أَمَّا دُخُولِي فِي قَبْرِهَا فَإِنِّي قُلْتُ لَهَا يَوْماً إِنَّ الْمَيِّتَ إِذَا دَخَلَ قَبْرَهُ وَ انْصَرَفَ النَّاسُ عَنْهُ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ مَلَكَانِ مُنْكَرٌ وَ نَكِيرٌ فَيَسْأَلَانِهِ فَقَالَتْ وَا غَوْثَاهْ بِاللَّهِ فَمَا زِلْتُ أَسْأَلُ رَبِّي فِي قَبْرِهَا حَتَّى فَتَحَ لَهَا رَوْضَةً مِنْ قَبْرِهَا إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَ رَوْضَةً مِنْ رِيَاضِ الْجَنَّةِ.
And as for my-saww entering into her-asws grave, I-saww said to her-asws one day that the deceased, when he is entered into his grave and the people disperse away from him, two Angels, Munkar and Nakeer enter upon him and question him. She-asws had said, ‘Waah, seeking its Help with Allah-azwj!’ So, I-saww did not cease asking my-saww Lord-azwj in her-asws grave until there was opened up for her-asws, a garden from her-asws grave to the Paradise, and a garden from the Gardens of the Paradise’’.[83]

Then Rasool-Allah-saww split it and gave him-asws half of it, and Rasool-Allah-saww took half of it, then said: ‘But you-asws are my-saww participant in it, and I-saww am your-saww participant in it’.

They said, ‘The matter of your-saww wives is up to him-asws?’ He-saww said: ‘Yes’.

‘We went out with Abu Baseer and we were a number. We entered with him to see Abu Abdullah-asws. He-asws said: ‘O Abu Muhammad! Knowledge of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws is from knowledge of Rasool-Allah-saww. We-asws know it regarding what he-saww taught him-asws. Allah-azwj is what I-asws worship and to Him-azwj I-asws shall return’’.[117]

It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Sayf Bin Ameyra, from Abu Al Sabbah who said,
‘By Allah-azwj! Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws had said to me: ‘Allah-azwj Taught to His-azwj Prophet-saww the Revelation and the interpretation. Rasool-Allah-saww taught Ali-asws, and he-asws taught us-asws, by Allah-azwj’.

It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Abdul Hameed, from Mansour Bin Yunus, from Ibn Uzina, from Muhammad Bin Muslim who said,
‘I heard Abu Ja’far-asws saying: ‘Jibraeel-as descended unto Muhammad-saww with two pomegranates from the Paradise. He-saww met Ali-asws, and he-asws said to him-saww: ‘What are these two pomegranates in your-saww hand?’ He-saww said: ‘As for this one, it is the Prophet-hood. There isn’t any share for you-asws in it. And as for this one, it is the knowledge’.

Then Rasool-Allah-saww split it and gave him-asws half of it, and Rasool-Allah-saww took its half. Then he-saww said: ‘You-asws are my-saww participant in it and I-saww am your-asws participant in it’.
قَالَ فَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ وَ اللَّهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص حَرْفاً مِمَّا عَلَّمَهُ اللَّهُ إِلَّا عَلَّمَهُ عَلِيّاً ع ثُمَّ انْتَهَى ذَلِكَ الْعِلْمُ إِلَيْنَا ثُمَّ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى صَدْرِهِ.
He-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! Rasool-Allah-saww did not learn a single letter from what Allah-azwj Taught him-saww, except he-saww taught Ali-asws, then that knowledge ended up to us-asws’. Then he-asws placed his-asws hand upon his-asws chest’’.[119]

It is narrated to us by Al Hassan Bin Ali Bin Numan, and Ahmad Bin Muhammad, altogether from Ali Bin Al No’man who said,
‘It is narrated to me by one who entered to see Abu Abdullah-asws. He said to him-asws, ‘People-asws of your-asws Household have been asked but nothing regarding it was seen to be with them’. He-asws said: ‘And what is it?’

He said, ‘They are reporting that Ali-asws had said: ‘Ask me-asws before you lose me-asws, for by Allah-azwj, you will not ask me-asws about any fertile land, nor infertile land, nor any group of a hundred straying, and a hundred straying, except if I-asws like, I-asws can inform you all with its callers, and its guides, and its ushers!’
قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَإِنَّ هَذَا حَقٌّ.
He (the narrator) said, ‘Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘But, this is true’’.[121]

‘I said to Abu Abdullah-asws, ‘We are reporting such Ahadeeth, we cannot find anything with the People-asws of your-asws Household’. He-asws said: ‘What is it?’
قُلْتُ يَرْوُونَ أَنَّ عَلِيّاً ع كَانَ يَقُولُ وَ هُوَ يَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ سَلُونِي فَإِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَسْأَلُونِي عَنْ شَيْءٍ فِيمَا بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَ السَّاعَةِ لَا عَنْ أَرْضٍ مُجْدِبَةٍ وَ لَا عَنْ أَرْضٍ مُخْصِبَةٍ وَ لَا عَنْ فِرْقَةٍ تُضِلُّ مِائَةً وَ تَهْدِي مِائَةً إِلَّا أَنْ لَوْ شِئْتُ أنبأكم [أَنْبَأْتُكُمْ] بِنَاعِقِهَا وَ قَائِدِهَا وَ سَائِقِهَا قَالَ وَ إِنَّهُ حَقٌّ.
I said, ‘It is being reported that Ali-asws was saying while he-asws was addressing the people: ‘O you people! Ask me-asws, for you will never ask me-asws about anything in what is between me-asws and the Hour, nor about any infertile land, nor about any fertile land, nor about any group of hundred straying, and a hundred being guided, except if I-asws like I-asws can inform you all with its callers, and its guides, and its ushers!’ He-asws said: ‘And it is true’’.[122]

It is narrated to us by Ibrahim Bin Is’haq, from Abdullah Bin Hammad, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir Bin Yazeed,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘There is none from a fertile land, nor infertile, nor a group of a hundred straying, and a hundred being guided, except I-saww know it and have taught it to the People-asws of my-saww Household, their-asws elders teach their-asws young ones-asws, up to the establishment of the Hour’’.[123]

It is narrated to us by Ibrahim Bin hashim, from Al Husayn Bin Sayf, from his father, from Mansour Bin Hazim, from Abu Is’haq Al Hamdany who said, ‘It is narrated to me by Abu Al Mo’tamar who said,
‘I heard Abu Zarr-ra saying, ‘I-ra heard Rasool-Allah-saww saying: ‘But rather, an example of People-asws of my-saww Household among you all is an example of the ship of Noah-as. One who sails in it would attain salvation, and one who stays behind from it would drown.
إِنَّمَا مَثَلُ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي فِيكُمْ [مَثَلُ] بَابِ حِطَّةٍ مَنْ دَخَلَهُ غُفِرَ لَهُ وَ مَنْ لَمْ يَدْخُلْ لَمْ يُغْفَرْ لَهُ
But rather, an example of People-asws of my-saww Household among you all is an example of the door of Hitta. One who enters it would have Forgiveness for him, and one who does not enter, there would be no Forgiveness for him.
فَإِنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ مِنْ فِئَةٍ تَبْلُغُ مِائَةً إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ إِلَّا أَنَا أَعْرِفُ نَاعِقَهَا وَ سَائِقَهَا وَ عِلْمُ ذَلِكَ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يَعْلَمُهُ كَبِيرُهُمْ وَ صَغِيرُهُمْ.
Surely there isn’t any group reaching a hundred up to the Day of Qiyamah, except I-saww recognise its caller, and its usher, and that is known in the presence of the People-asws of my-saww Household. Their-asws elders know it and (so do) their-asws young ones’’.[124]

Amir Al-Momineen-asws said: ‘He has not died’. He reiterated to him-asws. Ali-asws said to him: ‘He-asws did not die, by the One-azwj in Whose Hand is my-asws soul! Their guided has not died’. He reiterated to him-asws for the third time.
فَقَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ أُخْبِرُكَ أَنَّهُ مَاتَ وَ تَقُولُ لَمْ يَمُتْ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ ع لَمْ يَمُتْ وَ الَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَا يَمُوتُ حَتَّى يَقُودَ جَيْشَ ضَلَالَةٍ يَحْمِلُ رَايَتَهُ حَبِيبُ بْنُ جَمَّازٍ
He said, ‘Glory be to Allah-azwj! I am informing you-asws that he has died, and you-asws are saying he did not die?’ Ali-asws said to him: ‘He did not die. By the One-azwj in Whose Hand is my-asws soul, he will not be dying until he guides an army of stray ones, its flag being carried by Habeeb Bin Jammaz’.
قَالَ فَسَمِعَ بِذَلِكَ حَبِيبٌ فَأَتَى أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقَالَ نَاشَدَكَ فِيَّ وَ أَنَا لَكَ شِيعَةٌ وَ قَدْ ذَكَرْتَنِي بِأَمْرٍ لَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا أَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ نَفْسِي
He (the narrator) said, ‘That was heard by Habeeb, so he came to Amir Al-Momineen-asws and said, ‘I adjure you-asws regarding me, and I am a Shia of yours-asws, and you-asws have mentioned me with a matter. No, by Allah-azwj, I do not recognise it from myself’.
فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ ع إِنْ كُنْتَ حَبِيبَ بْنَ جَمَّازٍ فَتَحْمِلُهَا فَوَلَّى حَبِيبُ بْنُ جَمَّازٍ وَ قَالَ إِنْ كُنْتَ حَبِيبَ بْنَ جَمَّازٍ لَتَحْمِلَنَّهَا
Ali-asws said to him: ‘If you were Habeeb Bin Jammaz, you will be carrying it (the flag of the army). Habeeb Bin Jammaz would be a ruler’. And he-asws said: ‘If you were Habeeb Bin Jammaz, you will be carrying it’.
قَالَ أَبُو حَمْزَةَ فَوَ اللَّهِ مَا مَاتَ حَتَّى بُعِثَ عُمَرُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ إِلَى الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع وَ جُعِلَ خَالِدُ بْنُ عَرْفَطَةَ عَلَى مُقَدِّمَتِهِ وَ حَبِيبٌ صَاحِبَ رَايَتِهِ.
Abu Hamza said, ‘By Allah-azwj! He did not die until Umar Bin Sa’ad sent (an army) against Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws, and made Khalid Bin Arfatah (in charge) of its front men, and Habeeb was the bearer of the flag’’.[131]

It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Abdul Rahman Bin Abi Hisham, from Anbasa Bin Al Abid, from Mugheira, a slave of Abdul Momin Al Ansari, from Sa’ad Bin Al Asbagh who said,
‘I heard Ali-asws saying upon this pulpit: ‘Ask me-asws before you lose me! By Allah-azwj, there is none from a land fertile, nor infertile, nor a group of a hundred straying, nor a hundred being guided, except and I-asws recognise its guide, and its usher, and I-asws have informed of this to a man-asws from the People-asws of my-asws Household. Their-asws elders will inform their-asws young ones, up to the establishment of the Hour’’.[133]

While they were having a meal when a lizard came out to them, and they hunted it. Amro Bin Hureys seized it and extended its hand and said, ‘Pledge allegiance to this commander of the faithful’. The seven pledged allegiance to it, and Amro was their eighth, and they departed on the night of Wednesday and arrived in Al-Madain on the day of Friday, and Amir Al-Momineen-asws was upon the pulpit, addressing, and they did not separate from each other, and they were together until they descended at the door of the Masjid.
فَلَمَّا دَخَلُوا نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص أَسَرَّ إِلَيَّ أَلْفَ حَدِيثٍ فِي كُلِّ حَدِيثٍ أَلْفُ بَابٍ لِكُلِّ بَابٍ مِفْتَاحٌ وَ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ نَدْعُوا كُلَّ أُناسٍ بِإِمامِهِمْ وَ إِنِّي أُقْسِمُ لَكُمْ بِاللَّهِ لَتُبْعَثَنَّ ثَمَانِيَةُ نَفَرٍ إِمَامُهُمُ الضَّبُّ وَ لَوْ شِئْتُ أَنْ أُسَمِّيَهُمْ فَعَلْتُ
When they entered, Amir Al-Momineen-asws looked at them and he-asws said: ‘O you people! Rasool-Allah-azwj secretly told me a thousand Hadeeth, in each Hadeeth there were a thousand doors, for each door there was a key, and I-asws heard Allah-azwj Saying: ‘On the Day (of Qiyamah), We will be Calling every human being with their Imam [17:71].And I-asws vow to you all with Allah-azwj, eight would be Resurrect and their imam would be the lizard, and if you like me-asws to name them, I-asws shall do so’.
قَالَ فَلَوْ رَأَيْتَ عَمْرَو بْنَ حُرَيْثٍ يَنْتَقِضُ كَمَا يَنْتَقِضُ السَّعَفَةُ حَيَاءً وَ لَوْماً.
He (the narrator) said, ‘If only you could have seen Amro Bin Hureys devastated, just as the foliage gets destroyed, out of shame and blame’’.[162]

It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Sinan, from Ibn Muskan, from Musa Bin Bakr who said,
‘I said to Abu Abdullah-asws, ‘The man has unconsciousness upon him for a day, or two days, or three, or more than that. How much of his Salat should he pay back?’
فَقَالَ لَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِمَا يَنْتَظِمُ هَذَا وَ أَشْبَاهُهُ فَقَالَ كُلَّمَا غَلَبَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَمْرٍ فَاللَّهُ أَعْذَرُ لِعَبْدِهِ وَ زَادَ فِيهِ غَيْرُهُ
He-asws said: ‘I-asws will not inform you with what regularises this and its like. Every time Allah-azwj overcomes upon him of any matter, so Allah-azwj is more Excusing for His-azwj servant and Increases in him of something else’.
قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَ هَذَا مِنَ الْأَبْوَابِ الَّتِي يَفْتَحُ كُلُّ بَابٍ مِنْهَا أَلْفَ بَابٍ.

But he-asws was not able upon opening it, so he-asws opened it for him-asws, then said to him-asws: ‘Read, O my-asws son-asws!’ He-asws read it just as Al-Hassan-asws had read, then folded it. The he-asws handed it to Al-Hanafiyya, but he was not able upon opening it. So, he-asws opened it for him and said: ‘Read!’ But nothing came out from it, so he-asws took it and folded it, then threw it from the sheath of the sword’.

قُلْنَا مَا أَنْصَفَكَ الْقَوْمُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَ لَيْسَ حَيْثُ تَذْهَبُ يَا ابْنَ أَخٍ إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ أَلْفَ كَلِمَةٍ مَا يَعْلَمُهَا غَيْرِي وَ غَيْرُ مُحَمَّدٍ ص يَقْرَءُونَ مِنْهَا آيَةً فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَ إِذا وَقَعَ الْقَوْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَخْرَجْنا لَهُمْ دَابَّةً مِنَ الْأَرْضِ تُكَلِّمُهُمْ أَنَّ النَّاسَ كانُوا بِآياتِنا لا يُوقِنُونَ.
We said, ‘The people have not been fair with you-asws, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws!’ He-asws said: ‘It isn’t where you are going, O son of a brother! I-asws know a thousand phrases no one else knows apart from me-asws and Muhammad-saww. They are reading from it a Verse in the Book of Allah-azwj: And when the Word will occur upon them, We will Bring out to them a walker from the earth to speak to them. Surely, the people would not have had certainty in Our Signs [27:82]’’.[177]
8- حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْمُؤْمِنِ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي الْحَرْثُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ عَلَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَلِيّاً ع أَلْفَ كَلِمَةٍ كُلُّ كَلِمَةٍ تَفْتَحُ أَلْفَ كَلِمَةٍ.

9- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ عَنْ ذَرِيحٍ الْمُحَارِبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: جَلَّلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَلَى عَلِيٍّ ع ثَوْباً ثُمَّ عَلَّمَهُ أَلْفَ كَلِمَةٍ يَفْتَحُ كُلُّ كَلِمَةٍ أَلْفَ كَلِمَةٍ.
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Ja’far Bin bashir, from Zareeh al Muhariby,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww cast a cloth upon Ali-asws, then taught him-asws a thousand phrases, each phrase opened a thousand phrases’’.[179]
10- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنِ ابْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ وَ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي الدَّيْلَمِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: أَوْصَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِلَى عَلِيٍّ ع بِأَلْفِ كَلِمَةٍ كُلُّ كَلِمَةٍ تَفْتَحُ أَلْفَ كَلِمَةٍ.
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ibn Sinan, from ismail Bin Jabir, and Abdul Kareem, from Abdul Hameed Bin Abu Al Daylam,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww bequeathed to Ali-asws with a thousand phrases, each phrase opened a thousand phrases’’.[180]
11- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ سَعْدَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ تَغْلِبَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع سَيَأْتِي مِنْ مَسْجِدِكُمْ هَذَا يَعْنِي مَكَّةَ ثَلَاثُمِائَةٍ وَ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا يَعْلَمُ أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَلِدْهُمْ آبَاؤُهُمْ وَ لَا أَجْدَادُهُمْ عَلَيْهِمُ السُّيُوفُ مَكْتُوبٌ عَلَى كُلِّ سَيْفٍ كَلِمَةً يَفْتَحُ أَلْفَ كَلِمَةٍ
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Musa Bin Sa’dan, from Abdullah Bin Al Qasim, from Malik Bin Atiyya, from Aban Bin Taghlib who said,
‘There will be coming from this Masjid of yours, meaning Makkah, three hundred and thirteen men. The people of Makkah would know that their fathers have not begotten them nor their grandfathers. Upon them would be swords (and) there would be a phrase inscribed upon each sword, each phrase opening a thousand phrases.
تَبْعَثُ الرِّيحُ فَتُنَادِي بِكُلِّ وَادٍ هَذَا الْمَهْدِيُّ هَذَا الْمَهْدِيُّ يَقْضِي بِقَضَاءِ آلِ دَاوُدَ وَ لَا يَسْأَلُ عَلَيْهِ بَيِّنَةً.
The wind would be sent, and it would be called out in every valley: ‘This is Al-Mahdi-asws! This is Al-Mahdi-asws! He-asws will judge by the judgment of the family of Dawood-as, and he-asws will not ask for a proof upon it’’.[181]
12- حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْعَطَّارُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: نَحْنُ عِنْدَهُ ثَمَانِيَةُ رِجَالٍ فَذَكَرْنَا رَمَضَانَ فَقَالَ لَا تَقُولُوا هَذَا رَمَضَانُ وَ لَا ذَهَبَ رَمَضَانُ وَ لَا جَاءَ رَمَضَانُ فَإِنَّ رَمَضَانَ اسْمٌ مِنْ أَسْمَاءِ اللَّهِ لَا يَجِيءُ وَ لَا يَذْهَبُ وَ إِنَّمَا يَجِيءُ وَ يَذْهَبُ الزَّائِلُ
It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Yahya Al Attar who said, ‘It is narrated to me by Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Nasr, from Hisham Bin Salim, from Sa’ad,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘We were eighty men in his-asws presence and we mentioned Ramazan. He-asws said: ‘Do not be saying, ‘This is Ramazan’, nor ‘Ramazan has gone’, nor ‘Ramazan has come’, for ‘Ramazan’ is a Name from the Names of Allah-azwj; It neither comes nor goes, and rather the temporal comes and goes.
وَ لَكِنْ قُولُوا شَهْرُ رَمَضانَ فَالشَّهْرُ الْمُضَافُ إِلَى الِاسْمِ وَ الِاسْمُ اسْمُ اللَّهِ وَ هُوَ الشَّهْرُ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنُ جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مَثَلًا فِي هَذَا الْمَكَانِ فِي الْأَصْلِ
But, be saying, ‘The Month of Ramazan [2:185] So, the (word) ‘month) is the adverb to the name, and the Name is a Name of Allah-azwj, and it is the month in which the Quran was Revealed [2:185]. Allah-azwj had Made an example in this place, in the original.
لَا يُفْعَلُ الْخُرُوجُ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ لِزِيَادَةِ الْأَئِمَّةِ ع وَ عِيداً أَلَا وَ مَنْ خَرَجَ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَ نَحْنُ سَبِيلُ اللَّهِ الَّذِي مَنْ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ يُطَافُ بِالْحِصْنِ وَ الْحِصْنُ هُوَ الْإِمَامُ فَيُكَبِّرُ عِنْدَ رُؤْيَتِهِ كَانَتْ لَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ صَخْرَةٌ أَثْقَلُ فِي مِيزَانِهِ مِنَ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ وَ الْأَرَضِينَ السَّبْعِ وَ مَا فِيهِنَّ وَ مَا بَيْنَهُنَّ وَ مَا تَحْتَهُنَّ
Do not go out in a month of Ramazan for the Imams-asws are increased, and Eid. Indeed! And one who goes out from his house during a month of Ramazan in the Way of Allah-azwj, and we-asws are the Way of Allah-azwj which, one who enters it is surrounded with the fortress, and the fortress, it is the Imam-asws. So, one should exclaim Takbeer at sighting it. One the Day of Qiyamah it would be a heavy rock for him in his scale, from the seven skies and the seven earths, and whatever is in them, and whatever is between them, and whatever is beneath them’.
قُلْتُ يَا بَا جَعْفَرٍ ع وَ مَا الْمِيزَانُ فَقَالَ إِنَّكَ قَدِ ازْدَدْتَ قُوَّةً وَ نَظَراً يَا سَعْدُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص الصَّخْرَةُ وَ نَحْنُ الْمِيزَانُ وَ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ فِي الْإِمَامِ لِيَقُومَ النَّاسُ بِالْقِسْطِ
I said, ‘O Abu Ja’far-asws! And what is the scale?’ He-asws said: ‘You have increased in strength and consideration, O Sa’ad! Rasool-Allah-saww is the rock, and we-asws are the scale, and that is the Word of Allah-azwj regarding the Imam-asws: in order for them to establish justice with the people. [57:25]’.
قَالَ وَ مَنْ كَبَّرَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الْإِمَامِ وَ قَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ رِضْوَانَهُ الْأَكْبَرَ وَ مَنْ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ رِضْوَانَهُ الْأَكْبَرَ يَجِبُ أَنْ يَجْمَعَ بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَ مُحَمَّدٍ ص وَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ فِي دَارِ الْجَلَالِ
He-asws said: ‘And the one who exclaims Takbeer in front of the Imam-asws and says, ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj Alone, there is no associate for Him-azwj’, Allah-azwj would Write for him His-azwj Great Pleasure, obliging that He-azwj Gathers between him, and Ibrahim-as and Muhammad-saww and the Messengers-as, in the house of the Majesty’.
فَقُلْتُ لَهُ وَ مَا دَارُ الْجَلَالِ قَالَ نَحْنُ الدَّارُ وَ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ تِلْكَ الدَّارُ الْآخِرَةُ نَجْعَلُها لِلَّذِينَ لا يُرِيدُونَ عُلُوًّا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَ لا فَساداً وَ الْعاقِبَةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
I said to him-asws, ‘And what is the house of the Majesty?’ He-asws said: ‘We-asws are the house (of Majesty), and that is the Word of Allah-azwj: That is the House of the Hereafter. We Make it to be for those who are not wanting to exalt themselves in the land nor make mischief, and the end-result is for the pious [28:83].
فَنَحْنُ الْعَاقِبَةُ يَا سَعْدُ وَ أَمَّا مَوَدَّتُنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى تَبارَكَ اسْمُ رَبِّكَ ذِي الْجَلالِ وَ الْإِكْرامِ فَنَحْنُ جَلَالُ اللَّهِ وَ كَرَامَتُهُ الَّتِي أَكْرَمَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى الْعِبَادَ بِطَاعَتِنَا.
We-asws are the end-result, O Sa’ad! And as for our-asws cordiality for the pious, so Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted: Blessed is the Name of your Lord, with the Majesty and the Honour! [55:78]. We-asws are the Majesty of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Honour which Allah-azwj the Blessed and Exalted Honoured the servants with being obedient to us-asws’’.[182]
