(The book) ‘Kunz Jamie Al Fawaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat’ – It is reported by sheykh Al Taifa, by his chain to Al Fazl Bin Shazan,
‘Raising it to Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic is Saying: “No one from My-azwj creatures will face towards Me-azwj, is more Beloved to Me-azwj, than a supplicator supplicating by the right of Muhammad-saww and People-asws of his-saww Household’.
وَ إِنَّ الْكَلِمَاتِ الَّتِي تَلَقَّاهَا آدَمُ مِنْ رَبِّهِ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ وَلِيِّي فِي نِعْمَتِي وَ الْقَادِرُ عَلَى طَلِبَتِي وَ قَدْ تَعْلَمُ حَاجَتِي فَأَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ إِلَّا مَا رَحِمْتَنِي وَ غَفَرْتَ زَلَّتِي
And the words which Adam-as received from his-as Lord-azwj. He-as said: ‘O Allah-azwj! You-azwj are in Charge of my-as bounties, and Able upon my-as seeing, and You-azwj Know my-as needs, so I-as ask You-azwj by the right of Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, except You-azwj Mercy me-as and Forgive my-as slips’.
فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ يَا آدَمُ أَنَا وَلِيُّ نِعْمَتِكَ وَ الْقَادِرُ عَلَى طَلِبَتِكَ وَ قَدْ عَلِمْتُ حَاجَتَكَ فَكَيْفَ سَأَلْتَنِي بِحَقِّ هَؤُلَاءِ
Allah-azwj Revealed to him-as: “O Adam-as! I-azwj am in Charge of your-as Bounties and am Able upon your-as seeking, and I-azwj have Known your-as needs, so how come you-as are asking Me-azwj by the right of them-asws?”
فَقَالَ يَا رَبِّ إِنَّكَ لَمَّا نَفَخْتَ فِيَّ الرُّوحَ رَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي إِلَى عَرْشِكَ فَإِذَا حَوْلَهُ مَكْتُوبٌ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُ أَكْرَمُ خَلْقِكَ عَلَيْكَ
He-as said: ‘O Lord-azwj! When You-azwj Blew the Spirit into me-as, I-as raised my-as head towards Your-azwj Throne, and there was Inscribed around it: ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj, Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj’. So, I-as knew that he-saww is the most honourable of Your-azwj creatures to You-azwj.
ثُمَّ عَرَضْتَ عَلَيَّ الْأَسْمَاءَ فَكَانَ مِمَّنْ مَرَّ بِي مِنْ أَصْحَابِ الْيَمِينِ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَشْيَاعُهُمْ فَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُمْ أَقْرَبُ خَلْقِكَ إِلَيْكَ قَالَ صَدَقْتَ يَا آدَمُ.
Then You-azwj Presented the names unto me-as, and it so happened that from the ones who passed by me-as, from companions of the right hand were Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and their-asws Shias. So I-as knew they-asws are the closest of Your-azwj creatures to You-azwj’. He-azwj Said: ‘You-as speak the truth, O Adam-as”’.[3]

He-azwj Said to them: “Am I not your Lord?” They said, ‘Yes, we testify’ [7:172]. He-azwj Said: “And Muhammad-saww is My-azwj Rasool-saww?” They said, ‘Yes’. He-azwj Said: “And Ali-asws is Emir of the Momineen?” The creatures refused, all of them in their entirety only out of arrogance, and they revolted from your-asws Wilayah, except for a small number, and they were few of the few, and they are companions of the right’’.[4]

And none belie it except every excessive sinner [83:12] When Our Verses are recited to him, he says, ‘Stories of the former ones’ [83:13] – and it is the first (caliph) and the second (caliph), they were both belying Rasool-Allah-saww, up to His-azwj Words: Then they would arrive to the Blazing Fire [83:16] – the two of them, Then it would be said: ‘This is the one you had been belying!’ [83:17], (belying) Rasool-Allah-saww – meaning both of them and the ones who followed them.
كَلَّا إِنَّ كِتابَ الْأَبْرارِ لَفِي عِلِّيِّينَ وَ ما أَدْراكَ ما عِلِّيُّونَ كِتابٌ مَرْقُومٌ يَشْهَدُهُ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ عَيْناً يَشْرَبُ بِهَا الْمُقَرَّبُونَ وَ هُوَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ فَاطِمَةُ وَ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع
Never! Surely the Book of the righteous would be in Illiyeen [83:18] And what will make you realise what Illiyeen is? [83:19] A numbered Book [83:20] The ones of Proximity would witness it [83:21] – up to His-azwj Words: A spring, the ones of Proximity would be drinking from [83:28], and it is Rasool-Allah-saww and Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and (Syeda) Fatima-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws, and Al-Husayn-asws.
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا الْأَوَّلُ وَ الثَّانِي وَ مَنْ تَابَعَهُمَا كانُوا مِنَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا يَضْحَكُونَ وَ إِذا مَرُّوا بِهِمْ يَتَغامَزُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ إِلَى آخِرِ السُّورَةِ فِيهِمْ.
Surely, those who committed crimes (criminals)– the first (caliph) and the second (caliph) and ones who followed them both, used to laugh at those who believed [83:29] And when he passed by them, they winked at each other [83:30], from Rasool-Allah-saww’ – up to the end of the Chapter is regarding them’’.[16]
17- فس، تفسير القمي أَبِي عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَلَقَنَا مِنْ أَعْلَى عِلِّيِّينَ وَ خَلَقَ قُلُوبَ شِيعَتِنَا مِمَّا خَلَقَنَا مِنْهُ وَ خَلَقَ أَبْدَانَهُمْ مِنْ دُونِ ذَلِكَ فَقُلُوبُهُمْ تَهْوِي إِلَيْنَا لِأَنَّهَا خُلِقَتْ مِمَّا خُلِقْنَا مِنْهُ
Tafseer Al Qummi – My father, from Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Abu Hamza,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted Created us-asws from the high Illiyeen, and Created the hearts of our-asws Shias from what He-azwj Created us-asws, and Created their bodies from besides that. (Therefore) their hearts incline towards us-asws, because these have been Created from what we-asws have been Created from’.
ثُمَّ تَلَا قَوْلَهُ كَلَّا إِنَّ كِتابَ الْأَبْرارِ لَفِي عِلِّيِّينَ وَ ما أَدْراكَ ما عِلِّيُّونَ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ يَشْهَدُهُ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ يُسْقَوْنَ مِنْ رَحِيقٍ مَخْتُومٍ خِتامُهُ مِسْكٌ قَالَ مَاءٌ إِذَا شَرِبَهُ الْمُؤْمِنُ وَجَدَ رَائِحَةَ الْمِسْكِ فِيهِ.
Then he-asws recited these Verses: Never! Surely the Book of the righteous would be in Illiyeen [83:18] And what will make you realise what Illiyeen is? [83:19] – up to His-azwj Words: The ones of Proximity would witness it [83:21] They would be Quenched from sealed nectar [83:25] Its sealing being of musk, [83:26]. He-asws said: ‘Water, when the Momin drinks it, would find aroma of musk in it’.[17]
18- وَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مَنْ تَرَكَ الْخَمْرَ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ سَقَاهُ اللَّهُ مِنَ الرَّحِيقِ الْمَخْتُومِ قَالَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مَنْ تَرَكَ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَ اللَّهِ صِيَانَةً لِنَفْسِهِ وَ فِي ذلِكَ فَلْيَتَنافَسِ الْمُتَنافِسُونَ
And Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘One who neglects the wine, Allah-azwj would Quench him from the Sealed Nectar’. He (the narrator) said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! (What about) one who leaves it for the sake of other than Allah-azwj?’ He-asws said: ‘Yes, by Allah-azwj, it would be maintenance (better sustenance/health) for himself: and regarding that, so let the aspiring ones aspire [83:26]’.
قَالَ فِيمَا ذَكَرْنَاهُ مِنَ الثَّوَابِ الَّذِي يَطْلُبُهُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَ مِزاجُهُ مِنْ تَسْنِيمٍ قَالَ أَشْرَفُ شَرَابِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ يَأْتِيهِمْ مِنْ عالي [عَالٍ] تَسَنَّمَ عَلَيْهِمْ فِي مَنَازِلِهِمْ وَ هِيَ عَيْنٌ يَشْرَبُ بِهَا الْمُقَرَّبُونَ بَحْتاً
He (the narrator) said, ‘Among what we mentioned form the rewards which the Momineen would see is: And its mixture would be from Tasneem [83:27]’. He-asws said: ‘Noblest of the drinks of the inhabitants of the Paradise, brought to them from the high part of Tasneem in their houses, and it is A spring, the ones of Proximity would be drinking from [83:28], purely.
وَ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ ص يَقُولُ اللَّهُ السَّابِقُونَ السَّابِقُونَ أُولئِكَ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ خَدِيجَةُ وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ ذُرِّيَّاتُهُمْ تَلْحَقُ بِهِمْ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ أَلْحَقْنا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ وَ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ يَشْرَبُونَ مِنْ تَسْنِيمٍ بَحْتاً صِرْفاً وَ سَائِرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَمْزُوجاً
And the ones of proximity are Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww. Allah-azwj Says: And the foremost are the foremost [56:10] These are the ones of proximity [56:11] – Rasool-Allah-saww, and (Syeda) Khadeeja-asws, and Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and their-asws offspring, will be united with them-asws. Allah-azwj Says: We will Unite their offspring to be with them [52:21], and the ones of proximity would be drinking from Tasneem purely, in its pure form, and the rest of the Momineen, its admixture’.[18]

(The book) ‘Al Kafi’ – Ali Bin Muhammad, from Sahl, from Ismail Bin Mihran, from Al Hassan Al Zummi, from Idrees Bin Abdullah,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws, the (the narrator) said, ‘I asked about the interpretation of this Verse: What brought you into Saqar (Inferno)? [74:42] They shall say, ‘We were not from the Musalleen [74:43].
قَالَ عَنَى بِهَا لَمْ نَكُنْ مِنْ أَتْبَاعِ الْأَئِمَّةِ الَّذِينَ قَالَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى فِيهِمْ وَ السَّابِقُونَ السَّابِقُونَ أُولئِكَ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ أَ مَا تَرَى النَّاسَ يُسَمُّونَ الَّذِي يَلِي السَّابِقَ فِي الْحَلْبَةِ مصلي [الْمُصَلِّيَ] فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي عَنَى حَيْثُ قَالَ لَمْ نَكُ مِنَ الْمُصَلِّينَ لَمْ نَكُ مِنْ أَتْبَاعِ السَّابِقِينَ.
He-asws said: ‘It Means, ‘We were not the ones who followed the Imams-asws, those for whom Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted Said regarding them-asws: And the foremost are the foremost [56:10] These are the ones of proximity [56:11]. But, have you not seen the people naming the one who follows the preceding one in the (horse) race as ‘Musally’? So that is what they mean when they would be saying, ‘We were not of the ‘Musalleen’, i.e., we were not the ones who followed the foremost ones-asws’’.[19]

وَ الصِّرَاطُ الْمُسْتَقِيمُ هُوَ صِرَاطَانِ صِرَاطٌ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ صِرَاطٌ فِي الْآخِرَةِ فَأَمَّا الصِّرَاطُ الْمُسْتَقِيمُ فِي الدُّنْيَا فَهُوَ مَا قَصُرَ عَنِ الْغُلُوِّ وَ ارْتَفَعَ عَنِ التَّقْصِيرِ وَ اسْتَقَامَ فَلَمْ يَعْدِلْ إِلَى شَيْءٍ مِنَ الْبَاطِلِ
And the Straight Path [1:6] – are two paths – a path in the world and a path in the Hereafter. So, as for the Straight Path in the world, so it is what is reduced from the lofty (exaggeration), and higher than the derogation – and the Straight, so it does not incline towards anything from the falsehood.
وَ أَمَّا الطَّرِيقُ الْآخَرُ فَهُوَ طَرِيقُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ الَّذِي هُوَ مُسْتَقِيمٌ لَا يَعْدِلُونَ عَنِ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَى النَّارِ وَ لَا إِلَى غَيْرِ النَّارِ سِوَى الْجَنَّةِ
And the other path – is the path (taken by the) Momineen to the Paradise which is straight, not deviating away from the Paradise to the Fire, nor to (anywhere) other than the Paradise (which is) besides the Fire’.

Tafseer Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws) (and the book) ‘Ma’any Al-Akhbar’ – By this chain from him-asws regarding Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: The path of those You have Bestowed Bounties upon – i.e., they are saying, ‘Guide us to the path of those who have been Bestowed Bounties upon – with the inclination to Your-azwj Religion and Your-azwj obedience.
وَ هُمُ الَّذِينَ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ مَنْ يُطِعِ اللَّهَ وَ الرَّسُولَ فَأُولئِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ الصِّدِّيقِينَ وَ الشُّهَداءِ وَ الصَّالِحِينَ وَ حَسُنَ أُولئِكَ رَفِيقاً وَ حُكِيَ هَذَا بِعَيْنِهِ عَنْ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع
And they are those (for whom) Allah-azwj the Exalted Said: And the one who obeys Allah and the Rasool, so they would be with those whom Allah has Bestowed Bounties upon, from the Prophets, and the truthful, and the martyrs, and the righteous, and they are good friends [4:69] – and He-azwj Related this exclusively for Amir-Al-Momineen-asws’.
قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَيْسَ هَؤُلَاءِ الْمُنْعَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِالْمَالِ وَ صِحَّةِ الْبَدَنِ وَ إِنْ كَانَ كُلُّ هَذَا نِعْمَةً مِنَ اللَّهِ ظَاهِرَةً أَ لَا تَرَوْنَ أَنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ قَدْ يَكُونُونَ كُفَّاراً أَوْ فُسَّاقاً فَمَا نُدِبْتُمْ إِلَى أَنْ تَدْعُوْا بِأَنْ تُرْشَدُوا إِلَى صِرَاطِهِمْ
He (the narrator) said, ‘Then he (Imam Hassan Al-Askari-asws) said: ‘It isn’t so that they have been Favoured upon with the wealth and the well-being of the body, and even though all of this is a Bounty from Allah-azwj apparently. Are you not seeing that these (Bounties) have happened to be (also) in the Kafirs and the immoral ones? Thus, you have not been called upon that you should be supplicating to be Guided to their path.
وَ إِنَّمَا أُمِرْتُمْ بِالدُّعَاءِ بِأَنْ تُرْشَدُوا إِلَى صِرَاطِ الَّذِينَ أُنْعِمَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِالْإِيمَانِ بِاللَّهِ وَ تَصْدِيقِ رَسُولِهِ وَ بِالْوَلَايَةِ لِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ الطَّيِّبِينَ وَ أَصْحَابِهِ الْخَيِّرِينَ الْمُنْتَجَبِينَ وَ بِالتَّقِيَّةِ الْحَسَنَةِ الَّتِي يُسْلَمُ بِهَا مِنْ شَرِّ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ وَ مِنَ الزِّيَادَةِ فِي آثَامِ أَعْدَاءِ اللَّهِ وَ كُفْرِهِمْ بِأَنْ تُدَارِيَهُمْ
But rather, you have been Commanded with the supplication, because you are seeking Guidance to the path of those whom Allah-azwj has Favoured upon – with the Eman in Allah-azwj and ‘التَّصْدِيقِ’ the ratification of His-azwj Rasool-saww and the Wilayah of Muhammad-saww and his-saww goodly Progeny-asws, and his-saww good companions, the Chosen ones, and with the excellent dissimulation which you can be safe with it, from the enemies of Allah-azwj, and from the excesses of the days (rule) of the enemies of Allah-azwj and their Kufr, that you have to put up with them.
وَ لَا تُغْرِيَهُمْ بِأَذَاكَ وَ أَذَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ بِالْمَعْرِفَةِ بِحُقُوقِ الْإِخْوَانِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَإِنَّهُ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ وَ لَا أَمَةٍ وَالَى مُحَمَّداً وَ آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَصْحَابَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَادَى مَنْ عَادَاهُمْ إِلَّا كَانَ قَدِ اتَّخَذَ مِنْ عَذَابِ اللَّهِ حِصْناً مَنِيعاً وَ جُنَّةً حَصِينَةً
Therefore, do not be lured by them with that and harm the Momineen, and the recognition of the rights of the brethren from the Momineen, for there is none from a servant or a maid who befriends Muhammad-saww and the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and is inimical to their-asws enemies except he would have taken an impregnable fortress from the Punishment of Allah-azwj and a fortified shield.
وَ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ وَ لَا أَمَةٍ دَارَى عِبَادَ اللَّهِ بِأَحْسَنِ الْمُدَارَاةِ فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ بِهَا فِي بَاطِلٍ وَ لَمْ يَخْرُجْ بِهَا مِنْ حَقٍّ إِلَّا جَعَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ نَفَسَهُ تَسْبِيحاً وَ زَكَّى عَمَلَهُ وَ أَعْطَاهُ بَصِيرَةً عَلَى كِتْمَانِ سِرِّنَا وَ احْتِمَالِ الْغَيْظِ لِمَا يَسْمَعُهُ مِنْ أَعْدَائِنَا [وَ] ثَوَابَ الْمُتَشَحِّطِ بِدَمِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ
And there is none from a servant nor a maid who is benevolent to the servants of Allah-azwj with excellent benevolence, and does not enter by into a falsehood and does not exit by it from a right, except Allah-azwj the Exalted would Make his breaths as Glorifications (Tasbeeh), and Purify his deeds, and Grant him insight upon the concealment of our-asws secrets, and bearing the anger due to what he hears from our-asws enemies, and Rewards of the one rolling his blood in the Way of Allah-azwj.
وَ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ أَخَذَ نَفْسَهُ بِحُقُوقِ إِخْوَانِهِ فَوَفَّاهُمْ حُقُوقَهُمْ جَهْدَهُ وَ أَعْطَاهُمْ مُمْكِنَهُ وَ رَضِيَ عَنْهُمْ بِعَفْوِهِمْ وَ تَرَكَ الِاسْتِقْصَاءَ عَلَيْهِمْ فِيمَا يَكُونُ مِنْ زَلَلِهِمْ وَ اغْتَفَرَهَا لَهُمْ إِلَّا قَالَ اللَّهُ لَهُ يَوْمَ يَلْقَاهُ
And there is none from a servant who take himself to be with the rights of his brethren, so he fulfils their rights by his striving, and gives them his abilities and is pleased from them of their fulfilment, and leaves the investigating upon them, in what happens to be from their slips (mistakes), and he forgives these for them, except Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic would Say to him on the Day he Meets Him-azwj: –
يَا عَبْدِي قَضَيْتَ حُقُوقَ إِخْوَانِكَ وَ لَمْ تَسْتَقْصِ عَلَيْهِمْ فِيمَا لَكَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَأَنَا أَجْوَدُ وَ أَكْرَمُ وَ أَوْلَى بِمِثْلِ مَا فَعَلْتَهُ مِنَ الْمُسَامَحَةِ وَ الْكَرَمِ فَأَنَا لَأَقْضِيَنَّكَ الْيَوْمَ عَلَى حَقٍّ وَعَدْتُكَ بِهِ وَ أَزِيدُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِيَ الْوَاسِعِ وَ لَا أَسْتَقْصِي عَلَيْكَ فِي تَقْصِيرِكَ فِي بَعْضِ حُقُوقِي
“O my servant! You fulfilled the rights of your brethren, and did not investigate upon them with regards to what was for you upon them, so I-azwj am more Generous, and more Honourable, and Foremost with the likes of what you did from the forgiveness and the honouring. Therefore, I-azwj shall Fulfil for you today upon the rights of what I-azwj Promised you with, and I-azwj shall Increase you from My-azwj Extensive Grace, and I-azwj (also) will not Investigate upon you regarding your shortcomings of some of My-azwj Rights”’.
قَالَ فَيُلْحِقُهُمْ بِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ وَ أَصْحَابِهِ وَ يَجْعَلُهُ فِي خِيَارِ شِيعَتِهِمْ.
He-asws said: ‘So he would be joined up with Muhammad-saww, and his-saww Progeny-asws, and his-saww companions, and (Allah-azwj will) Make him to be from the best of their-asws Shias’’.[27]

As for the path which is in the world, it is the Imam-asws of the Obligatory obedience, one who recognises him-asws in the world and is guided by his-asws guidance would pass upon the path (Bridge) which is a bridge of Hell in the Hereafter, and one who does not recognise him-asws in the world, his feet would slip from the Bridge in the Hereafter and he would fall into the Fire of Hell’’.[28]

فَصَدِّقْ كَلَامِي وَ أَنْجِزْ وَعْدِي وَ اذْكُرْ عَلِيّاً كَمَا ذَكَرْتَ هَارُونَ فَإِنَّكَ قَدْ ذَكَرْتَ اسْمَهُ فِي الْقُرْآنِ فَقَرَأَ آيَةً
So Ratify my-saww words and Fulfil my-saww promise, and Mention Ali-asws just as You-azwj Mentioned Haroun-as, for You-azwj have Mentioned his-as name in the Quran and Recite a Verse’.
فَأَنْزَلَ تَصْدِيقَ قَوْلِي هَذَا صِرَاطُ عَلِيٍّ مُسْتَقِيمٌ وَ هُوَ هَذَا جَالِسٌ عِنْدِي فَاقْبَلُوا نَصِيحَتَهُ وَ اسْمَعُوا قَوْلَهُ فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ يَسُبُّنِي يَسُبُّهُ اللَّهُ وَ مَنْ سَبَّ عَلِيّاً فَقَدْ سَبَّنِي.
A Ratification of my words was Revealed: this one is My Straight Path [6:153], seated in my-saww presence, therefore accept his-asws advice, and listen to his-asws words, for the one who insults me-saww so he has insulted Allah-azwj, and one who insults Ali-asws so he has insulted me-saww’’.[40]

Tafseer Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws) – ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘‘There is none from a servant nor from a maid who gave allegiance to Amir-Al-Momineen-asws in the apparent, and broke it in the hidden, and stood upon being hypocritical to him-asws – except that when the Angel of death comes to capture his soul – Iblees-la and his-la assistants are resembled for him.
وَ تَمَثَّلَتِ النِّيرَانُ وَ أَصْنَافُ عَفَارِيتِهَا لِعَيْنَيْهِ وَ قَلْبِهِ وَ مَقَاعِدِهِ مِنْ مَضَايِقِهَا وَ تَمَثَّلَ لَهُ أَيْضاً الْجِنَانُ وَ مَنَازِلُهُ فِيهَا لَوْ كَانَ بَقِيَ عَلَى إِيمَانِهِ وَ وَفَى بِبَيْعَتِهِ
And the Fires and the types of its Punishments are resembles for his sight, and his heart, and his seat from its narrowness. And there are resembled for him as well, the Gardens and its houses therein – had he remained upon his Eman and been loyal with his allegiance.
فَيَقُولُ لَهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ انْظُرْ إِلَى تِلْكَ الْجِنَانِ الَّتِي لَا يُقَادِرُ قَدْرَ سَرَّائِهَا وَ بَهْجَتِهَا وَ سُرُورِهَا إِلَّا اللَّهُ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ كَانَتْ مُعَدَّةً لَكَ فَلَوْ كُنْتَ بَقِيتَ عَلَى وَلَايَتِكَ لِأَخِي مُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص كَانَ يَكُونُ إِلَيْهَا مَصِيرُكَ يَوْمَ فَصْلِ الْقَضَاءِ
So, the Angel of death is saying to him, ‘Look! Those are the Gardens which cannot be measured, the extent if its extensiveness, and its joys and its pleasures, except by Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of the worlds. These had been prepared for you, if only you had remained upon the Wilayah of the brother-asws Muhammad-saww, Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj, your destination would have been to it on the day of Decisive Judgment.
وَ لَكِنْ نَكَثْتَ وَ خَالَفْتَ فَتِلْكَ النِّيرَانُ وَ أَصْنَافُ عَذَابِهَا وَ زَبَانِيَتِهَا وَ أَفَاعِيهَا الْفَاغِرَةِ أَفْوَاهُهَا وَ عَقَارِبِهَا النَّاصِبَةِ أَذْنَابَهَا وَ سِبَاعِهَا الشَّائِلَةِ مَخَالِبُهَا وَ سَائِرُ أَصْنَافِ عَذَابِهَا هُوَ لَكَ وَ إِلَيْهَا مَصِيرُكَ
But you broke (the allegiance) and opposed, therefore those Fires and the verities of its Punishments, and the its Zabaniyya (Angels of Hell), and their hammers, and its open-mouthed serpents, and its scorpions with their pointed tails, and its predators their long tentacles, and the rest of the types of its Punishments, it for you and to it is your destination.
فَعِنْدَ ذَلِكَ يَقُولُ يا لَيْتَنِي اتَّخَذْتُ مَعَ الرَّسُولِ سَبِيلًا وَ قَبِلْتُ مَا أَمَرَنِي بِهِ وَ الْتَزَمْتُ مِنْ مُوَالاةِ عَلِيٍّ ع مَا أَلْزَمَنِي.
So, during that he would be saying, Alas! If only I had grabbed hold of the way along with (leading to) the Rasool [25:27], by accepting whatever he-asws had ordered me for and necessitated the friendship of Ali-asws what was necessitated upon me’’.[55]

And about me-asws, two miserable ones before me-asws disputed with me-asws regarding that in which they had no rights over it, and they rode its misguidance, and believed in the ignorance. So evil is what was to them, what they returned to, and evil is what they made as a cradle for themselves. They cursed each other in their own houses, and each one of them distanced himself from his companion saying to him when he met him, ‘Oh! If only between me and you was the distance of the east and the west!’ So evil is the associate [43:38]’.

So evil is the friend who answered him, the miserable one upon his ragged condition, Oh! I wish I had not taken so and so as a friend! [25:28] He strayed me away from the Zikr after when it had come to me; and the Satan has always abandoned the human being! [25:29]’.

(The books) ‘Kunz Jamie Al Fawaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat Al Zaahira’ –Muhammad Bin Al Abbas, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn Bin Humeyd, from Ja’afar Bin Abdullah Al Muhammady, from Kaseer Bin Abbas, from Abu Al aroud,
‘Abu Ja’far-asws regarding Words of Mighty and Majestic: Surely those who say, ‘Our Lord is Allah!’, then they are steadfast, – He-azwj is Saying you should complete the obedience to Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww, and Wilayah of Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, then they are steadfast upon it, the Angels would descend unto them (saying): – on the Day of Qiyamah, ‘Do not fear, and do not grieve, and receive glad tidings of the Paradise which you were Promised [41:30].
فَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الَّذِينَ إِذَا فَزِعُوا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ حِينَ يُبْعَثُونَ تَتَلَقَّاهُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَ يَقُولُونَ لَهُمْ لَا تَخَافُوا وَ لَا تَحْزَنُوا نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ كُنَّا مَعَكُمْ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا لَا نُفَارِقُكُمْ حَتَّى تَدْخُلُوا الْجَنَّةَ وَ أَبْشِرُوا بِالْجَنَّةِ الَّتِي كُنْتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ.
Those ones, they are those who when they panic on the Day of Qiyamah when they are Resurrected, the Angels would meet them and say to them: ‘Don not fear, and do not grieve! We are those who were with you in the life of the world. We will not separate from you until you enter the Paradise, and receive glad tidings of the Paradise which you were Promised [41:30]’’.[81]

‘I asked Abu Ja’far-asws about Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: Surely those who say, ‘Our Lord is Allah!’, then they are steadfast, [41:30]. He-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! It is what you (Shias) are upon, and it is the Word of the Exalted: And if they are steadfast upon the right Way, We would Quench them (with) abundant water [72:16].
قُلْتُ مَتَى تَتَنَزَّلُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ بِ أَلَّا تَخافُوا وَ لا تَحْزَنُوا وَ أَبْشِرُوا بِالْجَنَّةِ الَّتِي كُنْتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ نَحْنُ أَوْلِياؤُكُمْ فِي الْحَياةِ الدُّنْيا وَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ فَقَالَ عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ وَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ.
I said, ‘When would the Angels descend unto them with: ‘Do not fear, and do not grieve, and receive glad tidings of the Paradise which you were Promised [41:30] We are your Guardians in the life of the world and in the Hereafter, [41:31]?’ He-asws said: ‘At death and on the Day of Qiyamah’’.[83]
4- م، تفسير الإمام عليه السلام قَالَ الْإِمَامُ ع قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لَا يَزَالُ الْمُؤْمِنُ خَائِفاً مِنْ سُوءِ الْعَاقِبَةِ لَا يَتَيَقَّنُ الْوُصُولَ إِلَى رِضْوَانِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى يَكُونَ وَقْتُ نَزْعِ رُوحِهِ وَ ظُهُورِ مَلَكِ الْمَوْتِ لَهُ
Tafseer Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws) – The Imam-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allahaw said: ‘The Momin does not cease to be fearing from the evil consequences, nor is he convinced of the arrival to the Pleasure of Allah-azwj – until it happens to be the time of snatching of his soul and the appearance of the Angel of death to him.
وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ مَلَكَ الْمَوْتِ يَرِدُ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِ وَ هُوَ فِي شِدَّةِ عِلَّتِهِ وَ عَظِيمِ ضِيقِ صَدْرِهِ بِمَا يُخَلِّفُهُ مِنْ أَمْوَالِهِ وَ عِيَالِهِ وَ مَا هُوَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ اضْطِرَابِ أَحْوَالِهِ فِي مُعَامِلِيهِ وَ عِيَالِهِ وَ قَدْ بَقِيَتْ فِي نَفْسِهِ حَزَازَتُهَا وَ اقْتَطَعَ دُونَ أَمَانِيِّهِ فَلَمْ يَنَلْهَا
And that is that the Angel of death comes unto the Momin – and he is in the severity of his illness and great constriction of his chest with what he is leaving behind from his wealth, and due to what he is upon from the severity of the desperation of his state – in his affairs and his dependants, and there remains within himself the impact of its regret, and the cutting off of his wishes and he did not attain these.
فَيَقُولُ لَهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ مَا لَكَ تَتَجَرَّعُ غُصَصَكَ فَيَقُولُ لِاضْطِرَابِ أَحْوَالِي وَ اقْتِطِاعِي دُونَ آمَالِي
The Angel of death is saying to him, ‘What is the matter with you ruminating angrily?’ So he is saying, ‘Due to the desperation of my state, and your cutting off to me to be without my wealth and my aspirations’.
فَيَقُولُ لَهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ وَ هَلْ يَجْزَعُ عَاقِلٌ مِنْ فَقْدِ دِرْهَمٍ زَائِفٍ قَدِ اعْتَاضَ عَنْهُ بِأَلْفِ أَلْفِ ضِعْفِ الدُّنْيَا فَيَقُولُ لَا
the Angel of death is saying to him, ‘And would a sensible one grieves from the loss of a fake Dirham and being compensated by a thousand (by) thousand (million) fold multiple of the world?’ So he is saying, ‘No’.
فَيَقُولُ لَهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ فَانْظُرْ فَوْقَكَ فَيَنْظُرُ فَيَرَى دَرَجَاتِ الْجِنَانِ وَ قُصُورَهَا الَّتِي تَقْصُرُ دُونَهَا الْأَمَانِيُّ فَيَقُولُ لَهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ تِلْكَ مَنَازِلُكَ وَ نِعَمُكَ وَ أَمْوَالُكَ وَ أَهْلُكَ وَ عِيَالُكَ وَ مَنْ كَانَ مِنْ أَهْلِكَ هَاهُنَا وَ ذُرِّيَّتُكَ صَالِحاً فَهُمْ هُنَاكَ مَعَكَ أَ فَتَرْضَى بِهِ بَدَلًا مِمَّا هَاهُنَا فَيَقُولُ بَلَى وَ اللَّهِ
So, the Angel of death is saying, ‘Then look above you!’. So he looks and he sees levels of the Gardens and its castles which his own aspirations fell short of, and the Angel of death is saying, ‘Those are your houses and your bounties – and your wealth, and your family, and your dependants, and the ones who were from your family over here and your righteous offspring, so they would be there with you over there. Are you (now) please with it in exchange from what is over here?’ So he is saying, ‘Yes, by Allah-azwj!’
ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لَهُ انْظُرْ فَيَنْظُرُ فَيَرَى مُحَمَّداً وَ عَلِيّاً وَ الطَّيِّبِينَ مِنْ آلِهِمَا فِي أَعْلَى عِلِّيِّينَ فَيَقُولُ لَهُ أَ وَ لَا تَرَاهُمْ هَؤُلَاءِ سَادَاتُكَ وَ أَئِمَّتُكَ هُمْ هُنَاكَ جُلَّاسُكَ وَ آنَاسُكَ أَ فَمَا تَرْضَى بِهِمْ بَدَلًا مِمَّا تُفَارِقُ هَاهُنَا فَيَقُولُ بَلَى وَ رَبِّي
Then he is saying, ‘Look!’ So, he looks and he sees Muhammad-saww, and Ali-asws, and the goodly ones from their-asws Progeny-asws in the lofty Illiyeen. Then he is saying to him, ‘Do you see them-asws? They are your Masters-asws and your-asws Imams-asws. They-asws, over there, would be your companions and your comforters. So, are you not pleased with them-asws in exchange from what you are being separated from over here?’ He would be saying, ‘Yes, by my Lord-azwj!’.
فَذَلِكَ مَا قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى إِنَّ الَّذِينَ قالُوا رَبُّنَا اللَّهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَقامُوا تَتَنَزَّلُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمَلائِكَةُ أَلَّا تَخافُوا فَمَا أَمَامَكُمْ مِنَ الْأَهْوَالِ فَقَدْ كُفِيتُمُوهَا وَ لا تَحْزَنُوا عَلَى مَا تُخَلِّفُونَهُ مِنَ الذَّرَارِيِّ وَ الْعِيَالِ وَ الْأَمْوَالِ فَهَذَا الَّذِي شَاهَدْتُمُوهُ فِي الْجِنَانِ بَدَلًا مِنْهُمْ وَ أَبْشِرُوا بِالْجَنَّةِ الَّتِي كُنْتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ هَذِهِ مَنَازِلِكُمْ وَ هَؤُلَاءِ سَادَاتُكُمْ آنَاسُكُمْ وَ جُلَّاسُكُمْ
So that is what Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Says: Those that are saying, ‘Our Lord is Allah-azwj!’ Then they are steadfast – the Angels would be descending unto them saying, ‘Do not be fearing nor be grieving [41:30] – for whatever is in front of you from the states, so you would be sufficed (with) these, and do not be grieving upon what you are leaving behind from the offspring and the dependants, and the wealth, for this, which you are witnessing to be in the Gardens, is in exchange from them and receive glad tidings of the Paradise which you were Promised [41:30]. These are your dwelling, and they-asws are your Masters-asws and your comforters, and your companions’.
نَحْنُ أَوْلِياؤُكُمْ فِي الْحَياةِ الدُّنْيا وَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَ لَكُمْ فِيها ما تَشْتَهِي أَنْفُسُكُمْ وَ لَكُمْ فِيها ما تَدَّعُونَ نُزُلًا مِنْ غَفُورٍ رَحِيمٍ.
We are your Guardians in the life of the world and in the Hereafter, and for you therein is whatever your souls desire, and for you therein would be whatever you call for [41:31] Being a hospitality from the Forgiving, Merciful [41:32]’’.[84]

(The book) ‘Basaair Al Darajaat’ – Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Moalla Bin Muhammad, from Al Hassan, from Al Hassan, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad who said,
‘I asked Al-Reza-asws about Words of Mighty and Majestic: O you who believe! Fear Allah and be with the truthful ones [9:119], he-asws said: ‘The truthful are the Imams-asws, the righteous (are those who are) in their-asws obedience’’.[93]
6- فر، تفسير فرات بن إبراهيم الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ مُعَنْعَناً عَنْ أَصْبَغَ بْنِ نُبَاتَةَ قَالَ لِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَذْكُرَ حَدِيثاً قُلْتُ فَمَا يَمْنَعُكَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنْ تَذْكُرَهُ فَقَالَ مَا قُلْتُ هَذَا إِلَّا وَ أَنَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَذْكُرَهُ
Tafseer Furat Bin Ibrahim – Al Hassan Bin Ali Bin Bazie transmitting from Asbagh Bin Nubata who said,
‘Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws said to me: ‘I-asws want to mention a Hadeeth’. So, Ammar Bin Yasser said, ‘So mention it’. He-asws said: ‘I-asws want to mention a Hadeeth’. Abu Ayoub Al-Ansary said, ‘So what prevent you-asws, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws from mentioning it?’ He-asws said: ‘I-asws did not say this except and I-asws wanted to mention it’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ ع إِذَا جَمَعَ اللَّهُ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ كَانَ أَفْضَلُهُمْ سَبْعَةً مِنَّا بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ
Then he-asws said: ‘When Allah-azwj Gathers the formers ones and the latter ones, it would be so that the most superior of them would be seven of us-asws, the sons-asws of Abdul Muttalib-asws.
الْأَنْبِيَاءُ أَكْرَمُ الْخَلْقِ وَ نَبِيُّنَا أَفْضَلُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ عَلَيْهِمُ الصَّلَاةُ وَ السَّلَامُ ثُمَّ الْأَوْصِيَاءُ أَفْضَلُ الْأُمَمِ بَعْدَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ وَصِيُّهُ أَفْضَلُ الْأَوْصِيَاءِ
The Prophets-as are the most prestigious of the creatures to Allah-azwj, and our-asws Prophet-saww is the most superior (most prestigious) of the Prophets-as. Then the successors-as are the most superior of the communities after the Prophets-as, and his-saww successor-asws is the most superior of the successors-as.
ثُمَّ الشُّهَدَاءُ أَفْضَلُ الْأُمَمِ بَعْدَ الْأَوْصِيَاءِ وَ حَمْزَةُ سَيِّدُ الشُّهَدَاءِ وَ جَعْفَرٌ ذُو الْجَنَاحَيْنِ يَطِيرُ مَعَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ لَمْ يَنْحَلْهُ شَهِيداً قَطُّ قَبْلَهُ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعِينَ وَ إِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ أَكْرَمَ اللَّهُ بِهِ مُحَمَّداً ص
Then the martyrs are the most superior of the communities after the Prophets-as and the successors-as, and Hamza-asws is the chief of the martyrs and Ja’far-asws with the two wings flies along with the Angels. A martyr cannot be attributed before him (the two of them) at all. And rather, that is a thing Allah-azwj has Honoured by it the face of Muhammad-saww’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ فَأُولئِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ الصِّدِّيقِينَ وَ الشُّهَداءِ وَ الصَّالِحِينَ وَ حَسُنَ أُولئِكَ رَفِيقاً ذلِكَ الْفَضْلُ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَ كَفى بِاللَّهِ عَلِيماً ثُمَّ السِّبْطَانِ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ وَ الْمَهْدِيُّ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّلَامُ وَ التَّحِيَّةُ وَ الْإِكْرَامُ جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مِمَّنْ يَشَاءُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ.
Then he-asws said: ‘so they are those upon whom Allah has Bestowed Favours from the Prophets and the Truthful and the Martyrs and the Righteous; and a goodly company are they! [4:69] That is the Grace from Allah, and Suffice with Allah as a Knower [4:70]. Then the two grandsons-asws, Hassan-asws and Husayn-asws and Al-Mahdi-asws, upon them-asws be the greetings, and the salutations and the honour. Allah-azwj Made them-asws to be from the one He-azwj so Desires to from the People-asws of the Household’’.[94]

Tafseer Furat Bin Ibrahim – Muhammad Bin Al Qasim Bin Ubeyd transmitting from Suleyman Al Daylami who said,
‘I was in the presence of Abu Abdullah-asws when Abu Baseer entered and the breathing had seized him. When he had taken his seat, Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘O Abu Muhammad! What is this high breathing?’ He said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! My age is old, and my bones are brittle, and my term (death) has approached, and I don’t know what I want upon it from the matters of my Hereafter’. Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘O Abu Muhammad, and you are saying this?’ He said, ‘And how can I not say this?’
فَذَكَرَ كَلَاماً ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ لَقَدْ ذَكَرَ اللَّهُ فِي كِتَابِهِ الْمُبِينِ فَأُولئِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ الصِّدِّيقِينَ وَ الشُّهَداءِ وَ الصَّالِحِينَ وَ حَسُنَ أُولئِكَ رَفِيقاً فَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فِي الْآيَةِ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ نَحْنُ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ الصِّدِّيقِينَ وَ الشُّهَداءِ وَ أَنْتُمُ الصَّالِحُونَ فَتَسَمَّوْا بِالصَّلَاحِ كَمَا سَمَّاكُمُ اللَّهُ يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ.
He-asws mentioned some words, then said: ‘O Abu Muhammad! Allah-azwj has Mentioned you all in His-azwj Book. He-azwj Said: so they are those upon whom Allah has Bestowed Favours from the Prophets and the Truthful and the Martyrs and the Righteous; and a goodly company are they! [4:69]. So Rasool-Allah-saww in the Verse is ‘from the Prophets’, and we-asws, in this place are the ‘truthful and the martyrs’, and you (Shias) are the ‘righteous’, therefore adopt this name by the righteousness as Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic has Named you, O Abu Muhammad!’’[95]

Allah-azwj the Exalted Said: From the Momineen there are men who ratified what they made a pact with Allah upon. So, from them is one who fulfilled his vow, – and he is Hamza-asws Bin Abdul Muttalib-asws, and from them is one who awaits, and he is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. Allah-azwj Said: and they did not change with any alteration [33:23], and Allah-azwj Said: Fear Allah and be with the truthful ones [9:119], and they, over here, are Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww’’.[98]

‘From Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws having said: ‘An Angel descended unto the Prophet-saww having twenty thousand heads for him. The Prophet-saww leapt to kiss his hand, but the Angel said, ‘Wait, no! Wait, no, O Muhammad-saww, for by Allah-azwj, you-saww are more honourable to Allah-azwj than the inhabitants of the sky and the inhabitants of all the planets’.
وَ الْمَلَكُ يُقَالُ لَهُ مَحْمُودٌ فَإِذَا بَيْنَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ مَكْتُوبٌ- لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَلِيٌّ الصِّدِّيقُ الْأَكْبَرُ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ حَبِيبِي مَحْمُودُ مُنْذُ كَمْ هَذَا مَكْتُوبٌ بَيْنَ مَنْكِبَيْكَ قَالَ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ اللَّهُ آدَمَ أَبَاكَ بِاثْنَيْ عَشَرَ أَلْفَ عَامٍ.
And the Angel was called Mahmoud, and there, between his shoulders was inscribed: ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj, Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj, Ali-asws is the greatest truthful’. The Prophet-saww said to him: ‘My beloved Mahmoud! Since how long has this been inscribed between your shoulders?’ He said, ‘From before Allah-azwj Created your-saww father-as Adam-as, by twelve thousand years’’.[101]

I (Majlisi) say, ‘It is reported by Al Tabary, from Al Ayyashi, by his chain from Minhal Al Qassab who said,
‘I said to Abu Abdullah-asws, ‘Supplicate to Allah-azwj that He-azwj Graces me the martyrdom’.
فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ شَهِيدٌ ثُمَّ تَلَا وَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَ رُسُلِهِ أُولئِكَ هُمُ الصِّدِّيقُونَ وَ الشُّهَداءُ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ لَهُمْ أَجْرُهُمْ وَ نُورُهُمْ.
He-asws said: ‘The Momin is a martyr’. Then he-asws recited: And those who believe in Allah and His Rasool, they are the truthful and the martyrs in the Presence of their Lord. For them would be their Recompense and their Light. [57:19]’’.[102]
15- وَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ أَيْضاً عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ قَالَ: كُنَّا عِنْدَ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع فَقَالَ الْعَارِفُ مِنْكُمْ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ الْمُنْتَظِرُ لَهُ الْمُحْتَسِبُ فِيهِ الْخَيْرَ كَمَنْ جَاهَدَ وَ اللَّهِ مَعَ قَائِمِ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ص بِسَيْفِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ بَلْ وَ اللَّهِ كَمَنْ جَاهَدَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص بِسَيْفِهِ
And by his chain as well, from Al Haris Bin Al Mugheira who said,
‘‘I was in the presence of Abu Ja’far-asws when he-asws said: ‘The one among you who understands this matter (Al-Qaim-asws) and waits for it, the good has been calculated in it, as being like the one who fought, by Allah-azwj, alongside Al-Qaim-asws of the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww with his sword’.

Then he-asws said: ‘But, as if he fought alongside Rasool-Allah-saww with his sword’. Then he-asws said, for the third time: ‘But, by Allah-azwj, like the one who was martyred alongside Rasool-Allah-saww in his marquee, and regarding you all is a Verse from the Book of Allah-azwj’.
قُلْتُ أَيُّ آيَةٍ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ قَالَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَ رُسُلِهِ أُولئِكَ هُمُ الصِّدِّيقُونَ وَ الشُّهَداءُ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ لَهُمْ أَجْرُهُمْ وَ نُورُهُمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ صِرْتُمْ وَ اللَّهِ صَادِقِينَ شُهَدَاءَ عِنْدَ رَبِّكُمْ.
I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, and which Verse?’ He-asws said: ‘The Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: And those who believe in Allah and His Rasool, those, they are the truthful and the martyrs in the Presence of their Lord’. Then he-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! All you (Shias) would become the truthful, the martyrs in the presence of your Lord-azwj’’.[103]

(The book) ‘Al Amaali’ of Al Sadouq – Ibn Musa, from Al Asady, from Sahl, from Mubara,
‘A slave of Al-Reza-asws, from Al-Reza-asws having said: ‘‘A Momin cannot become a Momin until there are three characteristics in him (that he adheres to) – A Sunnah from his Lord-azwj, and a Sunnah from his Prophet-saww, and a Sunnah from his Guardian-asws.
فَأَمَّا السُّنَّةُ مِنْ رَبِّهِ فَكِتْمَانُ سِرِّهِ قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُهُ عالِمُ الْغَيْبِ فَلا يُظْهِرُ عَلى غَيْبِهِ أَحَداً إِلَّا مَنِ ارْتَضى مِنْ رَسُولٍ
As for the Sunnah from his Lord-azwj, so it is the concealment of the secret. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Says: (He is) Knower of the unseen, and He does not Reveal His hidden matters upon anyone [72:26] Except one He Chooses from a Rasool [72:27].
وَ أَمَّا السُّنَّةُ مِنْ نَبِيِّهِ فَمُدَارَاةُ النَّاسِ فَقَالَ خُذِ الْعَفْوَ وَ أْمُرْ بِالْعُرْفِ وَ أَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْجاهِلِينَ
And as for the Sunnah from his Prophet-saww, so it is the concealment from the people, for Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Commanded His-azwj Prophet-saww for concealment from the people, so He-azwj Said: Take to the Forgiveness and enjoin good and turn away from the ignorant ones [7:199].
وَ أَمَّا السُّنَّةُ مِنْ وَلِيِّهِ فَالصَّبْرُ فِي الْبَأْسَاءِ وَ الضَّرَّاءِ وَ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُهُ وَ الصَّابِرِينَ فِي الْبَأْساءِ وَ الضَّرَّاءِ وَ حِينَ الْبَأْسِ أُولئِكَ الَّذِينَ صَدَقُوا وَ أُولئِكَ هُمُ الْمُتَّقُونَ.
And as for the Sunnah from his Guardian-asws, so it is the patience upon the evil and adversities. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Says: and the patient ones during the adversity and the desperation and when distressed; they are those who are true, and these, they are the fearing ones [2:177]’’.[104]

7- ما، الأمالي للشيخ الطوسي بِإِسْنَادٍ عَنْ عَمَّارٍ السَّابَاطِيِّ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنَّ أَبَا أُمَيَّةَ يُوسُفَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ حَدَّثَ عَنْكَ أَنَّكَ قُلْتَ لَا يَضُرُّ مَعَ الْإِيمَانِ عَمَلٌ وَ لَا يَنْفَعُ مَعَ الْكُفْرِ عَمَلٌ
(The book) ‘Al Amaali’ of the sheykh Al Tusi – By his chain from Ammar Al Sabaty who said,
‘I said to Abu Abdullah-asws, ‘Abu Umayya Yusuf Bin Sabit narrated from you-asws that you-asws said: ‘With the Eman, neither can any deed harm, nor with the Kufr can any deed benefit’’.
فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَسْأَلْنِي أَبُو أُمَيَّةَ عَنْ تَفْسِيرِهَا إِنَّمَا عَنَيْتُ بِهَذَا أَنَّهُ مَنْ عَرَفَ الْإِمَامَ مِنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ص وَ تَوَلَّاهُ ثُمَّ عَمِلَ لِنَفْسِهِ مَا شَاءَ مِنْ عَمَلِ الْخَيْرِ قُبِلَ مِنْهُ ذَلِكَ وَ ضُوعِفَ لَهُ أَضْعَافاً كَثِيرَةً وَ انْتَفَعَ بِأَعْمَالِ الْخَيْرِ مَعَ الْمَعْرِفَةِ فَهَذَا مَا عَنَيْتُ بِذَلِكَ
He-asws said: ‘Surely, Abu Umayya did not as me-asws for its interpretation. But rather what I-asws meant by this is that one who recognises the Imam-asws from Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and be in his-asws Wilayah, then does any deed for himself from the good deeds, that would be Accepted from him, with a lot of multiple, and he would benefit with the good deed along with the recognition. So, this is what I-asws meant with that.
وَ كَذَلِكَ لَا يَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ مِنَ الْعِبَادِ الْأَعْمَالَ الصَّالِحَةَ الَّتِي يَعْمَلُونَهَا إِذَا تَوَلَّوُا الْإِمَامَ الْجَائِرَ الَّذِي لَيْسَ مِنَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى
And similar to that, Allah-azwj does not Accept the righteous deeds from the servant which they perform when they are in the wilayah of the tyrannous imam who isn’t from Allah-azwj the Exalted’.
فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ أَ لَيْسَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى قَالَ مَنْ جاءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ خَيْرٌ مِنْها وَ هُمْ مِنْ فَزَعٍ يَوْمَئِذٍ آمِنُونَ فَكَيْفَ لَا يَنْفَعُ الْعَمَلُ الصَّالِحُ مِمَّنْ يُوَالِي أَئِمَّةَ الْجَوْرِ
Abdullah Bin Abu Yafour said to him-asws, ‘Doesn’t Allah-azwj the Exalted Say: One who comes with the good deed, for him would be better than it, and they would be secure from the panic of that Day [27:89]. So, how can there be no benefit of the righteous deeds for the ones who are in the wilayah of the tyrannical imams?’
فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا الْحَسَنَةُ الَّتِي عَنَاهَا اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فِي هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ هِيَ مَعْرِفَةُ الْإِمَامِ وَ طَاعَتُهُ
Abu Abdullah-asws said to him: ‘Do you know what is the good deed which Allah-azwj the Exalted means in this Verse? It is recognition of the Imam-asws and obeying him-asws.
وَ قَدْ قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى وَ مَنْ جاءَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ فَكُبَّتْ وُجُوهُهُمْ فِي النَّارِ هَلْ تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا ما كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ وَ إِنَّمَا أَرَادَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ إِنْكَارَ الْإِمَامِ الَّذِي هُوَ مِنَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى
And Allah-azwj the Exalted has Said: And one who comes with the evil deed, they would be thrown upon their faces into the Fire. Will you be Recompensed except for what you had been doing? [27:90]. And rather, what He-azwj Meant by the evil deed is denial of the Imam-asws, one who is from Allah-azwj the Exalted’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مَنْ جَاءَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بِوَلَايَةِ إِمَامٍ جَائِرٍ لَيْسَ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَ جَاءَ مُنْكِراً لِحَقِّنَا جَاحِداً لِوَلَايَتِنَا أَكَبَّهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فِي النَّارِ.
Then Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘One whom comes on the Day of Qiyamah with the wilayah of a tyrannical imam who isn’t from Allah-azwj and comes as a denier of our-asws rights, a rejecter of our-asws Wilayah, Allah-azwj the Exalted would Fling him on the Day of Qiyamah into the Fire’’.[115]

وَ أَمَّا مَنْ بَخِلَ وَ اسْتَغْنى وَ كَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنى قَالَ بِالْوَلَايَةِ فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرى.

Tafseer Furat Bin Ibrahim – Muhammad Bin Al Qasim Bin Ubeyd, by his chain to,
‘Abu Abdullah-asws having recited: One who comes with the good deed, then for him would be ten the likes of it, [6:160]. He-asws said: ‘When he comes with it along with the Wilayah, then for him would be ten the lie of it, and when he comes with the evil deed, so he would not be Recompensed except the like of it, [6:160].
وَ أَمَّا قَوْلُهُ مَنْ جاءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ خَيْرٌ مِنْها وَ هُمْ مِنْ فَزَعٍ يَوْمَئِذٍ آمِنُونَ فَالْحَسَنَةُ وَلَايَتُنَا وَ حُبُّنَا وَ مَنْ جاءَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ فَكُبَّتْ وُجُوهُهُمْ فِي النَّارِ فَهِيَ بُغْضُنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ لَا يَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ لَهُمْ عَمَلًا وَ لَا صَرْفاً وَ لَا عَدْلًا وَ هُمْ فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ لا يُخْرَجُونَ مِنْها وَ لا يُخَفَّفُ عَنْهُمُ الْعَذابُ.
And as for His-azwj Words: One who comes with the good deed, for him would be better than it, and they would be secure from the panic of that Day [27:89]. So, the good deed is our-asws Wilayah and our-asws love; And one who comes with the evil deed, they would be thrown upon their faces into the Fire. [27:90], so it is our-asws hatred, People-asws of the Household. Allah-azwj will neither Accept any deed of theirs, nor an exchange, nor a replacement, and they would be in the Fire of Hell, neither will they be exiting from it [45:35] and the Punishment would not be Lightened from them Helped [2:86]’’.[125]

‘‘One day we were in front of Ali-asws Bin Musa Al-Reza-asws, so he-asws said: ‘There is no real bounty in the world’.
فَقَالَ لَهُ بَعْضُ الْفُقَهَاءِ مِمَّنْ يَحْضُرُهُ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ ثُمَّ لَتُسْئَلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعِيمِ أَ مَا هَذَا النَّعِيمُ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ هُوَ الْمَاءُ الْبَارِدُ
One of the Jurists from the ones who were in his-asws presence, said to him-asws, ‘The Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: Then you will be Questioned on that Day about the boons [102:8], but this is the Bounty in the world and it is the cold water?’
فَقَالَ لَهُ الرِّضَا ع وَ عَلَا صَوْتُهُ كَذَا فَسَّرْتُمُوهُ أَنْتُمْ وَ جَعَلْتُمُوهُ عَلَى ضُرُوبٍ فَقَالَ طَائِفَةٌ هُوَ الْمَاءُ الْبَارِدُ وَ قَالَ غَيْرُهُمْ هُوَ الطَّعَامُ الطَّيِّبُ وَ قَالَ آخَرُونَ هُوَ النَّوْمُ الطَّيِّبُ
Al-Reza-asws said to him in a raised voice: ‘Such is how you are interpreting it as, and you are making it upon (various) examples. So, a group says, ‘It is the cold water’, and others say, ‘It is the good food’, and others say, ‘It is the good sleep’.
وَ لَقَدْ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَنَّ أَقْوَالَكُمْ هَذِهِ ذُكِرَتْ عِنْدَهُ فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ لَتُسْئَلُنَ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعِيمِ فَغَضِبَ ع وَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَا يَسْأَلُ عِبَادَهُ عَمَّا تَفَضَّلَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِهِ وَ لَا يَمُنُّ بِذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَ الِامْتِنَانُ بِالْإِنْعَامِ مُسْتَقْبَحٌ مِنَ الْمَخْلُوقِينَ فَكَيْفَ يُضَافُ إِلَى الْخَالِقِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مَا لَا يَرْضَى لِلْمَخْلُوقِينَ بِهِ

So how can it be furthered to the Creator Mighty and Majestic, what the creatures are not agreeable with?
وَ لَكِنَّ النَّعِيمَ حُبُّنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَ مُوَالاتُنَا يَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَنْهُ بَعْدَ التَّوْحِيدِ وَ النُّبُوَّةِ لِأَنَّ الْعَبْدَ إِذَا وَفَى بِذَلِكَ أَدَّاهُ إِلَى نَعِيمِ الْجَنَّةِ الَّذِي لَا يَزُولُ
But the Bounty is our-asws love, the People-asws of the Household, and to be in our-asws Wilayah. Allah-azwj would Question you all about it after the Tawheed and the Prophet-hood, because if the servant is loyal to that, the bounties would be added to him of the Paradise, where these would never decline.

He-asws said: ‘It was Revealed regarding the two immoral ones of Quraysh – clan of Umayya and clan of Al-Mugheira. As for the clan of Al-Mugheira, Allah-azwj Cut off their tails on the day of (battle of) Badr, and as for clan of Umarra, they are being respited for a while’.

Tafseer Al Qummi – They are recognising the Favour of Allah, then they are denying it, [16:83]. He said, ‘They are recognising the Favour of Allah-azwj, and they are the Imams-asws, and the evidence upon that the Imams-asws are the Favour of Allah-azwj are the Words of Allah-azwj: Do you not see those who replaced the Favour of Allah for Kufr [14:28].

[14:28]. That is the meaning of the words of the Prophet-saww: ‘Do not be returning after me-saww becoming Kafirs, striking the necks of each other’.
وَ بُنِيَ الدِّينُ عَلَى اتِّبَاعِ النَّبِيِّ ص قُلْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تُحِبُّونَ اللَّهَ فَاتَّبِعُونِي وَ اتِّبَاعِ الْكِتَابِ وَ اتَّبَعُوا النُّورَ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَ مَعَهُ وَ اتِّبَاعِ الْأَئِمَّةِ مِنْ أَوْلَادِهِ وَ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوهُمْ بِإِحْسانٍ
And the Religion is built upon following the Prophet-saww: Say (O Rasool): ‘If you love Allah, then follow me. [3:32], and following the Book: and follow the Light which has descended with him, [7:157], and following the Imams-asws from his-saww children: and those who followed them with goodness [9:100].

Thus, following the Prophet-saww would inherit the love, Allah will Love you’ [3:31], and following the Book would inherit the fortunes, then the one who follows Guidance, he will neither stray nor be wretched [20:123], and following the Imams-asws would inherit the Paradise’’.[135]

Tafseer Al-Qummi – A man in said in the presence of Abu Ja’far-asws, and Bestowed upon you His Bounties, apparent and hidden? [31:20].

By Allah-azwj! A people believed in the apparent Bounty and the hidden, and a people believed in the apparent and did not believe in the hidden. So, Allah-azwj Revealed: O you Rasool! Do not let them grieve you, those who are hastening into Kufr, from those who are saying, ‘We believe’, with their mouths while their hearts are not believing, [5:41].

‘I was in the presence of Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws and he-asws forwarded a meal to us, I had not eaten food the like of it at all! He-asws said to me: ‘O Sadeyr! How do you view this meal of ours?’ I said, ‘May my father and my mother be (sacrificed) for you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! I have not eaten the like of it, at all, nor do I think that I will be eating the like of it, ever!’

Then my eyes overflowed and I cried. He-asws said to me: ‘O Sadeyr! What makes you cry?’ I said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! I remembered a Vere in the Book of Allah-azwj’. He-asws said: ‘And what is it?’ I said, ‘Words of Allah-azwj in His-azwj Book: Then you will be Questioned on that Day about the boons [102:8]. I fear that this meal would happen to be which Allah-azwj would Question about’.

So, what are the boons?’ He-asws said to me: ‘Love of Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and his-asws family.

(The books) ‘Kunz Jamie Al Fawaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat Al Zaahira’ – It is reported by the sheyh Al Mufeed, by his chain to Muhammad Bin Al Saib Al Kalby who said,
‘When Al-Sadiq-asws arrived at Al-Iraq, he-asws descended at Al-Hira. Abu Hanifa came up to him and asked him-asws some questions, and from what he asked was that he said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, what is ‘enjoining of the good’ (Al-Amr Bil Ma’rouf)?’ So he-asws said: ‘Al-Ma’rouf, O Abu Hanifa, is the one-asws who is well known among the inhabitants of the sky, and well known among the inhabitants of the earth, and that is Amir-Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’.
قَالَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ فَمَا الْمُنْكَرُ قَالَ اللَّذَانِ ظَلَمَاهُ حَقَّهُ وَ ابْتَزَّاهُ أَمْرَهُ وَ حَمَلَا النَّاسَ عَلَى كَتِفِهِ قَالَ أَلَا مَا هُوَ أَنْ تَرَى الرَّجُلَ عَلَى مَعَاصِي اللَّهِ فَتَنْهَاهُ عَنْهَا فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع لَيْسَ ذَاكَ بِأَمْرٍ بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَ لَا نَهْيٍ عَنْ مُنْكَرٍ إِنَّمَا ذَاكَ خَيْرٌ قَدَّمَهُ
He said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, so what is the evil (Al-Munkar)?’ He-asws said: ‘The one who wronged his-asws right, and blackmailed for its matter, and carried the people upon his shoulder’. He said, ‘Indeed! Who is he that you-asws see the man to be on the disobedience of Allah-azwj, so that we can forbid from him?’ Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘That is not ‘enjoining to the good’ (Al-Amr Bil Ma’rouf’) nor is it ‘forbidding from the evil’ (Nahiy An Al-Munkar), but rather that is good he sends ahead’.

Abu Hanifa said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, inform me about the Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: Then you will be Questioned on that Day about the boons (bounties) [102:8]. He-asws said: ‘So what do you have, O Abu Hanifa?’ He said, ‘The security in the flock, and the physical health, and the present livelihood’.

So he-asws said: ‘O Abu Hanifa! If Allah-azwj were to Pause you on the Day of Judgement until He-azwj Questions you about every food that you have eaten and every drink you have drunk, it would be a very lengthy pause for you’.
قَالَ فَمَا النَّعِيمُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ قَالَ النَّعِيمُ نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ أَنْقَذَ اللَّهُ النَّاسَ بِنَا مِنَ الضَّلَالَةِ وَ بَصَّرَهُمْ بِنَا مِنَ الْعَمَى وَ عَلَّمَهُمْ بِنَا مِنَ الْجَهْلِ
He said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, so what are the boons?’ He-asws said: ‘We-asws are the boons which Allah-azwj has Saved the people with, by us-asws from the misguidance, and Made them to see by us-asws from their blindness, and Taught them by us-asws from their ignorance’.
قَالَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ الْقُرْآنُ جَدِيداً أَبَداً قَالَ لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُجْعَلْ لِزَمَانٍ دُونَ زَمَانٍ فَتُخْلِقَهُ الْأَيَّامُ وَ لَوْ كَانَ كَذَلِكَ لَفَنِيَ الْقُرْآنُ قَبْلَ فَنَاءِ الْعَالَمِ.
He said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, so how can the Quran be fresh forever?’ He-asws said: ‘Because there will never come an era where its Verses are not valid, and had it been that, the Quran would perish before the world ceases to be’’.[165]

Tafseer Imam (Hassan Al-Askari)-asws – ‘Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said: Recall My Favour which I Bestowed upon you, by Sending Musa-as and Haroun-as to your ancestors, with the Prophet-hood. So they-as guided them to the Prophet-hood of Muhammad-saww and the successorship of Ali-asws and the Imamate of the his-saww goodly family. And We-azwj Took upon you all the Pacts with that and the Covenant – which, if you had fulfilled these, your would have been kings in His-azwj Gardens, deserving of His-azwj Prestige and His-azwj Pleasure.
وَ أَنِّي فَضَّلْتُكُمْ عَلَى الْعالَمِينَ هُنَاكَ أَيْ فَعَلْتُهُ بِأَسْلَافِكُمْ فَفَضَّلْتُهُمْ دِيناً وَ دُنْيَا أَمَّا تَفْضِيلُهُمْ فِي الدِّينِ فَلِقَبُولِهِمْ نُبُوَّةَ مُحَمَّدٍ ص وَ وَلَايَةَ عَلِيٍّ ع وَ آلِهِمَا الطَّيِّبِينَ
And I had Graced you all in the two worlds [2:47] – over there, i.e., ‘I-azwj Did it with your ancestors, Gracing them the Religion and the world. As for their Grace in the Religion, it was for their acceptance of the Prophet-hood of Muhammad-saww and the Wilayah of Ali-asws and their-asws goodly Progeny-asws.
وَ أَمَّا فِي الدُّنْيَا فَبِأَنْ ظَلَّلْتُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْغَمَامَ وَ أَنْزَلْتُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمَنَّ وَ السَّلْوَى وَ سَقَيْتُهُمْ مِنْ حَجَرٍ مَاءً عَذْباً وَ فَلَقْتُ لَهُمُ الْبَحْرَ فَأَنْجَيْتُهُمْ وَ أَغْرَقْتُ أَعْدَاءَهُمْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَ قَوْمَهُ وَ فَضَّلْتُهُمْ بِذَلِكَ عَلَى عَالَمِي زَمَانِهِم الَّذِينَ خَالَفُوا طَرَائِقَهُمْ وَ حَادُوا عَنْ سَبِيلِهِمْ
And as for their Gracing them in the world, it was by Shading the clouds upon them, and Sending down upon them the Manna and quails, and Quenching them with fresh water from a rock, and Parting the sea for them. Thus, I-azwj Rescued them and Drowned their enemies, Pharaoh-la and his-la people. And I-azwj Excelled them upon the communities of their era which opposed their ways and guided away from their way.
ثُمَّ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَهُمْ فَإِذَا فَعَلْتُ هَذَا بِأَسْلَافِكُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ لِقَبُولِهِمْ وَلَايَةَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ فَبِالْحَرِيِّ أَنْ أَزِيدَكُمْ فَضْلًا فِي هَذَا الزَّمَانِ إِذَا أَنْتُمْ وَفَيْتُمْ بِمَا آخُذُ مِنَ الْعُهُودِ وَ الْمَوَاثِيقِ عَلَيْكُمْ.
Then Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said to them: “So when I-azwj have Done this with your ancestors during that era for their acceptance of the Wilayah of Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws, so rather I-asws will Increase you all in Grace during this era when you fulfil was I-azwj Took from the Pact and the Covenant upon you.”[179]

One of them said, ‘If we were to disbelieve in this Verse, we will be disbelieving in the rest of them, and if we were to believe, then this would be humiliation when the son-asws of Abu Talib-asws will overcome upon us’. They said, ‘We have known that Muhammad-saww is truthful regarding what he-saww says, but we shall be in his-saww governance and not obey Ali-asws in whatever he-asws orders us’’.

He-asws said: ‘So this Verse was Revealed: They are recognising the Favour of Allah, then they are denying it, [16:83] recognising, meaning Wilayah of Ali-asws, and most of them are Kafirs [16:83] with the Wilayah’.[180]

(The books) ‘Kunz Jamie Al Fawaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat Al Zaahira’ – It is reported by Al Sadouq, by his chain to Muhammad Bin Al Fayz Bin Al Muhtar,
‘From Abu Ja’far Muhammad-asws Bin Ali Al-Baqir-asws, from his-asws father-asws from his-asws grandfather-asws having said: ‘One day Rasool-Allah-saww came out and he-saww was riding, and Ali-asws came and he-asws was walking. He-saww said to him-asws: ‘O Abu Al-Hassan-asws! But you-asws should ride when I-saww ride and you-asws walk when I-saww walk, and sit when I-saww sit, unless there happens to be regarding a legal punishment of Allah-azwj, there being inevitable for you-asws from the standing and the sitting during it.
وَ مَا أَكْرَمَنِيَ اللَّهُ بِكَرَامَةٍ إِلَّا وَ أَكْرَمَكَ بِمِثْلِهَا وَ خَصَّنِيَ اللَّهُ بِالنُّبُوَّةِ وَ الرِّسَالَةِ- وَ جَعَلَكَ وَلِيِّي فِي ذَلِكَ تَقُومُ فِي حُدُودِهِ وَ صَعْبِ أُمُورِهِ
And Allah-azwj did not Honour me-saww with any honour except and He-azwj Honoured you-asws with similar to it, and Allah-azwj Specialised me-saww with the Prophet-hood and the Message and Made you-asws my-saww guardian during that regarding His-azwj legal punishment and His-azwj difficult Commands.
وَ الَّذِي بَعَثَنِي بِالْحَقِّ نَبِيّاً مَا آمَنَ بِي مَنْ أَنْكَرَكَ وَ لَا أَقَرَّ بِي مَنْ جَحَدَكَ وَ لَا آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ مَنْ كَفَرَ بِكَ وَ إِنَّ فَضْلَكَ لَمِنْ فَضْلِي وَ إِنَّ فَضْلِي لِفَضْلِ اللَّهِ
By the One-azwj Who Sent me-saww with the Truth as a Prophet-saww! He has not believed in me-saww, one who denies you-asws, nor has he acknowledged with me-saww, one who rejects you-asws, nor has he believed in Allah-azwj, one who disbelieves in you-asws; and that your-asws superiority is from my-saww superiority, and my-saww superiority is a Grace of Allah-azwj.
وَ هُوَ قَوْلُ رَبِّي عَزَّ وَ جَلَ قُلْ بِفَضْلِ اللَّهِ وَ بِرَحْمَتِهِ فَبِذلِكَ فَلْيَفْرَحُوا هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا يَجْمَعُونَ فَفَضْلُ اللَّهِ نُبُوَّةُ نَبِيِّكُمْ وَ رَحْمَتُهُ وَلَايَةُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع
And it is the Word of my-saww Lord-azwj Mighty and Majestic: Say: ‘By the Grace of Allah and by His Mercy – so it is by that, let them be rejoicing. It is better than what they are amassing [10:58]. The Grace of Allah-azwj is the Prophet-hood of your Prophet-saww, and His-azwj Mercy is Wilayah of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws.
فَبِذلِكَ قَالَ بِالنُّبُوَّةِ وَ الْوَلَايَةِ فَلْيَفْرَحُوا يَعْنِي الشِّيعَةَ هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا يَجْمَعُونَ يَعْنِي مُخَالِفِيهِمْ مِنَ الْأَهْلِ وَ الْمَالِ وَ الْوَلَدِ فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا
So it is by that, – he-asws said, ‘With the Prophet-hood and the Wilayah, let them be rejoicing. – meaning the Shias, It is better than what they are amassing [10:58] – meaning their opponents, from the families, and the wealth, and the children in the house of the world.
وَ اللَّهِ يَا عَلِيُّ مَا خُلِقْتَ إِلَّا لِيُعْبَدَ بِكَ وَ لِتُعْرَفَ بِكَ مَعَالِمُ الدِّينِ وَ يُصْلَحَ بِكَ دَارِسُ السَّبِيلِ وَ لَقَدْ ضَلَّ مَنْ ضَلَّ عَنْكَ وَ لَنْ يَهْتَدِيَ إِلَى اللَّهِ مَنْ لَمْ يَهْتَدِ إِلَيْكَ وَ إِلَى وَلَايَتِكَ وَ هُوَ قَوْلُ رَبِّي عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ إِنِّي لَغَفَّارٌ لِمَنْ تابَ وَ آمَنَ وَ عَمِلَ صالِحاً ثُمَّ اهْتَدى يَعْنِي إِلَى وَلَايَتِكَ
By Allah-azwj, O Ali-asws! You-asws have not been Created except for there to be worship through you-asws, and for the information of the Religion be recognised through you-asws, and the teachings of the way be corrected through you-asws, and he has strayed, the one who strays away from you-asws, and he will never be guided to Allah-azwj, the one does not get guided to you-asws and to your-asws Wilayah, and it is the Word of my-saww Lord-azwj Mighty and Majestic: And I am Forgiving to the one who repents and believes and does righteous deeds, then (follows) righteous Guidance [20:82] – meaning to your-asws Wilayah.
وَ لَقَدْ أَمَرَنِي رَبِّي تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى أَنْ أَفْتَرِضَ مِنْ حَقِّكَ مَا أَفْتَرَضَ مِنْ حَقِّي وَ إِنَّ حَقَّكَ لَمَفْرُوضٌ عَلَى مَنْ آمَنَ بِي وَ لَوْلَاكَ لَمْ يُعْرَفْ عَدُوُّ اللَّهِ وَ مَنْ لَمْ يَلْقَهُ بِوَلَايَتِكَ لَمْ يَلْقَهُ بِشَيْءٍ
And my Lord-azwj Blessed and Exalted has Commanded me-saww that I-saww obligate from your-asws rights what I-saww has obligated from my-saww rights, and that your-asws rights are obligatory upon the one who believes in me-saww; and had it not been for you-asws, enemies of Allah-azwj would not be recognised, and one who does not meet Him-azwj being your-asws Wilayah would not meet Him-azwj with anything.
وَ لَقَدْ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَيَ يا أَيُّهَا الرَّسُولُ بَلِّغْ ما أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْكَ مِنْ رَبِّكَ يَعْنِي فِي وَلَايَتِكَ يَا عَلِيُ وَ إِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ فَما بَلَّغْتَ رِسالَتَهُ وَ لَوْ لَمْ أُبَلِّغْ مَا أُمِرْتُ بِهِ مِنْ وَلَايَتِكَ لَحَبِطَ عَمَلِي وَ مَنْ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِغَيْرِ وَلَايَتِكَ فَقَدْ حَبِطَ عَمَلُهُ وَ غَدَا سُحْقاً لَهُ وَ مَا أَقُولُ إِلَّا قَوْلَ رَبِّي تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى وَ إِنَّ الَّذِي أَقُولُ لَمِنَ اللَّهِ أَنْزَلَهُ فِيكَ.
And Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Revealed to me-saww: O you Rasool! Deliver what has been Revealed unto you from your Lord; – meaning regarding your-asws Wilayah, O Ali-asws, and if you don’t do so, then you have not delivered His Message, [5:67], and if I-saww do not deliver what I-saww am Commanded with of your-asws Wilayah, my-saww deeds would be Confiscated, and one who meets Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic without your-asws Wilayah, so his deeds would be Confiscated, there would be remoteness for him, and I-saww am not saying except the Word of myLord-azwj Blessed and Exalted, and that which I-saww am saying is from what Allah-azwj Revealed regarding you-asws’’.[181]
51- وَ مِنْ هَذَا مَا ذَكَرَهُ فِي تَفْسِيرِ الْعَسْكَرِيِّ ع قَالَ الْإِمَامُ ع قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فَضْلُ اللَّهِ الْعِلْمُ بِتَأْوِيلِهِ وَ تَوْفِيقُهُ لِمُوَالاةِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ الطَّيِّبِينَ وَ مُعَادَاةُ أَعْدَائِهِمْ وَ كَيْفَ لَا يَكُونُ ذَلِكَ خَيْراً مِمَّا يَجْمَعُونَ وَ هُوَ ثَمَنُ الْجَنَّةِ وَ يَسْتَحِقُّ بِهِ الْكَوْنُ بِحَضْرَةِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ الطَّيِّبِينَ الَّذِي هُوَ أَفْضَلُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ لِأَنَّ مُحَمَّداً وَ آلَهُ أَشْرَفُ زِينَةِ الْجَنَّةِ.
And from this is what I mentioned in the Tafseer of Al-Askari-asws – The Imam-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Grace of Allah-azwj is the knowledge with its interpretation and its inclination to the Wilayah of Muhammad-saww and his-saww goodly Progeny-asws, and enmity to their-asws enemies, and how can that not happen to be better than what they are amassing, and it is from the price of the Paradise, and being in the presence of Muhammad-saww and his-saww goodly Progeny-asws, which is superior than the Paradise itself because Muhammad-asws and his-saww Progeny-asws are the noblest adornment of the Paradise’’.[182]

(The books) ‘Kunz Jamie Al Fawaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat Al Zaahira’ –
‘It has come in the interpretation of People-asws of the Household regarding the esoteric of a Hadeeth of Ahmad Bin Ibrahim, from them-asws: ‘And you should be making your livelihood, [56:82], meaning give thanks for the Favour which Allah-azwj has Given to you as sustenance, and that is having Sent to you Muhammad-saww and the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, (instead) you are belying [56:82] – the successorship.
فَلَوْ لا إِذا بَلَغَتِ الْحُلْقُومَ وَ أَنْتُمْ حِينَئِذٍ تَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى وَصِيِّهِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ يُبَشَّرُ وَلِيُّهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ وَ عَدُوُّهُ بِالنَّارِ وَ نَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْكُمْ يَعْنِي أَقْرَبُ إِلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْكُمْ وَ لكِنْ لا تُبْصِرُونَ أَيْ لَا تَعْرِفُونَ.
So why don’t you, when it reaches the throats [56:83] And at that time you are looking on [56:84] – at his-saww successor-asws Amir-Al-Momineen-asws giving glad tidings to his-asws friends of the Paradise, and his-asws enemies of the Fire, And We are nearer to him than you are, but you are not seeing [56:85] – meaning near to Amir-Al-Momineen-asws than you are, but you are not seeing – meaning you are not recognising.’’[185]

CHAPTER 30 – THEY-asws ARE THE STARS, AND THE DIRECTIONAL SIGNS, AND IN IT ARE COME OF THE STRANGE INTERPRETATIONS REGARDING THEM-asws AND REGARDING THEIR-asws ENEMIES
الآيات النحل وَ عَلاماتٍ وَ بِالنَّجْمِ هُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ
The Verse – (Surah) Al Nahl: And directional signs, and by the star they are being guided [16:16]
Notes: –
وَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع نَحْنُ الْعَلَامَاتُ وَ النَّجْمُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص.
And Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘We-asws are the directional signs and the star(s) of Rasool-Allah-saww’.
قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص إِنَّ اللَّهَ جَعَلَ النُّجُومَ أَمَاناً لِأَهْلِ السَّمَاءِ وَ جَعَلَ أَهْلَ بَيْتِي أَمَاناً لِأَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ.
The Prophet-saww said: ‘Allah-azwj Made the start as a security for the inhabitants of the sky, and Made People-asws of my-saww Household are a security for inhabitants of the earth’.

Tafseer Al Qummi – My father, from Al Husayn Bin Khalid,
‘From Abu Al-Hassan Al-Reza-asws regarding His-azwj Words: The Beneficent [55:1] Taught the Quran [55:2]. He-asws said: ‘Allah-azwj Taught Muhammad-saww the Quran’.
قُلْتُ خَلَقَ الْإِنْسانَ قَالَ ذَاكَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع قُلْتُ عَلَّمَهُ الْبَيانَ قَالَ عَلَّمَهُ بَيَانَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ يَحْتَاجُ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ
I said, ‘(What about): Created the human being [55:3] Taught him the clarification [55:4]?’ He-asws said: ‘That is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. He-azwj Taught him-asws the clarification of everything from what the people would need from him-asws.’
قُلْتُ الشَّمْسُ وَ الْقَمَرُ بِحُسْبانٍ قَالَ هُمَا يُعَذَّبَانِ بِعَذَابِ اللَّهِ قُلْتُ الشَّمْسُ وَ الْقَمَرُ يُعَذَّبَانِ
I (the narrator) said, ‘(What about): [55:5] The sun and the moon follow a Reckoning?’ He-asws said: ‘They would both be Punished.’ I said, ‘The sun and the moon would be Punished?’
قَالَ سَأَلْتَ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَأَتْقِنْهُ إِنَ الشَّمْسَ وَ الْقَمَرَ آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ يَجْرِيَانِ بِأَمْرِهِ مُطِيعَانِ لَهُ ضَوْؤُهُمَا مِنْ نُورِ عَرْشِهِ وَ حَرُّهُمَا مِنْ حَرِّ جَهَنَّمَ
He-asws said: ‘If you ask about something, then perfect it. Surely, the sun and the moon are two Signs from the Signs of Allah, flowing by His-azwj Command, obedient to Him-azwj. Their illumination is from the Light of His-azwj Throne and their heat is from heat of Hell.
فَإِذَا كَانَتِ الْقِيَامَةُ عَادَ إِلَى الْعَرْشِ نُورُهُمَا وَ عَادَ إِلَى النَّارِ حَرُّهُمَا فَلَا تَكُونُ شَمْسٌ وَ لَا قَمَرٌ وَ إِنَّمَا عَنَاهُمَا لَعَنَهُمَا اللَّهُ أَ وَ لَيْسَ قَدْ رَوَى النَّاسُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص قَالَ إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَ الْقَمَرَ نُورَانِ فِي النَّارِ قُلْتُ بَلَى
So when it would be the Day of Judgment, both their lights would return to the Throne, and their heat would return to the Fire. Thus, they would neither happen to be a sun nor a moon. And rather, what is meant are those two (Abu Bakr and Umar), Allah-azwj has Cursed them both. Aren’t the people reporting that Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The sun and the moon are two lights in the Fire?’ I said, ‘Yes’.
قَالَ أَ مَا سَمِعْتَ قَوْلَ النَّاسِ فُلَانٌ وَ فُلَانٌ شَمْسُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ وَ نُورُهُمَا فَهُمَا فِي النَّارِ وَ اللَّهِ مَا عَنَى غَيْرَهُمَا
He-asws said: ‘And have you not heard the words of the people, ‘So and so, and so and so (Abu Bakr and Umar) are two suns of this community and their light?’ So these two are in the Fire, and Allah-azwj has not Meant (anything else) other than these two’
قُلْتُ وَ النَّجْمُ وَ الشَّجَرُ يَسْجُدانِ
I said, ‘(What about): And the star and the tree both perform Sajdahs [55:6]?’
قَالَ النَّجْمُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ قَدْ سَمَّاهُ اللَّهُ فِي غَيْرِ مَوْضِعٍ فَقَالَ وَ النَّجْمِ إِذا هَوى وَ قَالَ وَ عَلاماتٍ وَ بِالنَّجْمِ هُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ فَالْعَلَامَاتُ الْأَوْصِيَاءُ وَ النَّجْمُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص
He-asws (Abu Al-Hassan Al-Reza-asws) said: ‘The star [55:6], is Rasool-Allah-saww, and Allah-azwj has Named him-saww so in other places, so He-azwj Said: (I Swear) by the star when it swoops down [53:1]. And He-azwj Said: And directional signs, and by the star they are being guided [16:16] – so the directional signs are the successors-asws and the star is Rasool-Allah-saww’.
قُلْتُ يَسْجُدانِ قَالَ يَعْبُدَانِ
I said, ‘both performing Sajdahs [55:6]?’ He-asws said: ‘They are both worshipping (Allah-azwj)’.
وَ قَوْلُهُ وَ السَّماءَ رَفَعَها وَ وَضَعَ الْمِيزانَ
I said, ‘(What about): And the sky, He Elevated it, and He Placed the Scale [55:7]?’
قَالَ السَّمَاءُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص رَفَعَهُ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ وَ الْمِيزَانُ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع نَصَبَهُ لِخَلْقِهِ
He-asws said: ‘The sky is Rasool-Allah-saww. Allah-azwj Elevated him-saww to Him-azwj, and the Scale is Amir-Al-Momineen-asws, having Nominated him-asws for His-azwj creatures.’
قُلْتُ أَلَّا تَطْغَوْا فِي الْمِيزانِ
I said, ‘(What about): Indeed! You must not transgress regarding the Scale [55:8]?’
قَالَ لَا تَعْصُوا الْإِمَامَ
He-asws said: ‘Do not disobey the Imam-asws.’
قُلْتُ وَ أَقِيمُوا الْوَزْنَ بِالْقِسْطِ
I said, ‘(What about): And establish the weight with the fairness [55:9]?’
أَقِيمُوا الْإِمَامَ الْعَدْلَ
(He-asws said): ‘Deal with the Imam-asws by justice.’
قُلْتُ وَ لا تُخْسِرُوا الْمِيزانَ قَالَ وَ لَا تَبْخَسُوا الْإِمَامَ حَقَّهُ وَ لَا تَظْلِمُوهُ
I said, ‘(What about): ‘and do not be deficient regarding the Scale [55:9]?’ He-asws said: ‘Do not be deficient with the Imam-asws of his-asws rights, and do not oppress him-asws’.
وَ قَوْلُهُ وَ الْأَرْضَ وَضَعَها لِلْأَنامِ قَالَ لِلنَّاسِ
And His-azwj Words: And the earth, He Placed it for the creatures [55:10], he-asws said: ‘For the people.’

Therein are fruits, and the palm trees with the sheathed clusters [55:11], he-asws said: ‘Fruit of the palm tree grows in the season, then emerges from it.’
قَوْلُهُ وَ الْحَبُّ ذُو الْعَصْفِ وَ الرَّيْحانُ قَالَ الْحَبُّ الْحِنْطَةُ وَ الشَّعِيرُ وَ الْحُبُوبُ وَ الْعَصْفُ التِّبْنُ وَ الرَّيْحَانُ مَا يُؤْكَلُ مِنْهُ
And the Words of the Exalted: And the grain with the husk and the fragrance [55:12], he-asws said: ‘The grain of the wheat, and the barley, and the grain, and the fig, and the basil – what is eaten from it.

What is reported by Aban Bin Taghlub,
‘From Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws having said: ‘We are the rope of Allah-azwj which Allah-azwj Said: And hold firmly with the Rope of Allah altogether and do not be disunited [3:103]’.
وَ الَّذِي يُؤَيِّدُهُ مَا رَوَاهُ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي قَدْ تَرَكْتُ فِيكُمْ حَبْلَيْنِ إِنْ أَخَذْتُمْ بِهِمَا لَنْ تَضِلُّوا بَعْدِي أَحَدُهُمَا أَكْبَرُ مِنَ الْآخَرِ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ حَبْلٌ مَمْدُودٌ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ وَ عِتْرَتِي أَهْلُ بَيْتِي أَلَا وَ إِنَّهُمَا لَنْ يَفْتَرِقَا حَتَّى يَرِدَا عَلَيَّ الْحَوْضَ.
And that which supports it is what is reported by Abu Saeed Al-Khudry, from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘O you people! I-saww am leaving behind among you all two ropes. If you were to grab hold of these two you will never stray after me-saww. One of them I greater than the other. The Book of Allah-azwj is a rope extended from the sky to the earth, and my-saww family-asws, People-asws of the Household. Indeed! And these two will never separate until they return to me-saww at the Fountain’’.

‘Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘The ‘wisdom’ is the recognition (of the Imam-asws), and the pondering in the Religion. So the one from you who ponders, then he is wise, and there is none from the Momineen who are dying (whose death is) more beloved to Iblees-la than a pondering one’’.[230]

Tafseer Al Qummi – Ahmad Bin Muhammad Al Shaybani, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Muawiya, from Muhammad Bin Suleyman, from Abdullah Bin Muhammad Al Tafleesi, from Al Hassan Bin Mahboub, from Salih Bin Razeyn, from Shihab Bin Abd Rabbih who said,
‘I heard Al-Sadiq-asws saying: ‘O Shihab! We-asws are the tree of Prophet-hood, and mine of the Message, and interchange of the Angels, and we-asws are a Pact of Allah-azwj, and His-azwj Guarantee, and we-asws are Cordiality of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Divine Authorities.
كُنَّا أَنْوَارَ صُفُوفٍ حَوْلَ الْعَرْشِ نُسَبِّحُ فَيُسَبِّحُ أَهْلُ السَّمَاءِ بِتَسْبِيحِنَا إِلَى أَنْ هَبَطْنَا إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَسَبَّحْنَا فَسَبَّحَ أَهْلُ الْأَرْضِ بِتَسْبِيحِنَا وَ إِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الصَّافُّونَ وَ إِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْمُسَبِّحُونَ
We-asws were Lights (Noors) arranged in rows around the Throne. We-asws glorified (Allah-azwj), so the people of the skies glorified with our-asws glorification, up to (the time) we-asws descended to the earth. We-asws glorified, so the people of the earth glorified with our-asws glorification: And indeed we are the ones arranged in rows [37:165] And indeed we were the ones Glorifying’ [37:166].

So, the one who was loyal with our-asws pact so he has been loyal with Covenant of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, and His Pact, and one who breaks our-asws pact, so he has broken a Pact of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic and His-azwj Covenant’’.[232]

(The books) ‘Kunz Jamie Al Fawaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat Al Zaahira’ – Muhammad Bin Al Abbas, raising it to Muhammad Bin Ziyad who said,
‘Ibn Mihran asked Abdullah Bin Al-Abbas about interpretation of His-azwj Words of the Exalted: And indeed we are the ones arranged in rows [37:165] And indeed we were the ones Glorifying’ [37:166]. Ibn Abbas said, ‘We were in the presence of Rasool-Allah-saww and Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws came. When the Prophet-saww saw him-asws, he-saww smiled in his-asws face and said: ‘Welcome with the one-asws whom Allah-azwj Created before Adam-as by four thousand years’.
فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَ كَانَ الِابْنُ قَبْلَ الْأَبِ قَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى خَلَقَنِي وَ خَلَقَ عَلِيّاً ع قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ آدَمَ بِهَذِهِ الْمُدَّةِ خَلَقَ نُوراً فَقَسَمَهُ نِصْفَيْنِ فَخَلَقَنِي مِنْ نِصْفِهِ وَ خَلَقَ عَلِيّاً ع مِنَ النِّصْفِ الْآخَرِ قَبْلَ الْأَشْيَاءِ كُلِّهَا
I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Can the son be before the father?’ He-saww Yes. Allah-azwj the Exalted Created me-saww and Created Ali-asws before He-azwj Created Adam-as. In this period He-azwj Created Noor (Light) and Divided it into two halves. He-azwj Created me-saww from its half and Created Ali-asws from the other half before the things, all of them.
ثُمَّ خَلَقَ الْأَشْيَاءَ فَكَانَتْ مُظْلِمَةً فَنُورُهَا مِنْ نُورِي وَ نُورِ عَلِيٍّ ع ثُمَّ جَعَلَنَا عَنْ يَمِينِ الْعَرْشِ
Then He-azwj Created the things. There used to be darkness, and it was illuminated by my-saww light and light of Ali-asws. Then we-asws were Made to be on the right of the Throne.
ثُمَّ خَلَقَ الْمَلَائِكَةَ فَسَبَّحْنَا فَسَبَّحَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَ هَلَّلْنَا فَهَلَّلَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَ كَبَّرْنَا فَكَبَّرَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ فَكَانَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ تَعْلِيمِي وَ تَعْلِيمِ عَلِيٍّ ع
Then He-azwj Created the Angels. We-asws glorified (Allah-azwj), so the Angel glorified, and we-asws extolled (Holiness of Allah-azwj), so the Angel extolled, and we-asws exclaimed Greatness (of Allah-azwj), so the Angels extolled the Greatness. That was from my-saww teaching and the teaching of Ali-asws.
وَ كَانَ ذَلِكَ فِي عِلْمِ اللَّهِ السَّابِقِ أَنْ لَا يَدْخُلَ النَّارَ مُحِبٌّ لِي وَ لِعَلِيٍّ ع وَ لَا يَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ مُبْغِضٌ لِي وَ لِعَلِيٍّ
And that was in the preceding Knowledge of Allah-azwj that no one will enter the Fire except one who loves me-saww and Ali-asws, nor will he enter the Paradise, the one who hates me-saww and Ali-asws.
أَلَا وَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ خَلَقَ مَلَائِكَةً بِأَيْدِيهِمْ أَبَارِيقُ اللُّجَيْنِ مَمْلُوَّةً مِنْ مَاءِ الْحَيَاةِ مِنَ الْفِرْدَوْسِ فَمَا أَحَدٌ مِنْ شِيعَةِ عَلِيٍّ ع إِلَّا وَ هُوَ طَاهِرُ الْوَالِدَيْنِ تَقِيٌّ نَقِيٌّ مُؤْمِنٌ بِاللَّهِ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَحَدُهُمْ أَنْ يُوَاقِعَ أَهْلَهُ جَاءَ مَلَكٌ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ الَّذِينَ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ أَبَارِيقُ مَاءِ الْجَنَّةِ فَيَطْرَحُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْمَاءِ فِي الْآنِيَةِ الَّتِي يَشْرَبُ مِنْهَا فَيَشْرَبُهُ
Indeed! Allah-azwj Created Angels having silver pitchers filled from water of life from (Garden of) Al-Firdows. So, there is none from a Shia of Ali-asws except and he is of clean parents, pious, pure, a believer in Allah-azwj. When one of them wants to sleep with his wife, an Angel comes, from the Angels those having pitchers with them filled with water of the Paradise, and drops that water into the utensil which he (Momin) drinks from, and he drinks from it.
فَبِذَلِكَ الْمَاءِ يَنْبُتُ الْإِيمَانُ فِي قَلْبِهِ كَمَا يَنْبُتُ الزَّرْعُ فَهُمْ عَلَى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِمْ وَ مِنْ نَبِيِّهِمْ وَ مِنْ وَصِيِّهِ عَلِيٍّ ع وَ مِنِ ابْنَتِيَ الزَّهْرَاءِ ثُمَّ الْحَسَنِ ثُمَّ الْحُسَيْنِ ثُمَّ الْأَئِمَّةِ مِنْ وُلْدِ الْحُسَيْنِ
So, by that water is grown the Eman in his heart, just as the plant tends to grow. Thus, they are upon a clear evidence from their Lord-azwj and from their Prophet-saww and from his-saww successor-asws, and from my-saww daughter-asws Al-Zahra-asws, then Al-Hassan-asws, then Al-Husayn-asws, then the Imams-asws from sons-asws of Al-Husayn-asws’.
فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ مَنْ هُمُ الْأَئِمَّةُ قَالَ أَحَدَ عَشَرَ مِنِّي وَ أَبُوهُمْ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع
I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! And who are the Imams-asws?’ He-saww said: ‘Eleven from me-saww, and their-asws father is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ مَحَبَّةَ عَلِيٍّ وَ الْإِيمَانَ بِهِ سَبَبَيْنِ يَعْنِي سَبَباً لِدُخُولِ الْجَنَّةِ وَ سَبَباً لِلنَّجَاةِ مِنَ النَّارِ.
Then the Prophet-saww said: ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Made love of Ali-asws and the belief in him-asws as two causes, meaning a cause for entering the Paradise, and a cause for the salvation from the Fire’’.[234]

Your Mercy and Knowledge Extends to all things, therefore Forgive those who repent – from the wilayah of so and so, and so and so, and clan of Umayya, and follow Your Way, – i.e. Wilayah of a Guardian-asws of Allah-azwj, and Save them from the Punishment of the Blazing Fire!’ [40:7].
رَبَّنا وَ أَدْخِلْهُمْ جَنَّاتِ عَدْنٍ الَّتِي وَعَدْتَهُمْ وَ مَنْ صَلَحَ مِنْ آبائِهِمْ وَ أَزْواجِهِمْ وَ ذُرِّيَّاتِهِمْ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ يَعْنِي مَنْ تَوَلَّى عَلِيّاً ع فَذَلِكَ صَلَاحُهُمْ
Our Lord! And enter them into the Gardens of Eden which You Promised them, and one who were righteous from their fathers and their wives and their offspring, surely You are the Mighty, the Wise [40:8] – meaning one who is in Wilayah of Ali-asws. That is (for) their righteous ones.
وَ قِهِمُ السَّيِّئاتِ وَ مَنْ تَقِ السَّيِّئاتِ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَقَدْ رَحِمْتَهُ يَعْنِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَ ذلِكَ هُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ لِمَنْ نَجَّاهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ وَلَايَةِ فُلَانٍ وَ فُلَانٍ
And Save them from evil deeds, and the one You Save from the evil deeds on this Day, so You have been Merciful to him, – meaning on Day of Qiyamah, and that, it is the mighty success [40:9] – for the one Allah-azwj Rescues from the wilayah of so and so, and so and so’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يَعْنِي بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ يُنادَوْنَ لَمَقْتُ اللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ مِنْ مَقْتِكُمْ أَنْفُسَكُمْ إِذْ تُدْعَوْنَ إِلَى الْإِيمانِ يَعْنِي إِلَى وَلَايَةِ عَلِيٍّ ع فَتَكْفُرُونَ.
Then He-azwj Said: Surely, those who commit Kufr – meaning clan of Umayya, would be Called out to: ‘Your despising Allah when you were called to the Eman – meaning to Wilayah of Ali-asws, is greater than your despising yourselves, therefore you committed Kufr [40:10]’’.[235] (Not a Hadeeth)

And it is reported by Al Hassan Bin Mahboub, from Sandan, from Ibn Farqad who said,
‘Abu Abdullah-asws: ‘Recite the Chapter ‘Al-Fajr’ in your Obligatory as well as in your optional (Salats), for it is a Chapter of Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws, and wish in it, Allah-azwj would be Merciful to you’.
فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو أُسَامَةَ وَ كَانَ حَاضِرَ الْمَجْلِسِ كَيْفَ صَارَتْ هَذِهِ السُّورَةُ لِلْحُسَيْنِ ع خَاصَّةً
Abu Asama said to him-asws, and he was present in the gathering: ‘How did this Surah come to be for Al-Husayn-asws in particular?’
فَقَالَ أَ لَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى يا أَيَّتُهَا النَّفْسُ الْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ ارْجِعِي إِلى رَبِّكِ راضِيَةً مَرْضِيَّةً فَادْخُلِي فِي عِبادِي وَ ادْخُلِي جَنَّتِي

But rather, He-azwj Means Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws, for he-asws was being well-pleased (with Him), He being well-pleased (with him), and his-asws companions from the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww are those who will be pleased with Allah-azwj on the Day of Judgement, and He-azwj being Pleased with them-asws.

And it is reported by Al Sadouq, by his chain from Sadeyr who said,
‘I said to Abu Abdullah-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! Does the Momin dislike the capture of his soul?’
قَالَ لَا إِذَا أَتَاهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ لِقَبْضِ رُوحِهِ جَزِعَ لِذَلِكَ فَيَقُولُ لَهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ يَا وَلِيَّ اللَّهِ لَا تَجْزَعْ فَوَ الَّذِي بَعَثَ مُحَمَّداً بِالْحَقِّ لَأَنَا أَبَرُّ بِكَ وَ أَشْفَقُ عَلَيْكَ مِنَ الْوَالِدِ الْبَرِّ الرَّحِيمِ بِوَلَدِهِ افْتَحْ عَيْنَيْكَ وَ انْظُرْ
He-asws said: ‘No. By Allah-azwj, when the Angel of death comes over to him in order to capture his soul, he panics during that. So the Angel of death is saying to him: ‘O friend of Allah-azwj, do not panic! By the One-azwj Who Send Muhammad-saww, I will be more good to you and more kind upon you than the parent, merciful with his child!’
قَالَ فَيَتَمَثَّلُ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ فَاطِمَةُ وَ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ وَ الْأَئِمَّةُ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ فَيَقُولُ هَؤُلَاءِ رُفَقَاؤُكَ فَيَفْتَحُ عَيْنَيْهِ وَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمْ
He-asws said: ‘Then, Rasool-Allah-saww and Amir Al-Momineen-asws and (Syeda) Fatima-asws and Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws and the Imams-asws are resembled for him, and he (Angel of death) says, ‘They-asws are your friends’. So, he opens his eyes and looks at them-asws.
ثُمَّ تُنَادَى نَفْسُهُ يا أَيَّتُهَا النَّفْسُ الْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ إِلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ ع ارْجِعِي إِلى رَبِّكِ راضِيَةً بِالْوَلَايَةِ مَرْضِيَّةً بِالثَّوَابِ فَادْخُلِي فِي عِبادِي يَعْنِي محمد [مُحَمَّداً] وَ أَهْلَ بَيْتِهِ وَ ادْخُلِي جَنَّتِي فَمَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ مِنِ انْسِلَالِ رُوحِهِ وَ اللُّحُوقِ بِالْمُنَادِي.
Then a Caller Calls out to his soul, ‘O you the contented soul! [89:27], (contented) to Muhammad-saww and the People-asws of his-saww Household, Return to your Lord, being well-pleased [89:28] with the Wilayah, He being Well-Pleased [89:28] with the (Allocation of the) Rewards. So enter (to be) among My servants [89:29], Meaning Muhammad-saww and the People-asws of his-saww Household, And enter into My Garden [89:30]’. Thus, there would be nothing more beloved to him than the extraction of his soul, and be attached with the Caller’’.[248]

‘From Abu Zarr-ra regarding Words of Mighty and Majestic: He Let loose the two seas to meet [55:19]. He said, ‘Ali-asws and (Syeda) Fatima-asws; There come forth from them the pearls and the rubies [55:22]. He said,‘Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws.

So who has been seen to be like these four – Ali-asws, and (Syeda) Fatima-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws, and Al-Husayn-asws? None will love them-asws except a Momin, nor hate them-asws except a Kafir, therefore be loving People-asws of the Household and do not be Kafirs with hatred of People-asws of the Household, for you will be flung into the Fire’’. (Not a Hadeeth)
وَ قَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ سَلْمَانَ الْفَارِسِيِّ وَ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ وَ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِ بِأَنَّ الْبَحْرَيْنِ عَلِيٌّ وَ فَاطِمَةُ ع بَيْنَهُمَا بَرْزَخٌ مُحَمَّدٌ ص يَخْرُجُ مِنْهُمَا اللُّؤْلُؤُ وَ الْمَرْجانُ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع وَ لَا غَرْوَ أَنْ يَكُونَا بَحْرَيْنِ لِسَعَةِ فَضْلِهِمَا وَ كَثْرَةِ خَيْرِهِمَا فَإِنَّ الْبَحْرَ إِنَّمَا يُسَمَّى بَحْراً لِسَعَتِهِ.
And it has been reported from Salman Al Farsi-ra and Saeed Bin Jubeyr, and Sufyan Al Sowry that the two seas are Ali-asws and Fatima-asws, between them is a barrier of Muhammad-saww. There come forth from them the pearls and the rubies [55:22]. He said,‘Al Hassan-asws and Al Husayn-asws, and it is not surprising that they-asws happen to be two seas due to the vastness and abundance of their-asws merits, for the sea has rather been named as ‘sea’ due to its vastness’’.[255] (Not a Hadeeth)

(The book) ‘Al Khisal’ – My father, from Saeed Al Asbahany, from Al Minqay, from Yahya Bin Saeed Al Qattan who said,
‘I heard Abu Abdullah-asws saying: ‘He Let loose the two seas to meet [55:19]. He-asws said: ‘Ali-asws and (Syeda) Fatima-asws are two seas of knowledge, deep, one of them does not violate upon his counterpart; There come forth from them the pearls and the rubies [55:22] – ‘Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws’’.[256]

(The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub – Abu Muawiya Al Zareyr, from Al Amsh Bin Abu Salih, from Ibn Abbas,
‘(Syeda) Fatima-asws cried of hunger and lack of clothes, so the Prophet-saww said: ‘Be content O Fatima-asws, with your-asws husband, for by Allah-azwj he-asws is a chief in the world and a chief in the Hereafter and a corrector between the two’.
فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ مَرَجَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ يَلْتَقِيانِ يَقُولُ أَنَا اللَّهُ أَرْسَلْتُ الْبَحْرَيْنِ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع بَحْرَ الْعِلْمِ وَ فَاطِمَةَ بَحْرَ النُّبُوَّةِ يَلْتَقِيانِ يَتَّصِلَانِ أَنَا اللَّهُ أَوْقَعْتُ الْوُصْلَةَ بَيْنَهُمَا
Allah-azwj Revealed: He Let loose the two seas to meet [55:19], Saying: “I-azwj am Allah-azwj. I-azwj Sent the two seas. Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws I am a sea of knowledge and (Syeda) Fatima-asws is a sea of Prophet-hood, to meet [55:19], connecting. I-azwj am Allah-azwj! I-azwj Raised the connection between the two!”

Then He-azwj Said: Between them is a barrier which they do not violate [55:20] – Rasool-Allah-azwj being a preventer, forbidding Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws that he-asws goes out for the sake of the world, and forbidding (Syeda) Fatima-asws to dispute with her-asws husband-asws for the sake of the world.
فَبِأَيِّ آلاءِ رَبِّكُما يَا مَعْشَرَ الْجِنِّ وَ الْإِنْسِ تُكَذِّبانِ بِوَلَايَةِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع أَوْ حُبِّ فَاطِمَةَ الزَّهْرَاءِ عَلَيْهَا السَّلَامُ فَاللُّؤْلُؤُ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْمَرْجَانُ الْحُسَيْنُ لِأَنَّ اللُّؤْلُؤَ الْكِبَارُ وَ الْمَرْجَانَ الصِّغَارُ.
So which of the Favours of your Lord – O community of Jinn and the humans, with you two belie? [55:13] the Wilayah of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, or love of Fatima Al-Zahra-asws. The pearl is Al-Hassan-asws and the coral is Al-Husayn-asws because the pearl is bigger and the coral I smaller’’.(Not a Hadeeth)[257]

His-azwj Words: an abandoned well, it is which cannot be quenched from, and it is the Imam-asws who is in hiding, so the knowledge cannot be attained from him-asws up to the time of the appearance.

Tafseer Al Qummi – My father, from Al Washa, from a man, from Hareez,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws regarding Words of Exalted: And your Lord Revealed unto the bee [16:68]. He-asws said: ‘We-asws are the ‘Bee’ which Allah-azwj Revealed to, “Take houses from the mountains -Commanded that we-asws should take Shias from the Arabs, and from the trees -and from the non-Arabs, and from what they are constructing [16:68] – from the slaves. There comes out from their bellies a drink of different colours [16:69]. Its colours, it is the Knowledge which comes out from us-asws to you all’’.[280]
2- كنز، كنز جامع الفوائد و تأويل الآيات الظاهرة رَوَى الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الدَّيْلَمِيُّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ رِجَالِهِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ أَوْحى رَبُّكَ إِلَى النَّحْلِ أَنِ اتَّخِذِي مِنَ الْجِبالِ بُيُوتاً وَ مِنَ الشَّجَرِ وَ مِمَّا يَعْرِشُونَ قَالَ مَا بَلَغَ مِنَ النَّحْلِ أَنْ يُوحَى إِلَيْهَا بَلْ فِينَا نَزَلَتْ فَنَحْنُ النَّحْلُ وَ نَحْنُ الْمُقِيمُونَ لِلَّهِ فِي أَرْضِهِ بِأَمْرِهِ وَ الْجِبَالُ شِيعَتُنَا وَ الشَّجَرُ النِّسَاءُ الْمُؤْمِنَاتُ.
(The books) ‘Jamie Al Fawaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat Al Zaahira’ – It is reported by Al Hasan Bin Abu Al Hassan Al Daylami, by his chain from his men, from Abu Baseer,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws regarding His-azwj Words Mighty and Majestic: And your Lord Revealed unto the bee saying: “Take houses from the mountains and from the trees and from what they are constructing [16:68]. He-asws said: ‘What can reach with the bee if it is Revealed to it? But, it was Revealed regarding us-asws, and we-asws are the ‘bee’, and we-asws are the establishers for Allah-azwj in His-azwj earth by His-azwj Command. And the mountains are our-asws Shias, and the trees are the believing women (Mominaat)’’.[281]

(This is a comment)[282]
4- وَ يُؤَيِّدُ الْوَجْهَ الْأَوَّلَ مَا رَوَاهُ الْكُلَيْنِيُّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: اتَّقُوا عَلَى دِينِكُمْ وَ احْجُبُوهُ بِالتَّقِيَّةِ فَإِنَّهُ لَا إِيمَانَ لِمَنْ لَا تَقِيَّةَ لَهُ
And the first aspect is supported by what is reported by Al Kulayni, by his chain from Ibn Abu Yafour,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Fear upon your Religion and veil it with the Taqiyyah (dissimulation), for there is no Eman for the one who has no Taqiyyah for him.
إِنَّمَا أَنْتُمْ فِي النَّاسِ كَالنَّحْلِ فِي الطَّيْرِ لَوْ أَنَّ الطَّيْرَ يَعْلَمُ مَا فِي أَجْوَافِ النَّحْلِ مَا بَقِيَ مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ إِلَّا أَكَلَتْهُ وَ لَوْ أَنَّ النَّاسَ عَلِمُوا مَا فِي أَجْوَافِكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ تُحِبُّونَّا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتَ لَأَكَلُوكُمْ بِأَلْسِنَتِهِمْ وَ لَنَحَلُوكُمْ فِي السِّرِّ وَ الْعَلَانِيَةِ رَحِمَ اللَّهُ عَبْداً مِنْكُمْ كَانَ عَلَى وَلَايَتِنَا.
But rather, you (Shias) are among the people like the bee is among the birds. If the birds were to know what is in the interior of the bees, nothing would remain from it except it would be eaten up, and if the people were to know what is in your interiors, that you love us-asws the People-asws of the Household, they would devour you all with their tongues and impersonate you all in the private and in the open. May Allah-azwj have Mercy on a servant from you who happens to be upon our-asws Wilayah’’.[283]
5- شي، تفسير العياشي عَنْ مَسْعَدَةَ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى وَ أَوْحى رَبُّكَ إِلَى النَّحْلِ أَنِ اتَّخِذِي مِنَ الْجِبالِ بُيُوتاً وَ مِنَ الشَّجَرِ وَ مِمَّا يَعْرِشُونَ إِنَّ فِي ذلِكَ لَآياتٍ لِقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ
Tafseer Al Ayyashi – From Mas’ada Bin Sadaqa,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws regarding Words of the Exalted: And your Lord Revealed unto the bee saying: “Take houses from the mountains and from the trees and from what they are constructing [16:68] Surely, in that there is a Sign for a thinking people” [16:69].
فَالنَّحْلُ الْأَئِمَّةُ وَ الْجِبَالُ الْعَرَبُ وَ الشَّجَرُ الْمَوَالِي عَتَاقَةً وَ مِمَّا يَعْرِشُونَ يَعْنِي الْأَوْلَادَ وَ الْعَبِيدَ مِمَّنْ لَمْ يُعْتَقْ وَ هُوَ يَتَوَلَّى اللَّهَ وَ رَسُولَهُ وَ الْأَئِمَّةَ ع وَ الشَّرَابُ الْمُخْتَلِفُ أَلْوَانُهُ فُنُونُ الْعِلْمِ قَدْ يُعَلِّمُهَا الْأَئِمَّةُ شِيعَتَهُمْ فِيهِ شِفاءٌ لِلنَّاسِ يَقُولُ فِي الْعِلْمِ شِفَاءٌ لِلنَّاسِ وَ الشِّيعَةُ هُمُ النَّاسُ وَ غَيْرُهُمْ اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِهِمْ مَا هُمْ
The ’bee’ (is a reference to) the Imams-asws, and mountains of the Arabs, and the tree, the ones in the Wilayah, the free, from what they are constructing [16:68] – meaning the children and the slaves, from the ones who are not free, and he is in the Wilayah of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww and the Imams-asws, and the drink of different colours [16:69], skills of knowledge which the Imams-asws teach their-asws Shias, wherein is healing for the people. He-asws is Saying, in the knowledge there is a healing for the people, and the Shias, they are the people, and (as for) others, Allah-azwj Knows them what they are’.
قَالَ وَ لَوْ كَانَ كَمَا يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ الْعَسَلُ الَّذِي يَأْكُلُهُ النَّاسُ إِذَا مَا أُكِلَ مِنْهُ فَلَا يَشْرَبُ ذُو عَاهَةٍ إِلَّا بَرَأَ لِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ فِيهِ شِفاءٌ لِلنَّاسِ وَ لَا خُلْفَ لِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ
He-asws said: ‘And if it was as they are claiming that it is the honey which the people are eating, then no one with a disability would eat from it nor drink from it except he would be cured, due to the Words of Allah-azwj: wherein is healing for the people, and the Words of Allah-azwj will not be opposed.
وَ إِنَّمَا الشِّفَاءُ فِي عِلْمِ الْقُرْآنِ لِقَوْلِهِ وَ نُنَزِّلُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ ما هُوَ شِفاءٌ وَ رَحْمَةٌ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَهُوَ شِفَاءٌ وَ رَحْمَةٌ لِأَهْلِهِ لَا شَكَّ فِيهِ وَ لَا مِرْيَةَ وَ أَهْلُهُ الْأَئِمَّةُ الْهُدَى الَّذِينَ قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى ثُمَّ أَوْرَثْنَا الْكِتابَ الَّذِينَ اصْطَفَيْنا مِنْ عِبادِنا.
And rather, the healing is in the knowledge of the Quran, due to His-azwj Words: And We Reveal from the Quran what is a healing and a Mercy for the Momineen, [17:82]. Thus, healing and Mercy is for its rightful ones, there is neither doubt in it nor any dispute, and its rightful ones are the Imams-asws of the guidance, those Allah-azwj the Exalted Said: Then We Gave the Book as an inheritance to those We Chose from among Our servants. [35:32]’’.[284]
6- وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي الرَّبِيعِ الشَّامِيِّ عَنْهُ فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ وَ أَوْحى رَبُّكَ إِلَى النَّحْلِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنِ اتَّخِذِي مِنَ الْجِبالِ بُيُوتاً قَالَ تَزَوَّجْ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ وَ مِنَ الشَّجَرِ قَالَ فِي الْعَرَبِ وَ مِمَّا يَعْرِشُونَ قَالَ فِي الْمَوَالِي يَخْرُجُ مِنْ بُطُونِها شَرابٌ مُخْتَلِفٌ أَلْوانُهُ قَالَ أَنْوَاعُ الْعِلْمِ فِيهِ شِفاءٌ لِلنَّاسِ.
And in a report of Abu Al Rabie Al Shamy, from him,
‘Regarding Words of Allah-azwj: And your Lord Revealed unto the bee [16:68]. Rasool-Allah-saww said (regarding): “Take houses from the mountains – marry from Quraysh, and from the trees – among the Arabs, and from what they are constructing [16:68] – among the ones in Wilayah. There comes out from their bellies a drink of different colours – variety of knowledge, wherein is healing for the people. [16:69]’’.[285]

Tafseer Furat Bin Ibrahim – Muhammad Bin Al Husayn Bin Ibrahim transmitting from Muhammad Bin Al Fuzeyl who said,
‘I asked Abu Al-Hassan-asws about Words of Allah-azwj the Exalted: And your Lord Revealed unto the bee saying: “Take houses from the mountains, he-asws said: ‘From Quraysh’.
قُلْتُ قَوْلُهُ وَ مِنَ الشَّجَرِ قَالَ يَعْنِي مِنَ الْعَرَبِ
I said, ‘His-azwj Words: and from the trees?’ He-asws said: ‘It means, from the Arabs’.
قَالَ قُلْتُ وَ مِمَّا يَعْرِشُونَ قَالَ يَعْنِي مِنَ الْمَوَالِي
He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘and from what they are constructing [16:68]?’ He-asws said: ‘Meaning, from the ones in Wilayah’.
قَالَ قُلْتُ قَوْلُهُ فَاسْلُكِي سُبُلَ رَبِّكِ ذُلُلًا قَالَ هُوَ السَّبِيلُ الَّذِي نَحْنُ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ دِينِهِ
He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘and travel the Way of your Lord submissively?’ He-asws said: ‘It is the Way which we-asws are upon from His-azwj Religion’.
قُلْتُ فِيهِ شِفاءٌ لِلنَّاسِ قَالَ يَعْنِي مَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْ عِلْمِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع فَهُوَ الشِّفَاءُ كَمَا قَالَ شِفاءٌ لِما فِي الصُّدُورِ.
I said, ‘wherein is healing for the people [16:69]?’ He-asws said: ‘Meaning what comes out from the knowledge of Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, so it is the healing just as He-azwj Said: a Healing for what is in the chests [10:57]’’.[286]

باب 40 أنهم عليهم السلام أولو النهى
CHAPTER 40 – THEY-asws ARE POSSESORS OF THE INTELLECT
1- فس، تفسير القمي أَبِي عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ ابْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ إِنَّ فِي ذلِكَ لَآياتٍ لِأُولِي النُّهى قَالَ نَحْنُ وَ اللَّهِ أُولُو النُّهَى فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ وَ مَا مَعْنَى أُولِي النُّهَى
Tafseer Al Qummi – My father, from Ibn Mahboub, from Ibn Riab, from Ammar,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘I asked him-asws about Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: Surely in that are Signs for the ones possessing intellect [20:128]. He-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! We-asws are the possessors of the intellect’. I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! And what is the meaning of ‘possessors of the intellect’?’
قَالَ مَا أَخْبَرَ اللَّهُ بِهِ رَسُولَهُ مِمَّا يَكُونُ بَعْدَهُ مِنِ ادِّعَاءِ أَبِي فُلَانٍ الْخِلَافَةَ وَ الْقِيَامِ بِهَا وَ الْآخَرِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ وَ الثَّالِثِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمَا وَ بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ
He-asws said: ‘What Allah-azwj had Informed His-azwj Rasools-as with, from what would be transpiring after him-saww, from the claiming of the caliphate by Abu so and so, and the staying with it, and the other one from after him, and the third from after them both, and clan of Umayya.
فَأَخْبَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَلِيّاً ع وَ كَانَ ذَلِكَ كَمَا أَخْبَرَ اللَّهُ نَبِيَّهُ وَ كَمَا أَخْبَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَلِيّاً ع وَ كَمَا انْتَهَى إِلَيْنَا مِنْ عَلِيٍّ فِيمَا يَكُونُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ مِنَ الْمُلْكِ فِي بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ وَ غَيْرِهِمْ فَهَذِهِ الْآيَةُ الَّتِي ذَكَرَهَا اللَّهُ فِي الْكِتَابِ إِنَّ فِي ذلِكَ لَآياتٍ لِأُولِي النُّهى
Rasool-Allah-saww informed Ali-asws, and that happened just as Allah-azwj had Informed His-azwj Prophet-saww, and just as Rasool-Allah-saww had informed Ali-asws, and just as it has ended up to us-asws from Ali-asws, regarding what will be transpiring from after him-asws, from the kingdom of clan of Umayya and others, and this is the Verse which Allah-azwj Mentioned in His-azwj Book: Surely in that are Signs for the ones possessing intellect [20:128].
فَنَحْنُ أُولُو النُّهَى الَّذِينَ انْتَهَى إِلَيْنَا عِلْمُ هَذَا كُلِّهِ فَصَبَرْنَا لِأَمْرِ اللَّهِ فَنَحْنُ قُوَّامُ اللَّهِ عَلَى خَلْقِهِ وَ خُزَّانُهُ عَلَى دِينِهِ نَخْزَنُهُ وَ نَسْتُرُهُ وَ نَكْتَتِمُ بِهِ مِنْ عَدُوِّنَا كَمَا اكْتَتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص حَتَّى أَذِنَ اللَّهُ لَهُ فِي الْهِجْرَةِ وَ جَاهَدَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ
Thus, we-asws are the possessors of intellect, those the knowledge of all this ended up to us, and we-asws were patient to the Command of Allah-azwj. We-asws are the custodians of Allah-azwj upon His-azwj creatures, and treasurers upon His-azwj Knowledge. We-asws treasure it, and veil it, and conceal it from our-asws enemies, just as Rasool-Allah-saww had concealed until Allah-azwj Permitted for him-saww regarding the emigration and he-saww fought the Polytheists.
فَنَحْنُ عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص حَتَّى يَأْذَنَ اللَّهُ لَنَا فِي إِظْهَارِ دِينِهِ بِالسَّيْفِ وَ نَدْعُو النَّاسَ إِلَيْهِ فَنَضْرِبُهُمْ عَلَيْهِ عَوْداً كَمَا ضَرَبَهُمُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بَدْواً.
So, we-asws are upon the manifesto of Rasool-Allah-saww until Allah-azwj Permits for us-asws regarding the manifestation of His-azwj Religion with the sword, and we-asws call the people to it. We-asws will strike them upon it repeating just as Rasool-Allah-saww had struck them in the beginning’’.[297]

And when distress afflicted him, meaning illness, he supplicated to his Lord-azwj penitently, meaning repenting to Him-azwj, from what he used to say with regards to the Rasool-Allah-saww.

Then when He Bestows a Favour from Him – meaning the restoration of health, he forgets whatever he had been supplicating from before – meaning his asking for Forgiveness to Allah-azwj from what he used to say regarding the Rasool-Allah-saww that he-saww was a sorcerer.

I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, are you-asws recognising the ones who love you-asws and those who hate you-asws?’ He-asws said: ‘Woe be unto you, O Abu Suleiman. There is no servant who is born, but it is written between his eyes ‘Momin’, or ‘Kafir’. The man, we-asws let him come to us-asws with our-asws Wilayah and keep away from our-asws enemies, for we-asws see the writing between his eyes ‘Momin’, or ‘Kafir’, and Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic has Said regarding that: Surely, in that are Signs for the distinguishers [15:75].

(The books) ‘Al Ihtisas’ (and) ‘Basaair Al Darajaat’ – Al Hassan Bin Ali Bin Abdullah, from Ubeys Bin Hisham, from Suleyman,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘A man asked him-asws about the Imam-asws, ‘Does Allah-azwj Delegate to him-asws just as He-azwj had Delegated to Suleyman-as?’ He-asws said: ‘Yes’.
وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنْ مَسْأَلَةٍ فَأَجَابَ فِيهَا وَ سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ عَنْ تِلْكَ الْمَسْأَلَةِ فَأَجَابَهُ بِغَيْرِ جَوَابِ الْأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ آخَرُ عَنْهَا فَأَجَابَهُ بِغَيْرِ جَوَابِ الْأَوَّلَيْنِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَذَا عَطَاؤُنَا فَامْنُنْ أَوْ أَعْطِ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ هَكَذَا فِي قِرَاءَةِ عَلِيٍّ ع
And that is because a man had asked him-asws about an issue and he-asws answered him regarding it; and another man asked about that very (same) issue and he-asws answered him-asws with another answer to the first; then another one asked about it and he-asws answered with another answer to the two former ones. Then he-asws said: ‘This is Our Gift, so either confer or give without a Reckoning [38:39] – and like this it is in the recitation of Ali-asws’’.
قَالَ قُلْتُ أَصْلَحَكَ اللَّهُ فَحِينَ أَجَابَهُمْ بِهَذَا الْجَوَابِ يَعْرِفُهُمُ الْإِمَامُ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ أَ مَا تَسْمَعُ قَوْلَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى فِي كِتَابِهِ إِنَّ فِي ذلِكَ لَآياتٍ لِلْمُتَوَسِّمِينَ وَ هُمُ الْأَئِمَّةُ وَ إِنَّها لَبِسَبِيلٍ مُقِيمٍ لَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا أَبَداً
He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘May Allah-azwj Keep you-asws well! When he-asws answered them with this answer, the Imam-asws recognised them?’ He-asws said: ‘Glory be to Allah-azwj! Have you not heard Words of Allah-azwj the Exalted in His-azwj Book: Surely, in that are Signs for the distinguishers [15:75], and they-asws are the Imams-asws’. (And as for) And it is on an enduring way [15:76], he-asws said: ‘It will not exit from us-asws, ever!’

Then he-asws said: ‘Yes, surely the Imam-asws, when he-asws looks at a man, recognises his type, and if he-asws hears his voice from behind a wall, would recognise him and recognise what he is, because Allah-azwj Says: And from His Signs is the Creation of the skies and the earth and the diversity of your tongues and your colours. Surely there are Signs in that for the learned [30:22].
فَهُمُ الْعُلَمَاءُ وَ لَيْسَ يَسْمَعُ شَيْئاً مِنَ الْأَلْسُنِ إِلَّا عَرَفَهُ نَاجٍ أَوْ هَالِكٌ فَلِذَلِكَ يُجِيبُهُمْ بِالَّذِي يُجِيبُهُمْ بِهِ.
So, these are the scholars, and he-asws would not hear anything from the tongues except he-asws would recognise a rescued one or a destroyed one. So, due to that, he-asws answers them with that which he-asws answers them with’’.[311]

‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws was explaining in the Mosque of Kufa when a woman came up who had antagonised her husband, saying that her husband was angry with her. He-asws told her that her husband was right in being angry with her. She said, ‘By Allah-azwj, there is no truth in your-asws judgement, you-asws have not judged equitably, nor have you-asws done justice among your-asws citizens, and I will drag you-asws for Judgement before Allah-azwj until I am satisfied’.

He-asws looked at her carefully, then said to her: ‘You are lying, O audacious, O evil-tongued, O “Salsala” (the one who does not get impregnated from where women get impregnated from). The woman shrieked and ran away, and was saying, ‘Woe is unto me, woe is unto me, the son-asws of Abu Talib-asws has violated my secret which had remained covered’.
قَالَ فَلَحِقَهَا عَمْرُو بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ فَقَالَ يَا أَمَةَ اللَّهِ لَقَدِ اسْتَقْبَلْتِ عَلِيّاً بِكَلَامٍ سَرَرْتِنِي بِهِ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ نَزَعَ لَكِ بِكَلَامٍ فَوَلَّيْتِ عَنْهُ هَارِبَةً تُوَلْوِلِينَ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ عَلِيّاً وَ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنِي بِالْحَقِّ وَ بِمَا أَكْتُمُهُ مِنْ زَوْجِي مُنْذُ وَلِيَ عِصْمَتِي وَ مِنْ أَبَوَيَّ
Amro Bin Haris ran after her and said to her, ‘O mother, you have confronted Ali-asws with words that have made me happy, then he-asws removed you with words, due to which you invoked woe upon yourself, and ran away shrieking’. She said, ‘Ali-asws informed me with the truth which I had kept concealed from my husband since he became the guardian of my protection, and from my father’.

Amro returned to Amir-Al-Momineen-asws. He informed him-asws of what the woman had said to him, and he said to him-asws, ‘By what did you speak, by fortune-telling?’ He-asws said to him: ‘Woe be unto you, O Amro, it was not a thing by fortune-telling, but, Allah-azwj Created the spirits before the bodies by two thousand years. When He-azwj Mounted the spirits into their bodies, He-azwj Wrote between their eyes whether he was a believer or an infidel, and what they will be plagued by it, and what they will have to them from evil of their deeds and good, even smaller than a rat’s ear.

فَقَضَى لِلزَّوْجِ عَلَيْهَا فَغَضِبَتْ فَقَالَتْ وَ اللَّهِ مَا هُوَ كَمَا قَضَيْتَ وَ اللَّهِ مَا تَقْضِي بِالسَّوِيَّةِ وَ لَا تَعْدِلُ فِي الرَّعِيَّةِ وَ لَا قَضِيَّتُكَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ بِالْمَرْضِيَّةِ
He-asws judged for the husband and she got angry and said, ‘By Allah-azwj! It is not as you-asws have judged! By Allah-azwj! You-asws have not judged with the fairness, nor are you-asws just among the citizens, nor is your-asws judgment is with the Pleasure in the Presence of Allah-azwj’.
قَالَ فَغَضِبَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا مَلِيّاً ثُمَّ قَالَ كَذَبْتِ يَا جَرِيَّةُ يَا بَذِيَّةُ يَا سَلْسَعُ يَا سَلْفَعُ يَا الَّتِي لَا تَحِيضُ مِثْلَ النِّسَاءِ قَالَ فَوَلَّتْ هَارِبَةً وَ هِيَ تَقُولُ وَيْلِي وَيْلِي فَتَبِعَهَا
He (the narrator) said, ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws was angered. He-asws looked at her for a while, then said: ‘You are lying, O audacious, O evil-tongued, O Salsala (one who does not get impregnated from where the women get impregnated from), O Salf’a, one who does not menstruate like the women’. She turned around fleeing and she was saying, ‘Woe be unto me! Woe be unto me!’
عَمْرُو بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ فَقَالَ يَا أَمَةَ اللَّهِ قَدِ اسْتَقْبَلْتِ ابْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ بِكَلَامٍ سَرَرْتِنِي بِهِ ثُمَّ نَزَغَكِ بِكَلِمَةٍ فَوَلَّيْتِ مِنْهُ هَارِبَةً تُوَلْوِلِينَ
Amro Bin Haris followed her and said, ‘O maid of Allah-azwj! You have faced Ali Bin Abu Talib-asws with a speech cheering me with it, then he-asws removed you with speech and you turned around fleeing from him-asws, turning around’.
قَالَ فَقَالَتْ يَا هَذَا إِنَّ ابْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي وَ اللَّهِ بِمَا هُوَ فِيَّ لَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا رَأَيْتُ حَيْضاً كَمَا تَرَاهُ الْمَرْأَةُ
He (the narrator) said, ‘She said, ‘O you! This son-asws of Abu Talib-asws informed me, by Allah-azwj, with what is in me. No, by Allah-azwj! I have not seen a menstruation just as the woman tends to see’.
قَالَ فَرَجَعَ عَمْرُو بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ إِلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع فَقَالَ لَهُ يَا ابْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ مَا هَذَا التَّكَهُّنُ
He (the narrator) said, ‘Amro Bin Haris returned happily to Amir Al-Momineen-asws and said to him-asws, ‘O son-asws of Abu Talib-asws! What is this sooth-saying?’
قَالَ وَيْلَكَ يَا ابْنَ حُرَيْثٍ لَيْسَ هَذَا مِنِّي كِهَانَةً إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى خَلَقَ الْأَرْوَاحَ قَبْلَ الْأَبْدَانِ بِأَلْفَيْ عَامٍ ثُمَّ كَتَبَ بَيْنَ أَعْيُنِهَا مُؤْمِنٌ أَوْ كَافِرٌ ثُمَّ أَنْزَلَ بِذَلِكَ قُرْآناً عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ إِنَّ فِي ذلِكَ لَآياتٍ لِلْمُتَوَسِّمِينَ فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مِنَ الْمُتَوَسِّمِينَ وَ أَنَا بَعْدَهُ وَ الْأَئِمَّةُ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِي.
He-asws said: ‘Woe be unto you, O son of Haris! This isn’t a sooth-saying from me-asws. Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted Created the souls before the bodies by two thousand years, then Inscribed between its eyes, ‘Momin’, or ‘kafir’. Then Sent down Quran with that upon Muhammad-saww: Surely, in that are Signs for the distinguishers [15:75]. Rasool-Allah-saww was from the distinguishers, and I-asws from after him-saww, and the Imams-asws from my-asws offspring’’.[323]

Grant to us from our wives – meaning (Syeda) Fatima-asws, and our offspring, Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws, delight of our eyes, [25:74].

باب 44 أنهم عليهم السلام الشجرة الطيبة في القرآن و أعداءهم الشجرة الخبيثة
CHAPTER 44 – THEY-asws ARE ‘THE GOOD TREE’ IN THE QURAN, AND THEIR-asws ENEMIES ARE ‘THE WICKED TREE’
الآيات إبراهيم أَ لَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ ضَرَبَ اللَّهُ مَثَلًا كَلِمَةً طَيِّبَةً كَشَجَرَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ أَصْلُها ثابِتٌ وَ فَرْعُها فِي السَّماءِ
The Verses: (Surah) Ibrahim-as: Do you not see how Allah Strikes an example of a good word as being like a good tree, its roots are stable and its branches are in the sky [14:24]
تُؤْتِي أُكُلَها كُلَّ حِينٍ بِإِذْنِ رَبِّها وَ يَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الْأَمْثالَ لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ
Yielding its fruit in every season by the permission of its Lord? And Allah Strikes the examples for the people that they might be mindful [14:25]
وَ مَثَلُ كَلِمَةٍ خَبِيثَةٍ كَشَجَرَةٍ خَبِيثَةٍ اجْتُثَّتْ مِنْ فَوْقِ الْأَرْضِ ما لَها مِنْ قَرارٍ
And an example of a wicked word is like a wicked tree uprooted from above the ground, there would be not stability for it [14:26].
Notes: –
وَ رَوَى ابْنُ عُقْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع أَنَّ الشَّجَرَةَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ سَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ مِثْلَ مَا سَيَأْتِي فِي رِوَايَةِ جَابِرٍ.
And it is reported by Ibn Uqda,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws: ‘The (good) tree is Rasool-Allah-saww’ – and continued to Hadeeth like what I (Majlisi) will be coming up with in a report of Jabir’.
المراد بالكلمة الطيبة الإيمان و بالشجرة الطيبة المؤمن تُؤْتِي أُكُلَها أي تخرج هذه الشجرة ما يؤكل منها كُلَّ حِينٍ أي في كل ستة أشهر- عن أبي جعفر ع.
The intended with the ‘good word’ is the Eman, and with ‘the good tree’ is the Momin, Yielding its fruit, i.e. this tree brings forth what they are eating from it, every season [14:24], i.e., during every six months’ – from Abu Ja’far-asws.
و روى أبو الجارود عن أبي جعفر ع أن هذا مثل بني أمية.
And Abu Al-Jaroud reported from Abu Ja’far-asws: ‘This (wicked tree [14:26]) is an example of clan of Umayya’.
و روي عن ابن عباس أنها شجرة لم يخلقها الله بعد و إنما هو مثل ضربه.
And it is reported from Ibn Abbas, ‘It is a tree Allah-azwj has yet to Create, and it is an example He-azwj has Struck’. (Not a Hadeeth)

(The book) ‘IKmal Al Deen’ – A group of our companions, from Muhammad Bin Hammam, from Ja’far Al Fazary, from Ja’far Bin Ismail Al Hashimy, from his maternal uncle Muhammad Bin Ali, from Abdul Rahman Bin Hammad, from Umar Bin Yazeed Al Sabiry who said,
‘I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about this Verse: , its roots are stable and its branches are in the sky [14:24]. He-asws said: ‘Its roots is Rasool-Allah-saww, and its branches are Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws and nine from sons-asws of Al-Husayn-asws are its branches, and the Shias are its leaves. By Allah-azwj! The man from them (Shias) dies, so a leaf falls from that three’.

I said, ‘Words of Mighty and Majestic: Yielding its fruit in every season [14:25]’. He-asws said: ‘What comes out from knowledge of the Imams-asws to you all during every Hajj and Umrah’’.[347]

Tafseer Furat Bin Ibrahim – Ismail Bin Ibrahim, by his chain, from Umar Bin Yazeed who said,
‘I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about Words of Allah-azwj the Exalted: like a good tree, its roots are stable and its branches are in the sky [14:24]. He-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww, by Allah-azwj, is its root, and Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws its branch, and their-asws Shias its leave. Do you see any extra in it?’ I said, ‘No’’.[350]
11- فر، تفسير فرات بن إبراهيم جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْفَزَارِيُّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ السَّرَّاجِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ أَصْلُها ثابِتٌ وَ فَرْعُها فِي السَّماءِ قَالَ نَحْنُ هُمْ قَالَ قُلْتُ تُؤْتِي أُكُلَها كُلَّ حِينٍ بِإِذْنِ رَبِّها قَالَ يَخْرُجُ مِنَّا بَعْدَ حِينَ فَيُقْتَلُ.
Tafseer Furat Bin Ibrahim – Ja’far Bin Muhammad Al Fazary, by his chain from Abu Salama Al Sarraj who said,
‘I asked Abdullah Bin Al-Hassan about this Verse: its roots are stable and its branches are in the sky [14:24]. He-asws said: ‘We-asws are they’. I said, ‘Yielding its fruit in every season by the permission of its Lord? [14:25]’. He-asws said: ‘He-asws will come out after a while, being from us-asws, and he-asws will be killed’’.[351]
12- كا، الكافي الْعِدَّةُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ سَيْفٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ حُرَيْثٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ كَشَجَرَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ أَصْلُها ثابِتٌ وَ فَرْعُها فِي السَّماءِ فَقَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنَا أَصْلُهَا وَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع فَرْعُهَا وَ الْأَئِمَّةُ ع مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا أَغْصَانُهَا وَ عِلْمُ الْأَئِمَّةِ ثَمَرَتُهَا وَ شِيعَتُهُمُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَرَقُهَا هَلْ فِيهَا فَضْلٌ
(The book) ‘Al Kafi’ – The number, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Sayf, from his father, from Amro Bin Hureys who said,
‘I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about Words of Allah-azwj: like a good tree, its roots are stable and its branches are in the sky [14:24]. He-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘I-saww am its root, and Amir Al-Momineen-asws its trunk, and the Imams-asws from their-asws offspring are it branches, knowledge of the Imams-asws its fruit, and their-asws Shias, the Momineen as its leave. Do you see any extra in it?’
قَالَ قُلْتُ لَا وَ اللَّهِ قَالَ وَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ لَيُولَدُ فَتُورَقُ وَرَقَةٌ فِيهَا وَ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ لَيَمُوتُ فَيَسْقُطُ وَرَقَةٌ مِنْهَا.
He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘No, by Allah-azwj’. He-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! The Momin is born, so a leaf sprouts in it, and the Momin dies, so a leaf falls from it’’.[352]
13- أَقُولُ رُوِيَ فِي الْمُسْتَدْرَكِ مِنْ كِتَابِ الْفِرْدَوْسِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَنَا شَجَرَةٌ وَ فَاطِمَةُ حَمْلُهَا وَ عَلِيٌّ لِقَاحُهَا وَ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ ثَمَرُهَا وَ الْمُحِبُّونَ لِأَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ وَرَقُهَا مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ حَقّاً حَقّاً.
I (Majlisi) say, ‘It is reported in (the book) ‘Al Mustadrak’, from the book ‘Al Firdows’, by his chain from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘I-saww am a tree, and (Syeda) Fatima-asws its load (fruit), and Ali-asws its pollen, and Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws its fruit, and the ones loving People-asws of the Household its leaves, are (all) from the Paradise, truly, truly!’’[353]
