تَفْسِيرُ الثَّعْلَبِيِّ فِي رِوَايَةِ بُرَيْدَةَ وَ أَنْ أُعَلِّمَكَ وَ تَعِيَ وَ حَقٌّ عَلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ تَسْمَعَ وَ تَعِيَ فَنَزَلَتْ وَ تَعِيَها أُذُنٌ واعِيَةٌ.
Tafseer Al-Sa’albi – In a report of Bureyda – ‘(He-saww said): ‘And that I-saww should teach you-asws, and you-asws preserve it, and it is a right upon Allah-azwj that you-asws listen and retain’. So it was Revealed: and the retaining ear is preserving it [69:12]’’.[5]

He-saww said: ‘Allah-azwj the Exalted Commanded me-saww that I-saww should draw you-asws near and not distance you-asws, and that I-saww should teach you-asws and not keep you-asws dry, and there is a right upon me-asws that I-saww should obey my-saww Lord-azwj regarding you-asws, and there is a right upon you-asws that you-asws retain’’.[6]
مُحَاضَرَاتُ الرَّاغِبِ قَالَ الضَّحَّاكُ وَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَ فِي أَمَالِي الطُّوسِيِّ قَالَ الصَّادِقُ ع وَ فِي بَعْضِ كُتُبِ الشِّيعَةِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ طَرِيفٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالُوا وَ تَعِيَها أُذُنٌ واعِيَةٌ أُذُنُ عَلِيٍّ.
(The book) ‘Muzaharaat Al-Raghib’ – Al-Zahhak said, and Ibn Abbas, and in (the book) ‘Amaali’ of Al-Tusi, ‘Al-Sadiq-asws said, and in one of the books of the Shias, from Sa’ad Bin Tareyf, ‘From Abu Ja’far-asws, they said, ‘and the retaining ear is preserving it [69:12] – ear of Ali-asws’’.[7]
الْبَاقِرُ ع قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ وَ اللَّهِ أُذُنَيْكَ يَا عَلِيُ.
Al-Baqir-asws said: ‘The Prophet-saww said when this Verse was Revealed: ‘By Allah-azwj, your-asws ear, O Ali-asws!’’[8]
كِتَابُ الْيَاقُوتِ عَنْ أَبِي عُمَرَ غُلَامِ ثَعْلَبٍ وَ الْكَشْفُ وَ الْبَيَانُ عَنِ الثَّعْلَبِيِّ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ فِي كِتَابِ الْكُلَيْنِيِّ وَ اللَّفْظُ لَهُ عَنْ مَيْمُونِ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ وَ تَعِيَها أُذُنٌ واعِيَةٌ قُلْتُ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهَا أُذُنَ عَلِيٍّ فَمَا سَمِعَ شَيْئاً بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا حَفِظَهُ.
Kitab ‘Al Yaqout’ – From Abu Umar a slave of Sa’lab, and Al Kashaf, and Al Bayan, from Al Sa’alby who said, ‘Abdullah Bin Al-Hassan in the book of Al Kulayni, and the words for it, from Maymoun Bin Mihran, from Ibn Abbas,
‘From the Prophet-saww, when it was Revealed: and the retaining ear is preserving it [69:12]: ‘I-saww said: ‘O Allah-azwj! Make it to be the ear of Ali-asws, so he-asws would not hear anything except preserve it’’.[9]
سَعِيدُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَ تَعِيَها أُذُنٌ واعِيَةٌ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع ثُمَّ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص مَا زِلْتُ أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى مُنْذُ أُنْزِلَتْ أَنْ تَكُونَ أُذُنَيْكَ يَا عَلِيُّ.
Saeed Bin Jubeyr, from Ibn Abbas, ‘and the retaining ear is preserving it [69:12] is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’. Then he said, ‘The Prophet-saww said: ‘I-saww have not ceased asking Allah-azwj the Exalted sin it was Revealed that it should be your-asws ear, O Ali-asws!’’[10]
تَفْسِيرُ الْقُشَيْرِيِّ وَ غَرِيبُ الْهَرَوِيِ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع إِنِّي دَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ هَذِهِ أُذُنَكَ.
Tafseer Al-Qusheyri and (the book) ‘Gareeb Al-Harwy’ – When this Verse was Revealed, the Prophet-saww said to Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws: ‘I-saww supplicated to Allah-azwj that He-azwj Make this to be your-asws ear’’.[11]
جَابِرٌ الْجُعْفِيُّ وَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ مَكْحُولٌ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِنِّي سَأَلْتُ رَبِّي أَنْ يَجْعَلَهَا أُذُنَكَ يَا عَلِيُّ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهَا أُذُناً وَاعِيَةً أُذُنَ عَلِيٍّ فَفَعَلَ فَمَا نَسِيتُ شَيْئاً سَمِعْتُهُ بَعْدُ.
Jabir Al-Jufy and Abdullah Bin Al-Husayn and Mak’howl who said, Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘I-saww asked my-saww Lord-azwj to Make it to be your-asws ear, O Ali-asws. O Allah-azwj! Make the retaining ear to be the ear of Ali-asws!’ He-azwj did so, so he-asws did not forget anything he-asws had heard afterwards’’.[12]
5- كشف، كشف الغمة مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ عَنِ الثَّعْلَبِيِّ فِي تَفْسِيرِهِ يَرْفَعُهُ بِسَنَدِهِ قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ وَ تَعِيَها أُذُنٌ واعِيَةٌ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لِعَلِيٍّ ع سَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَهَا أُذُنَكَ يَا عَلِيُّ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ فَمَا نَسِيتُ شَيْئاً بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَ مَا كَانَ لِي أَنْ أَنْسَى.

6- كشف، كشف الغمة وَ رَوَى الثَّعْلَبِيُّ وَ الْوَاحِدِيُّ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا يَرْفَعُهُ بِسَنَدِهِ الثَّعْلَبِيُّ فِي تَفْسِيرِهِ وَ الْوَاحِدِيُّ فِي تَصْنِيفِهِ الْمَوْسُومِ بِأَسْبَابِ النُّزُولِ إِلَى بُرَيْدَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص يَقُولُ لِعَلِيٍّ ع إِنَّ اللَّهَ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أُدْنِيَكَ وَ لَا أُقْصِيَكَ وَ أَنْ أُعَلِّمَكَ وَ أَنْ تَعِيَ وَ حَقٌّ عَلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ تَعِيَ قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ وَ تَعِيَها أُذُنٌ واعِيَةٌ.

Muhammad Bin Al Abbas as referred to thirty Ahadeeth from the special ones (Shias) and the general (non-Shias), so from what we informed us is what is reported from Muhammad Bin Sahl Al Qattan, from Ahmad Bin Umeyr Al Dihqan, from Muhammad Bin Kaseer, from Al Haris Bin Haseyra, from Abu Dawood, from Abu Bureyda who said,

8- وَ مِنْهَا مَا رَوَاهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جَرِيرٍ الطَّبَرِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ الْمَرْوَزِيِّ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ الْفَزَارِيِّ عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ فِي هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَهَا أُذُنَ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ وَ كَانَ عَلِيٌّ ع يَقُولُ مَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص شَيْئاً إِلَّا حَفِظْتُهُ وَ لَمْ أَنْسَهُ.

‘From Umar son of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, from his father-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Commanded me-saww that I-saww draw you near and teach you-asws for you-asws to presence, and this Verse was Revealed: and the retaining ear is preserving it [69:12].

12- وَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى وَ تَعِيَها أُذُنٌ واعِيَةٌ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص دَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَهَا أُذُنَكَ يَا عَلِيُّ.
And by hid chain from Mak’howl,
‘From Ali-asws regarding Words of Allah-azwj the Exalted: and the retaining ear is preserving it [69:12]. Ali-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said to me: ‘I-saww supplicated to Allah-azwj that He-azwj should Make it to be your-asws ear, O Ali-asws’’.[20]
13- وَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أُذُنُ عَلِيٍ.
And by his chain from Abdullah Bin Al-Husayn who said, ‘When it was Revealed, Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Ear of Ali-asws’’.[21]
14- وَ بِالْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ: فَسَأَلْتُ رَبِّي وَ قُلْتُ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهَا أُذُنَ عَلِيٍّ وَ كَانَ عَلِيٌّ ع يَقُولُ مَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ كَلَاماً إِلَّا وَعَيْتُهُ وَ حَفِظْتُهُ فَلَمْ أَنْسَهُ.
And by the chain, said, ‘I-saww asked my-saww Lord-azwj and said: ‘O Allah-azwj! Make it to be the ear of Ali-asws’. And Ali-asws was Saying: ‘I-asws did not hear from the Prophet-saww of Allah-azwj any speech except I-asws retained it and preserved it, I-asws did not forget it’’.[22]
أَقُولُ وَجَدْتُ فِي كِتَابِ الْغُرَرِ لِلسَّيِّدِ الْجَلِيلِ حَيْدَرَ الْحُسَيْنِيِّ الْآمُلِيِّ نَقْلًا مِنْ كِتَابِ مَنْقَبَةِ الْمُطَهَّرِينَ لِلْحَافِظِ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْعَلَوِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَا عَلِيُّ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أُدْنِيَكَ وَ أُعَلِّمَكَ لِتَعِيَ وَ أُنْزِلَتْ عَلَيَ- وَ تَعِيَها أُذُنٌ واعِيَةٌ فَأَنْتَ أُذُنٌ وَاعِيَةٌ لِلْعِلْمِ.
I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘I found in the book ‘Al Ghurr’ for the seyyind, the majestic Hayder Al-Husayni Al Amuli, copied from the book ‘Manqab Al Mutahharin’ of the Hafiz Abu Nueym, from Muhammad Bin Umar Bin Aslam, from Al Qasim Bin Muhammad Bin Ja’far Al Alaqy, from his father, from his forefathers,
‘Umar son of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws Amir Al-Momineen-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Commanded me-saww that I-saww draw you-asws near and teach you-asws to you-asws to preserve, and Revealed unto me-saww: and the retaining ear is preserving it [69:12]. So, You are the retainer of the knowledge’’.[23]
وَ رَوَى الْمَضَامِينَ الْمُتَقَدِّمَةَ بِثَلَاثَةِ أَسَانِيدَ عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ وَ رَوَى أَيْضاً بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ وَ تَعِيَها أُذُنٌ واعِيَةٌ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أُذُنِي وَ أُذُنُ عَلِيٍّ.
And it is reported by Al Mazamin Al Mutaqaddimah, by three chain from Mak’houl, and it is reported as well by his chain from Abdullah Bin Al-Husayn having said:

Tafseer Al Qummi – In a report of Abu Al Jaroud,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws regarding His-azwj Words: Is the one who was a Momin like the one who was a transgressor? They are not equal! [32:18]. He-asws said: ‘And that is when Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and Al-Waleed Bin Uqba Bin Abu Mueet quarrelled, so the transgressor Al-Waleed Bin Uqba Bin Abu Mueet said, ‘By Allah-azwj, I am more refined than you-asws in language, and sharper than you-asws of a blade (killed more), and similar to you-asws in kneeling (being steadfast) in the battalion’.
فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع اسْكُتْ فَإِنَّمَا أَنْتَ فَاسِقٌ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ أَ فَمَنْ كانَ مُؤْمِناً كَمَنْ كانَ فاسِقاً لا يَسْتَوُونَ- أَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَ عَمِلُوا الصَّالِحاتِ فَلَهُمْ جَنَّاتُ الْمَأْوى نُزُلًا بِما كانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ فَهُوَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ أَمَّا الَّذِينَ فَسَقُوا فَمَأْواهُمُ النَّارُ كُلَّما أَرادُوا أَنْ يَخْرُجُوا مِنْها أُعِيدُوا فِيها وَ قِيلَ لَهُمْ ذُوقُوا عَذابَ النَّارِ الَّذِي كُنْتُمْ بِهِ تُكَذِّبُونَ.
Ali-asws said: ‘Be silent, for you are a transgressor!’ Thus Allah-azwj Revealed: Is the one who was a Momin like the one who was a transgressor? They are not equal! [32:18] As for those who believe and do righteous deeds, for them are the resort Gardens, being a hospitality due to what they had been doing [32:19] – So he-asws is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws; And as for those who transgress, their abode is the Fire. Every time they intend to exit from it, there would be returned into it, and it would be said to them: ‘Taste Punishment of the Fire which you were belying with!’ [32:20]’’.[43]

And I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘And it is reported by Al Hafiz Abu Nueym in the book ‘Ma Nazal Al Qauran Fi Ali-asws’ by his chains from Al Kalby, from Abu Salih, from Ibn Abbas,
‘Waleed Bin Utba mentioned Ali-asws in the presence of the Prophet-saww with what he disliked. He said, ‘I am sharper than him-asws of a blade (killed more), and more sufficing for a battalion, needless’. The Prophet-saww said to him: : Is the one who was a Momin like the one who was a transgressor? They are not equal! [32:18]’’.[44]

And from Ibn Hayyan, from Abdullah Bin Muhammad, from Is’haq Bin Al Fayz, from Salamah Bin Hafs, from Sufyan Al Jareery, from Habeeb Bin Abu Aaliya, from Ikrimah (Bin Abu Jahal), from Ibn Abbas,
‘This Verse was Revealed regarding Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and Al-Waleed Bin Uqba’’.[46]

And from Abdullah Bin Muhammad Bin Ja’far Bin Is’haq Bin Bunan, from Hubeysh Bin Muhasshir, from Ubeydullah Bin Musa, from Ibn Abu Layli, from Al Hakam, from Ibn Jubeyr, from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘Al-Waleed Bin Uqba said to Ali-asws: ‘I am sharper than you-asws of blade (killed more), and more extensive (eloquent) than you-asws of tongue, and more filling (sufficing) than you for the battalion’.

Ali-asws said to him: ‘Be silent, for you are a transgressor!’ So, it was Revealed: ‘Is the one who was a Momin [32:18] – the Verse. He said, ‘It is meant by the Momin, Ali-asws, and by the transgressor, Al-Waleed Bin Uqba’’.[47]

And from Al-Hassan Bin Is’haq Bin Ibrahim, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Bakr, from Abu Hatim, from Abu Ubeyda Ma’mar Bin Musanna, from Yunus Bin Habeeb who said,
‘I asked Abu Amro about summarisation of the Makkah and Medinite Verses from the Quran. Abu Amro said, ‘I asked Mujahid like what you are asking me. He said, ‘I asked that to Ibn Abbas, he said, ‘Alif Lam Meem [32:1] of (Surah) Al-Sajdah was Revealed at Makkah except for three Verses from it which were Revealed at Al Medina, and that is because there was heated talk between Ali-asws and Al-Waleed.
فَقَالَ لَهُ الْوَلِيدُ أَنَا أَذْرَبُ مِنْكَ لِسَاناً وَ أَحَدُّ مِنْكَ سِنَاناً وَ أَدْرَكُ لِلْكَتِيبَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ ع اسْكُتْ فَإِنَّكَ فَاسِقٌ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ الْآيَةَ.
Al-Waleed said to him-asws, ‘I am more eloquent of tongue than you-asws, and sharper of blade (killed more) than you, and more sufficing for the battalion’. Ali-asws said to him: ‘Be silent, for you are a transgressor!’ So, Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Revealed the Verse’’.[48]

And I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘Zamakhshari said in (the book) ‘Al Kashaf’ –
‘It is reported regarding its Revelation that there was a heated quarrel between Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and Al-Waleed Bin Uqbah Bin Abu Mueet on the day of Badr. Al-Waleed said to him-asws, ‘Be silent, for you-asws are a child, I-asws am older than you-asws as youth, and more whipping (striking) than you-asws of a whip (sword), and more eloquent than you-asws of tongue, and braver than you-asws of heart, and more sufficing than you-asws for the battalion’. Ali-asws said to him: ‘Be quiet, for you are a transgressor!’ So, it was Revealed’’.[49]

And from Al-Hassan-asws Bin Ali-asws having said to Ali-asws: ‘How can you revile Ali-asws and Allah-azwj has Named him-asws as ‘Momin’ in ten Verses and Named you as ‘transgressor’?’’[50]

‘Regarding Words of the Exalted: Surely, those who committed crimes (criminals) used to laugh at those who believed [83:29]. He said, ‘That is Al-Haris Bin Qays and some people with him. Whenever Ali-asws passed by them, they said, ‘Look at this one whom Muhammad-saww has chosen and selected from between People-asws of his-saww Household’. So, they were mocking and laughing.
فَإِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ فُتِحَ بَيْنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَ النَّارِ بَابٌ- فَعَلِيٌّ ع يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَى الْأَرَائِكِ مُتَّكِئٌ وَ يَقُولُ لَهُمْ هَلُمَّ لَكُمْ فَإِذَا جَاءُوا يُسَدُّ بَيْنَهُمُ الْبَابُ فَهُوَ كَذَلِكَ يَسْخَرُ مِنْهُمْ وَ يَضْحَكُ وَ هُوَ قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى فَالْيَوْمَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنَ الْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ- عَلَى الْأَرائِكِ يَنْظُرُونَ- هَلْ ثُوِّبَ الْكُفَّارُ ما كانُوا يَفْعَلُونَ.
When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, a door would be opened up between the Paradise and the Fire. On that day Ali-asws would be reclining upon the couch and saying to them: ‘Come!’ But, when they would come, the door would be closed between them. So, he would be mocking them like that and laughing; and it is the Word of the Exalted: So today, those who believe shall be laughing at the Kafirs [83:34] Upon the couches, they would be gazing [83:35] Would the Kafirs be Rewarded (except for) what they had been doing? [83:36]’’.[52]

‘From Abu Ja’far-asws regarding Words of the Exalted: O you who believe! Do not take your fathers and your brothers as friends if they love the Kufr over the Eman, [9:23]. He-asws said: ‘The Eman is Wilayah of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’’.[54]
الْبَاقِرُ ع وَ زَيْدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍ وَ مَنْ يَكْفُرْ بِالْإِيمانِ قَالَ بِوَلَايَةِ عَلِيٍّ ع.
Al Baqir-asws and Zayd son of Ali-asws (Bin Al-Husayn-asws): and the one who commits Kufr with the Eman [5:5]. He-asws said: ‘Wilayah of Ali-asws’’.[55]

Al-Baqir-asws and Al-Sadiq-asws regarding Words of the Exalted: Surely, those who commit Kufr would be Called out to: ‘Your despising Allah when you were called to the Eman is greater than your despising yourselves, therefore you committed Kufr [40:10], they-asws both said: ‘(Called) to Wilayah of Ali-asws’’.[56]

Al Sa’alby in his Tafseer, and it has been reported by Abu Salih, from Ibn Abbas,
‘Abdullah Bin Ubay and his companions falsely flattering with Ali-asws in the talk. Ali-asws said, ‘O Abdullah! Fear Allah-azwj and do not be hypocritical, for the hypocrite is the most evil creature of Allah-azwj!’ He said, ‘Shh, no, O Abu Al-Hassan-asws! By Allah-azwj, our Eman is like your-asws Eman’.

Then they separated. Abdullah said, ‘How do you view what I did?’ They praised upon him. So, it was Revealed: And when they are meeting those who believe, they are saying: We believe; [2:14] – the Verse’’.[57]

Tafseer Al Hazeyl, and Maqatil, from Muhammad Bin Al Hanafiya, in a lengthy Hadeeth, and the Hadeeth is brief –
‘but rather we were only mocking [2:14] with Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and his-asws companions. Allah-azwj the Exalted Said: Allah will be Mocking with them, [2:15] – meaning Recompense them in the Hereafter a Recompense for having mocked Amir Al-Momineen-asws.
قال ابن عباس و ذلك أنه إذا كان يوم القيامة أمر الله الخلق بالجواز على الصراط فيجوز المؤمنون إلى الجنة و يسقط المنافقون في جهنم فيقول الله يا مالك استهزئ بالمنافقين في جهنم
Ibn Abbas said, ‘And that is, when it will be the Day of Qiyamah, Allah-azwj will Command the creatures to cross over the Bridge. The Momineen would cross to the Paradise and the hypocrites would fall into Hell. Allah-azwj would Say: “O Maalik (keeper of Hell)!’ Mock with the hypocrites in Hell!”
فيفتح مالك بابا في جهنم إلى الجنة و يناديهم معشر المنافقين هاهنا هاهنا فاصعدوا من جهنم إلى الجنة فيسيح المنافقون في نار جهنم سبعين خريفا حتى إذا بلغوا إلى ذلك الباب و هموا بالخروج أغلقه دونهم
So Maalik would open a door in Hell to the Paradise and they (Momineen) would call out to them, ‘Community of hypocrites! Over here! Over here!’ They would climb from Hell to the Paradise. The hypocrites would swim (travel) in the fire of Hell for seventy epochs until when they reach that door and think of exiting, it would be locked down beside them.
و فتح لهم بابا إلى الجنة في موضع آخر فيناديهم من هذا الباب فأخرجوا إلى الجنة فيسيحون مثل الأول فإذا وصلوا إليه أغلق دونهم و يفتح في موضع آخر و هكذا أبد الآبدين.
And door would be opened for them in another place. They would be called at, ‘From this door!’ They would go out towards the Paradise and swim (travel) like the first time. When they arrive at it, it would be locked besides them, and (a door) would be opened in another place. And that is how it would be forever and ever!’’[58]

Al-Baqir-asws regarding His-azwj Words: The Religion in the Presence of Allah is Al-Islam [3:19]. He-asws said: ‘The submission to Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws with the Wilayah’’.[59]

Al-Baqir-asws and Al-Sadiq-asws regarding Words of the Exalted: Surely what you are being Promised would be proven true [51:5] And surely the Religion will transpire [51:6]. They-asws both said: ‘The religion is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’’.[60]

Al-Baqir-asws: Surely, those who believe and do righteous deeds, for them would be a unrestricted Recompense [41:8] – Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’. I-asws said: ‘So what would make you belie the Religion [95:7]’. He-asws said: ‘The religion is Amir Al-Momineen-asws’’.[61]
وَ عَنْهُ ع فِي قَوْلِهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ اصْطَفى لَكُمُ الدِّينَ فَلا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَ أَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ لِوَلَايَةِ عَلِيٍّ ع.

(The book) ‘Kashf Al Ghumma’, from what the honourable Al Hanbali extracted –
‘Words of the Exalted: Is the one who was a Momin like the one who was a transgressor? They are not equal! [32:18] – The Momin is Ali-asws, and the transgressor is Al-Waleed. He said, Except those who believe and are doing the righteous deeds, and enjoin each other with the Truth, and enjoin each other with the patience [103:3]. It is said it was Revealed regarding Ali-asws’’.[71]
و روى الحافظ أبو بكر بن مردويه بعدة طرق في قوله أَ فَمَنْ كانَ مُؤْمِناً كَمَنْ كانَ فاسِقاً المؤمن علي و الفاسق الوليد.
And it is reported by Al-Hafiz Abu Bakr Bin Mardawayh in a number of ways, regarding His-azwj Words: Is the one who was a Momin like the one who was a transgressor? They are not equal! [32:18] – The Momin is Ali-asws and the transgressor is Al-Waleed’’.[72]

And it is reported by Al Sa’alby and Al-Wahidy – It was Revealed regarding Ali-asws and regarding Al-Waleed Bin Uqba Bin Abu Mueet, brother of Usman to his mother, and that is there was a dispute between the two regarding something. Al-Waleed said to Ali-asws, ‘Be quiet, for you-asws are a child, and by Allah-azwj I am more eloquent that you-asws to tongue, and sharper of blade (killed more) and more sufficing for the battalion than you-asws’.
فقال له علي ع اسكت فإنك فاسق فأنزل الله سبحانه تصديقا لعلي ع- أَ فَمَنْ كانَ مُؤْمِناً كَمَنْ كانَ فاسِقاً يعني بالمؤمن عليا و بالفاسق الوليد.
Ali-asws said to him: ‘Be quiet, for you are a transgressor!’ So, Allah-azwj the Glorious Revealed in Ratification of Ali-asws: Is the one who was a Momin like the one who was a transgressor? They are not equal! [32:18] – meaning by the Momin, Ali-asws, and by the transgressor, Al-Waleed’’.[73]

Then he-saww turned towards us with his-saww face. He-saww said: ‘But, by Allah-azwj!

Tafseer Al Ayyashi – From Ammar Bin Suweyd,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said ‘Rasool-Allah-saww supplication for Amir Al-Momineen-asws at the end of his-saww Salat, raising his-saww voice with it making the people hear. He-saww said: ‘O Allah-azwj! Cause the cordiality for Ali-asws to descend into the chests of the Momineen-asws, and the awe and the might into the chests of the hypocrites!’
فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِلَى قَوْلِهِ وُدًّا قَالَ وَلَايَةُ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ هِيَ الْوُدُّ الَّذِي قَالَ اللَّهُ- وَ تُنْذِرَ بِهِ قَوْماً لُدًّا بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ
Allah-azwj Revealed: Surely, those who are believing – up to His-azwj Words: cordiality [19:96]. He-asws said: ‘Wilayah of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, it is the cordiality which Allah-azwj Said, and to warn by it a contentious people [19:97] – clan of Umayya’.
فَقَالَ رُمَعُ وَ اللَّهِ لَصَاعٌ مِنْ تَمْرٍ فِي شَنٍّ بَالٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِمَّا سَأَلَ مُحَمَّدٌ رَبَّهُ أَ فَلَا سَأَلَ مَلَكاً يَعْضُدُهُ أَوْ كَنْزاً يَسْتَظْهِرُ بِهِ عَلَى فَاقَتِهِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ عَشْرَ آيَاتٍ مِنْ هُودٍ أَوَّلُهَا فَلَعَلَّكَ تارِكٌ بَعْضَ ما يُوحى إِلَيْكَ.
Rum’a said, ‘By Allah-azwj! A Sa’a of dates in a torn decayed rag is more beloved to me than what Muhammad-saww has asked his-saww Lord-azwj. Could he-saww not have asked for an Angel to support him-saww, or treasure to prevail with it over his-saww destitution?’ So Allah-azwj Revealed regarding him ten Verses from (Surah) Hud. Its beginning is, So, perhaps you will leave part of what is Revealed unto you [11:12]’’.[112]

‘From Abu Abdullah-asws regarding Words of the Exalted: the Beneficent would Make cordiality to be for them [19:96]: ‘It is the cordiality which Allah-azwj Mentioned’.
قُلْتُ قَوْلُهُ فَإِنَّما يَسَّرْناهُ بِلِسانِكَ لِتُبَشِّرَ بِهِ الْمُتَّقِينَ وَ تُنْذِرَ بِهِ قَوْماً لُدًّا قَالَ إِنَّمَا يَسَّرَ اللَّهُ عَلَى لِسَانِ نَبِيِّهِ حِينَ أَقَامَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع عَلَماً فَبَشَّرَ بِهِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ أَنْذَرَ بِهِ الْكَافِرِينَ وَ هُمُ الْقَوْمُ الَّذِينَ ذَكَرَهُمُ اللَّهُ قَوْماً لُدًّا كُفَّاراً.
I said, ‘His-azwj Words: But rather We have Eased it by your tongue to give the glad tidings to the pious with it and to warn by it a contentious people [19:97]. He-asws said: ‘But rather, Allah-azwj Eased it upon the tongue of His-azwj Prophet-saww when he-saww nominated Amir Al-Momineen-asws as a flag, so he-saww gave glad tidings with him-asws to the Momineen and warned with him-asws the Kafirs, and they are the people Allah-azwj has Mentioned them as a contentious people [19:97] – i.e. Kafirs’’.[113]

Tafseer Al Qummi –
‘Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The reason for the Revelation of this Verse is that Amir Al-Momineen-asws was seated in front of Rasool-Allah-saww, and he-saww said to him-asws: ‘Say, O Ali-asws, ‘O Allah-azwj! Make cordiality to be for me-asws in the hearts of the Momineen!’’ So Allah-azwj the Exalted Revealed: Surely, those who are believing and are doing righteous deeds, the Beneficent would Make cordiality to be for them [19:96]’’.[114]

Kitab ‘Al Rowza’ – By the chains to Ibn Abbas having said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww held a hand of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and prayed four Cycles salat. When he-saww had greeted (completed), Rasool-Allah-saww raised his-saww hands towards the sky and said: ‘O Allah-azwj!

When he-asws had supplicated, Jibraeel-as descended and said: ‘Recite, O Muhammad-saww: Surely, those who are believing and are doing righteous deeds, the Beneficent would Make cordiality to be for them [19:96]’. So, the Prophet-saww recited it. The people were astounded from the quickness of the Answer.
فَقَالَ اعْلَمُوا أَنَّ الْقُرْآنَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَرْبَاعٍ رُبُعٌ فِينَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَ رُبُعٌ قِصَصٌ وَ أَمْثَالٌ وَ رُبُعٌ فَضَائِلُ وَ إِنْذَارٌ وَ رُبُعٌ أَحْكَامٌ وَ اللَّهُ أَنْزَلَ فِي عَلِيٍّ كَرَائِمَ الْقُرْآنِ.
He-saww said: ‘Know, that the Quran is in four quarters – a quarter is regarding us-asws People-asws of the Household, and a quarter is of stories and examples, and a quarter is of merits and warnings, and a quarter is of Ordinances. By Allah-azwj! The honours of the Quran are regarding Ali-asws’’.[120]

قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ نَعَيْتَ إِلَيَّ نَفْسَكَ فَيَا لَيْتَ نَفْسِي الْمُتَوَفَّاةُ قَبْلَ نَفْسِكَ قَالَ أَبَى اللَّهُ فِي عِلْمِهِ إِلَّا مَا يُرِيدُ
He-asws said: ‘I-asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! You-saww given to me-asws the news of your-saww own death, so if only my-asws soul can expire before your-saww soul!’ He-saww said: ‘Allah-azwj has Refused in His-azwj Knowledge except what He-azwj Wants’.
قَالَ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ لِي بِدَعَوَاتٍ يُصِينُنِي بَعْدَ وَفَاتِكَ قَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ ادْعُ لِنَفْسِكَ بِمَا تُحِبُّ وَ تَرْضَى حَتَّى أُؤَمِّنَ فَإِنَّ تَأْمِينِي لَكَ لَا يُرَدُّ
He-asws said: ‘Supplicate to Allah-azwj for me-asws with supplication He-azwj would Keep me-asws after your-saww expiry’. He-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! Supplicate for yourself-asws and be pleased until I-saww say ‘Ameen’, for if I-saww were to say: ‘Ameen’ for you-asws, He-azwj will not Reject’.
قَالَ فَدَعَا أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْ مَوَدَّتِي فِي قُلُوبِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص آمِينَ
He (Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws) said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws supplicated: ‘O Allah-azwj! Affirm my-asws cordiality in the hearts of the Momineen and the Mominaat up to the Day of Qiyamah’. Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Ameen!’
فَقَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ادْعُ فَدَعَا بِتَثْبِيتِ مَوَدَّتِهِ فِي قُلُوبِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ حَتَّى دَعَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ كُلَّمَا دَعَا دَعْوَةً قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص آمِينَ
He-saww said: ‘O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! Supplicate!’ He-asws supplicated with the affirmation of his-asws cordiality to be in the hearts of the Momineen and the Mominaat up to the Day of Qiyamah’, to the extent that he-asws supplicated three times. Every time he-asws supplicated, the Prophet-saww said: ‘Ameen!’
فَهَبَطَ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع فَقَالَ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَ عَمِلُوا الصَّالِحاتِ سَيَجْعَلُ لَهُمُ الرَّحْمنُ وُدًّا إِلَى آخِرِ السُّورَةِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص الْمُتَّقُونَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ شِيعَتُهُ.
Jibraeel-as descended and said: Surely, those who are believing and are doing righteous deeds, the Beneficent would Make cordiality to be for them [19:96] – up to the end of the Chapter. The Prophet-saww said: ‘The pious is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and his-asws Shias’’.[125]
11- وَ رَوَى الْحَافِظُ أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ فِي كِتَابِ مَا نَزَلَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ فِي عَلِيٍّ ع عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُظَفَّرِ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْمُبَارَكِ الْكُوفِيِّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُوسَى بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ ثَابِتِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو خَادِمِ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ ع عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: أَخَذَ النَّبِيُّ ص وَ نَحْنُ بِمَكَّةَ بِيَدَيْ عَلِيٍّ ع فَصَلَّى أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ عَلَى ثَبِيرٍ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ يَا أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ارْفَعْ يَدَيْكَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ ادْعُ رَبَّكَ وَ سَلْهُ يُعْطِكَ
And it is reported by Al Hafiz Abu Nueym in the book ‘Ma Nazal Min Al Qauran Fi Ali-asws’ – From Muhammad Al Muzaffar, from Zayd Bin Muhammad Al Mubarak Al Kufi, from Ahmad Bin Musa Bin Is’haq, from Al-Husayn Bin Sabit Bin Amro servant of Musa Bin Ja’far-asws, from his father, from Shu’ba, from Al Hakam, from Ikrimah (Bin Abu Jahl-la), from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘The Prophet-saww grabbed a hand of Ali-asws, and we were at Makkah, and he-saww prayed four Cycles Salat at Mina. Then he-saww raised his-saww hands towards the sky and said to Ali-asws: ‘O Abu Al-Hassan-asws! Raise your-asws hands towards the sky and supplicate to your-asws Lord-azwj and ask Him-azwj, He-azwj will Give you-asws’.
فَرَفَعَ عَلِيٌّ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَهْداً وَ اجْعَلْ لِي عِنْدَكَ وُدّاً فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى- إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَ عَمِلُوا الصَّالِحاتِ سَيَجْعَلُ لَهُمُ الرَّحْمنُ وُدًّا
Ali-asws raised his-asws hands towards the sky and he-asws said: ‘O Allah-azwj! Make a Pact to be for me-asws with You-azwj, and Make cordiality to be for me-asws with You-azwj!’ So, Allah-azwj the Exalted Revealed: Surely, those who are believing and are doing righteous deeds, the Beneficent would Make cordiality to be for them [19:96].
فَتَلَا النَّبِيُّ ص عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَعَجِبُوا مِنْ ذَلِكَ عَجَباً شَدِيداً فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص مِمَّ تَعْجَبُونَ إِنَّ الْقُرْآنَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَرْبَاعٍ فَرُبُعٌ فِينَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَ رُبُعٌ فِي أَعْدَائِنَا وَ رُبُعٌ حَلَالٌ وَ حَرَامٌ وَ رُبُعٌ فَرَائِضُ وَ أَحْكَامٌ وَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنْزَلَ فِي عَلِيٍّ كَرَائِمَ الْقُرْآنِ.
The Prophet-saww recited to his-saww companions and they were astounded from that with intense astonishment. The Prophet-saww said: ‘What are you wondering from? The Quran is in four quarters. A quarter is regarding us-asws, People-asws of the Household, and a quarter is regarding our-asws enemies, and a quarter is Permissible(s) and Prohibitions, and a quarter is Obligations and Ordinances, and that Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic has Revealed regarding Ali-asws honours of the Quran’’.[126]
باب 15 قوله تعالى وَ هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ مِنَ الْماءِ بَشَراً فَجَعَلَهُ نَسَباً وَ صِهْراً
CHAPTER 15 – And He it is Who Created a person from the water, so He Made for him relationships of lineage and marriage; [25:54]
1- فر، تفسير فرات بن إبراهيم عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَخْلَدٍ الْجُعْفِيُّ مُعَنْعَناً عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ مِنَ الْماءِ بَشَراً فَجَعَلَهُ نَسَباً وَ صِهْراً قَالَ خَلَقَ اللَّهُ نُطْفَةً بَيْضَاءَ مَكْنُونَةً فَجَعَلَهَا فِي صُلْبِ آدَمَ ثُمَّ نَقَلَهَا مِنْ صُلْبِ آدَمَ إِلَى صُلْبِ شَيْثٍ وَ مِنْ صُلْبِ شَيْثٍ إِلَى صُلْبِ أَنُوشَ وَ مِنْ صُلْبِ أَنُوشَ إِلَى صُلْبِ قَيْنَانَ حَتَّى تَوَارَثَتْهَا كِرَامُ الْأَصْلَابِ وَ مُطَهَّرَاتُ الْأَرْحَامِ حَتَّى جَعَلَهَا اللَّهُ فِي صُلْبِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ
Tafseer Furaat Bin Ibrahim – Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Makhlad Al Jufy transmitting from Ibn Abbas,
‘Regarding Words of the Exalted: And He it is Who Created a person from the water, so He Made for him relationships of lineage and marriage; [25:54], he said, ‘A white seed, hidden, He-azwj Made it to be in the Sulb of Adam-as, then Transferred it from the Sulb of Adam-as to the Sulb of Shees-as, and from Sulb of Shees-as to Sulb of Anoush-as, and from Sulb of Anoush-as to the Sulb of Canaan-as, until it was inherited by the honourable Sulbs and purified wombs, until Allah-azwj Made it to be in the Sulb of Abdul Muttalib-asws.
ثُمَّ قَسَمَهَا نِصْفَيْنِ فَأَلْقَى نِصْفَهَا إِلَى صُلْبِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَ نِصْفَهَا إِلَى صُلْبِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ هِيَ سُلَالَةٌ فَوُلِدَ مِنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُحَمَّدٌ ص وَ مِنْ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَلِيٌّ ع فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى- وَ هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ مِنَ الْماءِ بَشَراً فَجَعَلَهُ نَسَباً وَ صِهْراً زَوْجَ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ مُحَمَّدٍ
Then He-azwj Divided it into two halves. He-azwj Cast half of it into the Sulb of Abdullah and half of it to the Sulb of Abu Talib-asws, and it is the conclusion. So, Muhammad-saww was born from Abdullah-as and Ali-asws from Abu Talib-asws, and that is the Word of Allah-azwj the Exalted: And He it is Who Created a person from the water, so He Made for him relationships of lineage and marriage; [25:54], husband-asws of (Syeda) Fatima-asws, daughter-asws of Muhammad-saww.
فَعَلِيٌّ مِنْ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ مُحَمَّدٌ مِنْ عَلِيٍّ وَ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ وَ فَاطِمَةُ نَسَبٌ وَ عَلِيٌّ الصِّهْرُ.
So, Ali-asws is from Muhammad-saww and Muhammad-saww is from Ali-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws and (Syeda) Fatima-asws are ‘lineage’, and Ali-asws is the ‘marriage’’’.[127]

‘I heard Ibn Sirreen regarding Words of the Exalted: And He it is Who Created a person from the water, so He Made for him relationships of lineage and marriage; [25:54]. He said, ‘It was Revealed regarding the Prophet-saww and Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, husband-asws of (Syeda) Fatima-asws Ali-asws, and he-asws is son-asws of his-saww uncle, and husband-asws of his-saww daughter, so he-asws was ‘lineage’ and ‘marriage’, and your Lord was always Powerful [25:54]’’.[128]

‘Regarding Words of the Exalted: And He it is Who Created a person from the water, so He Made for him relationships of lineage and marriage; [25:54]. He said, ‘It was Revealed regarding the Prophet-saww when Ali-asws married his-saww daughter-asws, and he-asws is son-asws of his-saww uncle-as, so there was for him-asws, lineage and marriage’’.[129]
4- وَ قَالَ أَيْضاً حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ رَجَاءِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ نَائِلِ بْنِ نَجِيحٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ الْجُعْفِيِّ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ قَالَ خَلَقَ اللَّهُ آدَمَ وَ خَلَقَ نُطْفَةً مِنَ الْمَاءِ فَمَزَجَهَا ثُمَّ أَباً فَأَباً حَتَّى أَوْدَعَهَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ ع ثُمَّ أُمّاً فَأُمّاً مِنْ طَاهِرِ الْأَصْلَابِ إِلَى مُطَهَّرَاتِ الْأَرْحَامِ حَتَّى صَارَتْ إِلَى عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ
And he said as well, ‘It is narrated to us by Abdul Aziz Bin Yahya, from Al Mugheira Bin Muhammad, from Raja’a Bin Salama, from Na’il Bin Najeeh, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir Al Jufy, from Ikrimah (Bin Abu Jahl-la, from Ibn Abbas,
‘Regarding this Verse, he said, ‘Allah-azwj Created Adam-as and Created a seed from water. He-azwj Mixed it. Then He-azwj (Deposited it into) a father (to) a father, until it was deposited into Ibrahim-as. Then mother (to) a mother, from clean Sulbs to purified laps until it came to be to Abdul Muttalib-asws.
فَفَرَّقَ ذَلِكَ النُّورَ فِرْقَتَيْنِ فِرْقَةً إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَوَلَدَ مُحَمَّداً ص وَ فِرْقَةً إِلَى أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَوَلَدَ عَلِيّاً ع ثُمَّ أَلَّفَ اللَّهُ النِّكَاحَ بَيْنَهُمَا فَزَوَّجَ اللَّهُ عَلِيّاً بِفَاطِمَةَ ع فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ مِنَ الْماءِ بَشَراً فَجَعَلَهُ نَسَباً وَ صِهْراً وَ كانَ رَبُّكَ قَدِيراً.
That Noor divided into two segments -a segment to Abdullah, so Muhammad-saww was Gifted (to his-saww parents), and a segment to Abu Talib-asws, so Ali-asws was Gifted (to his-asws parents). Then Allah-azwj Composed the marriage between the two, so Allah-azwj got Ali-asws to be married with (Syeda) Fatima-asws. Therefore, due to that are the Words of Mighty and Majestic: And He it is Who Created a person from the water, so He Made for him relationships of lineage and marriage; and your Lord was always Powerful [25:54]’’.[130]
5- كشف، كشف الغمة مما رواه أبو بكر بن مردويه وَ هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ مِنَ الْماءِ بَشَراً فَجَعَلَهُ نَسَباً وَ صِهْراً هو علي و فاطمة ع.
(The book) ‘Kashf Al Ghumma’ – From what is reported by Abu Bakr Bin Mardawayh –
‘And He it is Who Created a person from the water, so He Made for him relationships of lineage and marriage [25:54] – It is Ali-asws and (Syeda) Fatima-asws’’.[131]

(The book) ‘Rowza Al Waizeen’ –
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Created a white seed, hidden. He-azwj Transferred it from a Sulb to a Sulb, until the seed was transferred to the Sulb of Abdul Muttalib-asws. It was Made to be two halves, so half of it came to be in Abdullah-asws and half of it in Abu Talib-asws.
فَأَنَا مِنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَ عَلِيٌّ مِنْ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ مِنَ الْماءِ بَشَراً الْآيَةَ.
So, I-saww am from Abdullah-asws, and Ali-asws is from Abu Talib-asws, and that is the Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: And He it is Who Created a person from the water, [25:54] – the Verse’’.[132]

Tafseer Al-Qummi – Look how they are striking examples for you! So they have gone astray and cannot find a way [17:48]. He said, ‘To Wilayah of Ali-asws, and Ali-asws, he-asws is the way.

(The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ahub –
‘Abu Al-Hassan Al-Maazy (7th Imam-asws) having said: ‘When the hypocrites come to you, – with the Wilayah of Ali-asws, they say, ‘We testify that you are a Rasool of Allah’. And Allah Knows that you are indeed His Rasool, and Allah Testifies that the hypocrites are lying [63:1] They are taking their oaths as a shield, so they are blocking from the Way of Allah. – and the way, it is the successor-asws – It is evil what they have been doing [63:2].
ذلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ آمَنُوا بِرِسَالَتِكَ وَ كَفَرُوا بِوَلَايَةِ وَصِيِّكَ فَطَبَعَ اللَّهُ عَلى قُلُوبِهِمْ فَهُمْ لا يَفْقَهُونَ-
That is because they believed – in your-asws being a Rasool-saww – then they disbelieved, – in the Wilayah of your-saww successor-asws – so Allah Sealed upon their hearts, therefore they are not understanding [63:3].
وَ إِذا قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَعالَوْا يَسْتَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ارْجِعُوا إِلَى وَلَايَةِ عَلِيٍّ يَسْتَغْفِرْ لَكُمُ النَّبِيُّ مِنْ ذُنُوبِكُمْ- لَوَّوْا رُؤُسَهُمْ وَ رَأَيْتَهُمْ يَصُدُّونَ عَنْ وَلَايَةِ عَلِيٍّ- وَ هُمْ مُسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَلَيْهِ.
And when it is said to them: ‘Come! Rasool-Allah will seek Forgiveness for you’, – return to the Wilayah of Ali-asws, the Prophet-saww would seek Forgiveness for you from your sins –they turn back they heads, and you will see them blocking (others), – from the Wilayah of Ali-asws – and they are being arrogant [63:5] – upon it’’.[141]

Ibn Abbas – Regarding His-azwj Words: So who is more unjust than the one who fabricates a lie upon Allah [7:37] – the Verses. The Way of Allah-azwj in this place is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. His-azwj Words: And it is on an enduring way [15:76], in the Hadeeth, he-asws is the successor-asws after the Prophet-saww’’.[143]

Al-Baqireyn (5th and 6th Imam-asws) – Guide us to the Straight Path [1:6], they-asws both said: ‘Religion of Allah-azwj which Jibraeel-as descended with unto Muhammad-saww. The path of those You have Bestowed Bounties upon – So, You-azwj Guided them with Al-Islam, and by Wilayah Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and was not Angered upon them and they did not stray – other than of those You are Wrathful upon – the Jews, and the Christians, and the doubts, the ones not recognising the Imamate of Amir Al-Momineen-asws – nor of the straying ones [1:7] – away from the Imamate of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’’.[144]

Ali Bin Abdullah Bin Abbas, from his father,
‘And Zayd son of Ali-asws (Bin Al-Husayn-asws) – And Allah Calls to the House of Al-Salām – meaning the Paradise by it – and Guides the one He Desires, to the Straight Path [10:25] – meaning by it Wilayah of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’’.[145]

(The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub – Jabir Bin Abdullah,
‘The Prophet-saww prepared his-saww companions in his-saww presence when he-saww said, and gestured by his-saww hand towards Ali-asws: ‘This is the Straight Path [19:36], so follow him-asws. The Prophet-saww said: ‘He-asws will suffice you, O my-saww enemies!’’[146]

Ibn Abbas – Rasool-Allah-saww was giving judgment and Ali-asws was in front of him-saww, facing him-saww, and there was a man on his-asws right and a man on his-asws left. He-saww said: ‘The right and the left are a straying, and the even path, is the middle’. Then he-saww gestured by his-saww hand: ‘And this is the path of Ali-asws, straight, so follow it!’’[147]
الْحَسَنُ قَالَ: خَرَجَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ فَوَعَظَ النَّاسَ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَيْنَ الصِّرَاطُ الْمُسْتَقِيمُ فَقَالَ الصِّرَاطُ الْمُسْتَقِيمُ طَرَفُهُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ نَاحِيَتُهُ عِنْدَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلِيٍّ وَ حَافَتَاهُ دُعَاةٌ فَمَنِ اسْتَقَامَتْ لَهُ الْجَادَّةُ أَتَى مُحَمَّداً وَ مَنْ زَاغَ عَنِ الْجَادَّةِ تَبِعَ الدُّعَاةَ.
Al-Hassan said,
‘Ibn Masoud went out and preached to the people. A man stood up to him and said, ‘O Abdul Rahman! Where is the straight path?’ He said, ‘The straight path, its (one) end is in the Paradise, and its corner is with Muhammad-saww and Ali-asws, and its two edges are callers. So, the one for whom the middle is established for him, would come to Muhammad-saww, and one who deviates from the middle, would follow the (two) callers’’.[148]

Al Sumali –
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws: Therefore adhere with that which is Revealed unto you, surely you are upon a Straight Path [43:43]. He-asws said: ‘You-saww are upon the Wilayah of Ali-asws, and he-asws is the straight path; and the meaning of that is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws is the path to Allah-azwj, just as it tends to be said, ‘So and so is a door to the sultan’, when one can arrive to the sultan through him.
ثُمَّ إِنَّ الصِّرَاطَ هُوَ الَّذِي عَلَيْهِ عَلِيٌّ ع يَدُلُّكَ وُضُوحاً عَلَى ذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ صِراطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ يَعْنِي نِعْمَةَ الْإِسْلَامِ لِقَوْلِهِ وَ أَسْبَغَ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعَمَهُ وَ الْعِلْمَ وَ عَلَّمَكَ ما لَمْ تَكُنْ تَعْلَمُ
Then the path, it is that which Ali-asws is upon, clearly evidencing upon that by His-azwj Words: The path of those You have Bestowed Bounties upon [1:7] – meaning Favour of Al-Islam, due to His-azwj Words: and Bestowed upon you His Bounties, [31:20], and the knowledge, and Taught you what you did not happen to know; [4:113].
وَ الذُّرِّيَّةَ الطَّيِّبَةَ- إِنَّ اللَّهَ اصْطَفى آدَمَ الْآيَةَ وَ إِصْلَاحَ الزَّوْجَاتِ لِقَوْلِهِ- فَاسْتَجَبْنا لَهُ وَ وَهَبْنا لَهُ يَحْيى وَ أَصْلَحْنا لَهُ زَوْجَهُ فَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ ع فِي هَذِهِ النِّعَمِ فِي أَعْلَى ذُرَاهَا.
And the goodly offspring, Surely Allah chose Adam [3:33] – the Verse. And the corrections of the spouses are His-azwj Words: So We Answered him and Gifted Yahya to him and We Corrected his wife for him. [21:90]. So, Ali-asws was in this Favour, in the top of its peak’’.[149]

وَ لِذَلِكَ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ قُلْ تَمَتَّعْ بِكُفْرِكَ قَلِيلًا إِنَّكَ مِنْ أَصْحابِ النَّارِ يَعْنِي بِإِمْرَتِكَ عَلَى النَّاسِ بِغَيْرِ حَقٍّ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَ رَسُولِهِ
And for that are the Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: ‘Enjoy with your Kufr for a little while! You will be from the inmates of the Fire’ [39:8], meaning your influence which you have over the people with any right from Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic or from His-azwj Rasool-saww’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع ثُمَّ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَطَفَ الْقَوْلَ عَلَى عَلِيٍّ ع يُخْبِرُ بِحَالِهِ وَ فَضْلِهِ عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ أَمَّنْ هُوَ قانِتٌ آناءَ اللَّيْلِ ساجِداً وَ قائِماً يَحْذَرُ الْآخِرَةَ وَ يَرْجُوا رَحْمَةَ رَبِّهِ قُلْ هَلْ يَسْتَوِي الَّذِينَ يَعْلَمُونَ [أَنَ] مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللَّهِ- وَ الَّذِينَ لا يَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بَلْ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّهُ ساحِرٌ كَذَّابٌ- إِنَّما يَتَذَكَّرُ أُولُوا الْأَلْبابِ وَ هُمْ شِيعَتُنَا ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع هَذَا تَأْوِيلُهُ يَا عَمَّارُ.
He (the narrator) said: ‘Then Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘Then Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Spoke Sympathetically with regards to Ali-asws Informing him-asws of his-asws situation, and his-asws merits in the Presence of Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted, so He-azwj Said: Safe is He who is obedient during the hours of the night, performing Sajdah and standing, being cautious of the Hereafter and hoping for the Mercy of his Lord. Say: ‘Are they equal, those who do not know – that Muhammad is the Rasool-Allah-saww, and (are saying) that Muhammad-saww is a lying sorcerer, But rather, the ones of the understanding will heed [39:9]. Then Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘This is its explanation, O Ammar’’.[172]
باب 18 آية النجوى و أنه لم يعمل بها غيره ع
CHAPTER 18 – THE VERSE OF WHISPERING, AND IT WAS NOT ACTED UPON WITH BY ANYONE OTHER THAN HIM-asws
1- كشف، كشف الغمة أورد الثعلبي و الواحدي و غيرهما من علماء التفسير أن الأغنياء أكثروا مناجاة النبي ص و غلبوا الفقراء على المجالس عنده حتى كره رسول الله ص ذلك و استطالة جلوسهم و كثرة مناجاتهم فأنزل الله تعالى يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذا ناجَيْتُمُ الرَّسُولَ فَقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقَةً ذلِكَ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ وَ أَطْهَرُ
(The book) ‘Kashf al Ghumma’ – Reported by Al Sa’alby, and al Wahidy, and other from the scholars of interpretation –
‘The rich people used to frequently consult the Prophet-saww and overwhelmed upon the poor people gathering in his-saww presence to the extent that Rasool-Allah-saww disliked that and he-saww prolonged their gathering and frequented their consulting. So, Allah-azwj Revealed: O you those who believe! Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, then give something in charity before your consultation. That would be better for you and purer. [58:12].
فأمر بالصدقة أمام المناجاة و أما أهل العسرة فلم يجدوا و أما الأغنياء فبخلوا و خف ذلك على رسول الله ص و خف ذلك الزحام و غلبوا على حبه و الرغبة في مناجاته حب الحطام و اشتد على أصحابه فنزلت الآية التي بعدها راشقة لهم بسهام الملام ناسخة بحكمها حيث أحجم من كان دأبه الإقدام.
So, he-saww instructed with the charity being given before the consultation. And as for the people of poverty, they could not find, and as for the rich, they were miserly and that was light upon Rasool-Allah-saww and traffic of that crowd lightened, they overcame upon his-saww love and desire in consulting him-saww by love for the debris (of the world), and it was difficult upon his-saww companions. So, the Verse which is after it, was Revealed as a stabbing to them with the arrows of blame, Abrogating its rule when the ones who were constantly coming forward, had withheld’’.[173]
وَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع إِنَّ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ لآَيَةً مَا عَمِلَ بِهَا أَحَدٌ قَبْلِي وَ لَا يَعْمَلُ أَحَدٌ بِهَا بَعْدِي وَ هِيَ آيَةُ الْمُنَاجَاةِ فَإِنَّهَا لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ كَانَ لِي دِينَارٌ فَبِعْتُهُ بِدَرَاهِمَ وَ كُنْتُ إِذَا نَاجَيْتُ الرَّسُولَ تَصَدَّقْتُ حَتَّى فَنِيَتْ فَنُسِخَتْ بِقَوْلِهِ- أَ أَشْفَقْتُمْ أَنْ تُقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقاتٍ الْآيَةَ.
And Ali-asws said: ‘There is a Verse in the Book of Allah-azwj, no one acted with it before me-asws nor did anyone act with it after me-asws, and it is the Verse of consultation, for when it was Revealed, there was a Dinar for me-asws, so I-asws changed it into Dirhams, and whenever I-asws used to consult the Rasool-saww, I-asws gave in charity until these were depleted. Then it was Abrogated by His-azwj Words: Are you fearing sending forth charities before your consultations? [58:13] – the Verse’’.[174]
وَ نَقَلَ الثَّعْلَبِيُّ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ دَعَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ مَا تَرَى تَرَى دِينَاراً فَقُلْتُ لَا يُطِيقُونَهُ قَالَ فَكَمْ قُلْتُ حَبَّةً أَوْ شَعِيرَةً قَالَ إِنَّكَ لَزَهِيدٌ فَنَزَلَتْ- أَ أَشْفَقْتُمْ أَنْ تُقَدِّمُوا الزَّهِيدَ الْقَلِيلَ
And it is transmitted by Al Sa’alby who said,
‘When it was Revealed, Rasool-Allah-saww called me-asws and said: ‘What is your-asws view? Do you see a Dinar (given in charity as being appropriate)?’ I-asws said: ‘They will not tolerate it’. He-saww said: ‘So, how much?’ I-asws said: ‘Some grain or barley’. He-saww said: ‘You-asws are an ascetic’. So it was Revealed: Are you fearing sending forth charities [58:13] – the petty, the little.
وَ كَأَنَّهُ يُرِيدُ مُقَلِّلٌ-
| إِذَا انْسَكَبَتْ دُمُوعٌ فِي خُدُودٍ- | تَبَيَّنَ مَنْ بَكَى مِمَّنْ تَبَاكَى. |
And it is as if Muqallil intended (in a couplet), ‘When the tears are shed in the cheeks, it become clear one who is crying from the one who is making cry’’.[175]
وَ قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ ثَلَاثٌ كُنَّ لِعَلِيٍّ ع لَوْ أَنَّ لِي وَاحِدَةً مِنْهُنَّ كَانَتْ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ حُمْرِ النَّعَمِ تَزْوِيجُهُ بِفَاطِمَةَ وَ إِعْطَاؤُهُ الرَّايَةَ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ وَ آيَةُ النَّجْوَى.
And Ibn Umar said, ‘Three (things) had been for Ali-asws, if even one of these were to be for me, it would have been more beloved to me than an expensive camel – his-asws being married to (Syeda) Fatima-asws, and his-asws been given the flag on the day of Khyber, and the Verse of consultation’’.[176]
أَقُولُ رَوَى الطَّبْرِسِيُّ مِثْلَ تِلْكَ الْأَخْبَارِ عَلَى هَذَا التَّرْتِيبِ ثُمَّ قَالَ قَالَ مُجَاهِدٌ وَ قَتَادَةُ لَمَّا نُهُوا عَنْ مُنَاجَاتِهِ حَتَّى يَتَصَدَّقُوا لَمْ يُنَاجِهِ إِلَّا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع قَدَّمَ دِينَاراً فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا ثُمَّ نَزَلَتِ الرُّخْصَةُ.
-I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘It is reported by Al Tabarsy similar to those reported upon this sequence. Then he said, ‘Mujahid and Qatadah said,
‘When it had been Prohibited from consulting him-saww until they would give in charity, no one consulted him-saww except Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. He-asws advanced a Dinar and gave in charity with it. Then the allowance was Revealed’’.[177]
2- كشف، كشف الغمة العز المحدث الحنبلي: قوله تعالى يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذا ناجَيْتُمُ الرَّسُولَ فَقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقَةً نزلت في علي ع.
(The book) ‘Kashf Al Ghumma’ – The honourable narrator Al Hanbali –
‘Words of the Exalted: O you those who believe! Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, then give something in charity before your consultation. [58:12] – it was Revealed regarding Ali-asws’’.[178]
وَ رَوَى فِي الْمُسْتَدْرَكِ عَنْ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذا ناجَيْتُمُ الرَّسُولَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى حَرَّمَ كَلَامَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَإِذَا أَرَادَ الرَّجُلُ أَنْ يُكَلِّمَهُ تَصَدَّقَ بِدِرْهَمٍ ثُمَّ كَلَّمَهُ بِمَا يُرِيدُ فَكَفَّ النَّاسُ عَنْ كَلَامِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ بَخِلُوا أَنْ يَتَصَدَّقُوا قَبْلَ كَلَامِهِ قَالَ وَ تَصَدَّقَ عَلِيٌّ ع وَ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ غَيْرُهُ.
And it is reported in (the book) ‘Al Mustadrak’ – from Abu Nueym, by his chain from Abu Salih, from Ibn Abbas,
‘O you those who believe! Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, [58:12]. He said, ‘Allah-azwj the Exalted Prohibited talking to Rasool-Allah-saww. So, whenever the man wanted to speak to him-asws, he had to give in charity with a Dirham, then speak to him-saww with what he wanted. So, the people refrained from talking to Rasool-Allah-saww and were miserly with they giving charity before speaking to him-saww. And Ali-asws gave in charity. No one from the Muslims did that apart from him-asws’’.[179]
وَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ فَمَا عَمِلَ بِهَا أَحَدٌ غَيْرِي ثُمَّ نُسِخَتْ.
And by his chain from Mujahid who said,
‘Ali-asws said: ‘This Verse was Revealed, but no one acted with it apart from me-asws. Then it was Abrogated’’.[180]
وَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذا ناجَيْتُمُ الرَّسُولَ قَالَ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَا تَقُولُ فِي دِينَارٍ قُلْتُ لَا يُطِيقُونَهُ قَالَ كَمْ قُلْتُ شَعِيرَةً قَالَ إِنَّكَ لَزَهِيدٌ
And by his chain from Ali Bin Alqamah,
‘From Ali-asws having said: ‘When this Verse was Revealed: ‘O you those who believe! Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, [58:12], Rasool-Allah-saww said to me-asws: ‘What are you-asws saying regarding one Dinar (to be given in charity before consultation)?’ I-asws said: ‘They will not tolerate it’. He-saww said: ‘How much?’ I-asws said: ‘Some barley’. He-saww said: ‘You-asws are an ascetic’.
فَنَزَلَتْ- أَ أَشْفَقْتُمْ أَنْ تُقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقاتٍ الْآيَةَ قَالَ فَبِي خَفَّفَ اللَّهُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ فَلَمْ يَنْزِلْ فِي أَحَدٍ قَبْلِي وَ لَمْ يَنْزِلْ فِي أَحَدٍ بَعْدِي.
So, it was Revealed: Are you fearing sending forth charities before your consultations? [58:13] – the Verse. He-asws said: ‘Due to me-asws, Allah-azwj Lightened from this community. It was not Revealed regarding anyone before me-asws, and was not Revealed regarding anyone after me-asws’’.[181]
3- فس، تفسير القمي يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذا ناجَيْتُمُ الرَّسُولَ فَقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقَةً قَالَ إِذَا سَأَلْتُمْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَاجَةً فَتَصَدَّقُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيِ حَاجَتِكُمْ لِيَكُونَ أَقْضَى لِحَوَائِجِكُمْ فَلَمْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ فَإِنَّهُ تَصَدَّقَ بِدِينَارٍ وَ نَاجَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ بِعَشْرِ نَجَوَاتٍ.
Tafseer Al-Qummi – O you those who believe! Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, then give something in charity before your consultation. [58:12]. He said, ‘Whenever you ask Rasool-Allah-saww for a need, then give in charity before (asking) for your needs for it to be a fulfilment of your needs. But no one did that except Amir Al-Momineen-asws. He-asws gave in charity a Dinar and consulted Rasool-Allah-saww with ten consultations’’.[182]
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَمَاعَةَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ إِذا ناجَيْتُمُ الرَّسُولَ فَقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقَةً قَالَ قَدَّمَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْوَاهُ صَدَقَةً ثُمَّ نَسَخَهَا قَوْلُهُ- أَ أَشْفَقْتُمْ أَنْ تُقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقاتٍ.
It is narrated to us by Ahmad Bin Ziyad, from Al-Hassan Bin Muhammad Bin Sama’at, from Safwan, from Ibn Muskan, from Abu Baseer,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘I asked him-asws about Words of Allah-azwj: O you those who believe! Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, then give something in charity before your consultation. [58:12]. He-asws said: ‘Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, before his-asws consultation, advanced charity. Then it was Abrogated by His-azwj Words: ‘Are you fearing sending forth charities before your consultations? [58:13]’’.[183]
وَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْحَسَنِيُّ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ خُنَيْسٍ عَنْ صَبَّاحٍ عَنْ لَيْثِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ إِنَّ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ لآَيَةً مَا عَمِلَ بِهَا أَحَدٌ قَبْلِي وَ لَا يَعْمَلُ بِهَا أَحَدٌ بَعْدِي- آيَةَ النَّجْوَى إِنَّهُ كَانَ لِي دِينَارٌ فَبِعْتُهُ بِعَشَرَةِ دَرَاهِمَ فَجَعَلْتُ أُقَدِّمُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ كُلِّ نَجْوَةٍ أُنَاجيهَا النَّبِيَّ دِرْهَماً
And it is narrated to us by Abdul Rahman Bin Muhammad Al Hasany, from Al-Husayn Bin Saeed, from Muhammad Bin Marwan, from Ubeyd Bin Huneys, from Sabbah, from Lays Bin Abu Suleym, from Mujahid who said,
‘Ali-asws said: ‘There is a Verse in the Book of Allah-azwj, neither did anyone act with it before me-asws nor did anyone act with it after me-asws – the Verse of consultation. There was a Dinar for me-asws, so I-asws exchanged it for ten Dirhams, and went on to advance one Dirham before every consultation I-asws consulted the Prophet-saww’.
قَالَ فَنَسَخَتْهَا قَوْلُهُ- أَ أَشْفَقْتُمْ أَنْ تُقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقاتٍ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ وَ اللَّهُ خَبِيرٌ بِما تَعْمَلُونَ.
He-asws said: ‘It was Abrogated by His-azwj Words: Are you fearing sending forth charities before your consultations? [58:13] – up to His-azwj Words: and Allah is Aware of what you are doing [58:13]’’.[184]
4- عم، إعلام الورى عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع آيَةٌ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ لَمْ يَعْمَلْ أَحَدٌ بِهَا قَبْلِي وَ لَا يَعْمَلُ بِهَا أَحَدٌ بَعْدِي آيَةُ النَّجْوَى كَانَ عِنْدِي دِينَارٌ فَبِعْتُهُ بِعَشَرَةِ دَرَاهِمَ فَكُلَّمَا أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أُنَاجِيَ النَّبِيَّ تَصَدَّقْتُ بِدِرْهَمٍ ثُمَّ نُسِخَتْ بِقَوْلِهِ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ.
(The book) ‘Alam Al Wara’ – from Mujahid who said,
‘Ali-asws said: ‘There is a Verse from the Quran no one had acted with it before me-asws nor did anyone act with it after me-asws – the Verse of consultation. There was a Dinar with me-asws, so I-asws exchanged it for ten Dirham. So, every time I-asws consulted the Prophet-saww, I-asws gave in charity with a Dirham. Then it was Abrogated by His-azwj Words: But if you cannot not find (the means), then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful [58:12]’’.[185]
وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى بِي خَفَّفَ اللَّهُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ فَلَمْ يَنْزِلْ فِي أَحَدٍ بَعْدِي.
And in another report – Due to me-asws Allah-azwj Lightened from this community, and it was not Revealed regarding anyone after me-asws’’.[186]
وَ رَوَى السُّدِّيُّ عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: كَانَ النَّاسُ يُنَاجُونَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فِي الْخَلَإِ إِذَا كَانَتْ لِأَحَدِهِمْ حَاجَةٌ فَشَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَفَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ نَاجَاهُ سِرّاً أَنْ يَتَصَدَّقَ بِصَدَقَةٍ فَكَفُّوا عَنْهُ وَ شَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ.
And it is reported by Al Sudy, from Abu Malik, from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘The people were consulting Rasool-Allah-saww in private, whenever one of them had a need. That was grievous upon the Prophet-saww, so Allah-azwj Imposed upon the one who consulted secretly that he should give something in charity. But, they refrained from him-asws (instead), and that was grievous upon them (to give charity)’’.[187]
5- يف، الطرائف فِي الْجَمْعِ بَيْنَ الصِّحَاحِ السِّتَّةِ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبُخَارِيُ قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى إِذا ناجَيْتُمُ الرَّسُولَ فَقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقَةً نَسَخَتْهَا آيَةٌ فَإِذْ لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا وَ تابَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمْ قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيٌّ ع مَا عَمِلَ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ غَيْرِي وَ بِي خَفَّفَ اللَّهُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ أَمْرَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ.
(The book) ‘Al Taraaif’ – In (the book) ‘Jam’a Bayn Al Sihaah Sitta’ – Abu Abdullah Al Bukhari,
‘Words of the Exalted: Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, then give something in charity before your consultation. [58:12]. It was Abrogated by the Verse: So when you did not do so, and Allah Turned to you. [58:13]. Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws said: ‘No one acted with this Verse apart from me-asws, and due to me-asws, Allah-azwj Lightened from this community the Command of this Verse’’.[188]
وَ وَجَدْتُ فِي كِتَابٍ عَتِيقٍ رِوَايَةَ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ الزَّاهِدِ فِي تَفْسِيرِ كَلَامٍ لِعَلِيٍّ ع قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَعَ النَّجْوَى دَعَا النَّبِيُّ ص عَلِيّاً فَقَالَ مَا تُقَدِّمُونَ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ النَّجْوَى قَالَ يُقَدِّمُ أَحَدُهُمْ حَبَّةً مِنَ الْحِنْطَةِ فَمَا فَوْقَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمُصْطَفَى ص إِنَّكَ لَزَهِيدٌ أَيْ فَقِيرٌ
And it is found in the book ‘Ateeq’, a report of Abu Umeyr Al Zahid,
‘In the interpretation of the speech of Ali-asws, said, ‘When the Verse of charity with the consultation was Revealed, the Prophet-saww called Ali-asws and he-saww said: ‘What are you all advancing as charity before the consultation?’ He-asws said: ‘One of them would be would be advancing grain of wheat and what is above that’. Al-Mustafa-saww said to him-asws: ‘You-asws are ascetic’ – i.e., poor.
فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَجَاءَ عَلِيٌّ فِي حَاجَةٍ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ وَ النَّاسُ قَدِ اجْتَمَعُوا فَوَضَعَ دِينَاراً ثُمَّ تَكَلَّمَ وَ مَا كَانَ يَمْلِكُ غَيْرُهُ قَالَ تَخَلَّى النَّاسُ ثُمَّ خَفَّفَ عَنْهُمْ بِرَفْعِ الصَّدَقَةِ.
Ibn Abbas said, ‘Ali-asws came regarding a need after that time, and the people had gathered. He-asws placed a Dinar, then spoke, and no one apart from him-asws happened to own it. The people dispersed. Then it was Lightened from them, raising the charity’’.[189]

‘Regarding Words of Mighty and Majestic: O you those who believe! Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, then give something in charity before your consultation. [58:12]. He said, ‘It was Revealed regarding Ali-asws in particular. There was a Dinar for him, so he-asws exchanged it for ten Dirhams. Every time he-asws consulted him-saww, he-asws advanced a Dirham (in charity), until he-asws had consulted him-saww ten times. Then it was Abrogated. So, no one acted with it before him-asws, nor after him-asws’’.[190]

(The books) ‘Kunz Jamie Al Fawaaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat Al Zaahira’ – Muhammad Bin Al Abbas, from Ali Bin Abbas, from Muhammad Bin Marwan, from Ibrahim Bin Al Hakam Bin Zuheyr, from his father, from Al Sudy, from Abd Khayr,
‘From Ali-asws having said: ‘I-asws was the first one to consult Rasool-Allah-saww. There was a Dinar in my-asws possession, so I-asws exchanged it for (ten) Dirhams, and spoke to Rasool-Allah-saww ten time. Every time I-asws wanted to consult him-saww, I-asws gave one Dirham in charity.
فَشَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَى أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ مَا يَأْلُو مَا يَنْجَشُ لِابْنِ عَمِّهِ حَتَّى نَسَخَهَا اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَقَالَ أَ أَشْفَقْتُمْ أَنْ تُقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقاتٍ إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ
That was grievous upon the companions of Rasool-Allah-saww. The hypocrites said, ‘How much he-saww is consulting to the son-asws of his-saww uncle-as!’ – until Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Abrogated it. He-azwj Said: Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, then give something in charity before your consultation. [58:12] – up to the end of the Verse.
ثُمَّ قَالَ ع فَكُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ وَ آخِرَ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا فَلَمْ يَعْمَلْ بِهَا أَحَدٌ قَبْلِي وَ لَا بَعْدِي.
Then he-asws said: ‘I-asws was the first one to act with this Verse and the last one to act with it. No one acted with it before me-asws nor after me-asws’’.[191]

(The books) ‘Kunz Jamie Al Fawaaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat Al Zaahira’ – Muhammad Bin Al Abbas, from Abdul Aziz Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Zakariya, from Ayoub Bin Suleyman, from Muhammad Bin Marwan, from Al Kalby, from Abu Salih, from Ibn Abbas,
‘Regarding Words of Exalted: O you those who believe! Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, then give something in charity before your consultation. [58:12]. He said, ‘It Prohibited the talking to Rasool-Allah-saww (without having given charity), then there was an allowance for them in speaking to him-saww by giving charity. It so happened that whenever the man wanted to speak to him-saww, he had to give in charity with a Dirham, then speak to him-saww with what he wanted.
قَالَ فَكَفَّ النَّاسُ عَنْ كَلَامِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ بَخِلُوا أَنْ يَتَصَدَّقُوا قَبْلَ كَلَامِهِ فَتَصَدَّقَ عَلِيٌّ ع بِدِينَارٍ كَانَ لَهُ فَبَاعَهُ بِعَشَرَةِ دَرَاهِمَ فِي عَشْرِ كَلِمَاتٍ سَأَلَهُنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ غَيْرُهُ وَ بَخِلَ أَهْلُ الْمَيْسَرَةِ أَنْ يَفْعَلُوا ذَلِكَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘The people refrained from speaking to Rasool-Allah-saww and they were being miserly from giving charity before talking to him-saww. Ali-asws gave a Dinar in charity which was for him-asws, so he-asws changed it for ten Dirhams regarding ten phrases he-asws asked Rasool-Allah-saww, and no one from the Muslims did that apart from him-asws, and the people of affluence were too miserly from doing that.
فَقَالَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ مَا صَنَعَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ الَّذِي صَنَعَ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُرَوِّجَ لِابْنِ عَمِّهِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذا ناجَيْتُمُ الرَّسُولَ فَقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقَةً ذلِكَ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ مِنْ إِمْسَاكِهَا وَ أَطْهَرُ يَقُولُ وَ أَزْكَى لَكُمْ مِنَ الْمَعْصِيَةِ- فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا الصَّدَقَةَ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ-
The hypocrites said, ‘Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws did not do what he-asws did from the charity except and he-asws wanted to promote the son-saww of his-asws uncle-as. So, Allah-azwj the Exalted Revealed: O you those who believe! Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, then give something in charity before your consultation. That would be better for you – than withholding it, and purer. [58:12]. He-azwj is Saying it would be purer for you than disobedience, But if you cannot not find (the means), – charity, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful [58:12].
أَ أَشْفَقْتُمْ يَقُولُ الْحَكِيمُ أَ أَشْفَقْتُمْ يَا أَهْلَ الْمَيْسَرَةِ- أَنْ تُقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ يَقُولُ قُدَّامَ نَجْوَاكُمْ يَعْنِي كَلَامَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَدَقَةً عَلَى الْفُقَرَاءِ- فَإِذْ لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا يَا أَهْلَ الْمَيْسَرَةِ- وَ تابَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَعْنِي تَجَاوَزَ عَنْكُمْ إِذْ لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا- فَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلاةَ يَقُولُ أَقِيمُوا الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسَ- وَ آتُوا الزَّكاةَ يَعْنِي أَعْطُوا الزَّكَاةَ يَقُولُ تَصَدَّقُوا
Are you fearing – The Wise One-azwj is Saying, ‘Are you fearing, O people of affluence?” – sending forth charities before your consultations? – He-azwj is Saying, before your consultations, meaning talking to Rasool-Allah-saww, giving charity upon the poor. So when you did not do so, – O people of affluence, and Allah Turned to you. – meaning Overlooked from you when you did not do so, Therefore establish the Salat – establishing the five (daily Salats, and give the Zakat, – meaning give the Zakat, give charity.
فَنُسِخَتْ مَا أُمِرُوا بِهِ عِنْدَ الْمُنَاجَاةِ بِإِتْمَامِ الصَّلَاةِ وَ إِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ- وَ أَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَ رَسُولَهُ بِالصَّدَقَةِ فِي الْفَرِيضَةِ وَ التَّطَوُّعِ- وَ اللَّهُ خَبِيرٌ بِما تَعْمَلُونَ أَيْ بِمَا تُنْفِقُونَ خَبِيرٌ.
It Abrogated what they had been Commanded with during the consultation, by completing the Salat and giving the Zakat – and obey Allah and His Rasool, – with the charity in the Obligatory and the voluntary, and Allah is Aware of what you are doing [58:13] – i.e. Aware of what you are spending’’.[192]
ذَكَرَهُ أَنَّهُ فِي جَامِعِ التِّرْمِذِيِّ وَ تَفْسِيرِ الثَّعْلَبِيِّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ الْأَنْمَارِيِّ يَرْفَعُهُ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: بِي خَفَّفَ اللَّهُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ لِأَنَّ اللَّهَ امْتَحَنَ الصَّحَابَةَ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ فَتَقَاعَسُوا عَنْ مُنَاجَاةِ الرَّسُولِ وَ كَانَ قَدِ احْتَجَبَ فِي مَنْزِلِهِ مِنْ مُنَاجَاةِ كُلِّ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا مَنْ تَصَدَّقَ بِصَدَقَةٍ وَ كَانَ مَعِي دِينَارٌ فَتَصَدَّقْتُ بِهِ
It is mentioned that it is in collection of Al Yirmizi and Tafseer Al Sa’alby, by his chain from Al Qamah Al Anmary, raising it to,
‘Ali-asws having said: ‘Due to me-asws, Allah-azwj Lightened from this community, because Allah-azwj Tested the companion with this Verse. They delayed from consulting the Rasool-saww, and he-saww had barred in his-saww house from consulting everyone except the one who gives something in charity, and there was a Dinar with me-asws, so I-asws gave in charity with it.
فَكُنْتُ أَنَا سَبَبَ التَّوْبَةِ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ حِينَ عَمِلْتُ بِالْآيَةِ وَ لَوْ لَمْ يَعْمَلْ بِهَا أَحَدٌ لَنَزَلَ الْعَذَابُ لِامْتِنَاعِ الْكُلِّ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ بِهَا.
Thus, I-asws was the cause of the repentance (Turning with Mercy) from Allah-azwj upon the Muslims when I-asws had acted with the Verse, and had no one acted with it, the Punishment would have descended due to the refusal of everyone from acting with it’’.[193]
9- وَ رَوَى الْحَافِظُ أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ فِي كِتَابِ مَا نَزَلَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ فِي عَلِيٍّ ع بِسَنَدِهِ عَنِ ابْنِ جَرِيحٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَ عَنْ مُقَاتِلٍ عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَ يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذا ناجَيْتُمُ الرَّسُولَ الْآيَةَ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَحَدٌ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُنَاجِيَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص حَتَّى يَتَصَدَّقَ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ فَكَانَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ تَصَدَّقَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع فَصَرَفَ دِينَاراً بِعَشَرَةِ دَرَاهِمَ وَ تَصَدَّقَ بِهَا وَ نَاجَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ بِعَشَرَةِ كَلِمَاتٍ.
And it is reported by Al Hafiz Abu Nueym in the book ‘Ma Nazal Min Al Quran Fi Ali-asws’, by his chain from Ibn Jareeh, from Ata’a, from Ibn Abbas, and from Muqatal, from Al Zahhak, from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘When it was Revealed: O you those who believe! Whenever you (wish to) consult the Rasool, [58:12] – the Verse. No one able to consult Rasool-Allah-saww until he had given charity before that. So, the first one to give charity was Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. He-asws exchanged one Dinar for ten Dirhams, and gave in charity with it and consulted Rasool-Allah-azwj with then sessions’’.[194]
10- وَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ حَرَّمَ كَلَامَ الرَّسُولِ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ الرَّجُلُ أَنْ يُكَلِّمَهُ تَصَدَّقَ بِدِرْهَمٍ ثُمَّ تَكَلَّمَهُ بِمَا يُرِيدُ
And by his chain from Muhammad Bin Al Sa’aib, from Abu Salih, from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Prohibited speaking to the Rasool-saww. So, whenever the man wanted to speak to him-saww, he had to give in charity with one Dirham, then he could speak to him-saww with what he wanted.
فَكَفَّ النَّاسُ عَنْ كَلَامِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ بَخِلُوا أَنْ يَتَصَدَّقُوا قَبْلَ كَلَامِهِ قَالَ وَ تَصَدَّقَ عَلِيٌّ ع وَ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ غَيْرُهُ فَقَالَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ مَا صَنَعَ عَلِيٌّ الَّذِي صَنَعَ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُرَوِّجَ لِابْنِ عَمِّهِ.
The people refrained from talking to Rasool-Allah-azwj and they were miserly in giving charity before talking to him-saww. And Ali-asws gave charity, and no one from the Muslims did that apart from him-asws. The hypocrites said, ‘Ali-asws did not do that which he-asws did from the charity except and he-asws wanted to promote the son-saww of his-asws uncle-as’’.[195]
11- وَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَا تَقُولُ فِي دِينَارٍ قُلْتُ لَا يُطِيقُونَهُ قَالَ كَمْ قُلْتُ شَعِيرَةً قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَزَهِيدٌ
And by his chain from Salim Bin Abu Al Ja’ad,
‘From Ali-asws having said: ‘When this Verse was Revealed, Rasool-Allah-saww said to me-asws: ‘What are you-asws saying regarding one Dinar (to be given in charity before consultation)?’ I-asws said: ‘They will not tolerate it’. He-saww said: ‘How much (then)?’ I-asws said: ‘Some barley’. He-saww said: ‘You-asws are an ascetic’.
فَنَزَلَتْ- أَ أَشْفَقْتُمْ أَنْ تُقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْواكُمْ صَدَقاتٍ الْآيَةَ قَالَ فَبِي خَفَّفَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ فَلَمْ تَنْزِلْ فِي أَحَدٍ قَبْلِي وَ لَمْ يَنْزِلْ فِي أَحَدٍ بَعْدِي.
It was Revealed: Are you fearing sending forth charities before your consultations? [58:13] – the Verse. He-asws said: ‘It was due to me-asws Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Lightened from this community. It was not Revealed regarding anyone before him-asws and was no Revealed regarding anyone after me-asws’’.[196]
12- وَ رَوَى إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ فِي فَرَائِدِ السِّمْطَيْنِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع أَنَّهُ نَاجَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ بِعَشْرِ كَلِمَاتٍ قَدَّمَهَا عَشْرَ صَدَقَاتٍ فَسَأَلَ فِي الْأُولَى مَا الْوَفَاءُ قَالَ التَّوْحِيدُ شَهَادَةُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ
And it is reported by Ibrahim Bin Muhammad in (the book) ‘Faraid Al Simteyn’, by his chain,
‘From Ali-asws having consulted Rasool-Allah-saww ten times with ten session, advancing ten charities. He-asws asked during the first: ‘What is the loyalty?’ He-saww said: ‘Al-Tawheed. The testimony that there is no god except Allah-azwj’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ وَ مَا الْفَسَادُ قَالَ الْكُفْرُ وَ الشِّرْكُ بِاللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ
The he-asws said: ‘And what is the corruption?’ He-saww said: ‘The Kufr and the Shirk with Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic’.
قَالَ وَ مَا الْحَقُّ قَالَ الْإِسْلَامُ وَ الْقُرْآنُ وَ الْوَلَايَةُ إِذَا انْتَهَتْ إِلَيْكَ
He-asws said: ‘And what is the truth?’ He-saww said: ‘Al-Islam, and the Quran, and the Wilayah, when it ends to you-asws’.
قَالَ وَ مَا الْحِيلَةُ قَالَ تَرْكُ الْحِيلَةِ
He-asws said: ‘And what is the effort?’ He-saww said: ‘Leaving the effort’.
قَالَ وَ مَا عَلَيَّ قَالَ طَاعَةُ اللَّهِ وَ طَاعَةُ رَسُولِهِ
He-asws said: ‘And what is upon me-asws?’ He-saww said: ‘Obedience of Allah-azwj and obedience of His-azwj Rasool-saww’.
قَالَ وَ كَيْفَ أَدْعُو اللَّهَ تَعَالَى قَالَ بِالصِّدْقِ وَ الْيَقِينِ
He-asws said: ‘And how should I-asws supplicate to Allah-azwj the Exalted?’ He-saww said: ‘With the sincerity and the certainty’.
قَالَ وَ مَا أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى قَالَ الْعَافِيَةَ
He-asws said: ‘And what shall I-asws ask Allah-azwj the Exalted for?’ He-saww said: ‘The well-being’.
قَالَ وَ مَا ذَا أَصْنَعُ لِنَجَاةِ نَفْسِي قَالَ كُلْ حَلَالًا وَ قُلْ صِدْقاً
He-asws said; ‘And what is that I-asws shall do for the salvation of my-asws self?’ He-saww said: ‘Eat the Permissible and speak the truth’.
قَالَ وَ مَا السُّرُورُ قَالَ الْجَنَّةُ
He-asws said: ‘And what is the cheerfulness?’ He-saww said: ‘The Paradise’.
قَالَ وَ مَا الرَّاحَةُ قَالَ لِقَاءُ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى
He-asws said: ‘And what is the rest?’ He-saww said: ‘Meeting Allah-azwj the Exalted’.
فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ نُسِخَ حُكْمُ الْآيَةِ.
When he-asws was free, the Ruling of the Verse was Abrogated’’.[197]

(The book) ‘Al Amaali’ of the sheykh Al Tusy, by a chain of brother of Deobel,
‘From Al-Reza-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws was addressing upon the pulpit on the day of Friday. He-asws said: ‘By the One-azwj Who Split the seed and Formed the person! There is no man from Quraysh the consolation flowed upon except and a Verse from the Book of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic had been Revealed regarding him. I-asws recognise these just as I-asws recognise him.

A man stood up to him and said, ‘O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! What is your-asws Verse which was Revealed regarding you-asws?’
فَقَالَ إِذَا سَأَلْتَ فَافْهَمْ وَ لَا عَلَيْكَ أَنْ لَا تَسْأَلَ عَنْهَا غَيْرِي أَ قَرَأْتَ سُورَةَ هُودٍ قَالَ نَعَمْ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَ أَ فَسَمِعْتَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَقُولُ- أَ فَمَنْ كانَ عَلى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ يَتْلُوهُ شاهِدٌ مِنْهُ قَالَ نَعَمْ
He-asws said: ‘When you have asked, so understand, and it is not upon you to ask anyone other than me-asws about it. Have you read Surah Hud-as?’ He said, ‘Yes, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws!’ He-asws said: ‘Have you heard Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Saying: So the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, and a witness from him follows it, [11:17]?’ He said, ‘Yes’.

Tafseer Al Qummi – My father, from Yahya Bin Imran, from Yunus, from Abu Baseer, and Al Fuzeyl Bin Yasaar,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘But rather it was Revealed: So the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, – meaning Rasool-Allah-saww, and a witness from him follows it, [11:17] – meaning Ali Amir Al-Momineen-asws, an Imam and a Mercy, and from before it was the Book of Musa they are believing in it [11:17]. So they (collectors of the Quran) brought forward (and from before it was the Book of Musa), and put back (an Imam and a Mercy) during the compilation’’.[200]
(Note: The current Verses stands as: So the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, and a witness from him recites it, and from before it was the Book of Musa, an Imam and a Mercy, they are believing in it; [11:17])

By Allah-azwj! No Verse has been revealed in the Book of Allah-azwj, during night or day, except and I-asws have known regarding who it was Revealed, nor from the ones from Quraysh upon whose head is consolation, except an a Verse from the Book of Allah-azwj has been Revealed regarding him, either ushering him to the Paradise or to the Fire’.

A man stood up to him-asws and said, ‘O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! What is the Verse which was Revealed regarding you-asws?’
قَالَ لَهُ أَ مَا سَمِعْتَ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ- أَ فَمَنْ كانَ عَلى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ يَتْلُوهُ شاهِدٌ مِنْهُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَلَى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ أَنَا شَاهِدٌ لَهُ فِيهِ وَ أَتْلُوهُ مَعَهُ.
He-asws said to him: ‘Have you not heard Allah-azwj Saying: ‘So the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, and a witness from him follows it [11:17]?

‘I was seated with Abu Ja’far-asws in Masjid of the Prophet and I saw Ibn Abdullah Bin Salam seated in a corner. I said to Abu Ja’far-asws, ‘They are claiming that the father of this is the one, with whom is Knowledge of the Book’.
فَقَالَ لَا إِنَّمَا ذَاكَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع نَزَلَ فِيهِ- أَ فَمَنْ كانَ عَلى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ يَتْلُوهُ شاهِدٌ مِنْهُ- فَالنَّبِيُّ ص عَلَى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ شَاهِدٌ مِنْهُ.
He-asws said: ‘No. But rather, that is Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. It was Revealed regarding him-asws: So the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, and a witness from him follows it, [11:17]. The Prophet-saww is upon a clear Proof from his-saww Lord-azwj, and Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws is a witness from him-saww’’.[217]
14- فر، تفسير فرات بن إبراهيم الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ مُعَنْعَناً عَنْ زَاذَانَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع قَالَ لَوْ ثُنِيَتْ لِيَ الْوِسَادَةُ فَجَلَسْتُ عَلَيْهَا لَحَكَمْتُ بَيْنَ أَهْلِ التَّوْرَاةِ بِتَوْرَاتِهِمْ وَ بَيْنَ أَهْلِ الْإِنْجِيلِ بِإِنْجِيلِهِمْ وَ بَيْنَ أَهْلِ الزَّبُورِ بِزَبُورِهِمْ وَ بَيْنَ أَهْلِ الْقُرْآنِ بِقُرْآنِهِمْ بِقَضَاءٍ يَصْعَدُ إِلَى اللَّهِ
Tafseer Furaat Bin Ibrahim – Al-Husayn Bin Saeed transmitting from Zazan who said,
‘I heard Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws saying: ‘If the pillow (platform) were to be set up for me-asws and I-asws sit upon it, I-asws would judge between the people of the Torah by their Torah, and between the people of the Evangel by their Evangel, and between the people of the Psalms by their Psalms, and between the people of the Quran by their Quran, by judgments ascending to Allah-azwj.
وَ اللَّهِ مَا نَزَلَتْ آيَةٌ فِي لَيْلٍ أَوْ نَهَارٍ وَ لَا سَهْلٍ وَ لَا جَبَلٍ وَ لَا بَرٍّ وَ لَا بَحْرٍ إِلَّا وَ قَدْ عَرَفْتُ أَيَّ سَاعَةٍ نَزَلَتْ وَ فِيمَنْ نَزَلَتْ وَ مَا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ رَجُلٌ جَرَى عَلَيْهِ الْمَوَاسِي إِلَّا وَ قَدْ نَزَلَتْ فِيهِ آيَةٌ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ تَسُوقُهُ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ أَوْ تَقُودُهُ إِلَى النَّارِ
By Allah-azwj! No Verse has been Revealed in a night or day, nor in a coast, nor mountain, nor land, nor sea, except and I-asws recognise which time it was Revealed, and regarding who it was Revealed. And there is no man from Quraysh the consolation had flowed upon him except and a Verse from the Book of Allah-azwj had been Revealed regarding him, either ushering him to the Paradise or leading him to the Fire’.
قَالَ فَقَالَ قَائِلٌ فَمَا نَزَلَتْ فِيكَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘A speaker said, ‘So what has been revealed regarding you-asws, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws?’
قَالَ أَ فَمَنْ كانَ عَلى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ يَتْلُوهُ شاهِدٌ مِنْهُ- فَمُحَمَّدٌ عَلَى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ أَنَا الشَّاهِدُ مِنْهُ أَتْلُو آثَارَهُ.
He-asws said: So the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, and a witness from him follows it, [11:17]. Muhammad-saww is upon a clear Proof from his-saww Lord-azwj and I-asws am the witness from him-saww, following his-saww footsteps’’.[218]
15- كشف، كشف الغمة أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ مَرْدَوَيْهِ عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَسَدِيِّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَلِيّاً ع يَقُولُ وَ هُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ إِلَّا قَدْ نَزَلَتْ فِيهِ آيَةٌ أَوْ آيَتَانِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِمَّنْ تَحْتَهُ فَمَا نَزَلَ فِيكَ أَنْتَ
(The book) ‘Kashf Al Ghumma’ – Abu bakr Bin Mardaqayh, from Abbad Bin Abdullah al Asady who said,
‘I heard Ali-asws saying, and he-asws was upon the pulpit: ‘There is no man from Quraysh except and a Verse has been Revealed regarding him, or two Verses’. A man from the ones under it (by the pulpit) said, ‘So, what has been Revealed regarding you-asws?’
فَغَضِبَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَا لَوْ لَمْ تَسْأَلْنِي عَلَى رُءُوسِ الْقَوْمِ مَا حَدَّثْتُكَ وَيْحَكَ هَلْ تَقْرَأُ سُورَةَ هُودٍ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ ع- أَ فَمَنْ كانَ عَلى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ يَتْلُوهُ شاهِدٌ مِنْهُ- رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَلَى بَيِّنَةٍ وَ أَنَا شَاهِدٌ مِنْهُ.
He-asws was angered, then said: ‘Had you not asked me-asws over the chiefs of the people, I-asws would not have narrated to you. Woe be unto you! Have you recited Surah Hud-as?’ Then he-asws recited: So the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, and a witness from him follows it, [11:17]. Rasool-Allah-saww is upon clear Proof from his-saww Lord-azwj and I-asws am a witness from him-saww’’.[219]
16- أَقُولُ وَ رَوَى ابْنُ أَبِي الْحَدِيدِ فِي الْجُزْءِ الثَّانِي مِنْ شَرْحِ نَهْجِ الْبَلَاغَةِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْبَجَلِيِّ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ مُوسَى عَنِ الْمِنْهَالِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ: قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع فِي الْمِنْبَرِ مَا أَحَدٌ جَرَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْمَوَاسِي إِلَّا وَ قَدْ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ قُرْآناً فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ مُبْغِضِيهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ فَمَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فِيكَ
I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘And it is reported by Ibn Abi Al hadeeth in the second volume from the commentary of (the book) ‘Nahj Al Balagah’ – from Muhammad Bin Ismail Bin Amro Al Bajali, from Umar Bin Musa, from Al Minhal Bin Amro, from Abdullah Bin Al Haris who said,
‘Ali-asws said upon the pulpit: ‘There is no one the consolation had flowed upon him except and Allah-azwj has Revealed Quran regarding him’. So, A man from his-asws haters stood up and said to him-asws, ‘So what has Allah-azwj the Exalted regarding you-asws?’
فَقَامَ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ يَضْرِبُونَهُ فَقَالَ دَعُوهُ أَ تَقْرَأُ سُورَةَ هُودٍ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَقَرَأَ عَلَيْهِ- أَ فَمَنْ كانَ عَلى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ يَتْلُوهُ شاهِدٌ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ الَّذِي كَانَ عَلَى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ مُحَمَّدٌ وَ الشَّاهِدُ الَّذِي يَتْلُوهُ أَنَا.
The people stood up to him. He-asws said: ‘Leave him! Have you recited Surah Hud-as?’ He said, ‘Yes’. He-asws recited to him: So the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, and a witness from him follows it, [11:17], then said: ‘The one who was upon a clear Proof from his-saww Lord-azwj is Muhammad-saww, and the witness who followed it, is me-asws’’.[220]
17- يف، الطرائف ابْنُ الْمَغَازِلِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنَا عَلى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ عَلِيٌّ الشَّاهِدُ مِنْهُ.
(The book) ‘Al Taraaif’ of Ibn Al Magazily, said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘I-saww am the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, [11:17], and Ali-asws is the witness from Him-azwj’’.[221]
18- أَقُولُ رَوَى السَّيُوطِيُّ فِي الدُّرِّ الْمَنْثُورِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي حَاتِمٍ وَ ابْنِ مَرْدَوَيْهِ وَ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ فِي الْمَعْرِفَةِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع قَالَ: مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ إِلَّا نَزَلَ فِيهِ طَائِفَةٌ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مَا نَزَلَ فِيكَ قَالَ أَ مَا تَقْرَأُ سُورَةَ هُودٍ- أَ فَمَنْ كانَ عَلى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ يَتْلُوهُ شاهِدٌ مِنْهُ- رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَلَى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ أَنَا شَاهِدٌ مِنْهُ.
I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘It is reported by Al Suyuti in (the book) ‘Al Durr al Mansour’, from Ibn Abu Hatim, and Ibn Mardawayh, and Abu Nueym in (the book) ‘Al Ma’rifah’,
‘From Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws having said: ‘There is no man from Quraysh except a group (of Verses) from the Quran has been Revealed regarding him’. A man said, ‘What has been Revealed regarding you-asws?’ He-asws said: ‘Have you not recited Surah Hud-as? So the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, and a witness from him follows it, [11:17]. Rasool-Allah-saww is upon a clear Proof from his-saww Lord-azwj and I-asws am a witness from him-saww’’.[222]
وَ أَخْرَجَ ابْنُ مَرْدَوَيْهِ وَ ابْنُ عَسَاكِرَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع فِي الْآيَةِ قَالَ قَالَ ع رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَلى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَ أَنَا شَاهِدٌ مِنْهُ.
And it has been extracted by Ibn Mardawayh and Ibn Asakir,
‘From Ali-asws regarding the Verse. He-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww is upon a clear Proof from his Lord, – and I-asws am a witness from him [11:17]’’.[223]
قَالَ وَ أَخْرَجَ ابْنُ مَرْدَوَيْهِ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَ فَمَنْ كانَ عَلى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ أَنَا وَ يَتْلُوهُ شاهِدٌ مِنْهُ عَلِيٌ.
He said, ‘And it is extracted by Ibn Mardawayh, from another perspective,
‘From Ali-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘So the one who was upon a clear Proof from his Lord, – me-saww, and a witness from him follows it, [11:17] – Ali-asws’’.[224]
باب 20 أنه نزل فيه صلوات الله عليه الذكر و النور و الهدى و التقى في القرآن
CHAPTER 20 – IT WAS REVEALED REGARDING HIM-asws – THE ZIKR, AND THE NOOR, AND THE GUIDANCE, AND THE PIETY, IN THE QURAN
1- فس، تفسير القمي وَ إِنْ يَكادُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَيُزْلِقُونَكَ بِأَبْصارِهِمْ لَمَّا سَمِعُوا الذِّكْرَ قَالَ لَمَّا أَخْبَرَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِفَضْلِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع قَالُوا هُوَ مَجْنُونٌ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ- وَ ما هُوَ يَعْنِي أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ بِمَجْنُونٍ إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ لِلْعالَمِينَ.
Tafseer Al-Qummi – And those who commit Kufr would almost smite (strike) you with their eyes when they hear the Zikr, [68:51]. He said, ‘When Rasool-Allah-saww informed them with the merits of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, they said, ‘He is insane!’ [68:51]. Allah-azwj the Glorious Said: And he is not, – meaning Amir Al-Momineen-asws, except (he is) a Zikr for the worlds [68:52]’’.[225]
2- ن، عيون أخبار الرضا عليه السلام تَمِيمٌ الْقُرَشِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ عَنِ الْهَرَوِيِّ قَالَ: سَأَلَ الْمَأْمُونُ الرِّضَا ع عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ- الَّذِينَ كانَتْ أَعْيُنُهُمْ فِي غِطاءٍ عَنْ ذِكْرِي وَ كانُوا لا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ سَمْعاً
(The book) ‘Uyoon Akhbar Al-Reza-asws’ – Tameem Al Qureyshi, from his father, from Ahmad Bin Ali Al Ansari Al Harwy who said,
‘Al-Mamoun asked Al-Reza-asws about Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: Those whose eyes were under a cover from My Zikr (Mention) and they were unable to hear [18:101].
فَقَالَ ع إِنَّ غِطَاءَ الْعَيْنِ لَا يَمْنَعُ مِنَ الذِّكْرِ وَ الذِّكْرُ لَا يُرَى بِالْعَيْنِ وَ لَكِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ شَبَّهَ الْكَافِرِينَ بِوَلَايَةِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع بِالْعُمْيَانِ لِأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يَسْتَثْقِلُونَ قَوْلَ النَّبِيِّ ص فِيهِ وَ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ لَهُ سَمْعاً.
He-asws said: ‘Covering the eyes cannot prevent from the Zikr, and the Zikr cannot be seen by the eyes, but Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Resembled the Kafirs with the blindness for (their denial of) Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, because they were belittling the words of the Prophet-saww regarding him-asws and they were not able to hear it’’.[226]
3- فس، تفسير القمي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الْمَدَائِنِيُّ عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عُلْوَانَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ غُرَابٍ عَنِ الْكَلْبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ وَ مَنْ يُعْرِضْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّهِ قَالَ ذِكْرُ رَبِّهِ وَلَايَةُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع.
Tafseer Al Qummi – Muhammad Bin Ahmad Al Hamdani, from Haroun Bin Muslim, from Al-Husayn Bin Ulwan, from Ali Bin Gurab, from Al Kalby, from Abu Salih, from Ibn Abbas,
‘Regarding His-azwj Words: And one who turns away from Zikr of his Lord, [72:17]. He said, ‘Zikr of his Lord, [72:17] is Wilayah of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’’.[227]
4- كنز، كنز جامع الفوائد و تأويل الآيات الظاهرة مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ الْجُعْفِيِّ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ع عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ- وَ مَنْ يُعْرِضْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّهِ يَسْلُكْهُ عَذاباً صَعَداً قَالَ مَنْ أَعْرَضَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ يَسْلُكْهُ الْعَذَابَ الصَّعَدَ وَ هُوَ أَشَدُّ الْعَذَابِ.

‘I asked Abu Ja’far-asws about Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: And one who turns away from Zikr of his Lord, He would Thrust him into the ever-increasing Punishment [72:17]. He-asws said: ‘One who turns away from Ali-asws, the ever-increasing Punishment would be Thrust to him, and it is the severest of the Punishments’’.[228]

(The book) ‘Al Amaali’ of Al Sadouq – Al talaqany, from Al Jaloudy, from Al Mugheira Bin Muhammad Bin Ibrahim Bin Muhammad, from Qays Bin Al Rabie, and Mansour Bin Abu Al Aswad, from Al Amsh, from Minhal Bin Amro, from Abbad Bin Abdullah who said,
‘Ali-asws said: ‘No Verse from the Quran has been Revealed except and I-asws know where it was Revealed, and regarding who it was Revealed, and regarding which thing it was Revealed, and whether it was Revealed in a coast or it was Revealed in a mountain’.
قِيلَ فَمَا نَزَلَ فِيكَ فَقَالَ لَوْ لَا أَنَّكُمْ سَأَلْتُمُونِي مَا أَخْبَرْتُكُمْ نَزَلَتْ فِيَّ الْآيَةُ إِنَّما أَنْتَ مُنْذِرٌ وَ لِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ هادٍ فَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ الْمُنْذِرُ وَ أَنَا الْهَادِي إِلَى مَا جَاءَ بِهِ.
It was said, ‘So what has been Revealed regarding you-asws?’ He-asws said: ‘If you had not asked me-asws, I-asws would not have informed you. The Verse: But rather, you are a Warner, and for every people there is a Guide [13:7]. So, Rasool-Allah-saww is the warner and I-asws am the guide to what he-saww had come with’’.[229]
6- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب الْوَاحِدِيُّ فِي الْوَسِيطِ وَ فِي الْأَسْبَابِ وَ النُّزُولِ قَالَ عَطَاءٌ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى أَ فَمَنْ شَرَحَ اللَّهُ صَدْرَهُ لِلْإِسْلامِ فَهُوَ عَلى نُورٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ نَزَلَتْ فِي عَلِيٍّ وَ حَمْزَةَ- فَوَيْلٌ لِلْقاسِيَةِ قُلُوبُهُمْ فِي أَبِي جَهْلٍ وَ وُلْدِهِ.
(The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub – Al Wahidy in (the book) ‘Al Waseet’, and ‘(Asbab) Al Nuzool’, ‘Ata’a said,
‘Regarding Words of the Exalted: Indeed! So the one whose heart Allah Expands for Islam, he is upon a Light from his Lord.– it was Revealed regarding Ali-asws. Therefore woe be (unto them) for the harshness in their hearts [39:22] – regarding Abu Jahl-la and his-la children’’.[230]
أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ وَ جَعْفَرٌ ع فِي قَوْلِهِ لِيُخْرِجَكُمْ مِنَ الظُّلُماتِ إِلَى النُّورِ يَقُولُ مِنَ الْكُفْرِ إِلَى الْإِيمَانِ يَعْنِي إِلَى الْوَلَايَةِ لِعَلِيٍّ ع.
Abu Ja’far-asws and Ja’far-asws regarding His-azwj Words: in order to Extract you (Momineen) from the multiple darkness to the Light, [33:43] – He-azwj is Saying, from the Kufr to the Eman, meaning to the Wilayah of Ali-asws’’.[231]
الْبَاقِرُ فِي قَوْلِهِ وَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِوَلَايَةِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ- أَوْلِياؤُهُمُ الطَّاغُوتُ نَزَلَتْ فِي أَعْدَائِهِ وَ مَنْ تَبِعَهُمْ أَخْرَجُوا النَّاسَ مِنَ النُّورِ وَ النُّورُ وَلَايَةُ عَلِيٍّ ع فَصَارُوا إِلَى الظُّلْمَةِ وَلَايَةِ أَعْدَائِهِ
Al-Baqir-asws regarding His-azwj Words: and (as for) those who are committing Kufr, – with the Wilayah of Ali-asws Bin abu Talib-asws – their guardian is the tyrant [2:257] – was Revealed regarding his-asws enemies and the ones who follow them are extracting the people from the Noor, and the Noor is Wilayah of Ali-asws, so they come to the darkness of the wilayah of his-asws enemies.
وَ قَدْ نَزَلَ فِيهِمْ- فَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِهِ وَ عَزَّرُوهُ وَ نَصَرُوهُ وَ اتَّبَعُوا النُّورَ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَ مَعَهُ وَ قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى- يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يُطْفِؤُا نُورَ اللَّهِ بِأَفْواهِهِمْ وَ يَأْبَى اللَّهُ إِلَّا أَنْ يُتِمَّ نُورَهُ وَ لَوْ كَرِهَ الْكافِرُونَ.
And it has been Revealed regarding them: So those who believe in him, and assist him, and help him, and follow the Noor which has descended with him, [7:157]; and Words of the Exalted: They are intending to extinguish the Light of Allah with their mouths, and Allah Refused except that He would Complete His Light, and even though the Kafirs dislike it [9:32]’’.[232]
وَ قَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ الْمَاضِي يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يُطْفِؤُا وَلَايَةَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع بِأَفْواهِهِمْ وَ اللَّهُ مُتِمُّ نُورِهِ وَ اللَّهُ مُتِمُّ الْإِمَامَةِ.
And Abu Al-Hassan Al-Maazy (7th Imam-asws) said: ‘They are intending to extinguish – the Wilayah of Ali-asws, (the Light of Allah) with their mouths, and Allah would Complete His Light [9:32] – will Complete the Imamate’’.[233]

‘Regarding Words of the Exalted: And they are not equal, the blind one – Abu Jahl-la – and the seeing one [35:19] – Amir Al-Momineen-asws, Neither the multiple darkness – Abu Jahl-la – nor the light [35:20] – Amir Al-Momineen-asws – Neither the shade – meaning shade of Amir Al-Momineen-asws in the Paradise – nor the heat [35:21] – meaning Hell.
ثُمَّ جَمَعَهُمْ جَمِيعاً فَقَالَ- وَ ما يَسْتَوِي الْأَحْياءُ عَلِيٌّ وَ حَمْزَةُ وَ جَعْفَرٌ وَ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ وَ فَاطِمَةُ وَ خَدِيجَةُ ع- وَ لَا الْأَمْواتُ كُفَّارُ مَكَّةَ.
Then He-azwj Gathered them all, so He-azwj Said: And neither are the living equal so the living are Ali-asws, and Hamza-as, and Ja’far-as, and Al-Hassan-asws, and Al-Husayn-asws, and (Syeda) Fatima-asws, and Khadeeja-asws. to the dead [35:22], Kafirs of Makkah’’.[234]

Abu Bakr Al Shirazi in his book, and Abu Salih in his Tafseer, from Muqatil, from Al Zahhak, from Ibn Abbas,
‘Regarding the Words of the Exalted: That is the Book [2:2] – meaning the Quran, and it is that which Allah-azwj Promised Musa-as and Isa-as, it was Revealed unto Muhammad-saww at the end of times, it is this, there is no doubt therein [2:3] – i.e. there is no doubt in it – it is from the Presence of Allah-azwj, a Revelation – Guidance – meaning explanation and warning, for the pious [2:2] – Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. He-asws did not commit Shirk even for the blink of an eye, and was sincere for Allah-azwj in the worship. Allah-azwj would Resurrect him-asws to the Paradise without any Reckoning, he-asws and his-asws Shias’’.[235]
أَبُو الْحَسَنِ الْمَاضِي هُوَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ رَسُولَهُ بِالْهُدى وَ دِينِ الْحَقِ قَالَ هُوَ الَّذِي أَمَرَ رَسُولَهُ بِالْوَلَايَةِ لِوَصِيِّهِ وَ الْوَلَايَةُ هِيَ دِينُ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الْأَدْيَانِ عِنْدَ قِيَامِ الْقَائِمِ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ وَ اللَّهُ مُتِمُّ نُورِهِ وَلَايَةِ الْقَائِمِ- وَ لَوْ كَرِهَ الْكافِرُونَ لِوَلَايَةِ عَلِيٍّ ع.
Abu Al-Hassan Al-Maazy (7th Imam-asws): He is the One Who Sent His Rasool with the Guidance and the Religion of Truth [9:33]. He-asws said: ‘He-azwj is the One-azwj Who Commanded His-azwj Rasool-saww with the Wilayah of his-saww successor-asws, and the Wilayah, the Religion of Truth in order to prevail it upon all the Religions – during the rising of Al-Qaim-asws. Allah-azwj is Saying: Allah will Complete His Light, – Wilayah of Al-Qaim-asws – and even if the Kafirs abhor it [61:8] – (abhorring) Wilayah of Ali-asws’’.[236]
وَ عَنْهُ ع فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى لَمَّا سَمِعْنَا الْهُدى آمَنَّا بِهِ قَالَ الْهُدَى الْوَلَايَةُ آمَنَّا بِمَوْلَانَا فَمَنْ آمَنَ بِوَلَايَةِ مَوْلَاهُ فَلا يَخافُ بَخْساً وَ لا رَهَقاً.
And from his-asws regarding Words of the Exalted: And we, when we heard the Guidance, we believed in it. [72:13]. He-asws said: ‘The Guidance is the Wilayah. They (Jinn) believed in our-asws Wilayah. So, the one who believes in the Wilayah of his Master-asws, then he will neither fear loss nor any burden [72:13]’’.[237]
أَبُو الْوَرْدِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع وَ شَاقُّوا الرَّسُولَ مِنْ بَعْدِ ما تَبَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الْهُدى قَالَ فِي أَمْرِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع.
Abu Al Ward,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws: and oppose the Rasool from after the Guidance having been clarified to them [47:32], he-asws said: ‘Regarding the matter of Amir-Al-Momineen-asws’’.[238]

Al Haskany in (the book) ‘Shawahid Al Tanzeel’ and Al Marzabani in ‘Ma Nazal Min Al Quran Fi Amir Al-Momineen-asws’, Abu Hureyra (well-known fabricator) said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww called for water for Wud’u for us and Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws was with him-saww. He-saww grabbed a hand of Ali-asws after having cleansed and stuck it to his-saww chest, then said: ‘But rather I-saww am a warner’, then he-saww returned it to the chest of Ali-asws, then said: ‘and for every people there is a Guide [13:7].

Al Hafiz Abu Nueym, by three ways from Huzeyfa Bin Al Yamani,
‘The Prophet-saww said: ‘You should fall behind Ali-asws, and I-saww do not see you doing it, you will find him-asws a guide, Guided. He-asws will carry you upon the clear path’’.[241]

He-azwj is Saying, be with Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and Progeny-asws of Muhammad, and the evidence upon that are Words of Allah-azwj: 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-as is Hamza-as, and from them is one who awaits, – and he-asws is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. Allah-azwj Says: and they did not change with any alteration [33:23]’’.[305]

It has been reported by Al tabarsi, from Abu Al Qasim al Haskany, by the chain from Amro Bin Sabit, from Abu Is’haq,
‘From Ali-asws having said: ‘Regarding us-asws was Revealed: From the Momineen there are men who ratified what they made a pact with Allah upon. [33:23]. By Allah-azwj! I-asws am the one waiting and did not change with any alteration’’.[316]
بِقَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ ص لِفَاطِمَةَ ع زَوَّجْتُكِ أَقْدَمَهُمْ سِلْماً وَ أَكْثَرَهُمْ عِلْماً.
The Prophet-saww said to (Syeda) Fatima-asws: ‘I-saww have got you-asws married to the most ancient of them in Islam and the most abundant of them in knowledge’’.[317]
وَ قَوْلِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع أَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَ أَخُو رَسُولِهِ لَمْ يَقُلْهَا أَحَدٌ قَبْلِي وَ لَا يَقُولُهَا أَحَدٌ بَعْدِي إِلَّا كَذَّابٌ مُفْتَرٍ صَلَّيْتُ قَبْلَهُمْ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ.
And words of Amir Al-Momineen-asws: ‘I-asws am a servant of Allah-azwj and brother-asws of His-azwj Rasool-saww. No one has said it before me-asws nor will anyone be saying it after me-asws except a liar, a fabricator. I-asws prayed Salat before they did, by seven years’’.[318]
وَ قَوْلِهِ ع اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي لَا أُقِرُّ لِأَحَدٍ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ عَبَدَكَ قَبْلِي.
And his-asws words: ‘O Allah-azwj! I-asws do not acknowledge to anyone from this community who worshipped You-azwj before me-asws’’.[319]
وَ قَوْلِهِ ع وَ قَدْ بَلَغَهُ مِنَ الْخَوَارِجِ مَقَالٌ أَنْكَرَهُ أَمْ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ عَلِيّاً يَكْذِبُ فَعَلَى مَنْ أَكْذِبُ أَ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَأَنَا أَوَّلُ مَنْ عَبَدَهُ أَمْ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ فَأَنَا أَوَّلُ مَنْ آمَنَ بِهِ وَ صَدَّقَهُ وَ نَصَرَهُ.
And his-asws words, and it had reached him-asws from the Kharijites words he-asws denied: ‘Or are they saying that Ali-asws lied? So, upon whom have I-asws lied? Is it upon Allah-azwj? But, I-asws am the first one to worship Him-azwj. Or upon His-azwj Rasool-saww? But, I-asws am the first one to believe in him-saww and ratified him-asws and helped him-saww’’.[320]

Then, as for the orphan, so do not subdue [93:9] And as for the beggar, so do not repel [93:10] And as for the Favour of your Lord, so do announce (it) [93:11] – Manifest the Quran and narrate to them with what Allah-azwj has Favoured with upon you-saww’’.[333]
قال الحسن وَ أَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ يا محمد حدث العباد بمنن أبي طالب عليك و حدثهم بفضائل علي في كتاب الله لكي يعتقدوا ولايته.
Al-Hassan-asws said, ‘And as for the Favour of your Lord, so do announce (it) [93:11] – O Muhammad-saww! Announce to the servants with the conferment of Abu Talib-asws upon you-saww, and announce the Merits of Ali-asws in the Book of Allah-azwj so they would believe in his-asws Wilayah’’.

‘From Abu Ja’far-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘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]. He-asws said: ‘The acknowledgment with the Prophet-hood of Muhammad-saww and the Imamate of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, it is better than what they are amassing in their world’’.[337]

‘From Ja’far Bin Muhammad-asws regarding Words of the Exalted: He Enters one He so Desires through His Mercy, he-asws said: ‘The Mercy is Wilayah of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and (for) the unjust ones, there would neither be a guardian for them nor a helper [42:8]’’.[338]

(The book) ‘Al Amaali’ – of Al Sadouq, by his chain,
‘From the Prophet-saww in a lengthy Hadeeth having said to Ali-asws: ‘By the One-azwj Who Sent Muhammad-saww with the truth as a Prophet-saww! He has not believed in me-saww, one who denies you-asws, nor acknowledged with me-saww, one who rejects you-asws, and he has not believed in Allah-azwj, one who disbelieves in you-asws.
إِنَّ فَضْلَكَ لَمِنْ فَضْلِي وَ إِنَّ فَضْلِي لِفَضْلِ اللَّهِ وَ هُوَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ- قُلْ بِفَضْلِ اللَّهِ الْآيَةَ
Your-asws merit is from my-saww merit, and my-saww merit is of the Grace of Allah-azwj, and it is the Word of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: Say: ‘By the Grace of Allah [10:58] – the Verse.
فَفَضْلُ اللَّهِ نُبُوَّةُ نَبِيِّكُمْ وَ رَحْمَتُهُ وَلَايَةُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع- فَبِذلِكَ قَالَ بِالنُّبُوَّةِ وَ الْوَلَايَةِ فَلْيَفْرَحُوا يَعْنِي الشِّيعَةَ- هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا يَجْمَعُونَ يَعْنِي مُخَالِفِيهِمْ مِنَ الْمَالِ وَ الْأَهْلِ وَ الْوَلَدِ فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا.
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, so by that, – by 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 adversaries (amassing) the wealth, and the family, and the children in the house of the world’’.[339]
أَقُولُ رَوَى ابْنُ بِطْرِيقٍ فِي الْمُسْتَدْرَكِ عَنِ الْحَافِظِ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ بِإِسْنَادِهِ يَرْفَعُهُ إِلَى جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى ثُمَّ لَتُسْئَلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعِيمِ يَعْنِي الْأَمْنَ وَ الصِّحَّةَ وَ وَلَايَةَ عَلِيٍّ ع.
I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘It is reported by Ibn Batreeq in (the book) ‘Al Mustadrak’, from Al Hafiz Bu Nueym, by his chain raising it to,
‘Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws regarding Words of the Exalted: Then you will be Questioned on that Day about the boons [102:8] – meaning the security, and the health, and Wilayah of Ali-asws’’.[340]
