You-asws are from me-saww at the status of Hibbatullah-as from Adam-as, and at the status of Saam-as from Noah-as, and at the status of Is’haq from Ibrahim-as, and at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, and at the status of Shamoun-as from Isa-as, except there is no Prophet-as after me-saww.
يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْتَ وَصِيِّي وَ خَلِيفَتِي فَمَنْ جَحَدَ وَصِيَّتَكَ وَ خِلَافَتَكَ فَلَيْسَ مِنِّي وَ لَسْتُ مِنْهُ وَ أَنَا خَصْمُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ
O Ali-asws! You-asws are my-saww successor-asws, and my-saww caliph, so the one who rejects your-asws successor-ship and your-asws caliphate, he isn’t from me-saww and I-saww am not from him, and I-saww shall dispute with him on the Day of Qiyamah.
يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْتَ أَفْضَلُ أُمَّتِي فَضْلًا وَ أَقْدَمُهُمْ سِلْماً وَ أَكْثَرُهُمْ عِلْماً وَ أَوْفَرُهُمْ حِلْماً وَ أَشْجَعُهُمْ قَلْباً وَ أَسْخَاهُمْ كَفّاً
O Ali-asws! You are the most superior of my-saww community of merits, and their most advanced in being a Muslim, and their most abundant of them in knowledge, and their most plentiful in wisdom, and their bravest of heart, and their most generous in palm (giving).
يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْتَ الْإِمَامُ بَعْدِي وَ الْأَمِيرُ وَ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ بَعْدِي وَ الْوَزِيرُ وَ مَا لَكَ فِي أُمَّتِي مِنْ نَظِيرٍ
O Ali-asws! You-asws are the Imam-asws after me-saww, and the commander, and you-asws are the Master after me-saww, and the Vizier, and there is no match for you-asws in my-saww community’.
يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْتَ قَسِيمُ الْجَنَّةِ وَ النَّارِ بِمَحَبَّتِكَ يُعْرَفُ الْأَبْرَارُ مِنَ الْفُجَّارِ وَ يُمَيَّزُ بَيْنَ الْأَشْرَارِ وَ الْأَخْيَارِ وَ بَيْنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْكُفَّارِ.
O Ali-asws! You-asws are the distributor of the Paradise and the Fire. By your-asws love the righteous are being recognised from the immoral, and the evil ones are distinguished from the good ones, and between the Momineen and the Kafirs’’.[1]

وَ قَالَ ص يَا أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ اشْهَدِي وَ اسْمَعِي هَذَا عَلِيٌّ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ سَيِّدُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَ عَيْبَةُ عِلْمِي وَ بَابِيَ الَّذِي أُوتَى مِنْهُ وَ الْوَصِيُّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي أَخِي فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ خَدِينِي فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَ مَعِي فِي السَّنَامِ الْأَعْلَى.
And he-saww said: ‘O Umm Salama-ra! Be witness and listen to me-saww! This Ali-asws is Emir of the Momineen, and chief of the Muslims, and receptacle of my-saww knowledge, and my-saww door which I-saww can be accessed from, and the successor-asws upon my-saww community from People-asws of my Household in the world, and my-saww friend in the Hereafter, and with me-asws in the lofty peak’’.[15]
15- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ أَنَّ يَهُودِيّاً جَاءَ إِلَيْهِ ص يُقَالُ لَهُ سَجْتُ الْفَارِسِيُ فَقَالَ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ رَبِّكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنْ أَجَبْتَنِي أَتَّبِعْكَ وَ كَانَ رَجُلًا مِنْ مُلُوكِ فَارِسَ وَ كَانَ ذَرِباً
(The book) ‘Al Kharaij Wa Al Jaraih’ –
‘It is reported that a Jew called Sajt the Persian, came to him-saww. He said, ‘I ask you you-saww about your-saww Lord-azwj, O Muhammad-saww. If you-saww were to answer me, I shall follow you-saww’ – and he was from the kings of Persia, and he was eloquent.
فَقَالَ أَيْنَ اللَّهُ قَالَ هُوَ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ وَ لَا يُوصَفُ بِمَكَانٍ وَ لَا يَزُولُ بَلْ لَمْ يَزَلْ بِلَا مَكَانٍ وَ لَا يَزَالُ
He said, ‘Where is Allah-azwj?’ He-saww said: ‘He-azwj is in every place, and He-azwj cannot be described with a place, nor does He-azwj move, but He-azwj has not ceased to be without a place nor will He-azwj cease’.
فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنَّكَ لَتَصِفُ رَبّاً عَظِيماً بِلَا كَيْفٍ فَكَيْفَ لِي أَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ أَرْسَلَكَ
He said, ‘O Muhammad-saww! You-saww are describing a Lord-azwj incredibly, without ‘how’. So, how can it be for me to know that He-azwj Sent you-saww?’
قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع فَلَمْ يَبْقَ بِحَضْرَتِنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ حَجَرٌ وَ لَا مَدَرٌ إِلَّا قَالَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَ أَنَ مُحَمَّداً عَبْدُهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ وَ قُلْتُ أَيْضاً أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللَّهِ
Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws said: ‘There did not remain in our present on that day, neither any stone nor mud except it said, ‘I testify that there is no god except Allah-azwj Alone, there being no associate for Him-asws, and that Muhammad-saww is His-azwj servant, and His-azwj Rasool-saww’. And I-asws said as well: ‘I-asws testify that there is no god except Allah-azwj Alone, there being no associate for Him-azwj, and that Muhammad-saww is Rasool-Allah-saww’’.
فَأَسْلَمَ سَجْتُ وَ سَمَّاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَبْدَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَنْ هَذَا قَالَ هَذَا خَيْرُ أَهْلِي وَ أَقْرَبُ الْخَلْقِ مِنِّي وَ هُوَ الْوَزِيرُ فِي حَيَاتِي وَ الْخَلِيفَةُ بَعْدَ وَفَاتِي كَمَا كَانَ هَارُونُ مِنْ مُوسَى إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي فَاسْمَعْ لَهُ وَ أَطِعْهُ فَإِنَّهُ عَلَى الْحَقِ.
Sajt became a Muslim and Rasool-Allah-saww named him as ‘Abdullah’. He said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Who is this?’ He-saww said: ‘This is best of my-saww family-asws, and closest of the people from me-saww, and he-asws is the Vizier during my-saww lifetime and the caliph after my-saww expiry, like what Haroun-as was from Musa-as except, surely there is no Prophet-as after me-saww. So, listen to him-asws and obey him-asws for he-asws is upon the truth’’.[16]
16- شف، كشف اليقين مِنْ تَفْسِيرِ الْحَافِظِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُؤْمِنٍ الشِّيرَازِيِّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ: أَقْبَلَ صَخْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَتَّى جَلَسَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ هَذَا الْأَمْرُ لَنَا مِنْ بَعْدِكَ أَمْ لِمَنْ قَالَ يَا صَخْرُ الْأَمْرُ مِنْ بَعْدِي لِمَنْ هُوَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى
(The book) ‘Kashaf Al Yaqeen’ – From Tafseer of the memoriser Muhammad Bin Momin Al Shirazi, by his chain, raising it, said,
‘Sakhr Bin Harb came until he sat to Rasool-Allah-saww. He said, ‘O Muhammad-saww! This command from after you-saww, is it for us or for who?’ He-saww said: ‘O Sakhr! The command from after me-saww for the one who is from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as’.
فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَمَّ يَتَساءَلُونَ يَعْنِي يَسْأَلُكَ أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ عَنْ خِلَافَةِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَنِ النَّبَإِ الْعَظِيمِ الَّذِي هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ مِنْهُمُ الْمُصَدِّقُ بِوَلَايَتِهِ وَ خِلَافَتِهِ كَلَّا رَدْعٌ وَ رَدٌّ عَلَيْهِمْ سَيَعْلَمُونَ سَيَعْرِفُونَ خِلَافَتَهُ بَعْدَكَ أَنَّهَا حَقٌّ يَكُونُ
Allah-azwj the Exalted Revealed: What are they asking about? [78:1] – meaning the people of Makkah are asking you-saww about the caliphate of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws: About the Magnificent News, [78:2] Which they are differing in? [78:3] – from them is the ratifier of his-asws Wilayah and his-asws caliphate, Never! – a Rebuttal, and a rejection to them – They shall soon come to know [78:4] – they will be recognising his-asws caliphate after you-saww, it is a reality to happen.
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ سَيَعْرِفُونَ خِلَافَتَهُ وَ وَلَايَتَهُ إِذْ يُسْأَلُونَ عَنْهَا فِي قُبُورِهِمْ فَلَا يَبْقَى مَيِّتٌ فِي شَرْقٍ وَ لَا فِي غَرْبٍ وَ لَا فِي بَرٍّ وَ لَا فِي بَحْرٍ إِلَّا وَ مُنْكَرٌ وَ نَكِيرٌ يَسْأَلَانِهِ عَنْ وَلَايَةِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ يَقُولَانِ لِلْمَيِّتِ مَنْ رَبُّكَ وَ مَا دِينُكَ وَ مَنْ نَبِيُّكَ وَ مَنْ إِمَامُكَ.
Then (again), never! They shall soon come to know [78:5]– They will be recognising his-asws caliphate and his-asws Wilayah when they are questioned about it in their graves, so there will not remain any deceased in the east, nor in the west, nor in a land, nor in a sea, except Munkar and Nakeer (two questioning Angels) would be questioning him about Wilayah of Amir Al-Momineen-asws after the death. They would be saying to the deceased: ‘Who is your Lord-azwj? And what is your religion? And who is your Prophet-saww? And who is your Imam-asws’’.[17]

(The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub,
‘And as for the Hadeeth: ‘You-asws are from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as and Musa-as, except surely there will be no Prophet-saww after me-saww. The two sheykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) have extracted in their (books) ‘Saheeh’, and Al-Natanzy in (the book) ‘Al-Khasaais’ that a man asked Shafie about Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. He said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘You-asws are from me-saww at the status of Haroun from Musa-as, except for the Prophet-hood’’.[18]
18- كشف، كشف الغمة مِنْ مَنَاقِبِ الْخُوَارِزْمِيِّ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: جَاءَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ نَحْنُ مُضْطَجِعُونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَ فِي يَدِهِ عَسِيبٌ رَطْبٌ فَقَالَ تَرْقُدُونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ قُلْنَا قَدْ أَجْفَلْنَا وَ أَجْفَلَ عَلِيٌّ مَعَنَا
(The book) ‘Kashf Al Ghumma’, from (the book) ‘Manaqib’ of Al Khawarizmy, from Jabir Bin Abdullah having said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww came to us and we were lying down in the Masjid, and in his-saww hand was a branch of dates. He-saww said: ‘You-saww are lying down in the Masjid?’ We said, ‘We were embarrassed and Ali-asws was embarrassed along with us.
فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص تَعَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ إِنَّهُ يَحِلُّ لَكَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ مَا يَحِلُّ لِي أَ لَا تَرْضَى أَنْ تَكُونَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى إِلَّا النُّبُوَّةَ
Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Come, O Ali-asws! It is permissible for you-asws in the Masjid whatever is permissible for me-asws. Are you-asws not pleased that you-asws happen to be from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as except the Prophet-hood.
وَ الَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّكَ لَذَائِدٌ عَنْ حَوْضِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ تَذُودُ عَنْهُ رِجَالًا كَمَا يُذَادُ الْبَعِيرُ الضَّالُّ عَنِ الْمَاءِ بِعَصًا لَكَ مِنْ عَوْسَجٍ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى مُقَامِكَ مِنْ حَوْضِي.
By the One-azwj in Whose Hand is my-saww soul! You-asws will be impeding (some people) from the Fountain on the Day of Qiyamah, driving some men away from it like what the stray camel is driven away from the water with a stick of vine. It is as if I-saww am looking at your-asws position from my-saww Fountain’’.[19]

‘I saw Hasaan Bin Sabit standing at Mina, and the Prophet-saww and his-saww companions had gathered. The Prophet-saww said: ‘Community of Muslims! This Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws is chief of the Arabs, and the greatest successor-asws. His-asws status from me-saww is a status of Haroun-as from Musa-as. Indeed! Surely, there will be no Prophet-saww after me-saww. The repentance will not be accepted from a repentant except being with his-asws love. O Hasaan! Say something regarding him-asws!’
فَأَنْشَأَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ يَقُولُ
| لَا تُقْبَلُ التَّوْبَةُ مِنْ تَائِبٍ- | إِلَّا بِحُبِّ ابْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ- | |

Hasaan Bin Sabit prosed saying, ‘The repentance would not be accepted from a repentant except by having the love of the son-asws of Abu Talib-asws, brother of Rasool-Allah-saww, but (also) his-saww son-in-law, and the son-in-law cannot be equated with the companion. And who can be like Ali-asws, and the sun returned for him-asws from the west. And the sun returned upon him-asws regarding its white illumination as if the sun had not set (at all)’’.[20]

(The book) ‘Al Amdah’ – By his chain from Abdullah Bin Ahmad Bin Hanbal, from his father, from Wakie, from Fazl Bin Marzouq, from Atiya Al Awfy, from Abu Saeed Al Khudry who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said to Ali-asws: ‘You-asws are from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, except surely there is no Prophet-as after me-saww’’.[21]

And by the chain from Abdullah, from his father, from Abdul Razaq, from Moamar, from Ubadah, and Ali Bin Zayd Bin Juz’an both said, ‘It is narrated to us by Ibn Al Musayyab who said, ‘It is narrated to me by Ibn Sa’ad Bin Abu Waqas, from his father who said,
‘I entered to see Sa’ad. I said, ‘There is a Hadeeth I narrated from you having narrated it, where the Prophet-saww left Ali-asws (as caliph) upon Al-Medina’.
قَالَ فَغَضِبَ سَعْدٌ وَ قَالَ مَنْ حَدَّثَكَ بِهِ فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أُخْبِرَهُ أَنَّ ابْنَهُ حَدَّثَنِيهِ فَيَغْضَبَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص حِينَ خَرَجَ فِي غَزَاةِ تَبُوكَ اسْتَخْلَفَ عَلِيّاً ع عَلَى الْمَدِينَةِ
He (the narrator) said, ‘Sa’ad got angered and said, ‘Who has narrated to you with it?’ I disliked to inform him that it was his son who had narrated it, so he would be angered upon him. Then he said, ‘When Rasool-Allah-saww went out in the military expedition of Tabuk, he left being Ali-asws (as caliph) upon Al-Medina.
فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا كُنْتُ أُحِبُّ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ فِي وَجْهٍ إِلَّا وَ أَنَا مَعَكَ فَقَالَ ص أَ وَ مَا تَرْضَى أَنْ تَكُونَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي.
Ali-asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! I-asws did not like that you-saww would go out in any direction except and I-asws am with you-saww’. He-saww said: ‘Or are you-asws nor pleased you happen to be from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, apart from that surely there is no Prophet-as after me-asws’’.[22]

He said, ‘But, for as long as I remember three (things) Rasool-Allah-saww for him-asws, I will never revile him-asws, if even one of these happen to be for me, it would have been more beloved to me than the red camel!

You-saww are leaving me-asws with the women and children?’ Rasool-Allah-saww said to him-asws: ‘Are you-asws not pleased that you-asws happen to be from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, except surely there is not Prophet-hood after me-saww’.

They came with him-asws being with sore eyes. He-saww applied his-saww saliva in his-asws eyes, and he-saww handed the flag to him-asws, so Allah-azwj Granted victory upon his-asws hands.

‘Rasool-Allah-saww said to Ali-asws: ‘Stay in Al-Medina’. Ali-asws said to him-saww: ‘You-saww have never gone out in any military expedition and left me-asws behind!’ The Prophet-saww said: ‘Surely Al-Medina cannot be correct except with me-saww or with you-asws, and you-asws are from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, except surely there is no Prophet-saww after me-saww’.
قَالَ سَعِيدٌ فَقُلْتُ لِسَعْدٍ أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَ هَذَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ لَا مَرَّةً وَ لَا مَرَّتَيْنِ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ لِعَلِيٍّ ع.
Saeed said, ‘I said to Sa’ad, ‘You heard this from Rasool-Allah-saww?’ He said, ‘Yes, not once, and not twice (but more), saying that to Ali-asws’’.[41]
40- وَ رَوَى عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ الْبَزَّازِ رَفَعَهُ إِلَى إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ عَنْ قَيْسٍ قَالَ: سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ مَسْأَلَةٍ فَقَالَ سَلْ عَنْهَا عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَإِنَّهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَوْلُكَ فِيهَا أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ قَوْلِ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ بِئْسَ مَا قُلْتَ بِهِ وَ لَؤُمَ مَا جِئْتَ بِهِ لَقَدْ كَرِهْتَ رَجُلًا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَغُرُّهُ الْعِلْمَ غَرّاً لَقَدْ قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنْتَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي
And it is reported from Abdul Wahid Bin Ali Bin Al Abbas Al Bazaz, raising it to Ismail Bin Abu Khalid, from Qays who said,
‘A man asked Muawiya about an issue. He said, ‘Ask Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws about it, for he-asws is more learned’. He said, ‘O commander of the faithful! Your word regarding it is more beloved to me than the word of Ali-asws!’ He said, ‘Evil is what you are saying with, and blame-worthy is what you have come with. You are disliking a man Rasool-Allah-saww had fed him-asws knowledge with a feeding. Rasool-Allah-saww had said to him-asws: ‘You-asws are from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, except surely there is no Prophet-as after me-saww.
وَ لَقَدْ كَانَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ يَسْأَلُهُ فَيَأْخُذُ عَنْهُ وَ لَقَدْ شَهِدْتُ عُمَرَ إِذَا أَشْكَلَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ قَالَ هَاهُنَا عَلِيٌّ قُمْ لَا أَقَامَ اللَّهُ رِجْلَيْكَ وَ مَحَا اسْمَهُ مِنَ الدِّيوَانِ.
And Umar Bin Al-Khattab used to ask him-asws, so he would take from him-asws, and I have witnessed Umar when something was problematic to him, he said, ‘Over there is Ali-asws!’ Arise! May Allah-azwj not Make your legs stand!’ And he deleted his name from the register’’.[42]
وَ رَوَى ابْنُ بِطْرِيقٍ أَيْضاً فِي الْمُسْتَدْرَكِ مِنْ كِتَابِ الْمَغَازِي لِمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ قَالَ: لَمَّا خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِلَى غَزَاةِ تَبُوكَ خَلَّفَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع عَلَى أَهْلِهِ وَ أَمَرَهُ بِالْإِقَامَةِ فِيهِمْ فَأَرْجَفَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ وَ قَالُوا مَا خَلَّفَهُ إِلَّا اسْتِثْقَالًا لَهُ وَ تَخْفِيفاً مِنْهُ
And it is reported by Ibn Batreeq as well in (the book) ‘Al Mustadrak’, from the book ‘Al Magazy’ of Muhammad Bin Is’haq by his chain, said,
‘When Rasool-Allah-saww went out to the military expedition of Tabuk, he-saww left Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws behind upon his-saww family and instructed him-asws with the staying among them. The hypocrites gossiped slanderously and said, ‘He-saww did not leave him-asws behind except he-asws was burdensome to him-saww and as a lightening from him-asws’.
فَلَمَّا قَالُوا ذَلِكَ أَخَذَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع سِلَاحَهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ هُوَ نَازِلٌ بِالْجُرْفِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ زَعَمَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ أَنَّكَ إِنَّمَا خَلَّفْتَنِي تَسْتَثْقِلُنِي وَ تُخَفِّفُ مِنِّي
When they said that, Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws grabbed his-asws weapon, then went out to Rasool-Allah-saww, and he-saww had encamped at the cliff. He-asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! The hypocrites are alleging that you-saww rather left me-asws behind as offloading and lightening from me-asws!’
فَقَالَ كَذَبُوا وَ لَكِنِّي خَلَّفْتُكَ لِمَا تَرَكْتُ وَرَائِي فَارْجِعْ فَاخْلُفْنِي فِي أَهْلِي وَ أَهْلِكَ أَ لَا تَرْضَى يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْ تَكُونَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي فَرَجَعَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ وَ مَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لِسَفَرِهِ.
He-saww said: ‘They are lying! But, I-saww left you-asws behind for what I-saww have left behind me-saww, so replace me-saww among my-saww family and your-asws family. Are you-asws not please, O Ali-asws, that you-asws happen to be from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, except surely there is no Prophet-as after me-saww’. So, he-asws returned to Al-Medina and Rasool-Allah-saww continued his journey’’.[43]
وَ بِالْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ رُمَّانَةَ قَالَ: بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ كَانَ يَقُولُ وَ اللَّهِ مَا أَدْرِي لَعَلَّهُ سَيَكُونُ نَبِيٌّ بَعْدَ مُحَمَّدٍ فَلَقِيتُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنَ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا إِسْحَاقَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَاكَ يَذْكُرُ مَقَالَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ يَوْمَ غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ
And by the chain from Zayd Bin Rumanah who said,
‘It reached me that a man from Quraysh was saying, ‘By Allah-azwj! I don’t know, perhaps there will happen to be a Prophet-as after Muhammad-saww’. So, I met Ibrahim Bin Sa’ad Bin Abu Waqaas and I said, ‘O Abu Is’haq! I heard your father mentioned the words of Rasool-Allah-saww to Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws on the day of the military expedition of Tabuk’.
فَضَحِكَ فَظَنَّ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ مِنْ هَوًى مِنِّي فِي عَلِيٍّ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي وَ اللَّهِ مَا أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْهُ لِذَلِكَ وَ لَكِنَّهُ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ قَوْمِكَ يَقُولُ مَا أَدْرِي لَعَلَّهُ سَيَكُونُ نَبِيٌّ بَعْدَ مُحَمَّدٍ
He laughed and thought that was from imaginary from me regarding Ali-asws. I said, ‘By Allah-azwj! I did not ask you about him-asws for that, but it reached me that a man from your people is saying, ‘I don’t know perhaps there will happen to be a Prophet-as after Muhammad-saww’’.
فَقَالَ نَعَمْ أَشْهَدُ لَسَمِعْتُ أَبِي سَعْدَ بْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص يَقُولُ لِعَلِيٍّ يَوْمَ رَدِّهِ مِنْ غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ أَ لَا تَرْضَى يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْ تَكُونَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي.
He said, ‘Yes, I do testify that I do testify my father Sa’ad Bin Abu Waqas (an enemy of Ahl Al-Bayt-asws) saying, ‘I heard Rasool-Allah-saww saying to Ali-asws on the day he-saww returned him-asws from the military expedition of Tabuk: ‘Are you-asws not pleased, O Ali-asws, that you-asws happen to be from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, except surely there is no Prophet-as after me-saww’’.[44]
وَ مِنْ كِتَابِ الْفِرْدَوْسِ فِي بَابِ الْبَاءِ بِالْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْتَ أَوَّلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِسْلَاماً وَ أَنْتَ أَوَّلُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِيمَاناً وَ أَنْتَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى.
And from the book ‘Al Firdows’ in the chapter B by the chain from Umar Bin Al Khattab who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! You-asws are the first of the Muslims of Islam, and you-asws are the first of the Momineen in Eman, and you-asws are from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as’’.[45]

(The book) ‘Kunz’ Al Karajaky’ – From the judge Asad Bin Ibrahim Al Sulamy, from Umar Bin Ali Al Atky, from Muhammad Bin Ibrahim Al Samarqandy, from Muhammad Bin Abdullah Bin Hukeym, from Sufyan Bin Bishr Al Asady, from Ali Bin Hashim, from Muhammad Bin Ubeydullah Bin Abu Rafie, from his father, from his grandfather Abu Rafie,
‘The Prophet-saww gathered the clan of Abdul Muttalib-asws in the mountain pass, and on that day there were forty men. Ali-asws made a thing of a sheep for them, then cooked porridge for them, and poured the curry upon it, and left the meat upon it, and placed it forward. They ate from it until they were satiated, then he-asws quenched them one jug and all of them drank from it until they were saturated.
فَقَالَ أَبُو لَهَبٍ وَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ مِنَّا لَنَفَراً يَأْكُلُ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ الْجَفْنَةَ فَمَا تَكَادُ تُشْبِعُهُ وَ يَشْرَبُ الْفَرَقَ فَمَا يُرْوِيهِ وَ إِنَّ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ دَعَانَا فَجَمَعَنَا عَلَى رِجْلِ شَاةٍ وَ عُسٍّ مِنْ لَبَنٍ فَشَبِعْنَا وَ رَوِينَا مِنْهُمَا إِنَّ هَذَا لَهُوَ السِّحْرُ الْمُبِينُ
Abu Lahab-la said, ‘By Allah-azwj! There are persons from us, the man from them came eat the large pot, so it is not possible to satiate him and drink a jug, it will not saturate him, and this man-saww has called us and gather us upon a leg of a sheep and a jar of milk. But, he-saww has satiated us and saturated us from it, this is surely the clear sorcery (Nouzobilla)!’
ثُمَّ دَعَاهُمْ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أُنْذِرَ عَشِيرَتِيَ الْأَقْرَبِينَ وَ رَهْطِيَ الْمُخْلَصِينَ وَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى لَمْ يَبْعَثْ نَبِيّاً إِلَّا جَعَلَ لَهُ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ أَخاً وَ وَارِثاً وَ وَزِيراً وَ وَصِيّاً وَ خَلِيفَةً فِي أَهْلِهِ فَأَيُّكُمْ يُبَايِعُنِي عَلَى أَنَّهُ أَخِي وَ وَزِيرِي وَ وَارِثِي دُونَ أَهْلِي وَ يَكُونُ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي
Then he-saww called them and said, ‘Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic has Commanded me to warn my-saww near of kin and my-saww group of sincere ones, and Allah-azwj the Exalted did not Send any Prophet-as except He-azwj Made for him-as, from his-as family, a brother, and an inheritor, and a Vizier, and a successor, and a caliph among his-as family. So, which one of you will pledge to me-saww upon that he is my-saww brother, and my-saww Vizier, and my-saww inheritor besides my-saww family, and will happen to be from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, except surely there is no Prophet-as after me-saww?’
فَسَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ فَأَعَادَ الْكَلَامَ عَلَيْهِمْ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ قَالَ وَ اللَّهِ لَيَقُومَنَّ قَائِمُكُمْ أَوْ يَكُونُ فِي غَيْرِكُمْ ثُمَّ لَتَنْدَمُنَّ قَالَ فَقَامَ عَلِيٌّ ع وَ هُمْ يَنْظُرُونَ كُلُّهُمْ إِلَيْهِ فَبَايَعَهُ وَ أَجَابَهُ إِلَى مَا دَعَاهُ
The people were silent. He-saww repeated the speech to them three times and said: ‘By Allah-azwj! Either your standing one will stand or it would happen to be among others, then you will regret!’ Ali-asws stood up, and they were looking on, all of them at him-asws. He-asws pledged to him-asws and answered him-saww to what he-saww had called him-asws.
فَقَالَ لَهُ ادْنُ مِنِّي فَدَنَا مِنْهُ فَقَالَ افْتَحْ فَاكَ فَفَتَحَ فَاهُ فَمَجَّ فِيهِ مِنْ رِيقِهِ وَ تَفَلَ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْهِ وَ تَفَلَ بَيْنَ قَدَمَيْهِ
He-saww said to him-asws: ‘Come near me-saww!’ He-asws went near him-saww. He-saww said: ‘Open your-asws mouth!’ He-asws opened his-asws mouth. He-asws transferred into him-asws from his-saww saliva and spat between his-asws shoulders, and spat between his-asws feet.
فَقَالَ أَبُو لَهَبٍ لَبِئْسَ مَا حَبَوْتَ بِهِ ابْنَ عَمِّكَ إِذْ جَاءَكَ فَمَلَأْتَ فَاهُ بُزَاقاً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مُلِئَ حِكْمَةً وَ عِلْماً وَ فَهْماً فَقَالَ لِأَبِي طَالِبٍ لِيَهْنِئْكَ أَنْ تَدْخُلَ الْيَوْمَ فِي دِينِ ابْنِ أَخِيكَ وَ قَدْ جَعَلَ ابْنَكَ مُقَدَّماً عَلَيْكَ.
Abu Lahab-la said, ‘Evil is what he-saww favours the son-asws of his-saww uncle-as with when he-saww has come to you and filled his-asws mouth with saliva’. Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Filled with wisdom, and knowledge, and understanding’. He-la said to Abu Talib-asws, ‘Congratulations to you! Today you-as have entered into the religion of the son-saww of your-as brother-as, and he-saww has made your-as son-asws in front of you-as’’.[46]

And from Al Sulamy, from Al Atky, from Saeed Bin Muhammad the memoriser, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn Al Kufi, from Ubadah Al Azdy, from Kadih Al Aabid, from Ibn Lahiya, from Abdul Rahman Bin Ziyad, from Muslim Bin Yasaar, from Jabir Bin Abdullah who said,
‘When Ali-asws arrived to Rasool-Allah-saww with the conquest of Khyber. Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Had it not been that a group from my-saww community would be saying what the Christians said regarding the Messiah Ibn Maryam-as, I-saww would say regarding you-asws such words today, you-asws will not pass by any assembly except they would take the dust from beneath your-asws feet, and from the excess (water) from your-asws washing (Wud’u), to be healed with it.
وَ لَكِنْ حَسْبُكَ أَنْ تَكُونَ مِنِّي وَ أَنَا مِنْكَ تَرِثُنِي وَ أَرِثُكَ وَ أَنْتَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي وَ إِنَّكَ تُبْرِئُ ذِمَّتِي وَ تُقَاتِلُ عَلَى سُنَّتِي وَ إِنَّكَ غَداً فِي الْآخِرَةِ أَقْرَبُ النَّاسِ مِنِّي
But it suffices you-asws that you-asws happen to be from me-saww and I-saww am from you-asws. You-asws shall inherit me-saww, and I-saww shall inherit you-asws, and you-asws are from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, except surely there is no Prophet-as after me-saww, and you-asws will clear my-saww responsibilities, and you-asws will fight upon my-saww Sunnah, and tomorrow in the Hereafter you-asws will be the closest of the people from me-saww.
وَ إِنَّكَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَرِدُ عَلَيَّ الْحَوْضَ وَ إِنَّكَ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ خَلِيفَتِي وَ إِنَّكَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ يُكْسَى مَعِي وَ إِنَّكَ أَوَّلُ دَاخِلٍ الْجَنَّةَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي وَ إِنَّ شِيعَتَكَ عَلَى مَنَابِرَ مِنْ نُورٍ مُبْيَضَّةً وُجُوهُهُمْ حَوْلِي أَشْفَعُ لَهُمْ وَ يَكُونُونَ غَداً فِي الْجَنَّةِ جِيرَانِي
And you-asws will be the first one to return to me-saww at the Fountain and you-asws will be my-saww caliph at the Fountain, and you-asws will be the first one to be garmented with me-saww, and you-asws will be the first one from my-saww community to enter the Paradise, and your-asws Shias would be upon pulpits of Noor, bright of faces around me-saww. I-saww shall intercede for them and they will happen to be tomorrow in the Paradise as my-saww neighbours.
وَ إِنَّ حَرْبَكَ حَرْبِي وَ إِنَّ سِلْمَكَ سِلْمِي وَ إِنَّ سَرِيرَتَكَ سَرِيرَتِي وَ عَلَانِيَتَكَ عَلَانِيَتِي وَ إِنَّ وُلْدَكَ وُلْدِي وَ إِنَّكَ مُنْجِزُ عِدَاتِي وَ إِنَّكَ عَلِيٌ وَ لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْأُمَّةِ يَعْدِلُكَ عِنْدِي
And your-asws war is my-saww war, and your-asws peace is my-saww peace, and your-asws secrecy is my-saww secrecy, and your-asws openness is my-saww openness, and your-asws children are my-saww children, and you-asws are the fulfiller of my-saww promises, and you-asws will be to me-saww (at the Fountain), and there isn’t anyone from the community equating you-asws in my-saww presence.
وَ إِنَّ الْحَقَّ عَلَى لِسَانِكَ وَ فِي قَلْبِكَ وَ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْكَ وَ إِنَّ الْإِيمَانَ خَالَطَ لَحْمَكَ وَ دَمَكَ كَمَا خَالَطَ لَحْمِي وَ دَمِي وَ أَنَّهُ لَا يَرِدُ الْحَوْضَ مُبْغِضٌ لَكَ وَ لَا يَغِيبُ مُحِبٌّ لَكَ غَداً عَنِّي حَتَّى يَرِدَ عَلَيَّ الْحَوْضَ مَعَكَ يَا عَلِيُّ
And that the truth is upon your-asws tongue, and in your-asws heart, and between your-asws eyes, and that the Eman is mingled with your-asws flesh and your-asws blood, just as it mingles my-saww flesh and my-saww blood, and he will not return to the Fountain any hater of yours-asws, nor will anyone loving you-asws would be absent from me-saww tomorrow, he will return to me-saww at the Fountain with you-asws, O Ali-asws!’
فَخَرَّ عَلِيٌّ ع سَاجِداً ثُمَّ قَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي مَنَّ عَلَيَّ بِالْإِسْلَامِ وَ عَلَّمَنِيَ الْقُرْآنَ وَ حَبَّبَنِي إِلَى خَيْرِ الْبَرِّيَّةِ خَاتَمِ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ سَيِّدِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ إِحْسَاناً مِنْهُ إِلَيَّ وَ فَضْلًا مِنْهُ عَلَيَّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَا عَلِيُّ لَوْ لَا أَنْتَ لَمْ يُعْرَفِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ مِنْ بَعْدِي.
Ali-asws fell down in Sajdah, then said: ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Conferred upon me-asws with Al-Islam, and Taught me-asws the Quran, and Made me-asws beloved to the best of created beings, last of the Prophets-as, and chief of the Messengers-as as a Favour from Him-azwj to me-asws, as a Grace from Him-azwj unto me-saww’. Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! Had it not been for you-asws, the Momineen would not have been recognised from after me-saww’’.[47]

He said, ‘He-saww had made him-asws a caliph with that, by Allah-azwj, upon his-saww community during his-saww lifetime and after his-saww expiry, and obligated upon them obedience to him-asws. So, the one who did not testify with the caliphate being for him-asws after this word, so he is from the unjust ones’’.[48]

قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَلِمَ سُمِّيَ سَيْفُهُ ذَا الْفَقَارِ فَقَالَ ع لِأَنَّهُ مَا ضَرَبَ بِهِ أَحَداً مِنْ خَلْقِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا أَفْقَرَهُ مِنْ هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا مِنْ أَهْلِهِ وَ وُلْدِهِ وَ أَفْقَرَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ
He-asws said: ‘Because no one from the creatures of Allah-azwj was struck with it except he was impoverished from this world, from his family, and his children, and impoverished in the Hereafter from the Paradise’.
قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَلَسْتُمْ كُلُّكُمْ قَائِمِينَ بِالْحَقِّ قَالَ بَلَى قُلْتُ فَلِمَ سُمِّيَ الْقَائِمُ قَائِماً
He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! Are you-asws (Imams-asws), all of them standing (Qaim) with the truth?’ He-asws said: ‘Yes’. I said, ‘Then why is Al-Qaim-asws is named as Qaim (standing)?’
قَالَ لَمَّا قُتِلَ جَدِّيَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع ضَجَّتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِالْبُكَاءِ وَ النَّحِيبِ وَ قَالُوا إِلَهَنَا وَ سَيِّدَنَا أَ تَغْفُلُ عَمَّنْ قَتَلَ صَفْوَتَكَ وَ ابْنَ صَفْوَتِكَ وَ خِيَرَتَكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ
He-asws said: ‘When my-asws grandfather-asws Al-Husayn-asws was killed, the Angels clamoured to Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic with the crying and the wailing, and they said, ‘Our God-azwj and our Master-azwj! Will You-azwj do (something) about the ones who killed Your-azwj elite and son-asws of Your-azwj elite, and Your-azwj Choice from Your-azwj creatures?’
فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَيْهِمْ قَرُّوا مَلَائِكَتِي فَوَ عِزَّتِي وَ جَلَالِي لَأَنْتَقِمَنَّ مِنْهُمْ وَ لَوْ بَعْدَ حِينٍ
Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Revealed to them: “Calm down My-azwj Angels! By My-azwj Mighty and My-azwj Majesty! I-azwj will Take revenge from them, and even if it is after a while!”
ثُمَّ كَشَفَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَنِ الْأَئِمَّةِ مِنْ وُلْدِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ فَسُرَّتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ بِذَلِكَ فَإِذَا أَحَدُهُمْ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي فَقَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِذَلِكَ الْقَائِمِ أَنْتَقِمُ مِنْهُمْ.
Then Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Uncovered from the Imams-asws from the sons-asws of Al Husayn-asws, for the Angles. The Angels were happy with that, and there was one-asws of them-asws praying Salat. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said: “I-azwj shall Take revenge from them with that standing (Qaim) one-asws!”’[58]

(The book) ‘Al Amaali’ of the Sadouq – Ibn Saeed Al Hashimy, from Furaat, from Muhammad Bin Zuheyr, from Al Husayn Bin Ali Al Abdy, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Washid, from Muhammad Bin Rabie, from Ibrahim Bin Yazeed, from Amro Bin Dinar, from Tawoos, from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘I heard Rasool-Allah-saww saying, and he-saww was upon the pulpit, and it had reached him-saww about some people from Quraysh the denial of his-saww naming for Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’, he-saww said: ‘Community of People! Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic has Sent me-saww as a Rasool-saww to you all and Commanded me-saww to leaving behind upon you Ali-asws, as Emir (commander).
أَلَا فَمَنْ كُنْتُ نَبِيَّهُ فَإِنَّ عَلِيّاً أَمِيرُهُ تَأْمِيرٌ أَمَّرَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أُعْلِمَكُمْ ذَلِكَ لِتَسْمَعُوا لَهُ وَ تُطِيعُوا إِذَا أَمَرَكُمْ بِأَمْرٍ تَأْتَمِرُونَ وَ إِذَا نَهَاكُمْ عَنْ أَمْرٍ تَنْتَهُونَ
Indeed! The one I-saww was his Prophet-saww, so Ali-asws is his Emir, implementing the Commands of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic upon you all, and He-azwj has Commanded me-saww that I-saww should teach you that, for you to listen to him-asws, and obey when he-asws orders you with an order, you should implement it, and when he-asws prohibits you about any matter, you should desist.
أَلَا فَلَا يَأْتَمِرَنَّ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ عَلَى عَلِيٍّ ع فِي حَيَاتِي وَ لَا بَعْدَ وَفَاتِي فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى أَمَّرَهُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ سَمَّاهُ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ لَمْ يُسَمِّ أَحَداً مِنْ قَبْلِهِ بِهَذَا الِاسْمِ وَ قَدْ أَبْلَغْتُكُمْ مَا أُرْسِلْتُ بِهِ إِلَيْكُمْ فِي عَلِيٍّ
Indeed! So, no one from you should order upon Ali-asws during my-saww lifetime nor after my-saww expiry, for Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted has Made him-asws Emir upon you all and Named him-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’, and He-azwj did not Name anyone from before him with this name, and I-saww have delivered to you what I-saww have been Sent with to you regarding Ali-asws.
فَمَنْ أَطَاعَنِي فِيهِ فَقَدْ أَطَاعَ اللَّهَ وَ مَنْ عَصَانِي فِيهِ فَقَدْ عَصَى اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ لَا حُجَّةَ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَ كَانَ مَصِيرُهُ إِلَى النَّارِ وَ إِلَى مَا قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِي كِتَابِهِ وَ مَنْ يَعْصِ اللَّهَ وَ رَسُولَهُ وَ يَتَعَدَّ حُدُودَهُ يُدْخِلْهُ ناراً خالِداً فِيها.
So, the one who obeys me-saww regarding him-asws, so he has obeyed Allah-azwj, and one who disobeys me-saww regarding him-asws, so he has disobeyed Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, and there will be no argument for him in the Presence of Allah-azwj and his destination would be to the Fire and to What Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said in His-azwj Book: And the one who disobeys Allah and His Rasool and exceeds His Limits, He would Enter him into the Fire, being eternally in it, [4:14]’’.[59]

When Allah-azwj Created the skies and the earth, He-azwj Commanded a caller to call out: ‘I testify that there is no god except Allah-azwj’ – thrice, ‘I testify that Muhammad-saww is Rasool-Allah-saww!’ – thrice, ‘Ali-asws is Amir Al-Momineen-asws truly’ – thrice’’.[60]

‘From Abu Ja’far-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘I said to him-asws, ‘Why was Amir Al-Momineen-asws named as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’?’ He-asws said to me: ‘Because the Momineen are provided from him-asws. He-asws would be providing them the knowledge’’.[61]

‘Rasool-Allah-saww was in the courtyard of the house, and his-saww head was in a lap of Dahiyat Bin Khalifa Al-Kalby. Ali-asws entered and said, ‘How is the morning of Rasool-Allah-saww?’ He said: ‘good’.

Dahiya said to him-asws, ‘I would love you-asws and for you-saww be the praise I can gift to you-asws. You-asws are Emir of the Momineen and guide of the resplendent, You-asws are chief of the children of Adam-as apart from the Prophets-as and the Messengers-as, the flag of Praise would be in your-asws hand on the Day of Qiyamah. You-asws and your-asws Shias would be with Muhammad-saww and his-asws party to the Gardens, groups and groups.

He has succeeded, the one who befriends you-asws, and he has incurred loss, the one who abandons you-asws. Ones loving Muhammad-saww are ones loving you-asws, and haters of Muhammad-saww are your-asws haters, they will never attain the intercession of Muhammad-saww. Come near, O elite of Allah-azwj, and take the head of the Prophet-saww’, and he placed it in his-asws lap.

He-saww said: ‘What is this humming?’ He-asws informed him-saww the discussion. He-saww said: ‘It was not Dahiya, it was Jibraeel-as. He-as named you-asws with a name Allah-azwj has Named you-asws with, and it is which your-asws love would cast in the chests of the Momineen, and your-asws awe in the chests of the Kafirs’’.[62]

The Prophet-saww said to him-asws: ‘It did not happen to be Dihiya, and rather it was Jibraeel-as’. I-saww said: ‘O Jibraeel-as! How come he-asws is named as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’?’
فَقَالَ كَانَ اللَّهُ أَوْحَى إِلَيَّ فِي غَزْوَةِ بَدْرٍ أَنِ اهْبِطْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ فَأْمُرْهُ أَنْ يَأْمُرَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أَنْ يَجُولَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَّيْنِ فَسَمَّاهُ بِأَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فِي السَّمَاءِ
He-as said: ‘Allah-azwj Revealed to me-as during the battle of Badr: “Go down to Muhammad-saww and instruct him-saww to instruct Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws to roam between the rows!” So, he-asws was named as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’ in the sky’.
فَأَنْتَ يَا عَلِيُّ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فِي السَّمَاءِ فَأَنْتَ يَا عَلِيُّ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فِي الْأَرْضِ لَا يَتَقَدَّمُكَ بَعْدِي إِلَّا كَافِرٌ وَ لَا يَتَخَلَّفُ عَنْكَ بَعْدِي إِلَّا كَافِرٌ وَ إِنَّ أَهْلَ السَّمَاوَاتِ يُسَمُّونَكَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ.
Thus you-asws, O Ali-asws, are Amir Al-Momineen in the sky! Thus you-asws, O Ali-asws, are Amir Al-Momineen in the earth. No one will go ahead of you-asws after me-saww except a Kafir, nor stay behind from you-asws after me-saww except a Kafir, and that the inhabitants of the skies are calling you-asws ‘Amir Al-Momineen’’.[91]

‘From Ali-asws Bin Musa-asws, from his-asws father-asws, from his-asws grandfather Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws, from his-asws father-asws, from Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws, from Ali-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Dark fitna will be occurring after me-saww. He will be saved during it, the one who adheres with the Firmest Handhold of Allah-azwj’.

It was said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! And what is the Firmest Handhold?’ He-saww said: ‘Wilayah of the chief of the successors-asws’. It was said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! And who is chief of the successors-asws?’ He-saww said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen’. It was said, ‘And who is Amir Al-Momineen?’ He-saww said: ‘Master of the Muslim, and their Imam-asws after me-saww’. It was said, ‘And who is Master of the Muslims?’ He-saww said: ‘My-saww brother Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’’.[92]

‘Raising it to Muhammad-asws Bin Ali Al-Baqir-asws having said: ‘Jabir Bin Abdullah Al-Ansari was asked about Ali-asws. He said, ‘By Allah-azwj! That is Emir of the Momineen and a trial of the hypocrites and their ruination. His-asws sword is against the deviants, and the allegiance-breakers, and the renegades. I heard from Rasool-Allah-saww saying, or else may I be deaf: ‘Ali-asws after me-saww is best of the mortals. One who refuses, so he has blasphemed’’.[93]

(The book) ‘Kashaf Al Yaqeen’, from the book ‘Al Ma’arif’, compiled by Abbad Bin Yaqoub Al Rawajiny, from Al Sary Bin Abdullah Al Sulamy, from Ali Bin Kharour who said,
‘I and Ala’a Bin HIlal Al-Khafaf entered to see Abu Is’haq Al-Sabie when he arrived from Khurasan, and the discussion flowed. I said, ‘Abu Is’haq! Shall I narrated to you with a hadeeth narrated to us by your brother Abu Dawood, from Imran Bin Husayn Al-Khuzaie, and Bureyda Bin Husayb Al-Aslami?’ He said, ‘Yes’.
فَقُلْتُ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو دَاوُدَ أَنَّ بُرَيْدَةَ أَتَى عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ يَدْخُلُ عَلَيْهِ فِي مَنْزِلِهِ حِينَ بَايَعَ النَّاسُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ يَا عِمْرَانُ تَرَى الْقَوْمَ نَسُوا مَا سَمِعُوا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فِي حَائِطِ بَنِي فُلَانٍ أَهْلِ بَيْتٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَجَعَلَ لَا يَدْخُلُ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَيُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا رَدَّ ص ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ سَلِّمْ عَلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ
I said, ‘Abu Dawood narrated to me that Bureyda came to Imran Bin Husayn entering to see him in his house when the people pledged allegiance to Abu Bakr. He said, ‘O Imran! Do you see the people have forgotten what they had heard from Rasool-Allah-saww in the garden of the clan of so and so family members of the Helpers, so no one from the Muslims entered and greeted unto him-asws except he-saww responded, then said to him: ‘Greet unto Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws!’
فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَحَدٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ إِلَّا عُمَرُ فَإِنَّهُ قَالَ مِنْ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ أَوْ مِنْ أَمْرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بَلْ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَ مِنْ رَسُولِهِ
But, no one rebutted to Rasool-Allah-saww on that day except Umar. He said, ‘(Is it) from a Command of Allah-azwj, or from a command of Rasool-Allah-saww?’ Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘But, from Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww’’.
قَالَ عِمْرَانُ بَلَى قَدْ أَذْكُرُ ذَا فَقَالَ بُرَيْدَةُ فَانْطَلِقْ بِنَا إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَنَسْأَلَهُ عَنْ هَذَا الْأَمْرِ فَإِنْ كَانَ عِنْدَهُ عَهْدٌ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص عَهِدَهُ إِلَيْهِ بَعْدَ هَذَا الْأَمْرِ أَوْ أَمْرٌ أَمَرَ بِهِ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُخْبِرُنَا عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص بِكَذِبٍ وَ لَا يَكْذِبُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص
Imran said, ‘But, I do remember that’. Bureyda said, ‘Then come with us to Abu Bakr and we can ask him about this matter. So, if there was a pact with him from Rasool-Allah-saww he-saww had pacted to him after this matter, or any instruction he-saww had instructed with, so he would not inform us with a lie from Rasool-Allah-azwj nor would he lie upon Rasool-Allah-saww’.
فَانْطَلَقْنَا فَدَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَذَكَّرْنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ وَ قُلْنَا لَهُ فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص إِلَّا قَالَ لَهُ سَلِّمْ عَلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيٍّ وَ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ مِمَّنْ سَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ بِإِمْرَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
We went and entered to see Abu Bakr. We mentioned that day and we said to him, ‘No one from the Muslims had entered and greeted unto Rasool-Allah-saww except he-saww had said to him: ‘Greet to Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws’, and you were from the ones who had greeted unto him-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’?’
فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ قَدْ أَذْكُرُ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ بُرَيْدَةُ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَنْ يَتَأَمَّرَ عَلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيٍّ ع بَعْدَ أَنْ سَمَّاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِأَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَإِنْ كَانَ عِنْدَكَ عَهْدٌ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ عَهِدَهُ إِلَيْكَ أَوْ أَمْرٌ أَمَرَكَ بِهِ بَعْدَ هَذَا فَأَنْتَ عِنْدَنَا مُصَدَّقٌ
Abu Bakr said, ‘He-saww had said that’. Bureyda said to him, ‘It is not appropriate for anyone from the Muslims that he rule over Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws after he had heard Rasool-Allah-saww had named his-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’. So, if there was a pact with you from Rasool-Allah-saww to you, or any order he-saww had ordered you with after this, so you would be ratified with us’.
فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ لَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا عِنْدِي عَهْدٌ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ لَا أَمْرٌ أَمَرَنِي بِهِ وَ لَكِنَّ الْمُسْلِمِينَ رَأَوْا رَأْياً فَتَابَعْتُهُمْ بِهِ عَلَى رَأْيِهِمْ
Abu Bakr said, ‘No, by Allah-azwj! There is no pact from Rasool-Allah-saww with me nor any order he-saww had ordered me with, but the Muslims viewed a view, so I followed them with it upon their view’.
فَقَالَ لَهُ بُرَيْدَةُ وَ اللَّهِ مَا ذَلِكَ لَكَ وَ لَا لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ خِلَافُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أُرْسِلُ لَكُمْ إِلَى عُمَرَ فَجَاءَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِنَّ هَذَيْنِ سَأَلَانِي عَنْ أَمْرٍ قَدْ شَهِدْتُهُ وَ قَصَّ عَلَيْهِ كَلَامَهُمَا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ قَدْ سَمِعْتُ ذَلِكَ وَ لَكِنْ عِنْدِيَ الْمَخْرَجُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ بُرَيْدَةُ عِنْدَكَ قَالَ عِنْدِي قَالَ فَمَا هُوَ قَالَ لَا يَجْتَمِعُ النُّبُوَّةُ وَ الْمُلْكُ فِي أَهْلِ بَيْتٍ وَاحِدٍ
Bureyda said to him, ‘By Allah-azwj! That is not for you nor for the Muslims, to oppose Rasool-Allah-saww!’ Abu Bakr said, ‘I shall send for Umar for you’. He came to him. Abu Bakr said to him, ‘These two are asking about a matter you have witnessed’, and he narrated their talk to him. Umar said, ‘I had heard that, but there is a way out for me from that’. Bureyda said to him, ‘With you?’ He said, ‘With me’. He said, ‘So what is it?’ He said, ‘The Prophet-hood and the kingdom cannot be gathered in people of one household’.
قَالَ فَاغْتَنَمَهَا بُرَيْدَةُ وَ كَانَ رَجُلًا مُفَهَّماً جَرِيّاً عَلَى الْكَلَامِ فَقَالَ يَا عُمَرُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ قَدْ أَبَى ذَلِكَ عَلَيْكَ أَ مَا سَمِعْتَ اللَّهَ فِي كِتَابِهِ يَقُولُ أَمْ يَحْسُدُونَ النَّاسَ عَلى ما آتاهُمُ اللَّهُ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ فَقَدْ آتَيْنا آلَ إِبْراهِيمَ الْكِتابَ وَ الْحِكْمَةَ وَ آتَيْناهُمْ مُلْكاً عَظِيماً
He (the narrator) said, ‘It saddened Bureyda, and he was an understanding man, eloquent upon the speech. He said, ‘O Umar! Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic has Refused that upon you. Have you not heard Allah-azwj in His-azwj Book Saying: Or are they envying the people upon what Allah has Given them from His Grace? So We have Given the Progeny of Ibrahim, the Book and the Wisdom, and have Given them a grand kingdom [4:54].
فَقَدْ جَمَعَ اللَّهُ لَهُمُ النُّبُوَّةَ وَ الْمُلْكَ قَالَ فَغَضِبَ عُمَرُ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ عَيْنَيْهِ يُوقَدَانِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا جِئْتُمَا إِلَّا لِتُفَرِّقَا جَمَاعَةَ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ وَ تُشَتِّتَا أَمْرَهَا فَمَا زِلْنَا نَعْرِفُ مِنْهُ الْغَضَبَ حَتَّى هَلَكَ.
He said, ‘So Allah-azwj had Gathered the Prophet-hood and the kingdom for them’. Umar was angered until his eyes were seen to be igniting (reddened), then he said, ‘You two have not come except to cause divisions in the unity of this community and scatter its affairs’. We did not cease to recognise the anger from him until he died’’.[94]

Then he said: ‘And Bureyda Al-Aslamy said, ‘The Prophet-saww ordered their community as an example (to model upon), that they should enter and greet, greeting the one who is learned, with conviction that the successor-asws, he-asws is the Imam-asws, the custodian’’.[95]

He-azwj Said: “Am I-azwj not your Lord-azwj?” They said, ‘Yes!’ He-azwj Said: “And Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj?” They all said, ‘Yes!’ He-azwj Said: “And Ali-asws is Emir of the Momineen?” The entirety of the creatures said, ‘No’, out of arrogance, and they transgressed from your-asws Wilayah except a small number, and they were fewer of the few, and they are the companions of the right hand’’.[97]

He-asws said: ‘When Allah-azwj Took the Covenant of the offspring of Adam-as, like that Jibraeel-as descended with it unto Muhammad-saww. And when your Lord brought forth from the Children of Adam, from their foreheads, their descendants, and made them testify against their own souls: Am I not your Lord? and Muhammad is My Rasool and Ali is Amir Al-Momineen?

He-saww said: ‘From Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww’.

(The book) ‘Kashf Al Yaqeen’ – Muhammad Bin Al Abbas Bin Marwan, reliable in his book, the relied upon, from Ahmad Bin Idrees, from Muhammad Bin Abu Qasim Majaylawi, from Ibn Abu Al Khattab who said, ‘And it is narrated to us by Hammad Al Kufy, from Nasr Bin Muzahim, from Abu Dawood Al Zuhry, from Sabir Bin Abu Sakhra, from Al Ra’aly,
‘From Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and Ismail Bin Aban, from Muhammad Bin Ajlan, from Zayd son of Ali-asws, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘I-saww was sleeping in the room when Jibraeel-as came to me-saww and move me-saww with a subtle movement, then said to me-as: ‘Allah-azwj has Pardoned you-saww (your shias), O Muhammad-saww! Arise and ride and be a delegate to your-saww Lord-azwj!’
فَأَتَانِي بِدَابَّةٍ دُونَ الْبَغْلِ وَ فَوْقَ الْحِمَارِ خَطْوُهَا مَدُّ الْبَصَرِ لَهُ جَنَاحَانِ مِنْ جَوْهَرٍ يُدْعَى الْبُرَاقَ
He-as came to me-saww with an animal smaller than the mule and larger than the donkey. Its step was to the extent of the sight, for it there were two wings of jewels, called Al-Buraq’.
قَالَ فَرَكِبْتُ حَتَّى طَعَنْتُ فِي الثَّنِيَّةِ إِذَا أَنَا بِرَجُلٍ قَائِمٍ مُتَّصِلٍ شَعْرُهُ إِلَى كَتِفَيْهِ فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ قَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَوَّلُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا آخِرُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حَاشِرُ
He-saww said: ‘I-saww rode it until I-saww travelled in the valley and I-saww was with a man standing praying. His hair was to his shoulders. When he looked at me-saww, he said, ‘the greetings be unto you-saww, O first of the greetings be upon you-asws, O last of the greetings be upon you-saww, O gatherer!’
قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي جَبْرَئِيلُ رُدَّ عَلَيْهِ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
He-saww said: ‘Jibraeel-as said to me-saww: ‘Respond to him, O Muhammad-saww!’ I-saww said: ‘And upon you be the greetings, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings’.
قَالَ فَلَمَّا أَنْ جُزْتُ الرَّجُلَ فَطَعَنْتُ فِي وَسَطِ الثَّنِيَّةِ إِذَا أَنَا بِرَجُلٍ أَبْيَضِ الْوَجْهِ جَعْدِ الشَّعْرِ فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ قَالَ السَّلَامُ مِثْلَ تَسْلِيمِ الْأَوَّلِ فَقَالَ جَبْرَئِيلُ رُدَّ عَلَيْهِ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَقُلْتُ وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي يَا مُحَمَّدُ احْتَفِظْ بِالْوَصِيِّ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ الْمُقَرَّبِ مِنْ رَبِّهِ
When I-saww separated from the man and went in the midst of the valley, there I was with a man of white face, curly hair. When he looked at me-saww, he said the greetings similar to the first greetings. Jibraeel-as said, ‘Respond to him, O Muhammad-saww!’ I-saww said: ‘And upon you be the greetings, and Mercy of Allah-azwj, and His-azwj Blessings’. He said to me-saww, ‘O Muhammad-saww! Preserve the successor-asws’ – three times, ‘Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws is in proximity from his-asws Lord-azwj’.
قَالَ فَلَمَّا جُزْتُ الرَّجُلَ وَ انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ إِذَا أَنَا بِرَجُلٍ أَحْسَنِ النَّاسِ وَجْهاً وَ أَتَمِّ النَّاسِ جِسْماً وَ أَحْسَنِ النَّاسِ بَشَرَةً قَالَ فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ قَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا نَبِيُّ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَوَّلُ مِثْلَ تَسْلِيمِ الْأَوَّلِ
He-saww said: ‘When I-saww separated from the man and ended to Bayt Al-Maqdis, there I-saww was with a man, handsomest of the face, and most complete of the people in body, and most excellent of the people in appearance. When he looked at me-saww, he said, ‘The greetings be upon you-saww, O Prophet-saww! The greetings be upon you-saww O first!’ Similar to the first greetings.
قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي جَبْرَئِيلُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ رُدَّ عَلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي يَا مُحَمَّدُ احْتَفِظْ بِالْوَصِيِّ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ الْمُقَرَّبِ مِنْ رَبِّهِ الْأَمِينِ عَلَى حَوْضِكَ صَاحِبِ شَفَاعَةِ الْجَنَّةِ
He-saww said: ‘Jibraeel-as said to me-saww: ‘O Muhammad-saww, respond to him!’ I-saww said: ‘And upon you be the greetings, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings’. He said to me-saww, ‘O Muhammad-saww! Preserve the successor-asws’ – three times, ‘Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, the one-asws in proximity from his-asws Lord-azwj, the trusted upon your-saww Fountain, in charge of the intercession of the Paradise’.
قَالَ فَنَزَلْتُ عَنْ دَابَّتِي عَمْداً قَالَ فَأَخَذَ جَبْرَئِيلُ بِيَدِي فَأَدْخَلَنِي الْمَسْجِدَ فَخَرَقَ بِيَ الصُّفُوفَ وَ الْمَسْجِدُ غَاصٌّ بِأَهْلِهِ قَالَ فَإِذَا بِنِدَاءٍ مِنْ فَوْقِي تَقَدَّمْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قَالَ فَقَدَّمَنِي جَبْرَئِيلُ فَصَلَّيْتُ بِهِمْ
He-saww said: ‘I-saww descended from my-saww animal deliberately. Jibraeel-as held my-saww hand and entered me-saww into the Masjid. The rows broke for me-saww and the Masjid was full with its people. There was a call from above me-saww: ‘Go ahead, O Muhammad-saww!’ Jibraeel-as forwarded me-saww and I-saww prayed Salat (leading) with them.
قَالَ ثُمَّ وُضِعَ لَنَا مِنْهُ سُلَّمٌ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا مِنْ لُؤْلُؤٍ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي جَبْرَئِيلُ فَخَرَقَ بِي إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَوَجَدْناها مُلِئَتْ حَرَساً شَدِيداً وَ شُهُباً
He-saww said: ‘Then a staircase of pearls was placed for us from it to the sky of the world. Jibraeel-as held my-saww hand and went out with me-saww to the sky, And we touched the sky, but we found it filled with strong guards and meteors [72:8].
قَالَ فَقَرَعَ جَبْرَئِيلُ الْبَابَ فَقَالُوا لَهُ مَنْ هَذَا قَالَ أَنَا جَبْرَئِيلُ قَالُوا مَنْ مَعَكَ قَالَ مَعِي مُحَمَّدٌ قَالُوا وَ قَدْ أُرْسِلَ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ
He-saww said: ‘Jibraeel-as knocked the door. They said to him-as: ‘Who is this?’ He-as said: ‘I-as am Jibraeel-as!’ They said, ‘Who is with you-as?’ He-as said: ‘With me-as is Muhammad-saww’. They said, ‘And he-saww has already been Sent to it?’ He-as said: ‘Yes’.
قَالَ فَفَتَحُوا لَنَا ثُمَّ قَالُوا مَرْحَباً بِكَ مِنْ أَخٍ وَ مِنْ خَلِيفَةٍ فَنِعْمَ الْأَخُ وَ نِعْمَ الْخَلِيفَةُ وَ نِعْمَ الْمُخْتَارُ خَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدَهُ ثُمَّ وُضِعَ لَنَا مِنْهَا سُلَّمٌ مِنْ يَاقُوتٍ مُوَشَّحٍ بِالزَّبَرْجَدِ الْأَخْضَرِ قَالَ فَصَعِدْنَا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الثَّانِيَةِ
He-saww said: ‘They opened it for us, then said, ‘Welcome to you-saww from a brother and from a caliph, so best if the brother and best if the caliph, and best of the choice, last of the Prophets-as, there is no Prophet-saww after him-saww’. Then a stairway of ruby was placed for us-asws embedded with green emeralds and we-asws ascended to the second sky.
فَقَرَعَ جَبْرَئِيلُ الْبَابَ فَقَالُوا مِثْلَ الْقَوْلِ الْأَوَّلِ وَ قَالَ جَبْرَئِيلُ مِثْلَ الْقَوْلِ الْأَوَّلِ فَفُتِحَ لَنَا ثُمَّ وُضِعَ لَنَا سُلَّمٌ مِنْ نُورٍ مَحْفُوفٍ حَوْلُهُ بِالنُّورِ
Jibraeel-as knocked the door. They said similar to the first words, and Jibraeel-as said similar to the first words. It was opened for us-asws. Then a stairway of Noor edged around it with the Noor was placed for us-asws.
قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي جَبْرَئِيلُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ تَثَبَّتْ وَ اهْتَدِ هُدِيتَ ثُمَّ ارْتَفَعْنَا إِلَى الثَّالِثَةِ وَ الرَّابِعَةِ وَ الْخَامِسَةِ وَ السَّادِسَةِ وَ السَّابِعَةِ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى فَإِذَنْ بِصَوْتٍ وَ صَيْحَةٍ شَدِيدَةٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا جَبْرَئِيلُ مَا هَذَا الصَّوْتُ فَقَالَ لِي يَا مُحَمَّدُ هَذَا صَوْتُ طُوبَى قَدِ اشْتَاقَتْ إِلَيْكَ
He-saww said: ‘Jibraeel-as said to me-saww: ‘O Muhammad-saww! Be steadfast, and seek guidance, you-saww will be guided’. Then we arose to the third, and the fourth, and the fifth, and the sixth, and the seventh (sky) by the Permission of Allah-azwj the Exalted. There was a call with an intensely loud voice. I-saww said: ‘O Jibraeel-as! What is this voice?’ He-as said to me-saww: ‘O Muhammad-saww! This is the Voice of the Blessed Desirous to you-saww’.
قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فَغَشِيَنِي عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ مَخَافَةٌ شَدِيدَةٌ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي جَبْرَئِيلُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ تَقَرَّبْ إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَقَدْ وَطِئْتُ الْيَوْمَ مَكَاناً بِكَرَامَتِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مَا وَطِئْتُهُ قَطُّ وَ لَوْ لَا كَرَامَتُكَ لَأَحْرَقَنِي هَذَا النُّورُ الَّذِي بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ
He (the narrator) said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Severe fright overwhelmed me-saww at that. Then Jibraeel-as said to me-saww: ‘O Muhammad-saww! Go near your-saww Lord-azwj, for today you-saww have trodden a place due to your-saww prestige to Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, no one else has trodden at all, and had it not been for your-saww prestige, this Noor which is in front of me-as would have incinerated me-as’.
قَالَ فَتَقَدَّمْتُ فَكُشِفَ لِي عَنْ سَبْعِينَ حِجَاباً قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَخَرَرْتُ سَاجِداً وَ قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ رَبَّ الْعِزَّةِ لَبَّيْكَ قَالَ فَقِيلَ لِي يَا مُحَمَّدُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَ سَلْ تُعْطَ وَ اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَنْتَ حَبِيبِي وَ صَفِيِّي وَ رَسُولِي إِلَى خَلْقِي وَ أَمِينِي فِي عِبَادِي مَنْ خَلَّفْتَ فِي قَوْمِكَ حِينَ وَفَدْتَ إِلَيَّ
He-saww said: ‘I-saww went ahead and seventy veils were uncovered for me-saww. He-azwj Said to me-saww: “O Muhammad-saww!” I-saww fell down in Sajdah and said: ‘At Your-azwj service, Lord-azwj of Might, at Your-azwj service!’ He-azwj Said to me-saww: “O Muhammad-saww! Raise your-saww head and ask, you-saww will be Given, and intercede, you-saww will be Interceded for, O Muhammad-saww! You-saww are My-azwj beloved, and My-azwj Rasool-saww to My-azwj creatures, and My-azwj trustees among My-azwj servant. Who have you-saww left behind in your-saww people (as caliph) and delegated to Me-azwj?”
قَالَ فَقُلْتُ مَنْ أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنِّي أَخِي وَ ابْنَ عَمِّي وَ نَاصِرِي وَ وَزِيرِي وَ عَيْبَةَ عِلْمِي وَ مُنْجِزَ عِدَاتِي
He-saww said: ‘I-saww, ‘One-asws You-azwj are more Knowing with than me-saww. My-saww brother-asws, and sons-asws of my-saww uncle-as, and my-saww helper, and my-saww Vizier, and receptacle of my-saww knowledge, and fulfiller of my-saww promise’.
قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي رَبِّي وَ عِزَّتِي وَ جَلَالِي وَ جُودِي وَ مَجْدِي وَ قُدْرَتِي عَلَى خَلْقِي لَا أَقْبَلُ الْإِيمَانَ بِي وَ لَا بِأَنَّكَ نَبِيٌّ إِلَّا بِالْوَلَايَةِ لَهُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَ تُحِبُّ أَنْ تَرَاهُ فِي مَلَكُوتِ السَّمَاءِ
He-saww said: ‘My-saww Lord-azwj Said to me-saww: “By My-azwj Mighty and My-azwj Majestic, and My-azwj generosity, and My-azwj Glory, and My-azwj Power upon My-azwj creatures! I-azwj will not Accept the Eman with Me-azwj nor with you-saww as a Prophet-saww, except with the Wilayah for him-asws. O Muhammad-saww! Would you-saww like to see him-asws in the kingdoms of the sky?”
قَالَ فَقُلْتُ رَبِّي وَ كَيْفَ لِي بِهِ وَ قَدْ خَلَّفْتُهُ فِي الْأَرْضِ قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي يَا مُحَمَّدُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ قَالَ فَرَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي فَإِذَا أَنَا بِهِ مَعَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ مِمَّا يَلِي السَّمَاءَ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ فَضَحِكْتُ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذِي قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَبِّ الْيَوْمَ قَرَّتْ عَيْنِي
He-saww said: ‘I-saww said: ‘My-saww Lord-azwj! And how can it be for me-saww and I-saww have left him-asws behind in the earth?’ He-azwj Said to me-saww: “O Muhammad-saww, Raise your-saww head!” I-saww raised my-saww head, there I-saww was with him-asws with the Angels of Proximity from what follows the lofty sky’. I-saww smiled until my-saww front teeth were manifested. I-saww said: ‘O Lord-azwj! Today, my-saww eyes are delighted’.
قَالَ ثُمَّ قِيلَ لِي يَا مُحَمَّدُ قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ ذَا الْعِزَّةِ لَبَّيْكَ قَالَ إِنِّي أَعْهَدُ إِلَيْكَ فِي عَلِيٍّ عَهْداً فَاسْمَعْهُ قَالَ قُلْتُ مَا هُوَ يَا رَبِّ
He-saww said: ‘Then He-azwj Said to me-saww: “O Muhammad-saww!” I-saww said: ‘At Your-azwj service, O with the Might, at Your-azwj service!’ He-azwj Said: “I-azwj Pact to you-saww a Pact regarding Ali-asws, so listen to it!” I-saww said: ‘What is it, O Lord-azwj?’
قَالَ عَلِيٌّ رَايَةُ الْهُدَى وَ إِمَامُ الْأَبْرَارِ وَ قَاتِلُ الْفُجَّارِ وَ إِمَامُ مَنْ أَطَاعَنِي وَ هُوَ الْكَلِمَةُ الَّتِي أَلْزَمْتُهَا الْمُتَّقِينَ أَوْرَثْتُهُ عِلْمِي وَ فَهْمِي فَمَنْ أَحَبَّهُ فَقَدْ أَحَبَّنِي وَ مَنْ أَبْغَضَهُ فَقَدْ أَبْغَضَنِي إِنَّهُ مُبْتَلًى وَ مُبْتَلًى بِهِ فَبَشِّرْهُ بِذَلِكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ
He-azwj Said: “Ali-asws is the flag of guidance, and Imam-asws of the righteous, and killer of the immoral, and Imam-asws of the ones obeying Me-azwj, and he-asws is the word which I-azwj have necessitated the pious. I-azwj shall Make him-asws inherit My-azwj Knowledge and My-azwj Understanding. So, the one who loves him-asws, he has loved Me-azwj, and one who hates him-asws, so he has hated Me-azwj. He-asws will be Tested and Tested with it, so give him-asws the glad tidings of that, O Muhammad-saww!”
قَالَ ثُمَّ أَتَانِي جَبْرَئِيلُ ع قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي يَقُولُ اللَّهُ لَكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ وَ أَلْزَمَهُمْ كَلِمَةَ التَّقْوى وَ كانُوا أَحَقَّ بِها وَ أَهْلَها وَلَايَةَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ تَقَدَّمْ بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَتَقَدَّمْتُ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِنَهَرٍ حَافَتَاهُ قِبَابُ الدُّرِّ وَ الْيَوَاقِيتِ أَشَدُّ بَيَاضاً مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ وَ أَحْلَى مِنَ الْعَسَلِ وَ أَطْيَبُ رِيحاً مِنَ الْمِسْكِ الْأَذْفَرِ
He-saww said: ‘Then Jibraeel-as came to me-as. He-as said: ‘Allah-azwj Says to you-saww, O Muhammad-saww: and Necessitated the Word of piety for them, and they were deserving of it and rightful of it, [48:26], Wilayah of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. Advance ahead, O Muhammad-saww!’ So, I-saww went ahead and there I-saww was with a river, on its banks there were domes of jewels, and rubies, more intensely whiter than the silver, and sweeter than the honey, and more aromatic in aroma than the yellow musk’.
قَالَ فَضَرَبْتُ بِيَدِي فَإِذَا طِينُهُ مِسْكَةٌ ذَفِرَةٌ قَالَ فَأَتَانِي جَبْرَئِيلُ فَقَالَ لِي يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَيُّ نَهَرٍ هَذَا قَالَ قُلْتُ أَيُّ نَهَرٍ هَذَا يَا جَبْرَئِيلُ قَالَ هَذَا نَهَرُكَ وَ هُوَ الَّذِي يَقُولُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ إِنَّا أَعْطَيْناكَ الْكَوْثَرَ إِلَى مَوْضِعِ الْأَبْتَرُ عَمْرُو بْنُ الْعَاصِ هُوَ الْأَبْتَرُ
He-saww said: ‘I-saww struck my-saww hand and its clay was yellow musk. Jibraeel-as came to me-saww and said to me-as: ‘O Muhammad-saww! Which river is this, O Jibraeel-as?’ He-as said: ‘This is your-saww river, and it is which Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Says: Indeed, We Gave you Al-Kausar [108:1] – up to the place: the one without posterity [108:3]. Amro Bin Al-Aas, he is the one without posterity’.
قَالَ ثُمَّ الْتَفَتُّ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِرِجَالٍ يُقْذَفُ بِهِمْ فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ قَالَ قُلْتُ مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ يَا جَبْرَئِيلُ فَقَالَ لِي هَؤُلَاءِ الْمُرْجِئَةُ وَ الْقَدَرِيَّةُ وَ الْحَرُورِيَّةُ وَ بَنُو أُمَيَّةَ وَ النَّاصِبُ لِذُرِّيَّتِكَ الْعَدَاوَةَ هَؤُلَاءِ الْخَمْسَةُ لَا سَهْمَ لَهُمْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ
He-saww said: ‘Then I-saww turned around and there I-saww was with men being thrown with into the Fire of Hell. I-saww said: ‘Who are they, O Jibraeel-as?’ He-as said: ‘They are the Murjiites, and the Qadiriites, and the Harouriya, and the clan of Umayya, and the Nasibis (hostile ones) to your-saww offspring with the enmity. These five, there is no share for them in Al-Islam’.
قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي أَ رَضِيتَ عَنْ رَبِّكَ مَا قَسَمَ لَكَ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّي اتَّخَذَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلًا وَ كَلَّمَ مُوسَى تَكْلِيماً وَ أَعْطَى سُلَيْمَانَ مُلْكاً عَظِيماً وَ كَلَّمَنِي رَبِّي وَ اتَّخَذَنِي خَلِيلًا وَ أَعْطَانِي فِي عَلِيٍّ أَمْراً عَظِيماً
He-saww said: ‘Then he-as said to me-saww: ‘Are you-saww pleased from your-saww Lord-azwj what has been apportioned for you-saww?’ I-saww said: ‘Glorious is my-saww Lord-azwj Who Took Ibrahim-as as a friend, and Spoke to Musa-as in a conversation, and Gave Suleyman-as a grand kingdom, and my-saww Lord-azwj Spoke to me-saww and Took me-saww as a friend, and Gave me-saww regarding Ali-asws, a mighty matter.

O Jibraeel-as! Who is the one whom I-saww met in the beginning of the valley?’ He-saww said: ‘That is your-saww brother-as Musa Bin Imran-as. He-as said: ‘The greetings be unto you-saww, O first’. So, you will be Resurrected as the first human. And, ‘The greetings be unto you-saww, O last!’ So, you-saww have been Sent as last of the Prophets-as’. And, ‘The greetings be to you-saww, O gatherer!’ So, you-asws are the gatherer of this community.

He-saww said: ‘So who was the one I-saww met in the middle of the valley?’ He-as said: ‘That is your-saww brother Isa-as Bin Maryam-as with your-saww brother Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, for he-asws is guide of the resplendent, and Emir of the Momineen, and you-saww are chief of the children of Adam-as’.

He-saww said: ‘So, who was the one I-saww met at the door, door of Al-Muqaddas’. He-as said: ‘That was your-saww father-as Adam-as, bequeathing your-saww successor Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws goodly, and he-as informed you-saww that he-asws is Emir of the Momineen, and chief of the Muslims, and guide of the resplendent’.
قَالَ فَمَنِ الَّذِينَ صَلَّيْتُ بِهِمْ قَالَ أُولَئِكَ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ وَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ كَرَامَةً مِنَ اللَّهِ أَكْرَمَكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ ثُمَّ هَبَطَ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ
He-saww said: ‘So who are the one I-saww prayed Salat with them?’ He-as said: ‘Those are Prophets-as and the Angels of prestige from Allah-azwj, having Honoured you-saww, O Muhammad-saww!’ Then he-saww descended to the earth.
قَالَ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بَعَثَ إِلَى أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ فَدَعَاهُ فَلَمَّا جَاءَهُ قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ادْعُ عَلِيّاً فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ أُبَشِّرُكَ قَالَ بِمَا ذَا
He (the narrator) said, ‘When it was morning, Rasool-Allah-saww sent for Anas Bin Malik (a well-known enemy of Ahl Al-Bayt-asws). He was called, and came to him-saww. Rasool-Allah-saww said to him: ‘Call Ali-asws!’ He-asws came to him-saww. He-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! I-saww give you-asws glad tidings’. He-asws said: ‘With what?’
قَالَ لَقِيتُ أَخَاكَ مُوسَى وَ أَخَاكَ عِيسَى وَ أَبَاكَ آدَمَ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ فَكُلُّهُمْ يُوصِي بِكَ
He-saww said: ‘I-saww met your-asws brother-as Musa-as, and your-asws brother-as Isa-as, and your-asws father-as Adam-as, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon them-as, and all of them advised with you-asws’.

He (the narrator) said, ‘Ali-asws wept and said: ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who did not Make me-asws to be forgotten in His-azwj Presence’. Then he-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! Shall I-saww give you-asws glad tidings?’ I-asws said: ‘Give me-asws glad tidings, O Rasool-Allah-saww!’ He-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! I-saww looked at the Throne of my-saww Lord-azwj Majestic and Mighty, and I-saww saw your-asws resemblance in the high sky and He-azwj pacted to me-asws with a pact regarding you-asws’.

He-asws said: ‘May my-asws father-as and my-asws mother-as be (sacrificed) for you-saww, O Rasool-Allah-saww! And all that they were mentioned to you-saww?’ Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! The high assembly are supplicating for you-asws, and that the Chosen ones, the good, are wishing to their Lord-azwj Majestic and Mighty to Make the way to be for them to look at you-asws, and you-asws will intercede on the Day of Qiyamah, all of them would be standing on the verge of Hell’.

He (the narrator) said, ‘Ali-asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! So, who are the one who were being thrown with into the Fire of Hell?’ He-saww said: ‘Those were the Murjiites, and the Qadiriites, and the Harouriya, and the clan of Umayya, and the ones establishing the enmity to you-asws (Nasibis). O Ali-asws! They are the five, there isn’t any share for them in Al-Islam’’.[102]

(The book) ‘Kashaf Al Yaqeen’ – Muhammad Bin Al Abbas, from Ahmad Bin Idrees, from Ibn Isa, from Al Ahwazy, from Fazalah, from Al Hazramy,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘A man came to Amir Al-Momineen-asws and he-asws was in Masjid Al-Kufa, and he-asws was wearing his-asws sword. He said, ‘O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! There is a Verse in the Quran which has spoilt my religion unto me and has made me doubt in my religion’. He-asws said: ‘And what is that?’
قَالَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ سْئَلْ مَنْ أَرْسَلْنا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رُسُلِنا أَ جَعَلْنا مِنْ دُونِ الرَّحْمنِ آلِهَةً يُعْبَدُونَ فَهَلْ كَانَ فِي ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ نَبِيٌّ غَيْرُ مُحَمَّدٍ فَيَسْأَلَهُ عَنْهُ
He said, ‘Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: And ask ones We Sent from before you from Our Rasools, did We Make from besides the Beneficent, a God they should be worshipping? [43:45]. Was there any (other) Prophet-as during that era apart from Muhammad-saww, so he-saww asked him-as about it?’
فَقَالَ لَهُ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع اجْلِسْ أُخْبِرْكَ بِهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَقُولُ فِي كِتَابِهِ سُبْحانَ الَّذِي أَسْرى بِعَبْدِهِ لَيْلًا مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرامِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْأَقْصَى الَّذِي بارَكْنا حَوْلَهُ لِنُرِيَهُ مِنْ آياتِنا
Amir Al-Momineen-asws said to him: ‘Be seated, I-asws shall inform you with it, if Allah-azwj so Desires. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic is Saying in His-azwj Book: Glorified is He Who Journeyed His Servant on a night from the Sacred Masjid to Masjid Al-Aqsa Which We have Blessed its precincts, in order to Show him from Our Signs. [17:1].
فَكَانَ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ الَّتِي أَرَاهَا مُحَمَّداً ص أَنَّهُ انْتَهَى بِهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ الْمَعْمُورِ وَ هُوَ الْمَسْجِدُ الْأَقْصَى فَلَمَّا دَنَا مِنْهُ أَتَى جَبْرَئِيلُ عَيْناً فَتَوَضَّأَ مِنْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ تَوَضَّأْ
It was from the Signs which Allah-azwj Showed to Muhammad-saww is that Jibraeel-as ended with him-saww to Bayt Al-Mamour, and it is the Masjid Al-Aqsa. When he-saww was near from it, Jibraeel-as came with a container, to perform Wud’u from it. Then he-as said: ‘O Muhammad-saww, perform Wud’u!’
ثُمَّ قَامَ جَبْرَئِيلُ فَأَذَّنَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ص تَقَدَّمْ فَصَلِّ وَ اجْهَرْ بِالْقِرَاءَةِ فَإِنَّ خَلْفَكَ أُفُقاً مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ لَا يَعْلَمُ عِدَّتَهُمْ إِلَّا اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ وَ فِي الصَّفِّ الْأَوَّلِ آدَمُ وَ نُوحٌ وَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَ هُودٌ وَ مُوسَى وَ عِيسَى وَ كُلُّ نَبِيٍّ بَعَثَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى مُنْذُ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضَ إِلَى أَنْ بَعَثَ مُحَمَّداً
Then Jibraeel-as stood up and proclaimed Azaan, then said to the Prophet-saww: ‘Go ahead and pray Salat, and be loud with the recitation, for behind you-saww there is a multitude from the Angels, no one knows their number except Allah-azwj Majestic and Mighty, and in the first row are Adam-as, and Nuh-as, and Ibrahim-as, and Hud-as, and Musa-as, and Isa-as, and every Prophet-as Sent by Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted since He-azwj Created the skies and the earth up to the Sending of Muhammad-saww’.
فَتَقَدَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ غَيْرَ هَائِبٍ وَ لَا مُحْتَشِمٍ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ أَوْحَى اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ كَلَمْحِ الْبَصَرِ سَلْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ مَنْ أَرْسَلْنا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رُسُلِنا أَ جَعَلْنا مِنْ دُونِ الرَّحْمنِ آلِهَةً يُعْبَدُونَ
Rasool-Allah-saww proceeded and prayed Salat with them without any fear nor timidity. When he-saww finished, Allah-azwj Revealed to him-saww in the blink of an eye: “Ask, O Muhammad-saww, And ask ones We Sent from before you from Our Rasools, did We Make from besides the Beneficent, a God they should be worshipping? [43:45]”.
فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِجَمِيعِهِ فَقَالَ بِمَ تَشْهَدُونَ
So Rasool-Allah-saww turned to them with his-saww entirety and said: ‘With what did you testify?’
قَالُوا نَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ أَنَّ عَلِيّاً أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَصِيُّكَ وَ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ سَيِّدُ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ أَنَّ عَلِيّاً سَيِّدُ الْوَصِيِّينَ أُخِذَتْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ مَوَاثِيقُنَا لَكُمَا بِالشَّهَادَةِ
They said, ‘We-as testified that there is no god except Allah-azwj Alone, there is no associate for Him-azwj, and you-saww are Rasool-Allah-saww, and that Ali-asws is Emir of the Momineen, your-saww successor-asws, and you-saww are Rasool-Allah-saww, chief of the Prophets-as, and that Ali-asws is chief of the successors-as. Our-as Covenant was Taken upon that, with the testification to you-asws both’’.
فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَحْيَيْتَ قَلْبِي وَ فَرَّجْتَ عَنِّي يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ.
The man said, ‘You-asws have revived my heart and relieved from me, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws!’’[103]

He-saww said: ‘Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic has Said: then surely Allah, He is his Guardian, and (so are) Jibraeel and the corrector of the Momineen; [66:4] – meaning Amir Al-Momineen-asws. And the second time was on the day of Ghadeer Khumm’’.[104]

He-asws said: ‘Do you know what they will see? By Allah-azwj they will see Ali-asws with Rasool-Allah-saww – what you had been calling (yourselves) with!’ [67:27] – naming yourselves as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’.
يَا فُضَيْلُ لَمْ يُسَمَّ بِهَا وَ اللَّهِ بَعْدَ عَلِيٍّ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِلَّا مُفْتَرٍ كَذَّابٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ النَّاسِ هَذَا.
O Fuzeyl! By Allah-azwj No one will name with is after Ali Amir Al-Momineen-asws except a fabricating liar, up to this day of the people’’.[105]

‘From Abu Zarr-ra having said, ‘I-ra asked Rasool-Allah-saww’. Then he-saww mentioned what its meaning was, then he-ra asked him-saww about what would be anew after him-saww from the affairs, so he-saww informed him-asws. Then he-saww flowed for Usman. He-ra said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww!’ Then what would happen?’
قَالَ ثُمَّ يُبَايِعُ النَّاسُ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ حَتَّى إِذَا وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الصَّفْقَةُ عَلَى مَنْ صَلَّى الْقِبْلَةَ وَ أَدَّى الْجِزْيَةَ انْطَلَقَ فُلَانٌ وَ فُلَانٌ فَحَمَلَا امْرَأَةً مِنْ أُمَّهَاتِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ مَا جَرَى مِنْ طَلْحَةَ وَ زُبَيْرٍ وَ عَائِشَةَ.
He-saww said: ‘Then the people will pledge allegiance to Amir Al-Momineen-asws until when the hand-shake is obligated upon the ones praying Salat to the Qiblah, and payment of the tax, so and so (Talha), and so and so (Zubeyr) would carry a wife (Ayesha) from the mothers of the believers’ – then mentioned what would flow from Talha, and Zubeyr and Ayesha’’ (Battle of Jamal).[106]

(The book) ‘Kashaf Al Yaqeen’ – Al Husayn Bin Saeed, raising the Hadeeth to Suleym Bin Qays Al Hilali, and he mentioned what flowed at the pledging of allegiances to Abu Bakr and said, what are these words,
‘And Bureyda came until he ended up to Abu Bakr. He said to him, ‘O Abu Bakr! Aren’t you the one Rasool-Allah-saww had said to you: ‘Go to Ali-asws and greet to him-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’? You said, ‘Is it from a Command of Allah-azwj and command of His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ He-saww said to you: ‘Yes’. So you went and greeted to him-asws as such? By Allah-azwj! I will not dwell in a city you are in it!’’[107]
55- شف، كشف اليقين مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ هَمَّامِ بْنِ سُهَيْلٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْعَلَوِيِّ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ دَاوُدَ النَّجَّارِ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ ع فِي قَوْلِهِ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ ذُو مِرَّةٍ فَاسْتَوى إِلَى قَوْلِهِ إِذْ يَغْشَى السِّدْرَةَ ما يَغْشى
(The book) ‘Kashf Al Yaqeen’- Muhammad Bin Al Abbas, from Muhammad Bin Hammam Bin Suheyl, from Muhammad Bin Ismail Al Alawy, from Isa Bin Dawood Al Najjar,
‘From Abu Al-Hassan Musa-asws Bin Ja’far-asws, from his-asws father-asws, from his-asws grandfather-asws regarding Words of Majestic and Mighty: With a seal, so he attained completion [53:6] – up to His-azwj Words: When the Lote Tree was overwhelmed by what overwhelmed it [53:16].
فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ لَمَّا أُسْرِيَ بِهِ إِلَى رَبِّهِ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ قَالَ وَقَفَ جَبْرَئِيلُ عِنْدَ شَجَرَةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ لَمْ أَرَ مِثْلَهَا عَلَى كُلِّ غُصْنٍ مِنْهَا مَلَكٌ وَ عَلَى كُلِّ وَرَقَةٍ مِنْهَا مَلَكٌ وَ عَلَى كُلِّ ثَمَرَةٍ مِنْهَا مَلَكٌ وَ قَدْ كَلَّلَهَا نُورٌ مِنْ نُورِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ
The Prophet-saww, when there was an ascension with him-saww to his-saww Lord-azwj Majestic and Mighty. Jibraeel-as paused at a large tree, he-saww had not seen like it. Upon every branch from it was an Angel, and upon every leaf from it was an Angel, and upon every fruit was an Angel, and it was crowned with a Noor from the Noor of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic.
فَقَالَ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع هَذِهِ سِدْرَةُ الْمُنْتَهَى كَانَ يَنْتَهِي الْأَنْبِيَاءُ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ إِلَيْهَا ثُمَّ لَا يُجَاوِزُونَهَا وَ أَنْتَ تَجُوزُهَا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لِيُرِيَكَ مِنْ آيَاتِهِ الْكُبْرَى فَاطْمَئِنَّ أَيَّدَكَ اللَّهُ بِالثَّبَاتِ حَتَّى تَسْتَكْمِلَ كَرَامَاتِ اللَّهِ وَ تَصِيرَ إِلَى جِوَارِهِ
Jibraeel-as said: ‘This is Sidrat Al-Muntaha’. The Prophets-as from before you-saww had ended to it, then they-as could not exceed it, and you-saww will exceed it, if Allah-azwj so Desires, for Him-azwj to Show you-asws from His-azwj ‘آيَاتِهِ الْكُبْرَى’ greatest Signs. So, rest assured, Allah-azwj will Aid you-saww with the steadfastness until the Prestige of Allah-azwj is perfected and you-saww come to be in His-azwj vicinity’.
ثُمَّ صَعِدَ بِي حَتَّى صِرْتُ تَحْتَ الْعَرْشِ فَدُلِّيَ لِي رَفْرَفٌ أَخْضَرُ مَا أُحْسِنُ أَصِفُهُ فَرَفَعَنِي الرَّفْرَفُ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ إِلَى رَبِّي فَصِرْتُ عِنْدَهُ وَ انْقَطَعَ عَنِّي أَصْوَاتُ الْمَلَائِكَةِ وَ دَوِيُّهُمْ وَ ذَهَبَتْ عَنِّي الْمَخَاوِفُ وَ الرَّوْعَاتُ وَ هَدَأَتْ نَفْسِي وَ اسْتَبْشَرْتُ وَ ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ جَمِيعَ الْخَلَائِقِ قَدْ مَاتُوا أَجْمَعِينَ وَ لَمْ أَرَ عِنْدِي أَحَداً مِنْ خَلْقِهِ
Then he-as ascended with me-saww until I-saww came to be beneath the Throne, and he-as brought a green rug for me-saww, how excellent was its description. The rug lifted me-saww by the Permission to my-saww Lord-azwj. I-saww came to be in His-azwj Presence and the voices of the Angels were cut off from me-saww, and their buzz, and the fear and the dread went away from me-saww, and my-saww soul was guided, and I-saww felt happy, and I-saww thought that the entirety of the creatures had died in their entirety (i.e. complete silence), and I-saww did not seen anyone from His-azwj creatures in my-saww presence.
فَتَرَكَنِي مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ رَدَّ عَلَيَّ رُوحِي فَأَفَقْتُ فَكَانَ تَوْفِيقاً مِنْ رَبِّي عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنْ غَمَّضْتُ عَيْنِي وَ كَلَّ بَصَرِي وَ غُشِيَ عَنِ النَّظَرِ فَجَعَلْتُ أُبْصِرُ بِقَلْبِي كَمَا أُبْصِرُ بِعَيْنِي بَلْ أَبْعَدَ وَ أَبْلَغَ
He-azwj Left me-saww for as long as Allah-azwj so Desired, then my-saww soul returned to me-saww. I-saww stood. There was an inclination from my-saww Lord-azwj Mighty and Majestic that I-saww closed my-saww eyes, and all my-saww sight, and cover myself-saww from looking. I-saww went on to look with my-saww heart like what I-saww saw with my-saww eyes, but, even further and far reaching.
فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ ما زاغَ الْبَصَرُ وَ ما طَغى لَقَدْ رَأى مِنْ آياتِ رَبِّهِ الْكُبْرى وَ إِنَّمَا كُنْتُ أَرَى فِي مِثْلِ مَخِيطِ الْإِبْرَةِ وَ نُورٌ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَبِّي لَا تُطِيقُهُ الْأَبْصَارُ فَنَادَانِي رَبِّي جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ فَقَالَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى يَا مُحَمَّدُ قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ رَبِّي وَ سَيِّدِي وَ إِلَهِي لَبَّيْكَ
So that is the Word of Mighty and Majestic: Neither did the sight deviate nor did it exceed [53:17] He saw from the greatest Signs of his Lord [53:18]. And rather, I-saww was seeing in the like of an eye of the needle, and there was Noor of my-saww Lord-azwj in front of me-as, not cutting out the sights. My-saww Lord-azwj Blessed and Exalted Called out: “O Muhammad-saww!” I-saww said: ‘At Your-azwj service my-saww Lord-azwj, and my-saww Master, and my-saww God-azwj, at Your-azwj service!’
قَالَ هَلْ عَرَفْتَ قَدْرَكَ عِنْدِي وَ مَنْزِلَتَكَ وَ مَوْضِعَكَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ يَا سَيِّدِي قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ هَلْ عَرَفْتَ مَوْقِفَكَ مِنِّي وَ مَوْضِعَ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ يَا سَيِّدِي
He-azwj Said: “Have you-saww (now) recognised your-saww worth in My-azwj Presence, and your-saww status, and your-saww place?” I-saww said: ‘Yes, O my-saww Master!’ He-azwj Said: “O Muhammad-saww! Do you-saww recognise your-saww position from Me-azwj and the position of your-saww offspring?” I-saww said: ‘Yes, O my-saww Master!”
قَالَ فَهَلْ تَعْلَمُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فِيمَا اخْتَصَمَ الْمَلَأُ الْأَعْلَى فَقُلْتُ يَا رَبِّ أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ وَ أَحْكَمُ وَ أَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ قَالَ اخْتَصَمُوا فِي الدَّرَجَاتِ وَ الْحَسَنَاتِ فَهَلْ تَدْرِي مَا الدَّرَجَاتُ وَ الْحَسَنَاتُ قُلْتُ أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ يَا سَيِّدِي وَ أَحْكَمُ
He-azwj Said: “Do you-saww know, O Muhammad-saww, regarding what the high assembly are contending?” I-saww said: ‘O Lord-azwj! You-azwj are more knowing and Wiser, and You-azwj are Knower of the unseen’. He-azwj Said: “They are contending regarding the ranks and the Rewards. So, do you-saww know what the ranks and the Rewards are?” I-saww said: ‘You-azwj are more Knowing and Wiser’.
قَالَ إِسْبَاغُ الْوُضُوءِ فِي الْمَكْرُوهَاتِ وَ الْمَشْيُ عَلَى الْأَقْدَامِ إِلَى الْجُمُعَاتِ مَعَكَ وَ مَعَ الْأَئِمَّةِ مِنْ وُلْدِكَ وَ انْتِظَارُ الصَّلَاةِ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ وَ إِفْشَاءُ السَّلَامِ وَ إِطْعَامُ الطَّعَامِ وَ التَّهَجُّدُ بِاللَّيْلِ وَ النَّاسُ نِيَامٌ
He-azwj Said: “Perfection of the Wud’u regarding the Obligatory, and the walking upon the feet to the congregation(al) (Salat) with you-saww and with the Imams-asws from your-saww sons, and awaiting the Salat after the Salat, and initiating the greetings, and feeding the good, and the vigil at night while the people sleep!”
قَالَ آمَنَ الرَّسُولُ بِما أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ رَبِّهِ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ يَا رَبِ وَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ كُلٌّ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَ مَلائِكَتِهِ وَ كُتُبِهِ وَ رُسُلِهِ لا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِنْ رُسُلِهِ وَ قالُوا سَمِعْنا وَ أَطَعْنا غُفْرانَكَ رَبَّنا وَ إِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ
He-azwj Said: “The Rasool believes in what is Revealed unto him from his Lord”. I-saww said: ‘Yes, O Lord-azwj! ‘And (so do) the Momineen. They all believe in Allah, and His Angels, and His Books. They do not differentiate between any one of His Rasools’. (Allah Said): “And they are saying, ‘We hear and we obey’”. ‘Yours is the Forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the Destination’. [2:285].
قَالَ صَدَقْتَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ لا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْساً إِلَّا وُسْعَها لَها ما كَسَبَتْ وَ عَلَيْها مَا اكْتَسَبَتْ وَ أَغْفِرُ لَهُمْ وَ قُلْتُ رَبَّنا لا تُؤاخِذْنا إِنْ نَسِينا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنا إِلَى آخِرِ السُّورَةِ
He-azwj Said: “You-saww speak the truth, O Muhammad-saww! “Allah does not Encumber a soul except to its capacity. For it would be what it earned and against it would be what it earned”, and Forgiveness for them. And I-saww said: ‘Our Lord! Do not Seize us if we forget or we make a mistake. [2:286] – up to the end of the Verse.
قَالَ ذَلِكَ لَكَ وَ لِذُرِّيَّتِكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قُلْتُ رَبِّي وَ سَيِّدِي وَ إِلَهِي قَالَ أَسْأَلُكَ عَمَّا أَنَا أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنْكَ مَنْ خَلَّفْتَ فِي الْأَرْضِ بَعْدَكَ
He-azwj Said: “That is for you-saww and for your-saww offspring. O Muhammad-saww!” I-saww said: ‘My-saww Lord-azwj and my-saww Master and my-saww God!’ He-azwj Said: “I-azwj Ask you-saww about what I-azwj are more knowing with than you-saww are. Whom have you-saww made a caliph in the earth after you-saww?”
قُلْتُ خَيْرَ أَهْلِهَا لَهَا أَخِي وَ ابْنَ عَمِّي وَ نَاصِرَ دِينِكَ يَا رَبِّ وَ الْغَاضِبَ لِمَحَارِمِكَ إِذَا اسْتُحِلَّتْ وَ لِنَبِيِّكَ غَضَبَ النَّمِرِ إِذَا جَدَلَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ
I-saww said: ‘Best of its people for it. My-saww brother-asws, and son-asws of my-saww uncle, and helper of my-saww religion O Lord-azwj, and the one angered for Your-azwj Prohibitions when they are made permissible, and for Your-azwj Prophet-saww when contended, Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’.
قَالَ صَدَقْتَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنِّي اصْطَفَيْتُكَ بِالنُّبُوَّةِ وَ بَعَثْتُكَ بِالرِّسَالَةِ وَ امْتَحَنْتُ عَلِيّاً بِالْبَلَاغِ وَ الشَّهَادَةِ إِلَى أُمَّتِكَ وَ جَعَلْتُهُ حُجَّةً فِي الْأَرْضِ مَعَكَ وَ بَعْدَكَ وَ هُوَ نُورُ أَوْلِيَائِي وَ وَلِيُّ مَنْ أَطَاعَنِي وَ هُوَ الْكَلِمَةُ الَّتِي أَلْزَمْتُهَا الْمُتَّقِينَ
He-azwj Said: ‘You-saww speak the truth, O Muhammad-saww! I-azwj Chose you-saww with the Prophet-hood, and Sent you-saww with the Message, and Tried Ali-asws with the delivery and the witnessing to your-saww community and Made him-asws a Divine Authority in the earth along with you-saww and after you-saww, and Noor of My-azwj friends and guardian of the ones obeying Me-azwj, and he-asws is the word which I-azwj have Necessitated it for the pious.
يَا مُحَمَّدُ وَ زَوَّجْتُهُ فَاطِمَةَ وَ إِنَّهُ وَصِيُّكَ وَ وَارِثُكَ وَ وَزِيرُكَ وَ غَاسِلُ عَوْرَتِكَ وَ نَاصِرُ دِينِكَ وَ الْمَقْتُولُ عَلَى سُنَّتِي وَ سُنَّتِكَ يَقْتُلُهُ شَقِيُّ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ
O Muhammad-saww! And I-azwj have Married him-asws to (Syeda) Fatima-asws, and he-asws is your-saww successor-asws, and your-saww Vizier, and washer of your-saww bareness, and helper of your-saww religion, and the one to be killed upon my-saww Sunnah and your-saww sunnah. He-asws will be killed by the most wretched of this community!”
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص ثُمَّ أَمَرَنِي رَبِّي بِأُمُورٍ وَ أَشْيَاءَ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَكْتُمَهَا وَ لَمْ يُؤْذِنْ لِي فِي إِخْبَارِ أَصْحَابِي بِهَا ثُمَّ هَوَى بِيَ الرَّفْرَفُ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِجَبْرَئِيلَ فَتَنَاوَلَنِي مِنْهُ حَتَّى صِرْتُ إِلَى سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهَى فَوَقَفَ بِي تَحْتَهَا
Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Then my-saww Lord-azwj Commanded me-saww with matters and the things. He-azwj Commanded me-saww to conceal it and He-azwj did not Permit for me-saww to inform my-saww companions with it. Then the rug descended with me-saww, and there I-saww was with Jibraeel-as, and he-as took me-saww from it until I-saww came (back) to Sidrat Al-Muntaha. He-as paused with me-saww beneath it.
ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَنِي إِلَى جَنَّةِ الْمَأْوَى فَرَأَيْتُ مَسْكَنِي وَ مَسْكَنَكَ يَا عَلِيُّ فِيهَا فَبَيْنَا جَبْرَئِيلُ يُكَلِّمُنِي إِذْ تَجَلَّى لِي نُورٌ مِنْ نُورِ اللَّهِ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَى مِثْلِ مَخِيطِ الْإِبْرَةِ إِلَى مِثْلِ مَا كُنْتُ نَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ فِي الْمَرَّةِ الْأُولَى
Then he-as entered me-as to the Garden of Al-Ma’wa (shelter), and I-saww saw my-saww dwelling and your-asws dwelling in it, O Ali-asws’. While Jibraeel-as was speaking to me-saww when a Noor from the Noor of Allah-azwj Majestic and Mighty Flashed at me-saww. I-saww looked into like an eye of the needle to similar to what I-saww had looked at during the first time.
فَنَادَانِي رَبِّي جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ رَبِّي وَ سَيِّدِي وَ إِلَهِي قَالَ سَبَقَتْ رَحْمَتِي غَضَبِي لَكَ وَ لِذُرِّيَّتِكَ أَنْتَ مُقَرَّبِي مِنْ خَلْقِي وَ أَنْتَ أَمِينِي وَ حَبِيبِي وَ رَسُولِي
My-saww Lord-azwj Majestic and Mighty Called out: “O Muhammad-saww!” I-saww said: ‘At Your-azwj service my-saww Lord-azwj, and my-saww Master, and my-saww God-azwj!’ He-azwj Said: “My-azwj Mercy precedes My-azwj Wrath to you-saww and to your-saww offspring. You-saww are closest from My-azwj creatures, and you-saww are My-azwj trustees, and My-azwj beloved, and My-azwj Rasool-saww.
وَ عِزَّتِي وَ جَلَالِي لَوْ لَقِيَنِي جَمِيعُ خَلْقِي يَشُكُّونَ فِيكَ طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ أَوْ يُبْغِضُونَ صَفْوَتِي مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ لَأُدْخِلَنَّهُمْ نَارِي وَ لَا أُبَالِي
By My-azwj Mighty and My-azwj Majesty! Even if the entirety of My-azwj creatures were to meet Me-azwj doubting in you-saww in the blink of an eye, or hating My-azwj elites from your-saww offspring, I-azwj will Enter them into My-azwj Fire, and I-azwj don’t care!
يَا مُحَمَّدُ عَلِيٌّ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ سَيِّدُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَ قَائِدُ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ إِلَى جَنَّاتِ النَّعِيمِ أَبُو السِّبْطَيْنِ سَيِّدَيْ شَبَابِ أَهْلِ جَنَّتِي الْمَقْتُولَيْنِ ظُلْماً
O Muhammad-saww! Ali-asws is Emir of the Momineen, and chief of the Muslims, and guide of the resplendent to the Gardens of bliss, father-asws of the two grandsons-asws, two chiefs of the youths of the people of My-azwj Paradise, the ones to be killed unjustly’.
ثُمَّ حَرَّضَ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ وَ مَا أَرَادَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى وَ قَدْ كُنْتُ قَرِيباً مِنْهُ فِي الْمَرَّةِ الْأُولَى مِثْلَ مَا بَيْنَ كَبِدِ الْقَوْسِ إِلَى سِيَتِهِ فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ قابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنى مِنْ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ سِدْرَةَ الْمُنْتَهَى
Then He-azwj Urged upon the Salat and whatever the Blessed and Exalted Wanted, and I-saww had been closer from Him-azwj in the first time like what is between the tip of the bow to its (other) end. That is the Word of Majestic and Mighty: So he was (at a distance of) two bows or nearer [53:9] from that.
فَقَالَ وَ لَقَدْ رَآهُ نَزْلَةً أُخْرى عِنْدَ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهى عِنْدَها جَنَّةُ الْمَأْوى إِذْ يَغْشَى السِّدْرَةَ ما يَغْشى ما زاغَ الْبَصَرُ وَ ما طَغى يَعْنِي مَا غَشِيَ السِّدْرَةَ مِنْ نُورِ اللَّهِ وَ عَظَمَتِهِ.
He-azwj Said: And he had seen him in another descent [53:13] At the Lote Tree [53:14] By the Garden of abode [53:15] When the Lote Tree was overwhelmed by what overwhelmed it [53:16] Neither did the sight deviate nor did it exceed [53:17] – meaning what Al -idrat was overwhelmed from the Noor of Allah-azwj and His-azwj magnificence’’.[108]

(The book) ‘Kashaf Al Yaqeen’ – Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Muhammad Bin Suleyman, from his father,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws who then said after speech there is no need to it: ‘Ali-asws was ill, so Rasool-Allah-saww consoled him-asws and upon People-asws of his-asws Household, and ordered them (companions). So they consoled him-asws, and he-saww said to them: ‘Greet unto him-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’.
فَقَامَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَ عُمَرُ وَ عُثْمَانُ فَقَالُوا أَ مِنَ اللَّهِ أَوْ مِنْ رَسُولِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مِنَ اللَّهِ وَ مِنْ رَسُولِهِ
Abu Bakr and Umar and Usman stood up. They said, ‘Is it from Allah-azwj or from His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ Rasool-Allah-saww said to them: ‘From Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww’.
قَالَ فَانْطَلَقُوا فَسَلَّمُوا عَلَيْهِ بِإِمْرَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ وَ هُمْ عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ يَا عَلِيُّ مَا قَالُوا لَكَ فَقَالَ سَلَّمُوا عَلَيَّ بِإِمْرَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
He-asws said: ‘They went and greeted unto him-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’. Rasool-Allah-saww entered unto them and the People-asws of his-saww Household, and they were in his-asws presence. He-saww said to him-asws: ‘O Ali-asws! What are they saying to you-asws?’ They greeted unto me-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’’.
قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ إِنَّ هَذَا اسْمٌ نَحَلَهُ اللَّهُ عَلِيّاً لَيْسَ هُوَ إِلَّا لَهُ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ تَمَامَ الْحَدِيثِ.
He-asws said: ‘He-saww said to them: ‘This is a name Allah-azwj has Attributed to Ali-asws. It isn’t, except for him-asws’. Then he-asws mentioned the complete Hadeeth’’.[109]

‘From his-asws names is what Jibraeel-as had named him-asws with upon what the people have reported from Ali-asws. He-asws said: ‘I-asws entered to see Rasool-Allah-saww. I-asws found him-saww and his-saww head was in a lap of Dihiya Al-Kalby. I-asws greeted unto him. Dihiya said to me-asws, and upon you-asws be the greetings, O Emir of the Momineen, and guide of the resplendent, and killer of the allegiance-breakers, and the renegades, and the deviants’. And he said, ‘Imam-asws of the pious’, in one of the reports.
ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ تَعَالَ فَخُذْ رَأْسَ نَبِيِّكَ فِي حَجْرِكَ فَأَنْتَ أَحَقُّ بِذَلِكَ فَلَمَّا دَنَوْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ وَضَعْتُ رَأْسَهُ فِي حَجْرِي لَمْ أَرَ دِحْيَةَ وَ فَتَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَيْنَهُ وَ قَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ مَنْ كُنْتَ تُكَلِّمُ
Then he said to him-asws, ‘Come, take the head of your-asws Prophet-saww in your-asws lap, for you-asws are more rightful with that’. When I-asws near to Rasool-Allah-saww and placed his-saww head in my-asws lap, I-asws could (no longer) see Dihiya, and Rasool-Allah-saww opened his-saww eyes and said: ‘O Ali-asws! Who were you-asws speaking to?’
قُلْتُ دِحْيَةَ الْكَلْبِيَّ وَ قَصَصْتُ عَلَيْهِ الْقِصَّةَ فَقَالَ لِي لَمْ يَكُنْ دِحْيَةَ وَ إِنَّمَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ جَبْرَئِيلَ أَتَاكَ لِيُعَرِّفَكَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى سَمَّاكَ بِهَذِهِ الْأَسْمَاءِ.
I-asws said: ‘Dihiya Al-Kalby’, and narrated to him-asws the story. He-saww said to me-asws: ‘It did not happen to be Dihiya, and rather that was Jibraeel-as having come to you-asws, to let you-asws know that Allah-azwj the Exalted has Named you with these names’’.[110]

(The book) ‘Kashaf Al Yaqeen’, from compilations of one of the scholars of the adversaries – It is reported from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Al Tabari, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, and Ali Bin Al Abbas, and Ali Bin Ahmad Bin Al Hakam, and Ja’far Bin Muhammad Bin Malik, and Ali Bin Ahmad Bin Al Husayn, and Al Husayn Bin Al Sakan, altogether from Abbad Bin Yaqoub, from Al Sary Bin Abdullah, from Ali Bin Khowr who said, ‘I and Al A’ala Bin Hilal to Abu Is’haq Al Sabie when he arrived from Khurasan, he said, ‘It is narrated to me by your brother Abu Dawood, from Bureyda Bin Huseyb Al Aslamy who said,

‘I was in the presence of Rasool-Allah-saww, and Abu Bakr entered towards us. Rasool-Allah-saww said to him: ‘Arise, O Abu Bakr, and greet unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’!’ Abu Bakr said, ‘Is it from Allah-azwj or from His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ He-saww said: ‘From Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww’.

Then Umar came. Rasool-Allah-saww said to him: ‘Greet unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’!’ Umar said, ‘From Allah-azwj or from His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ He-saww said: ‘From Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww’.

Then came Salman-ra, may Allah-azwj Honour his-ra face. He-ra greeted. Rasool-Allah-saww said to him-ra: ‘Greet to Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’!’ He-ra greeted. Then came Ammar-ra. He-ra greeted, then sat down. Rasool-Allah-saww said to him-ra: ‘O Ammar-ra! Greet unto ‘Amir Al-Momineen’!’ He-ra stood up and greeted. Then he-ra came closer and sat down.

Rasool-Allah-saww faced with his-saww face and said: ‘I-saww have taken your covenants upon that like what Allah-azwj had Taken a Covenant of the children of Adam-as. He-azwj Said to them: “Am I not your Lord?” They said, ‘Yes’ [7:172], and you had asked me-saww, ‘Is it from Allah-azwj or from His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ So, I-saww said: ‘Yes, by Allah-azwj! If you were to break it, you will be committing Kufr’.

They went out from the presence of Rasool-Allah-saww, and a man from the group struck with one of his hands upon the other, then said, ‘Never, by the Lord-azwj of Kabah!’’ I said, ‘Who was that man?’ He said: ‘Do not encumber him’, and Jabir was winking at me from behind to ask him, and insisted upon it. The Bedouin said, ‘Meaning, Umar Bin Al-Khattab’’.[111]

He-azwj Said: ‘One-asws who has not associated with Me-azwj even for the blink of an eye, and did not worship any idol, nor apportioned by divining arrows, Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and their Imam-asws, and chief of the Muslins, and guide of the resplendent.

‘Huzeyfa was a governor for Usman upon Al-Madain. When Ali-asws become ‘Amir Al-Momineen’ (caliph), he-asws wrote a pact for Huzeyfa informing him with what had happened from his-asws affairs and the people pledging to him-asws.
فَاسْتَوَى حُذَيْفَةُ جَالِساً وَ كَانَ عَلِيلًا فَقَالَ قَدْ وَ اللَّهِ وَلَّاكُمْ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ حَقّاً قَالَهَا ثَلَاثاً فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ شَابٌّ مِنَ الْفُرْسِ مُتَقَلِّداً سَيْفاً فَقَالَ أَيُّهَا الْأَمِيرُ أَ تَأْذَنُ فِي الْكَلَامِ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ الْيَوْمَ صَارَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَوْ لَمْ يَزَلْ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ بَلْ لَمْ يَزَلْ وَ اللَّهِ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Huzeyfa sat up straight, and he was ill. He said, ‘By Allah-azwj! He-asws is ruling you all, the true Amir Al-Momineen’ – thrice. A youth from Persian stood up, being collared with a sword. He said, ‘O you commander! Will you permit regarding the speech?’ He said, ‘Yes’. He said, ‘Today he-asws became Amir Al-Momineen, or did he-asws not cease to be Amir Al-Momineen?’ Huzeyfa said, ‘But, by Allah-azwj, he-asws did not cease to be Amir Al-Momineen’.
قَالَ وَ كَيْفَ لَنَا بِمَا تَقُولُ قَالَ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَكُمْ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ إِنْ شِئْتَ حَدَّثْتُكَ ذَلِكَ لِعَهْدٍ عَلَيَّ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَكَ فَقَالَ الشَّابُّ حَدِّثْنَا يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ
He said, ‘And how can it be for us with what you are saying?’ He said, ‘Between me and you is the Book of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, and if you so like, I can narrated to you what of the pact of Ali-asws between me and you’. The youth said, ‘Narrate to us, O Abu Abdul Rahman!’
فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ إِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ دِحْيَةَ الْكَلْبِيَّ عِنْدِي فَلَا يَدْخُلَنَّ عَلَيَّ أَحَدٌ وَ إِنِّي أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص يَوْماً فِي حَاجَةٍ فَرَأَيْتُ شَمْلَةً مُرْخَاةً عَلَى الْبَابِ فَرَفَعْتُ الشَّمْلَةَ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِدِحْيَةَ الْكَلْبِيِّ فَغَمَّضْتُ عَيْنِي فَرَجَعْتُ
He said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said to his-saww companions: ‘When you see Dihiya Al-Kalby in my-saww presence, then no one should enter to see me-saww, and one day I came to Rasool-Allah-azwj regarding, and I-saww saw the cloth (curtain) down upon the door. I raised the cloth and there I was with Dihiya Al-Kalby. So, I shut my eyes and returned.
قَالَ فَلَقِيتُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع فَقَالَ لِي يَا بَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مِنْ أَيْنَ أَقْبَلْتَ قُلْتُ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص فِي حَاجَةٍ فَلَمَّا أَتَيْتُ مَنْزِلَهُ رَأَيْتُ شَمْلَةً مُرْخَاةً عَلَى الْبَابِ فَرَفَعْتُ الشَّمْلَةَ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِدِحْيَةَ الْكَلْبِيِّ فَرَجَعْتُ
He said, ‘I met Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. He-asws said to me: ‘O Abu Abdul Rahman! Where are you coming from?’ I said, ‘I went to Rasool-Allah-saww regarding a need. When I came to his-saww house, I saw a cloth (curtain) down upon the door. I raised the cloth and there I was with Dihiya Al-Kalby, so I returned’.
قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي عَلِيٌّ ع ارْجِعْ يَا حُذَيْفَةُ فَإِنِّي أَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ هَذَا الْيَوْمُ حُجَّةً عَلَى هَذَا الْخَلْقِ قَالَ فَرَجَعْتُ مَعَ عَلِيٍّ ع فَوَقَفْتُ عَلَى الْبَابِ وَ دَخَلَ عَلِيٌّ ع فَقَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ وَ رَدَّ دِحْيَةُ فَقَالَ وَ عَلَيْكُمُ السَّلَامُ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَنْ أَنَا
He (Huzeyfa) said, ‘Ali-asws said to me: ‘Return, O Huzeyfa, for I-asws wish that this day would happen to be a proof upon these people’. So, I returned with Ali-asws and stood at the door, and Ali-asws entered and said: ‘The greetings be unto you-asws and Mercy of Allah-azwj, and His-azwj Blessings!’ And Dihiya responded. He said, ‘And upon you-asws be the greetings, and Mercy of Allah-azwj, and His-azwj Blessings, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! Whom am I?’
قَالَ أَظُنُّكَ دِحْيَةَ الْكَلْبِيَّ قَالَ أَجَلْ خُذْ رَأْسَ ابْنِ عَمِّكَ فَأَنْتَ أَحَقُّ بِهِ مِنِّي فَمَا كَانَ بِأَسْرَعَ مِنْ أَنْ رَفَعَ النَّبِيُّ ص رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ مِنْ حَجْرِ مَنْ أَخَذْتَ رَأْسِي وَ غَابَ دِحْيَةُ فَقَالَ أَظُنُّهُ مِنْ حَجْرِ دِحْيَةَ الْكَلْبِيِّ
He-asws said: ‘I-asws think you are Dihiya Al-Kalby’. He said, ‘Yes. Take the head of the son-saww of your-asws uncle-as, for you-asws are more rightful with it than me’. The Prophet-saww quickly raised his-saww head and said: ‘O Ali-asws! Whose lap did you-asws take my-saww head from?’ And Dihiya disappeared. He-asws said: ‘I-asws think, from the lap of Dihiya Al-Kalby’.
قَالَ أَجَلْ فَأَيَّ شَيْءٍ قِيلَ لَكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ فَرَدَّ عَلَيَّ وَ عَلَيْكُمُ السَّلَامُ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
He-saww said: ‘Yes. So which thing did he say to you-asws?’ He-asws said: ‘I-asws said: ‘The greetings be unto you, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings’. So he responded to me-asws, ‘And upon you-asws be the greetings, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings, O Amir Al-Momineen!’
فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص طُوبَى لَكَ يَا عَلِيُّ سَلَّمَتْ عَلَيْكَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ بِإِمْرَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
The Prophet-saww said: ‘Beatitude be for you-asws, O Ali-asws! The Angel greeted unto you-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’, from the Presence of Lord-azwj of the worlds!’
قَالَ فَخَرَجَ عَلِيٌّ ع فَقَالَ يَا حُذَيْفَةُ أَ سَمِعْتَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَكَيْفَ سَمِعْتَ قَالَ قُلْتُ كَالَّذِي سَمِعْتَ
He (Huzeyfa) said, ‘Ali-asws came out and said: ‘O Huzeyfa! Did you hear?’ I said, ‘Yes’. He-asws said: ‘So, how did you hear?’ I said, ‘Like that which you-asws heard’’.
قَالَ فَقَالَ الْفَارِسِيُّ فَأَيْنَ كَانَتْ أَسْيَافُكُمْ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ يَعْنِي يَوْمَ بَيْعَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ قَالَ وَيْحَكَ تِلْكَ قُلُوبٌ ضُرِبَ عَلَيْهَا بِالْغَفْلَةِ لَها ما كَسَبَتْ وَ لَكُمْ ما كَسَبْتُمْ وَ لا تُسْئَلُونَ عَمَّا كانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ.
He (the narrator) said, ‘The Persian said, ‘So where were your swords on that day, meaning the day of the allegiance to Abu Bakr?’ He said, ‘Woe be unto you! Hearts were struck with the heedlessness upon it, for it was what it earned and for you would be what you earn; and you will not be Questioned about what they were doing [2:134]’’.[116]

The Seyyid said, ‘And I saw this Hadeeth of Huzeyfa as being more extensive and more than this regarding the naming of Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’, and it is by this wording. It is narrated to me by my uncle Al-Saeed Al-Muwaffiq Abu Talib Hamza Bin Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Shahriyar Al-Khazin at the Mausoleum of our Master-asws Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib, in a month of Allah-azwj Rajab, from the year five hundred and fifty four.

He said, ‘It is narrated to me by my maternal uncle Al-Saeed Abu Ali Al Hassan Bin Muhammad Bin Ali Al-Tusi, from his father Al-Saeed Muhammad Bin Al-Hassan Al-Tusi Al-Musannaf, from Al-Husayn Bin Ubeydullah, and Ahmad Bin Abdoun, and Abu Talib Bin Guroor, and Abu Al-Hassan Al-Saqqal, from Abu Al-Mufazzal Muhammad Bin Abdul Muttalib Al-Shaybani who said, ‘It is narrated to us by Abdullah Muhammad Bin Zakariyya Al-Muhariby.

He said, ‘It is narrated to us by Abu Tahir Muhammad Bin Tasneem Al-Hazramy who said, ‘It is narrated to us by Ali Bin Asbaat, from Ibrahim Bin Abu Al-Bilad, from Furaat Bin Ahnaf, from Abdullah Bin Hind Al-Jamaly, from Ubeydullah Bin Salamah, and an enumeration of this report is more than thirty five, standing in a list of worth, guaranteed as well by the order of the Prophet-saww to the ones from the Muslims presence with greeting unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’, and in it: –
أَنَّ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنَ الْيَمَانِ اعْتَذَرَ إِلَى الشَّابِّ فِي سُكُوتِهِمْ عَنِ الْإِنْكَارِ لِلتَّقَدُّمِ عَلَى مَوْلَانَا عَلِيٍّ ع بِمَا هَذَا لَفْظُهُ أَيْضاً فَقَالَ لَهُ أَيُّهَا الْفَتَى إِنَّهُ أُخِذَ وَ اللَّهِ بِأَسْمَاعِنَا وَ أَبْصَارِنَا وَ كَرِهْنَا الْمَوْتَ وَ زُيِّنَتْ عِنْدَنَا الْحَيَاةُ وَ سَبَقَ عِلْمُ اللَّهِ وَ نَحْنُ نَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ التَّغَمُّدَ لِذُنُوبِنَا وَ الْعِصْمَةَ فِيمَا بَقِيَ مِنْ آجَالِنَا فَإِنَّهُ مَالِكُ ذَلِكَ.
‘Huzeyfa Bin Al-Yamani excused to the youth regarding their silence from the denial of the advancement (of Abu Bakr and Umar and Usman) over our Master-asws Ali-asws, with what are these wordings as well. He said to him, ‘O youth! By Allah-azwj! Our hearing and our sights were seized, and we disliked the death, and the life was adorned in our presence, and it has preceded in the Knowledge of Allah-azwj, and we ask Allah-azwj of the sheathing of our sin and the Protection regarding what remain from our terms, for He-azwj is the Owner of that’’.[117]

‘I was a servant of the Prophet-saww and I was seated at the door of Umm Habeeba daughter of Abu Sufyan, and in the room there was a man from his-saww family, and that was during a day of Umm Habeeba Bint Abu Sufyan.

The Prophet-saww came to them and said: ‘There will now be entering to you all from this door, Emir of the Momineen, and best of the successors-asws, the most advance of my-saww community in being a Muslim, and the most abundance of them in knowledge. It was not long before Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws entered, and the Prophet-saww was upon his-saww cleanliness of the Wud’u. He-saww applied from the water of his-saww hand upon the face of Ali-asws until his-asws eyes were filled from the water.
فَأَشْفَقَ عَلِيٌّ ع فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ حَدَثَ فِيَّ شَيْءٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص مَا حَدَثَ فِيكَ يَا عَلِيُّ إِلَّا خَيْرٌ يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْتَ مِنِّي وَ أَنَا مِنْكَ تُغَسِّلُ جَسَدِي وَ تُوَارِينِي فِي لَحْدِي وَ تُبَلِّغُ النَّاسَ عَنِّي
Ali-asws felt compassion and said: ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Has anything newly occurred regarding me-asws?’ The Prophet-saww said to him-asws: ‘Nothing new has occurred regarding you-asws, O Ali-asws, except good. O Ali-asws! You-asws are from me-saww and I-saww am from you-asws. You-asws will wash my-saww body and cover me-saww in my-saww grave, and preach to the people on my-saww behalf’.

Ali-asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Or haven’t you preached to them?’ He-saww said: ‘Yes, but you-asws will explain to them whatever they are differing in after me-saww’’.[118]

‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘When this Verse was Revealed: But, the human being wants to undermine his Imam [75:5], Abu Bakr entered to see the Prophet-saww. He-saww said to him ‘Greet unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’!’ He said, ‘From Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ He-saww said: ‘From Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww’.

Then Umar entered. He-saww said: ‘Greet unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’!’ He said, ‘From Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ He-saww said: ‘From Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww’.

He-asws said: ‘Then it was Revealed: On that Day the human being shall be Given the news of what he had sent ahead, and delayed [75:13]. He-asws said: ‘Whatever he had sent ahead from what he had been commanded with, and what he had delayed from what he did not do of what he had been commanded with, from the greeting unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’’.[119]

(The book) ‘Kashf Al Yaqeen’, from the mentioned book, from Al Hassan Bin Ali Bin Zakariya, from Al hassan Bin Asad, from Abdullah Bin Abdul Malik, from Al Haris Bin Haseyra, from Sakhr Bin Al Hakam, from Hanan Bin Al Haris, from Al Rabie Bin Jameel, from Malik Bin Zamrah, from Abu Al Husayn who said,
‘When Abu Zarr-ra was made to travel (to Al-Rabza), he-ra and Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and Al-Miqdad-ra, and Huzeyfa, and Ammar-ra, and Abdullah Bin Masoud gathered. Abu Zarr-ra said: ‘Are you testifying that Rasool-Allah-saww had said: ‘My-saww community will return to me-saww at the Fountain upon five flags.
أَوَّلُهَا رَايَةُ الْعِجْلِ فَإِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ اسْوَدَّ وَجْهُهُ وَ رَجَفَتْ قَدَمَاهُ وَ خَفَقَتْ أَحْشَاؤُهُ وَ فُعِلَ ذَلِكَ بِتَبَعِهِ ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةُ فِرْعَوْنِ أُمَّتِي فَإِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ اسْوَدَّ وَجْهُهُ وَ رَجَفَتْ قَدَمَاهُ وَ خَفَقَتْ أَحْشَاؤُهُ وَ فُعِلَ ذَلِكَ بِتَبَعِهِ
The first of these is the calf. When I-saww hold his hand, his face would darken, and his feet would tremble, and his insides would throb, and that would be done with his followers (as well). Then there would return to me-asws the flag of the Pharaoh-la of this community. When I-saww hold his hand, his face would darken, and his feet would tremble, and his insides would throb, and that would (also) be done with his followers.
ثُمَّ يَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةُ الْمُخْدَجِ فَإِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ اسْوَدَّ وَجْهُهُ وَ ارْتَعَدَتْ قَدَمَاهُ وَ خَفَقَتْ أَحْشَاؤُهُ وَ فُعِلَ ذَلِكَ بِتَبَعِهِ فَأَقُولُ لَهُمُ اسْلُكُوا سَبِيلَ أَصْحَابِكُمْ فَيَنْصَرِفُونَ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُهُمْ لَا يَطْعَمُونَ مِنْهُ قَطْرَةً وَ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ الرَّايَةَ الرَّابِعَةَ
Then the flag of Al-Mukhdaj. When I-saww hold his hand, his face would darken, and his feet would tremble, and his insides would throb, and that would be done with his followers (as well). I-saww shall say to them: ‘Travel the way of your master!’ They would be leaving thirsty, remaining thirsty, darkened of faces, not been fed (quenched) from it even a drop’. And he-saww did not mention the fourth flag.
ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا هَذَا لَفْظُهُ ثُمَّ يَرِدُ عَلَيَّ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ قَائِدُ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ فَأَقُومُ فَآخُذُ بِيَدِهِ فَيَبْيَضُّ وَجْهُهُ وَ وُجُوهُ أَصْحَابِهِ فَأَقُولُ بِمَا ذَا خَلَفْتُمُونِي بَعْدِي فَيَقُولُونَ اتَّبَعْنَا الْأَكْبَرَ وَ صَدَّقْنَاهُ وَ وَازَرْنَا الْأَصْغَرَ وَ نَصَرْنَاهُ وَ قُتِلْنَا مَعَهُ
Then he-saww said what are this wording: ‘Then Ali Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and guide of the resplendent, so I-saww shall stand and hold his-asws hand. His-asws face would brighten and (so will) faces of his-asws companions. I-saww shall say: ‘What is that you all replaced me-saww after me-saww?’ They said, ‘We followed the greater (weighty thing), and we ratified it, and we supported the smaller (weighty thing) and helped him-asws and fought alongside him-asws.
فَأَقُولُ رُدُّوا فَيَشْرَبُونَ مِنْهُ شَرْبَةً لَا يَظْمَئُونَ بَعْدَهَا أَبَداً فَيَنْصَرِفُونَ رِوَاءً مَرْوِيِّينَ تُرَى وَجْهُ إِمَامِهِمْ كَالشَّمْسِ الطَّالِعَةِ وَ وُجُوهُهُمْ كَالْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ كَأَضْوَاء أَنْجُمٍ فِي السَّمَاءِ
I-saww shall say: ‘Return (to me-saww)!’ They would be drinking from it a drink, they will not be thirsty, ever, and they would be leaving saturated, being saturated. You will see the face of their Imam-asws being like the emerging sun, and their faces would be like the full moon on the night of the full moon, like the illumination of the stars in the sky’’.

Abu Zarr-ra said to Ali-asws, and Al-Miqdad-ra, and Ammar-ra, and Huzeyfa, and Ibn Masoud, ‘Aren’t you testifying upon that?’ They said, ‘Yes!’ He-ra said, ‘And I-ra am upon that, from the testifiers’. And that is the Word of Mighty and Majestic: On the Day faces would be whitened and faces would be blackened. [3:106]’’.[120]

The Prophet-saww struck her back and said: ‘Do not hurt me-saww regarding my-saww brother-asws, for he-asws is Amir Al-Momineen, and chief of the Muslims, and guide of the resplendent. Allah-azwj would Make him-asws to be seated upon the Bridge on the Day of Qiyamah, so he-asws will enter his-asws friends into the Paradise, and his-asws enemies into the Fire’’.[122]

I said, ‘O Allah (s.w.t.)! Make it to be from my people’. It was not long before Ali Bin Abu Talib-asws entered from the door, and Rasool-Allah-saww was with Wud’u, so he-saww applied the water upon the face of Amir Al-Momineen-asws until it filled up his-asws eyes.

Tafseer Al Ayyashi – From Jabir who said,
‘I said to Abu Ja’far-asws, ‘When was Amir Al-Momineen-asws named as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’?’
قَالَ وَ اللَّهِ نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ ص وَ أَشْهَدَهُمْ عَلى أَنْفُسِهِمْ أَ لَسْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ أَنَّ عَلِيّاً أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَسَمَّاهُ اللَّهُ وَ اللَّهِ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ.
He-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! This Verse was Revealed unto Muhammad-saww: and Made them testify against their own selves: “Am I not your Lord?” [7:172], and that Muhammad-saww is a Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj, and that Ali-asws is ‘Amir Al-Momineen’?” So, by Allah-azwj! Allah-azwj had Named him-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’’.[129]
وَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع يَا جَابِرُ لَوْ يَعْلَمُ الْجُهَّالُ مَتَى سُمِّيَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيٌّ لَمْ يُنْكِرُوا حَقَّهُ قَالَ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ مَتَى سُمِّيَ
And from Jabir who said,
‘Abu Ja’far-asws said to me: ‘O Jabir! If the ignoramuses were to know when Ali-asws was named as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’, they would not deny his-asws rights’. I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! When was he-asws named (as such)?’
فَقَالَ لِي قَوْلُهُ وَ إِذْ أَخَذَ رَبُّكَ مِنْ بَنِي آدَمَ إِلَى أَ لَسْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولِي وَ أَنَّ عَلِيّاً أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
He-asws said to me: ‘His-azwj Words: And when your Lord Seized from the Children of Adam, – up to His-azwj Words: “Am I not your Lord?” [7:172], and that Muhammad-saww is My-azwj Rasool-saww, and Ali-asws is ‘Amir Al-Momineen’?”
قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي يَا جَابِرُ هَكَذَا وَ اللَّهِ جَاءَ بِهَا مُحَمَّدٌ ص.
He (the narrator) said, ‘Then he-asws said to me: ‘O Jabir! By Allah-azwj, that is how Muhammad-saww came with it’’.[130]

(The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub – It is reported by a group of the trustworthy ones, from Al Amsh, from Abayah Al Asadi,
‘From Ali-asws.
And from Al Lays, from Mujahid and Al Sudy, from Abu Malik, and Ibn Abu Layli, from Dawood Bin Ali, from his father, and Ibn Jareeh, from Ata’a, and Ikrimaj, and Saeed Bin Jubeyr, all of them from Ibn Abbas. And it is reported by Al Awwam Bin Hawshab, from Mujahid. And it is reported by Al Amsh, from Zayd Bin Wahab, from Juzeyfa.
‘All of them from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘Allah-azwj the Exalted has not Revealed any Verse in the Quran where is ‘O you those who believe!’ except and Ali-asws is their commander and their noblest’’.[131]
وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ حُذَيْفَةَ إِلَّا كَانَ لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ لُبُّهَا وَ لُبَابُهَا.
And in a report of Huzeyfa, ‘Except for Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws was its flesh and its core’’.[132]
وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ إِلَّا عَلِيٌّ رَأْسُهَا وَ أَمِيرُهَا.
And in a report, ‘Except and Ali-asws is their head and their commander’’.[133]
و في رواية موسى القطان و وكيع بن الجراح أميرها و شريفها لأنه أول المؤمنين إيمانا.
And in a report of Musa Al-Qattan, and Wakie Bin Al-Jarah, ‘Their commander and their noblest because he-asws is the first of the Momineen in Eman’’.[134]
وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الثَّقَفِيِّ وَ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ وَ ابْنِ بَطَّةَ الْعُكْبَرِيِّ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ إِلَّا عَلِيٌّ رَأْسُهَا وَ شَرِيفُهَا وَ أَمِيرُهَا.
And in a report of Ibrahim Al Saqafy, and Ahmad Bin Hanbal, and Ibn Battah Al Akbari, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas, ‘Except and Ali-asws is their head and their noblest and their commander’’.[135]
وَ فِي صَحِيفَةِ الرِّضَا ع لَيْسَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِلَّا فِي حَقِّنَا وَ لَا فِي التَّوْرَاةِ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِلَّا فِينَا.
And in (the book) ‘Saheefa Al-Reza-asws’ – ‘There isn’t in the Quran: ‘O you those who believe’, except it is in our-asws right, nor is there in the Torah: ‘O you people’, except it is regarding us-asws’’.[136]
وَ فِي تَفْسِيرِ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ: مَا كَانَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا فَإِنَّ لِعَلِيٍّ سَابِقَةَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ لِأَنَّهُ سَبَقَهُمْ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ فَسَمَّاهُ اللَّهُ فِي تِسْعٍ وَ ثَمَانِينَ مَوْضِعاً أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ سَيِّدَ الْمُخَاطَبِينَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الدِّينِ.
And in the Tafseer of Mujahid, said, ‘There was not in the Quran: ‘O you those who believe!’, so for Ali-asws is a precedence of this Verse because he-asws preceded them to Al-Islam. Allah-azwj Named him-asws in eighty nine places as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’, and ‘Chief of the Addressed ones’ – up to the Day of the religion (Qiyamah)’’.[137]
الصَّادِقُ ع وَ أَوْفُوا بِعَهْدِ اللَّهِ إِلَى أَرْبَعِ آيَاتٍ نَزَلَتْ فِي وَلَايَةِ عَلِيٍّ ع وَ مَا كَانَ مِنْ قَوْلِهِ ص سَلِّمُوا عَلَى عَلِيٍّ بِإِمْرَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ.
Al-Sadiq-asws: And fulfil the Covenant of Allah [16:91], up to four Verses were Regarding the Wilayah of Ali-asws, and what was from his-saww words: ‘Greet unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’!’’[138]
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى وَ لَوْ أَلْقى مَعاذِيرَهُ قَالَ نَزَلَتْ فِي رَجُلٍ أَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنْ يُسَلِّمَ عَلَى عَلِيٍّ بِإِمْرَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَلَمَّا قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص تَرَكَ مَا أَمَرَهُ بِهِ وَ مَا وَفَى.
Muhammad Bin Muslim,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws regarding Words of the Exalted: And even though he casts his excuses [75:15]. He-asws said: ‘It was regarding a man Rasool-Allah-saww had ordered him to greet unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’. So, when Rasool-Allah-saww passed away, he neglected what he had been ordered with and was not loyal’’.[139]
وَ رَوَى عُلَمَاؤُهُمْ كَالْمِنْقَرِيِّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ إِلَى عِمْرَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ وَ رَوَى يُوسُفُ بْنُ كُلَيْبٍ الْمَسْعُودِيُّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ أَبِي دَاوُدَ عَنْ بُرَيْدَةَ وَ رَوَى عَبَّادُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْأَسَدِيُّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ دَاوُدَ السَّبِيعِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي بُرَيْدَةَ أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالَ اذْهَبْ وَ سَلِّمْ عَلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ أَنْتَ حَيٌّ قَالَ وَ أَنَا حَيٌّ ثُمَّ جَاءَ عُمَرُ فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ.
And it is reported by their scholar like Al Minqary, by his chain to Imran Bin Bureyda Al Aslamy, and it is reported by Yusuf Bin Kuleyb Al Masoudy, by his chain from Abu Dawood, from Bureyda, and it is reported by Abbad and Yaqoub Al Asady, from Dawood Al Sabie, from Abu Bureyda,
‘Abu Bakr entered to see Rasool-Allah-saww. He-saww said: ‘Go and greet unto Amir Al-Momineen!’ He said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! And you-saww are still alive?’ He-saww said: ‘And I-saww am still alive’. Then Umar came, and he-saww said to him similar to that’’.[140]
وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ السَّبِيعِيِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ عُمَرُ وَ مَنْ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ عَنْ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ وَ أَمْرِ رَسُولِهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ.
And in a report of Al Sabie, ‘Umar said, ‘And who is Amir Al-Momineen?’ He-saww said: ‘Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’. He said, ‘From a Command of Allah-azwj and command of His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ He-saww said: ‘Yes’’.[141]

Ibrahim Al Saqafi, from Abdullah Bin Jabalah Al Kinany, from Zareeh Al Muhariby, from Al Sumali,
‘From Al-Sadiq-asws: ‘Bureyda was absent being at Syria. (When) he arrived, and the people had pledged allegiance to Abu Bakr, he went to him in his gathering. He said, ‘O Abu Bakr! Have you forgotten our greeting unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’, as an Obligation from Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww?’
قَالَ يَا بُرَيْدَةُ إِنَّكَ غِبْتَ وَ شَهِدْنَا وَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحْدِثُ الْأَمْرَ بَعْدَ الْأَمْرِ وَ لَمْ يَكُنِ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى يَجْمَعُ لِأَهْلِ هَذَا الْبَيْتِ النُّبُوَّةَ وَ الْمُلْكَ وَ لَمْ يُجَوِّزْ أَصْحَابُنَا أَنْ يُطْلَقَ هَذَا اللَّفْظُ لِغَيْرِهِ مِنَ الْأَئِمَّةِ ع.
He said, ‘O Bureyda! You were absent and we were present, and Allah-azwj has Brought about the matter after the matter, and Allah-azwj the Exalted was not going to Gather for the People-asws of this Household, the Prophet-hood and the kingdom’. And it is not allowed for our companions to attribute this word (Amir Al-Momineen) for other than the Imams-asws’’.[142]
وَ قَالَ رَجُلٌ لِلصَّادِقِ ع يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقَالَ مَهْ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَرْضَى بِهَذِهِ التَّسْمِيَةِ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا ابْتَلَاهُ بِبَلَاءِ أَبِي جَهْلٍ.
And a man said to Al-Sadiq-asws, ‘O Amir Al-Momineen!’ He-asws said: ‘Shh!’ He-asws was not pleased with this naming be for anyone except he would be tried with an affliction of Abu Jahl-la’’.[143]
أَبَانُ بْنُ الصَّلْتِ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع سُمِّيَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنَّمَا هُوَ مِنْ مِيرَةِ الْعِلْمِ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ الْعُلَمَاءَ مِنْ عِلْمِهِ امْتَارُوا وَ مِنْ مِيرَتِهِ اسْتَعْمَلُوا.
Aban Bin Al Salt,
‘From Al-Sadiq-asws: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws was named (as such), rather he-asws was a provider of the knowledge, and that is because the scholars are collecting from his-asws knowledge, and from his-asws provision they are utilising’’.[144]
سَلْمَانُ سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ص فَقَالَ: إِنَّهُ يَمِيرُهُمُ الْعِلْمَ يُمْتَارُ مِنْهُ وَ لَا يُمْتَارُ مِنْ أَحَدٍ وَ قَدْ ذَكَرْنَا هَذَا الْمَعْنَى فِي بَابِ مَوْلِدِهِ.
Salman-ra asked the Prophet-saww. He-saww said: ‘He-asws is providing them the knowledge. They are collecting from him-asws and are not collecting from anyone’, and we have mentioned this meaning in the chapter of his-asws birth’’.[145]
وَ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ إِنَّمَا سُمِّيَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ لِأَنَّهُ أَوَّلُ النَّاسِ إِيمَاناً.
And Ibn Abbas said, ‘But rather he-asws is named as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’ because he-asws is the first of the people in Eman’’.[146]
وَ ذَكَرَ الْخَطِيبُ فِي ثَلَاثَةِ مَوَاضِعَ مِنْ تَارِيخِ بَغْدَادَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص قَالَ يَوْمَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَ هُوَ آخِذٌ بِيَدِ عَلِيٍّ هَذَا أَمِيرُ الْبَرَرَةِ وَ قَاتِلُ الْكَفَرَةِ مَنْصُورٌ مَنْ نَصَرَهُ مَخْذُولٌ مَنْ خَذَلَهُ يَمُدُّ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ.
And it is mentioned by Al Khateed in three places from the (book) ‘Tareekh Baghdad’,
‘The Prophet-saww said on the day of Al-Hudeybiya, and he-saww had held a hand of Ali-asws: ‘This is Emir of the righteous, and killer of the Kafirs. Helped is the one helping him-asws, and Abandoned is the one abandoning him-asws’ – raising his-saww voice with it’’.[147]
أَحْمَدُ فِي مُسْنَدِ الْأَخْبَارِ وَ أَبُو يُوسُفَ النَّسَوِيُّ فِي الْمَعْرِفَةِ وَ التَّارِيخِ وَ الألكاني [اللَّالِكَائِيُ] وَ أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ الألكاني [اللَّالِكَائِيُ] فِي الشَّرْحِ عَنْ بُرَيْدَةَ وَ الْبَرَاءِ قَالا بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بَعْثَيْنِ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ عَلَى أَحَدِهِمَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ عَلَى الْآخَرِ خَالِدُ بْنُ وَلِيدٍ وَ قَالَ ص إِذَا الْتَقَيْتُمْ فَعَلِيٌّ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَ إِذَا افْتَرَقْتُمَا فَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى جُنْدِهِ فَكَانَ يُؤَمِّرُهُ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَ لَا يُؤَمَّرُ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ.
Ahmad in (the book) ‘Musnad Al Akhbaar’, and Abu Yusuf Al Nasawy in (the book) ‘Al Ma’arifa’, and (the book) ‘Al Tareekh’, and Al Alkany, and Abu Al Qaim Al Alkany in (the book) ‘Al Sharh, from Bureyda and Al Bara’a both having said,
‘Rasool-Allah-azwj Sent two military detachments to Al Yemen. (The commander) upon one of them was Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and upon the other was Khalid Bin Waleed, and he-saww said: ‘When you two meet, then Ali-asws would be (commander) upon the people, and when you are separate, then each one is (commander) upon his army’. He-saww used to make him-asws the commander upon the people in those days, and did not make anyone as commander upon him-asws’’.[148]

فَدَعَا نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ بِسَبْعَةِ رَهْطٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا دَعَوْتُكُمْ لِتَكُونُوا شُهَدَاءَ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَقَمْتُمْ أَمْ كَتَمْتُمْ
The Prophet-saww of Allah-azwj a group of seven. He-saww said: ‘But rather, I-saww have called you to be witnesses of Allah-azwj in His-azwj earth whether you will be standing or concealing’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ قُمْ فَسَلِّمْ عَلَى عَلِيٍّ بِإِمْرَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقَالَ أَ عَنْ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ وَ رَسُولِهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَامَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ بِإِمْرَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Then he-saww said: ‘O Abu Bakr! Stand and greet unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’!’ He said, ‘Is it from a Command of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ He-saww said: ‘Yes’. So, he greeted unto him-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا عُمَرُ قُمْ فَسَلِّمْ عَلَى عَلِيٍّ بِإِمْرَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقَالَ أَ عَنْ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ وَ رَسُولِهِ نُسَمِّيهِ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَامَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ

Then he-saww said to Al Miqdad Bin Al-Aswad Al-Kindy-ra: ‘Stand and greet unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’!’ He-ra stood up and greeted, and did not say like what the two men before him-ra had said.

Then he-saww said to Bureyda: ‘Stand and greet unto Amir Al-Momineen-asws!’ And Bureyda was youngest of the group. He stood up and greeted.

‘From Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws having said: ‘I-asws entered to see Rasool-Allah-saww before the veiling (for the women) was struck (Revealed), and he-saww was in the house of Ayesha. I-asws sat down between him-asws and her. She said, ‘O son-asws of Abu Talib-asws! You-asws could not find any place for your-asws backside apart from my thigh? Get away from me!’

Rasool-Allah-saww struck between her shoulders, then said to her: ‘Woe be unto you! What are you wanting from Amir Al-Momineen, and chief of the Muslims, and guide of the resplendent?’’[150]

‘I attended him during his death and Jabir Al-Jufy was by his head. He thought of narrating but was not able, and Muhammad Bin Jabir asked him. He said, ‘I said, ‘O Dawood! Narrate to us the Hadeeth which I want.

He said, ‘It is narrated to me by Imran Bin Husayn Al-Khuzaie that Rasool-Allah-saww ordered so and so (Abu Bakr) and so and so (Umar), to greet unto Ali-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’. They said, ‘From Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww?’ He-saww said: ‘From Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Rasool-saww’.
ثُمَّ أَمَرَ حُذَيْفَةَ وَ سَلْمَانَ فَسَلَّمَا عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ الْمِقْدَادَ فَسَلَّمَ وَ أَمَرَ بُرَيْدَةَ أَخِي وَ كَانَ أَخَاهُ لِأُمِّهِ فَقَالَ إِنَّكُمْ قَدْ سَأَلْتُمُونِي مَنْ وَلِيُّكُمْ بَعْدِي وَ قَدْ أَخْبَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ وَ قَدْ أَخَذْتُ عَلَيْكُمُ الْمِيثَاقَ كَمَا أَخَذَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَلَى بَنِي آدَمَ أَ لَسْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ قالُوا بَلى وَ ايْمُ اللَّهِ لَئِنْ نَقَضْتُمُوهَا لَتَكْفُرُنَ.
Then he-saww ordered Huzeyfa and Salman-ra. They both greeted to him-asws. Then he-saww ordered Miqdad-ra, so he-ra greeted. And he-saww ordered Bureyda, my brother, and I was his brother to his mother. He-saww said: ‘You had asked me-saww who will be your ruler after me-saww, and I-saww have informed you all with it, and I-saww have taken the covenant upon you, like what Allah-azwj the Exalted had Taken upon the children of Adam-as: “Am I not your Lord?” They said, ‘Yes’ [7:172]. And I-saww swear by Allah-azwj! If you were to break it, you would be committing Kufr’’.[151]

(The book) ‘Al Fazaail’ of Ibn Shazan, (and) the book ‘Al Rowza’, from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws came, so they said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Amir Al-Momineen has come’. He-saww said: ‘Surely Ali-asws has been named as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’ before me-saww’. It was said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Before you-saww?’ He-saww said: ‘And (even) before Isa-as and Musa-as’. They said, ‘And (even) before Isa-as and Musa-as?’ He-saww said: ‘And (even) before Suleyman-as and Dawood-as’, and he-saww did not stop until he-saww counted the Prophets-as, all of them-as, up to Adam-as.

Then he-saww said: ‘Surely, when Allah-azwj Created Adam-as as clay, Created a jewel from his-as eyes. It glorified Allah-azwj and extolled His-azwj Holiness. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said: “I-azwj shall Settle you into a man, I-azwj shall Make him-asws to be an Emir (commander) of the creatures in their entirety!”
فَلَمَّا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أَسْكَنَ الدُّرَّةَ فِيهِ فَسُمِّيَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَبْلَ خَلْقِ آدَمَ.
When Allah-azwj Created Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, the jewel was settled inside him-asws. So, he-asws was named as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’ before the Creation of Adam-as’’.[152]

(The books) ‘Kunz Jamie Al Fawaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat Al Zaahira’ – It is reported by Al Husayn, author of the book ‘Al Bahs’,
Attributing to Al-Baqir-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws was asked about Words of Exalted: then ask those who have read the Book from before you. The Truth has come to you from your Lord, [10:94], ‘Who are they?’

He-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘When there was an ascension with me-saww to the fourth sky, Jibraeel-as proclaimed Azaan and Iqaamah and gathered the Prophets-as, and the truthful, and the martyrs, and the Angels, and I-saww went ahead and prayed Salat (leading) them.

When I-saww finished, Jibraeel-as said: ‘Say to them what they have testified with?’ They said, ‘We testified that there is no god except Allah-azwj, and you-saww are Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj, and Ali-asws is Amir Al-Momineen’’.[154]

And it is reported by the sheykh, the jurist Muhammad Bin Ja’far, and Hadeeth attributed from Anas Bin Malik (well-known fabricator) who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said to Ali-asws: ‘O Ali-asws! Beatitude is for one who loves you-asws and woe is for the one hating you-asws and he has lied with you-asws. You-asws are the flag of this community. One who loves you-asws is successful, and one who hates you-asws is destroyed.

O Ali-asws! I-saww am the city and you-asws are the gate. O Ali-asws! You-asws are Emir of the Momineen, and guide of the resplendent. O Ali-asws! Your-asws mention is in the Torah, and mention of your-asws Shias was before they were Created, with every goodness, and like that is their mention in the Evangel, and what Allah-azwj has Given you-asws from the knowledge of the Book.
فَإِنَّ أَهْلَ الْإِنْجِيلِ يُعَظِّمُونَ إلياء [إِلْيَا] وَ شِيعَتَهُ وَ مَا يَعْرِفُونَهُمْ وَ أَنْتَ وَ شِيعَتُكَ مَذْكُورُونَ فِي كُتُبِهِمْ فَأَخْبِرْ أَصْحَابَكَ أَنَّ ذِكْرَهُمْ فِي السَّمَاءِ أَفْضَلُ وَ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ ذِكْرِهِمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَلْيَفْرَحُوا بِذَلِكَ وَ يَزْدَادُوا اجْتِهَاداً فَإِنَّ شِيعَتَكَ عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ الْحَقِّ وَ الِاسْتِقَامَةِ الْحَدِيثَ.
The people of the Evangel are revering Elia and his shias (adherents), and they are not recognising them, and you-asws and your-asws Shias are mentioned in their Books. So, inform your-asws companions that their mention in the sky is more superior and more magnificent than their mention in the earth, so let them rejoice with that, and increase in their struggle, for your-asws Shias are upon a manifesto of the truth, and the incorruptible Hadeeth’’.[155]

And it is reported by Al Karajaky in (the book) ‘Kunz Al Fawaaid’ a Hadeeth attributed to Ibn Abbas who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘By the One-azwj Who Sent me-saww with the truth as a giver of glad tidings and a warner! Neither did the Chair and the Throne settle, nor the rotation of the planets, nor were the skies and the earth established except by Allah-azwj having Written upon these: “There is no god except Allah-azwj, Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj, Ali-asws is Amir Al-Momineen”.
إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى لَمَّا عَرَجَ بِي إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ اخْتَصَّنِي اللَّطِيفُ بِنِدَائِي قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ رَبِّي وَ سَعْدَيْكَ
When Allah-azwj the Exalted Ascended me-saww to the sky and the Subtle Selected me-saww by Calling out to me-saww, He-azwj Said: “O Muhammad-saww!” I-saww said: ‘At Your-azwj service, my-saww Lord-azwj and Your-azwj assistance!’
قَالَ أَنَا الْمَحْمُودُ وَ أَنْتَ مُحَمَّدٌ شَقَقْتُ اسْمَكَ مِنِ اسْمِي وَ فَضَّلْتُكَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ بَرِيَّتِي فَانْصِبْ أَخَاكَ عَلِيّاً عَلَماً لِعِبَادِي يَهْدِيهِمْ إِلَى دِينِي
He-azwj Said: “I-azwj am ‘Al-Mahmoud’ (the most Praised One), and you-saww are ‘Muhammad’ (the praised one). I-azwj Derived your-saww name from My-azwj Name and Merited you-saww over the entirety of My-azwj created beings, so nominate your-saww brother Ali-asws as a flag for My-azwj servants. He-asws will guide them to My-azwj religion.

O Muhammad-saww! I-azwj have Made Ali-asws as Emir of the Momineen. So, the one who commands upon him-asws, I-azwj shall Curse him, and one who opposes him-asws, I-azwj shall Punish him and the one who obeys him-asws, I-azwj shall Draw him closer.
يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنِّي قَدْ جَعَلْتُ عَلِيّاً إِمَامَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَمَنْ تَقَدَّمَ عَلَيْهِ أَخَّرْتُهُ وَ مَنْ عَصَاهُ أَسْحَقْتُهُ إِنَّ عَلِيّاً سَيِّدُ الْوَصِيِّينَ وَ قَائِدُ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ وَ حُجَّتِي عَلَى الْخَلَائِقِ أَجْمَعِينَ.
O Muhammad-saww! I-azwj have Made Ali-asws an Imam-asws of the Muslims. So, the one who goes ahead upon him-asws, I-azwj shall Place him back, and one who disobeys him-asws, I-azwj shall be Wrathful on him. Ali-asws is chief of the successors-as, and guide of the resplendent, and My-azwj Divine Authority upon the creatures in their entirety!”’[156]

Tafseer Furaat Bin Ibrahim – Ja’far Bin Muhammad Al Fazary, transmitting from Zurara Bin Ayn who said,
‘I said to Abu Ja’far-asws, ‘There is a Verse in the Book of Allah-azwj the Exalted which has made me doubt’. He-asws said: ‘And what is it?’ I said, ‘His-azwj Words: But if you are in doubt of what We Revealed to you, then ask those who have read the Book from before you. [10:94] – the Verse. Who are they, those Rasool-Allah-saww had been Commanded with asking them?’

He-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘When there was an ascension with me-saww to the sky, I-saww came to be in the fourth sky, Allah-azwj Gathered to me-saww the Prophets-as, and the truthful, and the Angels. Jibraeel-as proclaimed Azaan and Iqaamah for the Salat. Then Rasool-Allah-saww proceeded and prayed Salat (leading) them.
فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ بِمَ تَشْهَدُونَ قَالُوا نَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ أَنَّ عَلِيّاً أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَهُوَ مَعْنَى قَوْلِهِ فَسْئَلِ الَّذِينَ يَقْرَؤُنَ الْكِتابَ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ.
When he-saww finished, he-saww said: ‘What did you all testify with?’ They said, ‘We testified that there is no god except Allah-azwj, and you-saww are Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj, and Ali-asws is Amir Al-Momineen!’ Thus, it is the meaning of His-azwj Words: then ask those who have read the Book from before you.

I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘We copied from the handwriting of the martyr Qutub Al Deen Al Kaydari, ‘Al Aasimy said in the book ‘Zayn Al Faty’, ‘It is reported by Ma’mar, from Al Zuhry, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘By Allah-azwj! We did not name Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws as ‘Amir Al-Momineen’ until Rasool-Allah-saww had named him-asws (as such). We were passing in one of the alleyways of Al-Medina one day when Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws came. He-asws said: ‘The greetings be unto you-saww, Rasool-Allah-saww, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!’
فَقَالَ وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ كَيْفَ أَصْبَحْتَ فَقَالَ أَصْبَحْتُ وَ نَوْمِي خَطَرَاتٌ وَ يَقَظَتِي فَرَغَاتٌ وَ فِكْرَتِي فِي يَوْمِ الْمَمَاتِ
He-saww said: ‘And upon you-asws be the greetings, O Amir Al-Momineen! How is your-asws morning?’ He-asws said: ‘I-asws woke up in the morning and my-asws sleep was of short duration, and my-asws wakefulness is of free periods, and my-asws thoughts are regarding the day of the death’’.
قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَعَجِبْتُ مِنْ قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فِي عَلِيٍّ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا الَّذِي قُلْتَ فِي ابْنِ عَمِّي أَ حُبّاً لَهُ أَمْ شَيْئاً مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ
Ibn Abbas said, ‘I was astounded from the words of Rasool-Allah-saww regarding Ali-asws, so I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! What is that which you-saww said regarding the son-asws of my uncle-as? Was it out of love for him-asws or something from the Presence of Allah-azwj?’
قَالَ لَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا قُلْتُ فِيهِ شَيْئاً إِلَّا رَأَيْتُ بِعَيْنَيَّ قُلْتُ وَ مَا الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ
He-saww said: ‘No, by Allah-azwj! I-saww did not say anything except I-saww saw it with my-saww own eyes’. I said, ‘And what is that which you-saww saw, O Rasool-Allah-saww?’
قَالَ لَيْلَةَ أُسْرِيَ بِي فِي السَّمَاءِ مَا مَرَرْتُ بِبَابٍ مِنْ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا وَ رَأَيْتُ مَكْتُوباً عَلَيْهِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يُخْلَقَ آدَمُ بِسَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ عَامٍ.
He-saww said: ‘The night there was an ascension with me-saww in the sky, I-saww did not pass by any gate from the gates of Paradise except and It was written upon it: “Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws is Amir Al-Momineen from before He-azwj Created Adam-as by Seventy thousand years’’.[158]

(The book) ‘Al Khisaal’ – Muhammad Bin Al Hassan Bin Saeed Al Hashimy, from Furaat Bin Ibrahim, from Ubeyd Bin Kaseer who said, ‘It is narrated to us byYahya Bin Al Hassan, and Abbad Bin Yaqoubm and Muhammad Bin Al Juneyd who said, ‘It is narrated to us by Abu Abdul Rahman Al Masoudy who said, ‘It is narrated to us by Al Haris Bin Haseyra, from Al Sakhr Bin Al Hakam Al Fazary, from Hayyan Bin Al Haris Al Azdy, from Al Rabie Bin Jameel Al Sabie, from Malik Bin Zamrah Al Rawwasy who said,
‘When Abu Zarr-ra, may Allah-azwj have Mercy on him-ra, was made to travel (to Al-Rahba), he-ra and Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and Al-Miqdad Bin Al-Aswad-ra, and Ammar Bin Yasser-ra, and Huzeyfa Bin Al-Yamani, and Abdullah Bin Masoud, gathered.
فَقَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ حَدِّثُوا حَدِيثاً نَذْكُرُ بِهِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ نَشْهَدُ لَهُ وَ نَدْعُو لَهُ وَ نُصَدِّقُهُ بِالتَّوْحِيدِ فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ مَا هَذَا زَمَانَ حَدِيثِي قَالُوا صَدَقْتَ
Abu Zarr-ra said, ‘(O Ali-asws)! Narrate a Hadeeth we can remember Rasool-Allah-saww with it, and we can testify to him-saww, and call to Him-azwj and ratify with the Tawheed’. Ali-asws said: ‘You well known this is not an era of my-asws Hadeeth’. They said, ‘You-asws speak the truth’.
فَقَالَ حَدِّثْنَا يَا حُذَيْفَةُ قَالَ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ أَنِّي سَأَلْتُ الْمُعْضِلَاتِ وَ خُبِّرْتُهُنَّ لَمْ أُسْأَلْ عَنْ غَيْرِهَا
He-ra said, ‘Narrate to us, O Huzeyfa!’ He said, ‘You have known I had asked him-saww about the dilemmas and he-saww had informed with these, and I did not ask about anything else’.
فَقَالَ حَدِّثْنَا يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ أَنِّي قَرَأْتُ الْقُرْآنَ لَمْ أُسْأَلْ عَنْ غَيْرِهِ وَ لَكِنْ أَنْتُمْ أَصْحَابُ الْأَحَادِيثِ قَالُوا صَدَقْتَ
He-ra said, ‘Narrate to us, O Ibn Masoud!’ He said, ‘You have known I read the Quran, I do not ask about anything else, but you are companions of the Ahadeeth’. They said, ‘You speak the truth’.
قَالَ حَدِّثْنَا يَا مِقْدَادُ قَالَ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ أَنِّي إِنَّمَا كُنْتُ صَاحِبَ الْفِتَنِ لَا أُسْأَلُ مِنْ غَيْرِهَا وَ لَكِنْ أَنْتُمْ أَصْحَابُ الْأَحَادِيثِ قَالُوا صَدَقْتَ
He-ra said, ‘Narrate to us, O Miqdad-ra!’ He-ra said, ‘You have known, I am rather a companion of (questioner about) the Fitna, not asking about anything else, but you are companions of Ahadeeth’. They said, ‘You-ra speak the truth’.
فَقَالَ حَدِّثْنَا يَا عَمَّارُ قَالَ قَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ أَنِّي رَجُلٌ نَسِيٌّ إِلَّا أَنْ أُذَكَّرَ فَأَذْكُرَ
He-ra said, ‘Narrate to us, O Ammar-ra!’ He-ra said, ‘You have known I am a forgetful man, except if I-ra can recall, so I recall’.
فَقَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ أَنَا أُحَدِّثُكُمْ بِحَدِيثٍ قَدْ سَمِعْتُمُوهُ أَوْ مَنْ سَمِعَهُ مِنْكُمْ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَ لَسْتُمْ تَشْهَدُونَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ أَنَّ السَّاعَةَ آتِيَةٌ لا رَيْبَ فِيها وَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَبْعَثُ مَنْ فِي الْقُبُورِ وَ أَنَّ الْبَعْثَ حَقٌّ وَ أَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ حَقٌّ وَ النَّارَ حَقٌّ
Abu Zarr-ra, may Allah-azwj have Mercy on him-ra, said, ‘I-ra shall narrate to you all with a Hadeeth I-ra have heard it or one from you has heard it. Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Aren’t you testifying that there is no god except Allah-azwj and that Muhammad-saww is Rasool-Allah-saww, And the Hour is coming, there is no doubt in it, and that Allah will Resurrect the ones in the graves [22:7], and that the Resurrection is true, and the Paradise is true, and the Fire is true?’
قَالُوا نَشْهَدُ قَالَ وَ أَنَا مَعَكُمْ مِنَ الشَّاهِدِينَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَ لَسْتُمْ تَشْهَدُونَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص قَالَ شَرُّ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ اثْنَا عَشَرَ سِتَّةٌ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ سِتَّةٌ مِنَ الْآخِرِينَ
They said, ‘We do testify!’ He-saww said: ‘and I (too) am of the Bearers of Witness with you [3:81]’. Then he-asws said: ‘Aren’t you testifying that Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The most evil of the former ones and the latter ones are twelve – six from the former ones and six from the latter ones’.
ثُمَّ سَمَّى السِّتَّةَ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ ابْنَ آدَمَ الَّذِي قَتَلَ أَخَاهُ وَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَ هَامَانَ وَ قَارُونَ وَ السَّامِرِيَّ وَ الدَّجَّالَ اسْمُهُ فِي الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ يَخْرُجُ فِي الْآخِرِينَ
Then he-saww named the six from the former ones are the son of Adam-as who killed his-la brother-as, and Pharaoh-la, and Haman-la, and Qaroun-la, and Al-Samiri-la, and Al-Dajjal-la, his-la name is among the former ones, and he-la will be emerging among the latter ones.
وَ أَمَّا السِّتَّةُ مِنَ الْآخِرِينَ فَالْعِجْلُ وَ هُوَ نَعْثَلٌ وَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَ هُوَ مُعَاوِيَةُ وَ هَامَانُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ وَ هُوَ زِيَادٌ وَ قَارُونُهَا وَ هُوَ سَعْدٌ وَ السَّامِرِيُّ وَ هُوَ أَبُو مُوسَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ قَيْسٍ لِأَنَّهُ قَالَ كَمَا قَالَ سَامِرِيُّ قَوْمِ مُوسَى لَا مِسَاسَ أَيْ لَا قِتَالَ وَ الْأَبْتَرُ وَ هُوَ عَمْرُو بْنُ الْعَاصِ أَ فَتَشْهَدُونَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ وَ أَنَا عَلَى ذَلِكَ مِنَ الشَّاهِدِينَ
And as for the six from the latter ones, so it is the calf (Abu Bakr), and he is No’Sal, and Pharaoh-la, and he is Muawiya, and Haman-la of this community, and he is Ziyad, and Qaroun-la, and he is Sa’ad, and Al-Samiri-la, and he is Abu Musa Abdullah Bin Qays, he said like what Samiri-la of the people of Musa-as had said, ‘There is no confrontation’, i.e., there is no battle, and Al-Abtar, and he is Amro Bin Al-Aas’. Are you testifying upon that?’ They said, ‘Yes!’ He-ra said, ‘And I-ra am upon that from the testifiers’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ أَ لَسْتُمْ تَشْهَدُونَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ إِنَّ أُمَّتِي تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ الْحَوْضَ عَلَى خَمْسِ رَايَاتٍ أَوَّلُهَا رَايَةُ الْعِجْلِ فَأَقُومُ فَآخُذُ بِيَدِهِ فَإِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ اسْوَدَّ وَجْهُهُ وَ رَجَفَتْ قَدَمَاهُ وَ خَفَقَتْ أَحْشَاؤُهُ وَ مَنْ فَعَلَ فِعْلَهُ يَتْبَعُهُ
Then he-ra said, ‘Aren’t you testifying that Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘My-saww community will return to me-saww at the Fountain upon five flags. It’s first is the flag of the calf (Abu Bakr). I-saww shall stand and hold his hand. As soon as I-saww hold his hand, his face would darken and his feet would tremble, and his insides would throb, and of the ones who did his deed, following him’.
فَأَقُولُ بِمَا ذَا خَلَفْتُمُونِي فِي الثَّقَلَيْنِ مِنْ بَعْدِي فَيَقُولُونَ كَذَّبْنَا الْأَكْبَرَ وَ مَزَّقْنَا وَ اضْطَهَدْنَا الْأَصْغَرَ وَ أَخَذْنَا حَقَّهُ فَأَقُولُ اسْلُكُوا ذَاتَ الشِّمَالِ فَيَنْصَرِفُونَ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ قَدِ اسْوَدَّتْ وُجُوهُهُمْ وَ لَا يَطْعَمُونَ مِنْهُ قَطْرَةً
I-saww shall say: ‘What is that you replaced me-saww regarding the two weighty things from after me-saww?’ They would be saying, ‘We belied the greater (Quran) and tore it and coerced the small (Ali-asws), and we seized his-asws rights’. I-saww shall say: ‘Travel to the right!’ They will leave thirsty remaining thirsty, their faces having darkened, nor having been fed (quenched) from it, a drop.
ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةُ فِرْعَوْنِ أُمَّتِي وَ هُمْ أَكْثَرُ النَّاسِ وَ مِنْهُمُ الْمُبَهْرِجُونَ قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ مَا الْمُبَهْرِجُونَ بَهْرَجُوا الطَّرِيقَ قَالَ لَا وَ لَكِنْ بَهْرَجُوا دِينَهُمْ وَ هُمُ الَّذِينَ يَغْضَبُونَ لِلدُّنْيَا وَ لَهَا يَرْضَوْنَ
Then there shall return to me-asws the flag of Pharaoh-la (Muawiya) and his community, and they would be most of the people, and from them would be the ‘Al-Mubahrijoun’’. It was said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! And what are the ‘Al-Mubahrijoun’? Would they be deviating from the road?’ He-saww said: ‘No, but deviating from their religion, and they are those getting angered for the world and being pleased for it.
فَأَقُومُ فَآخُذُ بِيَدِ صَاحِبِهِمْ فَإِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ اسْوَدَّ وَجْهُهُ وَ رَجَفَتْ قَدَمَاهُ وَ خَفَقَتْ أَحْشَاؤُهُ وَ مَنْ فَعَلَ فِعْلَهُ يَتْبَعُهُ فَأَقُولُ بِمَا خَلَفْتُمُونِي فِي الثَّقَلَيْنِ بَعْدِي فَيَقُولُونَ كَذَّبْنَا الْأَكْبَرَ وَ مَزَّقْنَاهُ وَ قَاتَلْنَا الْأَصْغَرَ فَقَتَلْنَاهُ فَأَقُولُ اسْلُكُوا سَبِيلَ أَصْحَابِكُمْ فَيَنْصَرِفُونَ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُهُمْ لَا يَطْعَمُونَ مِنْهُ قَطْرَةً
I-saww shall stand and hold the hand of their leader, and when I-saww hold his hand, his face would blacken, and his feet would tremble, and his insides would throb, and of the ones who did his deed, following him. I-saww would say: ‘With what did you replace me-saww regarding the two weighty things after me-saww?’ They would be saying, ‘We belied the greater and we killed the smaller’. I-saww will say: ‘Travel the way of companions’. They would leave thirsty, remaining thirsty, darkened of faces, not being fed (quenched) from it a drop’.
قَالَ ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةُ هَامَانِ أُمَّتِي فَأَقُومُ فَآخُذُ بِيَدِهِ فَإِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ اسْوَدَّ وَجْهُهُ وَ رَجَفَتْ قَدَمَاهُ وَ خَفَقَتْ أَحْشَاؤُهُ وَ مَنْ فَعَلَ فِعْلَهُ يَتْبَعُهُ فَأَقُولُ بِمَا خَلَفْتُمُونِي فِي الثَّقَلَيْنِ بَعْدِي
He-saww said: ‘Then there will returned to me-saww the flag of Haman-la of my-saww community (Ziyad). I-saww shall hold his hand. When I-saww hold his hand, his face would darken, and his feet would tremble, and his insides would throb, and of the ones who did his deeds, following him. I-saww shall say: ‘With what did you replace me-saww regarding the two weighty things after me-saww?’
فَيَقُولُونَ كَذَّبْنَا الْأَكْبَرَ وَ عَصَيْنَاهُ وَ خَذَلْنَا الْأَصْغَرَ وَ خَذَّلْنَا عَنْهُ فَأَقُولُ اسْلُكُوا سَبِيلَ أَصْحَابِكُمْ فَيَنْصَرِفُونَ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُهُمْ لَا يَطْعَمُونَ مِنْهُ قَطْرَةً
They would say, ‘We belied the greater and disobeyed it, and we abandoned the smaller and went away from him-asws’. I-saww will say: ‘Travel the way of your companions’. So, they would leave thirsty, remaining thirsty, darkened of faces, not being fed (quenched) from it, a drop.
ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ وَ هُوَ إِمَامُ خَمْسِينَ أَلْفاً مِنْ أُمَّتِي فَأَقُومُ فَآخُذُ بِيَدِهِ فَإِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ اسْوَدَّ وَجْهُهُ وَ رَجَفَتْ قَدَمَاهُ وَ خَفَقَتْ أَحْشَاؤُهُ وَ مَنْ فَعَلَ فِعْلَهُ يَتْبَعُهُ فَأَقُولُ بِمَا خَلَفْتُمُونِي فِي الثَّقَلَيْنِ مِنْ بَعْدِي
Then there will return to me-saww the flag of Abdullah Bin Qays (Abu Musa Al-Ashari), and he would be the leader of fifty thousand from my-saww community. I-saww shall stand and hold his hand. When I-saww hold his hand, his face would darken, and his feet would tremble, and his insides would throb, and of the ones who did his deed, following him. I-saww will say: ‘With what did you replace me-saww regarding the two weighty things from after me-saww?’
فَيَقُولُونَ كَذَّبْنَا الْأَكْبَرَ وَ مَزَّقْنَاهُ وَ عَصَيْنَاهُ وَ خَذَلْنَا الْأَصْغَرَ وَ خَذَّلْنَا عَنْهُ فَأَقُولُ اسْلُكُوا سَبِيلَ أَصْحَابِكُمْ فَيَنْصَرِفُونَ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُهُمْ لَا يَطْعَمُونَ مِنْهُ قَطْرَةً
They would say, ‘We belied the greater and tore it and disobeyed it, and we abandoned the smaller away from him-asws’. I-saww will say: ‘Travel the way of your companions!’ They would leave thirsty, remaining thirsty, darkened of faces, not being fed (quenched) from it, a drop.
ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ الْمُخْدَجُ بِرَايَتِهِ فَآخُذُ بِيَدِهِ فَإِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ اسْوَدَّ وَجْهُهُ وَ رَجَفَتْ قَدَمَاهُ وَ خَفَقَتْ أَحْشَاؤُهُ وَ مَنْ فَعَلَ فِعْلَهُ يَتْبَعُهُ فَأَقُولُ بِمَا خَلَفْتُمُونِي فِي الثَّقَلَيْنِ بَعْدِي
Then there will arrive to be Al-Mukhdaj (chief of the Kharijites) with his flag. I-saww will hold his hand, and when I-saww hold his hand, his face would darken, and his feet would tremble, and his insides would throb, and of the ones doing his deed, following him. I-saww shall say: ‘With what did you replace me-saww regarding the two weighty things after me-saww?’
فَيَقُولُونَ كَذَّبْنَا الْأَكْبَرَ وَ عَصَيْنَاهُ وَ قَاتَلْنَا الْأَصْغَرَ وَ قَتَلْنَاهُ فَأَقُولُ اسْلُكُوا سَبِيلَ أَصْحَابِكُمْ فَيَنْصَرِفُونَ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُهُمْ لَا يَطْعَمُونَ مِنْهُ قَطْرَةً
They would say, ‘We belied the greater and disobeyed it, and we fought against the smaller and killed him-asws’. I-saww will say: ‘Travel the way of your companions!’ They would leave thirsty, remaining thirsty, darkened of faces, not being fed (quenched) from it, a drop’.
ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةُ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ إِمَامِ الْمُتَّقِينَ وَ قَائِدِ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ فَأَقُومُ فَآخُذُ بِيَدِهِ فَإِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ ابْيَضَّ وَجْهُهُ وَ وُجُوهُ أَصْحَابِهِ فَأَقُولُ بِمَا خَلَفْتُمُونِي فِي الثَّقَلَيْنِ بَعْدِي
Then will return to me-saww the flag of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and Imam-asws of the pious, and guide of the resplendent (Ali-asws). I-saww will stand and hold his-asws hand. When I-saww hold his-asws hand, his-asws face would brighter, and so will the faces of his-asws companions. I-saww shall say: ‘With what did you-asws replace me-saww regarding the two weighty things after me-saww?’
فَيَقُولُونَ اتَّبَعْنَا الْأَكْبَرَ وَ صَدَّقْنَاهُ وَ وَازَرْنَا الْأَصْغَرَ وَ نَاصَرْنَاهُ وَ قَاتَلْنَا مَعَهُ فَأَقُولُ رِدُوا رِوَاءً مَرْوِيِّينَ فَيَشْرَبُونَ شَرْبَةً لَا يَظْمَئُونَ بَعْدَهَا أَبَداً وَجْهُ إِمَامِهِمْ كَالشَّمْسِ الطَّالِعَةِ وَ وُجُوهُ أَصْحَابِهِ كَالْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ وَ كَأَضْوَاءِ نَجْمٍ فِي السَّمَاءِ
They would say: ‘We followed the greater and ratified it, and we supported the smaller and helped him-asws and fought alongside him-asws’. I-saww will say: ‘Return saturated, remaining saturated!’ So, they would drink a drink, they will not be thirsty after it, ever! The face of their Imam-asws would be like the emerging sun, and faces of his-asws companions would be like the full moon on the night of the full moon, and like the illumination of the stars in the sky’’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ يَعْنِي أَبُو ذَرٍّ أَ لَسْتُمْ تَشْهَدُونَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ وَ أَنَا عَلَى ذَلِكَ مِنَ الشَّاهِدِينَ
Then he-ra said, meaning Abu Zarr-ra, ‘Aren’t you testifying upon that?’ They said, ‘Yes’. He-ra said, ‘And I-ra am from the testifiers upon that’’.
قَالَ يَحْيَى وَ قَالَ عَبَّادٌ اشْهَدُوا عَلَيَّ بِهَذَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنَّ أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا بِهَذَا وَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ اشْهَدُوا عَلَيَّ بِهَذَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنَّ الْحَارِثَ بْنَ حَصِيرَةَ حَدَّثَنِي بِهَذَا وَ قَالَ الْحَارِثُ اشْهَدُوا عَلَيَّ بِهَذَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنَّ صَخْرَ بْنَ الْحَكَمِ حَدَّثَنِي بِهَذَا
Yahya said, ‘And Abbad said, ‘Be witnesses upon me with this in the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic! Abu Abdul Rahman had narrated to us with this. And Abu Abdul Rahman said, ‘Be witnesses upon me with this in the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and majestic that Al-Haris Bin Haseyra had narrated to me with this. And Al-Haris said, ‘Be witnessed upon me with this in the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic that Sakhr Bin Al-Hakam had narrated to me with this.
وَ قَالَ صَخْرُ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ اشْهَدُوا عَلَيَّ بِهَذَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنَّ حَيَّانَ حَدَّثَنِي بِهَذَا وَ قَالَ حَيَّانُ اشْهَدُوا عَلَيَّ بِهَذَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنَّ الرَّبِيعَ بْنَ الْجَمِيلِ حَدَّثَنِي بِهَذَا وَ قَالَ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ جَمِيلٍ اشْهَدُوا عَلَيَّ بِهَذَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنَّ مَالِكَ بْنَ ضَمْرَةَ حَدَّثَنِي بِهَذَا
And Sakhr Bin Al-Hakam said, ‘Be witnesses upon me with this in the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic that Hayyan had narrated to me with this. And Hayyan said, ‘Be witnesses upon me with this in the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic that Al-Rabie Bin Al-Jameel had narrated to me with this. And Al-Rabie Bin Jameel said, ‘Be witnessed upon me with this in the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic that Malik Bin Zamrah had narrated to me with this.
وَ قَالَ مَالِكُ بْنُ ضَمْرَةَ اشْهَدُوا عَلَيَّ بِهَذَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنَّ أَبَا ذَرٍّ الْغِفَارِيَّ حَدَّثَنِي بِهَذَا وَ قَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص حَدَّثَنِي بِهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ عَنِ اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى.
And Malik Bin Zamrah said, ‘Be witnesses upon me with this in the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic that Abu Zarr Al-Ghifari-ra had narrated to me with this. And Abu Zarr-ra said similar to that, and he-ra said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘It is narrated to me-saww by Jibraeel-as, from Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted’’.[159]
2- فس، تفسير القمي أَبِي عَنْ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جَابِرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لَمَّا رَجَعَ مِنْ حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ قَدْ قَرُبَ الْأَجَلُ وَ نُعِيَتْ إِلَيَّ نَفْسِي فَمَنْ لَكَ بَعْدِي فَأَقْبَلْتُ أَعُدُّ عَلَيْهِ رَجُلًا رَجُلًا
Tafseer Al Qummi – My father, from Muslim Bin Khalid, from Muhammad Bin Jabir, from Ibn Masoud who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said to me when he-saww returned from the farewell Hajj: ‘O Ibn Masoud! O Ibn Masoud! The (end of) term has drawn near, and I-saww have been given the news of death to myself-saww. So, who would be for you after me-saww’. I went on to count to him-saww, man by man.
فَبَكَى ثُمَّ قَالَ ثَكِلَتْكَ الثَّوَاكِلُ فَأَيْنَ أَنْتَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ لَمْ تُقَدِّمْهُ عَلَى الْخَلْقِ أَجْمَعِينَ يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ إِنَّهُ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ رُفِعَتْ لِهَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ أَعْلَامٌ فَأَوَّلُ الْأَعْلَامِ لِوَائِيَ الْأَعْظَمُ مَعَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ النَّاسُ أَجْمَعِينَ تَحْتَ لِوَائِي يُنَادِي مُنَادٍ هَذَا الْفَضْلُ يَا ابْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ
He-saww wept, then said: ‘May the mourners mourn you! Where are you from (mentioning) Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws? You did not place him-asws ahead over the people in their entirety. O Ibn Masoud! When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, flags would be raised for this community. So, the first of the flags would be my-saww flag, the largest, with Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and the people in their entirety would be beneath my-saww flag. A caller would call out: ‘This is the preference, O son-asws of Abu Talib-asws!’
ثُمَّ نَزَلَ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ حَسِبُوا أَلَّا تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ فَعَمُوا وَ صَمُّوا أَيْ لَا يَكُونُ اخْتِبَارٌ وَ لَا يَمْتَحِنُهُمُ اللَّهُ بِأَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَعَمُوا وَ صَمُّوا حَيْثُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِهِمْ ثُمَّ عَمُوا وَ صَمُّوا حِينَ قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ أَقَامَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَعَمُوا وَ صَمُّوا فِيهِ حَتَّى السَّاعَةِ.
Then the Book was Revealed about the companions of Rasool-Allah-saww: And they reckoned that strife would not be happening, so they were blinded and deafened. [5:71] – i.e., The Test and the Examination cannot happen with Amir Al-Momineen-asws, so they were blinded and deafened. [5:71] – when Rasool-Allah-saww was in their midst, then many of them were blinded and deafened [5:71], when Rasool-Allah-saww passed away and nominated Amir Al-Momineen-asws upon them. But they were blinded and deafened regarding him-asws until now’’.[160]
3- فس، تفسير القمي أَبِي عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَبِي الْجَارُودِ عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ هَيْثَمٍ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ يَوْمَ تَبْيَضُّ وُجُوهٌ وَ تَسْوَدُّ وُجُوهٌ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَرِدُ عَلَيَّ أُمَّتِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَى خَمْسِ رَايَاتٍ
Tafseer Al Qummi – My father, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Abu Al Jaroud, from Imran Bin Haysam, from Malik Bin Zamrah,
‘From Abu Zarr-ra having said, ‘When this Verse was Revealed: On the Day faces would be whitened and faces would be blackened. [3:106], Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘My-saww community will return to me-saww on the Day of Qiyamah being upon five flags.
فَرَايَةٌ مَعَ عِجْلِ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ فَأَسْأَلُهُمْ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ بِالثَّقَلَيْنِ مِنْ بَعْدِي فَيَقُولُونَ أَمَّا الْأَكْبَرُ فَحَرَّفْنَاهُ وَ نَبَذْنَاهُ وَرَاءَ ظُهُورِنَا وَ الْأَصْغَرُ فَعَادَيْنَاهُ وَ أَبْغَضْنَاهُ وَ ظَلَمْنَاهُ فَأَقُولُ رِدُوا إِلَى النَّارِ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُكُمْ
A flag would be with the calf of this community (Abu Bakr). I-saww shall asked them: ‘What did you do with the two weighty things from after me-saww?’ They would say, ‘As for the greater (Quran), we altered it and threw it behind our backs, and as for the smaller, we were inimical to him-asws and hated him-asws, and oppressed him-asws’. I-saww will say: ‘Return to the Fire thirsty, remaining thirsty, your faced darkened!’
ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةٌ مَعَ فِرْعَوْنِ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ فَأَقُولُ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ بِالثَّقَلَيْنِ مِنْ بَعْدِي فَيَقُولُونَ أَمَّا الْأَكْبَرُ فَحَرَّفْنَاهُ وَ مَزَّقْنَاهُ وَ خَالَفْنَاهُ وَ أَمَّا الْأَصْغَرُ فَعَادَيْنَاهُ وَ قَاتَلْنَا فَأَقُولُ رِدُوا إِلَى النَّارِ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُكُمْ
Then will return to me-saww a flag with the Pharaoh-la of this community (Muawiya). I-saww shall say: ‘What did you with the two weighty things from after me-saww?’ They would say, ‘As for greater (Quran), we altered it, and tore it, and opposed it; and as for the smaller, we were inimical to him-asws, and fought him-asws’. I-saww will say: ‘Return to the Fire thirsty, remaining thirsty, your faces being darkened’.
ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةٌ مَعَ سَامِرِيِّ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ فَأَقُولُ لَهُمْ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ بِالثَّقَلَيْنِ مِنْ بَعْدِي فَيَقُولُنَّ أَمَّا الْأَكْبَرُ فَعَصَيْنَاهُ وَ تَرَكْنَاهُ وَ أَمَّا الْأَصْغَرُ فَخَذَلْنَاهُ وَ ضَيَّعْنَاهُ فَأَقُولُ رِدُوا إِلَى النَّارِ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُكُمْ
Then will return to me-saww a flag with Samiri-la of this community (Abu Musa). I-saww shall say to them: ‘What did you do with the two weighty things from after me-saww?’ They would say, ‘As for the greater, we disobeyed it and neglected it, and as for the smaller, we abandoned him-asws and wasted him-asws’. I-saww will say: ‘Return to the Fire thirsty, remaining thirsty, your faces being darkened!’
ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةُ ذِي الثُّدَيَّةِ مَعَ أَوَّلِ الْخَوَارِجِ وَ آخِرِهِمْ فَأَسْأَلُهُمْ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ بِالثَّقَلَيْنِ مِنْ بَعْدِي فَيَقُولُونَ أَمَّا الْأَكْبَرُ فَمَزَّقْنَاهُ وَ بَرِئْنَا مِنْهُ وَ أَمَّا الْأَصْغَرُ فَقَاتَلْنَاهُ وَ قَتَلْنَاهُ فَأَقُولُ رِدُوا إِلَى النَّارِ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُكُمْ
Then there shall return to me-saww a flag of Zul Saday (chief of the Kharijites) with the first of the Kharijites and their last ones. I-saww shall ask them: ‘What did you do with the two weighty things from after me-saww?’ They would say, ‘As for the greater, we tore it, and disavowed from it, and as for the smaller, we fought against him-asws and killed him-asws’. I-saww will say: ‘Return to the Fire thirsty, remaining thirsty, your faces blackened!’
ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةٌ مَعَ إِمَامِ الْمُتَّقِينَ وَ سَيِّدِ الْوَصِيِّينَ وَ قَائِدِ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ وَ وَصِيِّ رَسُولِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ فَأَقُولُ لَهُمْ مَا ذَا فَعَلْتُمْ بِالثَّقَلَيْنِ مِنْ بَعْدِي فَيَقُولُونَ أَمَّا الْأَكْبَرُ فَاتَّبَعْنَاهُ وَ أَطَعْنَاهُ وَ أَمَّا الْأَصْغَرُ فَأَحْبَبْنَاهُ وَ وَالَيْنَا وَ وَازَرْنَا وَ نَصَرْنَا حَتَّى أُهْرِيقَتْ فِيهِمْ دِمَاؤُنَا فَأَقُولُ رِدُوا الْجَنَّةَ رِوَاءً مَرْوِيِّينَ مُبْيَضَّةً وُجُوهُكُمْ
Then there will return to me-saww a flag with the Imam-asws of the pious, and chief of the successors-asws, and guide of the resplendent, and successor-asws of Rasool-saww of Lord-azwj of the worlds. I-saww shall say to them: ‘What is that you did with the two weighty things?’ They would say, ‘As for the greater, we followed it, and obeyed it; and as for the smaller, we loved him-asws, and befriended him-asws, and supported him-asws and helped him-asws until our blood flowed regarding them-asws’. I-saww will say: ‘Return to the Paradise, saturated, remaining saturated, your faces brightened!’
ثُمَّ تَلَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَوْمَ تَبْيَضُّ وُجُوهٌ وَ تَسْوَدُّ وُجُوهٌ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ فَفِي رَحْمَتِ اللَّهِ هُمْ فِيها خالِدُونَ.
Then Rasool-Allah-saww recited: On the Day faces would be whitened and faces would be blackened. [3:106] – up to His-azwj Words: so in the Mercy of Allah, they would be in it eternally [3:107]’’.[161]
4- شف، كشف اليقين مِنْ كِتَابِ كِفَايَةِ الطَّالِبِ يَرْفَعُهُ إِلَى أَبِي ذَرٍّ الْغِفَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَرِدُ عَلَيَّ الْحَوْضَ رَايَةُ عَلِيٍّ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ إِمَامِ الْمُتَّقِينَ وَ قَائِدِ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ فَأَقُومُ فَآخُذُ بِيَدِهِ فَيَبْيَضُّ وَجْهُهُ وَ وُجُوهُ أَصْحَابِهِ فَأَقُولُ مَا خَلَفْتُمُونِي فِي الثَّقَلَيْنِ بَعْدِي
(The book) ‘Kashaf Al Yaqeen’, from the book ‘Kitab Al Talib’ –
‘Raising it to Abu Zarr Al-Ghifari-ra, may Allah-azwj be Pleased from him-ra said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘There shall return to me-saww at the Fountain, a flag of Ali-asws, Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and Imam-asws of the pious, and the guide of resplendent. I-saww shall stand, hold his-asws hand, so his-asws face would be brightened, and so would faces of his-asws companions. I-saww shall say: ‘How did you all replace me-saww regarding the two weighty things after me-saww?’
فَيَقُولُونَ تَبِعْنَا الْأَكْبَرَ وَ صَدَّقْنَاهُ وَ وَازَرْنَا الْأَصْغَرَ وَ نَصَرْنَاهُ وَ قَاتَلْنَا مَعَهُ فَأَقُولُ رِدُوا رِوَاءً مَرْوِيِّينَ فَيَشْرَبُونَ شَرْبَةً لَا يَظْمَئُونَ بَعْدَهَا أَبَداً وَجْهُ إِمَامِهِمْ كَالشَّمْسِ الطَّالِعَةِ وَ وُجُوهُهُمْ كَالْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ أَوْ كَأَضْوَاءِ أَنْجُمٍ فِي السَّمَاءِ.
They would say, ‘We followed the greater and ratified it, and we supported the smaller and helped him-asws and fought alongside him-asws’. I-saww will say: ‘Return! Return saturated!’ They would drink such a drink, they will not be thirsty after it, ever! The faces of their Imam-asws would be like the emerging sun, and their faces would be like the moon on the night of the full moon, or like the illumination of the stars in the sky’’.[162]
