CHAPTER 18 – THE FLAG
1- لي، الأمالي للصدوق الطَّالَقَانِيُّ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْعَدَوِيِ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ الطُّفَاوِيِ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ عَنْ سَعْدٍ الْخَفَّافِ عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ الْعَوْفِيِّ عَنْ مَخْدُوجِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ الذُّهْلِيِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص آخَى بَيْنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْتَ أَخِي وَ أَنْتَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي
‘Al-Amaali’ of Al-Sadouq – Al Talaqany, from Al-Hassan Bin Ali Al Adwy, from Al-Husayn Bin Ahmad Al Tafawy, from Qays Bin Al Rabie, from S’’ad Al Khafaf, from Atiya Al Awfy, from Makhdouj Ibn Zayd Al Zahly,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww established brotherhood between the Muslims, then said: ‘O Ali-asws! You-asws are my-saww brother, and you-asws are from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as apart from that, there is no Prophet-as after me-saww.
أَ مَا عَلِمْتَ يَا عَلِيُّ أَنَّهُ أَوَّلُ مَنْ يُدْعَى بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يُدْعَى بِي فَأَقُومُ عَنْ يَمِينِ الْعَرْشِ فَأُكْسَى حُلَّةً خَضْرَاءَ مِنْ حُلَلِ الْجَنَّةِ
But, do you-asws know, O Ali-asws, that the first one to be called on the Day of Qiyamah would be me-saww, so I-saww would stand on the right of the Throne and be clothed with green garments from the garments of Paradise.
ثُمَّ يُدْعَى بِأَبِينَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ ع فَيَقُومُ عَنْ يَمِينِ الْعَرْشِ فِي ظِلِّهِ فَيُكْسَى حُلَّةً خَضْرَاءَ مِنْ حُلَلِ الْجَنَّةِ ثُمَّ يُدْعَى بِالنَّبِيِّينَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى أَثَرِ بَعْضٍ فَيَقُومُونَ سِمَاطَيْنِ عَنْ يَمِينِ الْعَرْشِ فِي ظِلِّهِ وَ يُكْسَوْنَ حُلَلًا خُضْراً مِنْ حُلَلِ الْجَنَّةِ
Then they would call our-asws father-as Ibrahim-as, and he-as would stand on the right of the Throne in its shade, and would be clothed with green garments from the garments of Paradise. Then they will call the Prophets-as, upon the footsteps of each other, and they-as would be standing in rows on the right of the Throne in its shade, and would be clothed with green garments from the garments of Paradise.
أَلَا وَ إِنِّي أُخْبِرُكَ يَا عَلِيُّ أَنَّ أُمَّتِي أَوَّلُ الْأُمَمِ يُحَاسَبُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ثُمَّ أُبَشِّرُكَ يَا عَلِيُّ أَنَّ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يُدْعَى يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يُدْعَى بِكَ هَذَا لِقَرَابَتِكَ مِنِّي وَ مَنْزِلَتِكَ عِنْدِي فَيُدْفَعُ إِلَيْكَ لِوَائِي وَ هُوَ لِوَاءُ الْحَمْدِ فَتَسِيرُ بِهِ بَيْنَ السِّمَاطَيْنِ وَ أَنَّ آدَمَ وَ جَمِيعَ مَنْ خَلَقَ اللَّهُ يَسْتَظِلُّونَ بِظِلِّ لِوَائِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ
Indeed! And I-saww hereby inform you-asws, O Ali-asws, that my-saww community would be the first of the communities to be Reckoned with on the Day of Qiyamah. Then I-saww give you-asws glad tidings, O Ali-asws, that the first one to be called with me-saww on the Day of Qiyamah would be you-asws. This is (due to) your-asws nearness from me-saww and your-asws status in my-saww presence, and I-saww would hand over my-saww flag to you-asws, and it is the flag of Praise, and you-asws will travel with it between the rows, and that Adam-as and the entirety from the creatures of Allah-azwj would be taking shade by the shade of my-saww flag on the Day of Qiyamah.
وَ طُولُهُ مَسِيرَةُ أَلْفِ سَنَةٍ سِنَانُهُ يَاقُوتَةٌ حَمْرَاءُ قَصَبُهُ فِضَّةٌ بَيْضَاءُ زُجُّهُ دُرَّةٌ خَضْرَاءُ لَهُ ثَلَاثُ ذَوَائِبَ مِنْ نُورٍ ذُؤَابَةٌ فِي الْمَشْرِقِ وَ ذُؤَابَةٌ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ وَ ذُؤَابَةٌ فِي وَسَطِ الدُّنْيَا
And its length is a travel distance of a thousand years. Its lance would be of red ruby, its cane of white silver, its glow being of green gems. For it, there are three tresses – a tress in the east, a tress in the west, and a tress in the middle of the world.
مَكْتُوبٌ عَلَيْهَا ثَلَاثَةُ أَسْطُرٍ الْأَوَّلُ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَ الْآخَرُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ وَ الثَّالِثُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ طُولُ كُلِّ سَطْرٍ مَسِيرَةُ أَلْفِ سَنَةٍ وَ عَرْضُهُ مَسِيرَةُ أَلْفِ سَنَةٍ
Written upon it are three lines. The first, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent, the Merciful; and the other, ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj Lord-azwj of the worlds; and the third, ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj, Muhammad-saww is a Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj. The length of each line is a travel distance of a thousand years, and its width is a travel distance of a thousand years.
فَتَسِيرُ بِاللِّوَاءِ وَ الْحَسَنُ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ عَنْ يَسَارِكَ حَتَّى تَقِفَ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ فِي ظِلِّ الْعَرْشِ فَتُكْسَى حُلَّةً خَضْرَاءَ مِنْ حُلَلِ الْجَنَّةِ
You-asws will travel with the flag, and Al-Hassan-asws would be on your-asws right, and Al-Husayn-asws on your-asws left, until you-asws pause between me-saww and Ibrahim-as in the shade of the Throne, and you-asws will be clothed with green garments from the garments of Paradise.
ثُمَّ يُنَادِي مُنَادٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ الْعَرْشِ نِعْمَ الْأَبُ أَبُوكَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَ نِعْمَ الْأَخُ أَخُوكَ عَلِيٌّ أَلَا وَ إِنِّي أُبَشِّرُكَ يَا عَلِيُّ أَنَّكَ تُدْعَى إِذَا دُعِيتُ وَ تُكْسَى إِذَا كُسِيتُ وَ تُحَيَّا إِذَا حُيِّيتُ
Then a Caller would call out from the Throne: “The best of the fathers is your-saww father-as Ibrahim-as, and the best of the brothers is your-saww brother-asws Ali-asws!” Indeed, and I-saww give you-asws glad tidings, O Ali-asws! You-asws will be called when you-asws are called, and clothed when you-asws are clothed, and you-asws will live when you-asws are revived’’.[1]
2- لي، الأمالي للصدوق عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَرْقِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ خَلَفِ بْنِ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الْعَبْدِيِّ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ عَبَايَةَ بْنِ رِبْعِيٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَتَانِي جَبْرَئِيلُ ع وَ هُوَ فَرِحٌ مُسْتَبْشِرٌ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ حَبِيبِي جَبْرَئِيلُ مَعَ مَا أَنْتَ فِيهِ مِنَ الْفَرَحِ مَا مَنْزِلَةُ أَخِي وَ ابْنِ عَمِّي عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِ
‘Al-Amaali’ of Al-Sadouq – Ali Bin Ahmad Bin Abdullah Bin Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah Al Baqy, from his father, from his grandfather Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah, from his father Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Khalaf Bin Hamad, from Abu Al-Hassan Al Abdy, from Al Amsh, from Abayah Bin Rabie, from Abdullah Bin Abbas, who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Jibraeel-as came to me-saww and he-as was happy, joyful. I-saww said to him-as: ‘My-saww beloved Jibraeel-as! What are you-as happy with, what status there is of my-saww brother-asws and cousin Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws in the Presence of his-asws Lord-azwj?’
فَقَالَ جَبْرَئِيلُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ وَ الَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالنُّبُوَّةِ وَ اصْطَفَاكَ بِالرِّسَالَةِ مَا هَبَطْتُ فِي وَقْتِي هَذَا إِلَّا لِهَذَا يَا مُحَمَّدُ الْعَلِيُّ الْأَعْلَى يَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ وَ يَقُولُ- مُحَمَّدٌ نَبِيُّ رَحْمَتِي وَ عَلِيٌّ مُقِيمُ حُجَّتِي لَا أُعَذِّبُ مَنْ وَالاهُ وَ إِنْ عَصَانِي وَ لَا أَرْحَمُ مَنْ عَادَاهُ وَ إِنْ أَطَاعَنِي
Jibraeel-as said: ‘O Muhammad-saww! By the One-azwj Who Sent you-saww with the Message! I-as did not descend at this time except for this. O Muhammad-saww! The Most Exalted Conveys the greetings upon you-saww and is saying: “Muhammad-saww is My-azwj Prophet-saww of My-azwj Mercy, and Ali-asws is the establisher of My-azwj Arguments. I-azwj will not Punish the one who loves him-asws and even if he disobeys Me-azwj, and I-azwj will not Mercy one who is inimical to him-asws and even if he obeys Me-azwj!”
قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ أَتَانِي جَبْرَئِيلُ وَ بِيَدِهِ لِوَاءُ الْحَمْدِ وَ هُوَ سَبْعُونَ شِقَّةً الشِّقَّةُ مِنْهُ أَوْسَعُ مِنَ الشَّمْسِ وَ الْقَمَرِ فَيَدْفَعُهُ إِلَيَّ فَآخُذُهُ وَ أَدْفَعُهُ إِلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ
Ibn Abbas said, ‘Then Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, Jibraeel-as will come to me-saww and in his-as hand would be the flag of Praise and it is of seventy tresses (layers), and the tress from it being vaster than the sun and the moon, and he-as will hand it over to me-saww, I-saww will take it to Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’.
فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ كَيْفَ يُطِيقُ عَلِيٌّ عَلَى حَمْلِ اللِّوَاءِ وَ قَدْ ذَكَرْتَ أَنَّهُ سَبْعُونَ شِقَّةً الشِّقَّةُ مِنْهُ أَوْسَعُ مِنَ الشَّمْسِ وَ الْقَمَرِ
A man said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! And how will Ali-asws be able to endure upon carrying the flag, and you-saww have mentioned that it has seventy tresses, the tress from it being vaster than the sun and the moon?’
فَغَضِبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا رَجُلُ إِنَّهُ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ أَعْطَى اللَّهُ عَلِيّاً مِنَ الْقُوَّةِ مِثْلَ قُوَّةِ جَبْرَئِيلَ وَ مِنَ الْجَمَالِ مِثْلَ جَمَالِ يُوسُفَ وَ مِنَ الْحِلْمِ مِثْلَ حِلْمِ رِضْوَانَ وَ مِنَ الصَّوْتِ مَا يُدَانِي صَوْتَ دَاوُدَ وَ لَوْ لَا أَنَّ دَاوُدَ خَطِيبٌ فِي الْجِنَانِ لَأُعْطِيَ عَلِيٌّ مِثْلَ صَوْتِهِ
Rasool-Allah-saww got angered, then said: ‘O man! When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, Allah-azwj would Give Ali-asws from the strength like the strength of Jibraeel-as, and from the beauty like the beauty of Yusuf-as, and from the forbearance like the forbearance of Rizwaan, and from the voice what resembles the voice of Dawood-as, and had it not been for Dawood-as being an addressor in the Gardens, Ali-asws would have been given the like of his-as voice.
وَ إِنَّ عَلِيّاً أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَشْرَبُ مِنَ السَّلْسَبِيلِ وَ الزَّنْجَبِيلِ وَ إِنَّ لِعَلِيٍّ وَ شِيعَتِهِ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مَقَاماً يَغْبِطُهُ بِهِ الْأَوَّلُونَ وَ الْآخِرُونَ
And that Ali-asws would be the first one to drink from Al-Salsabeel and Al-Zanjabeel (springs of Paradise), and that for Ali-asws and his-asws Shias is such a status from Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, they would be envied for it by the former ones and the latter ones’’.[2]

‘Al Khisaal’ – My father, from Al-Hassan Bin Ahmad Al Askeyf Al Qummy at Al Rayy, raising the Hadeeth to Muhammad Bin Ali, from Muhammad Bin Hasaam Al Qowmisy, from Ali Bin Muhammad Al Ansary, from Ubeydullah Ibn Abdul Kareem Al Razy, from Abdul Hameed Al Hamany, from Lays, from Mujahid, from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Jibraeel-as came to me-saww and he-as was happy, joyful, so I-saww said: ‘I-saww said to him-as: ‘My-saww beloved Jibraeel-as! What are you-as happy with, what status there is of my-saww brother-asws and cousin Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws in the Presence of his-asws Lord-azwj?’

Jibraeel-as said: ‘O Muhammad-saww! By the One-azwj Who Sent you-saww with the Message! I-as did not descend at this time except for this. O Muhammad-saww! The Most Exalted Conveys the greetings upon you-asws both, and is saying: “Muhammad-saww is My-azwj Prophet-saww of My-azwj Mercy, and Ali-asws is the establisher of My-azwj Arguments. I-azwj will not Punish the one who loves him-asws and even if he disobeys Me-azwj, and I-azwj will not Mercy one who is inimical to him-asws and even if he obeys Me-azwj!”
قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ يَأْتِينِي جَبْرَئِيلُ وَ مَعَهُ لِوَاءُ الْحَمْدِ وَ هُوَ سَبْعُونَ شِقَّةً الشِّقَّةُ مِنْهُ أَوْسَعُ مِنَ الشَّمْسِ وَ الْقَمَرِ وَ أَنَا عَلَى كُرْسِيٍّ مِنْ كَرَاسِيِّ الرِّضْوَانِ فَوْقَ مِنْبَرٍ مِنْ مَنَابِرِ الْقُدْسِ فَآخُذُهُ وَ أَدْفَعُهُ إِلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ
He (the narrator) said, ‘Then Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, Jibraeel-as will come to me-saww and with him-as would be the flag of Praise, and it is of seventy tresses, the tress from it being vaster than the sun and the moon, and I-saww will be upon a chair from the chairs of Al-Rizwaan, above a pulpit from the pulpits of the Holiness. I-saww will take it and hand it over to Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’.
فَوَثَبَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ كَيْفَ يُطِيقُ عَلَى حَمْلِ اللِّوَاءِ وَ قَدْ ذَكَرْتَ أَنَّهُ سَبْعُونَ شِقَّةً الشِّقَّةُ مِنْهُ أَوْسَعُ مِنَ الشَّمْسِ وَ الْقَمَرِ
Umar Bin Al-Khattab leapt and said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! And how would Ali-asws be able to endure carrying the flag, and you-saww have mentioned that it is of seventy tresses, the tress from it being vaster than the sun and the moon?’
فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ يُعْطِي اللَّهُ عَلِيّاً مِنَ الْقُوَّةِ مِثْلَ قُوَّةِ جَبْرَئِيلَ وَ مِنَ النُّورِ مِثْلَ نُورِ آدَمَ وَ مِنَ الْحِلْمِ مِثْلَ حِلْمِ رِضْوَانَ وَ مِنَ الْجَمَالِ مِثْلَ جَمَالِ يُوسُفَ وَ مِنَ الصَّوْتِ مَا يُدَانِي صَوْتَ دَاوُدَ وَ لَوْ لَا أَنْ يَكُونَ دَاوُدُ خَطِيباً لِعَلِيٍّ فِي الْجِنَانِ لَأُعْطِيَ مِثْلَ صَوْتِهِ وَ إِنَّ عَلِيّاً أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَشْرَبُ مِنَ السَّلْسَبِيلِ وَ الزَّنْجَبِيلِ
The Prophet-saww said: ‘When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, Allah-azwj would Give Ali-asws from the strength like the strength of Jibraeel-as, and from the Light like the Light of Adam-as, and from the forbearance like the forbearance of Rizwaan, and from the beauty like the beauty of Yusuf-as, and from the voice that resembles Dawood-as, Ali-asws would have been Given the like of his-as voice, and that Ali-asws would be the first one to drink from Al-Salsabeel and Al-Zanjabeel (springs of Paradise).
لَا تَجُوزُ لِعَلِيٍّ قَدَمٌ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ إِلَّا وَ ثَبَتَتْ لَهُ مَكَانَهَا أُخْرَى وَ إِنَّ لِعَلِيٍ وَ شِيعَتِهِ مِنَ اللَّهِ مَكَاناً يَغْبِطُهُ بِهِ الْأَوَّلُونَ وَ الْآخِرُونَ
No step would exceed for Ali-asws upon the Bridge except and another one would be affirmed in its place, and that for Ali-asws and his-asws Shias, there is a position from Allah-azwj, envied by the former ones and the latter ones’’.[3]

قَالَ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ عُقِدَ لِوَاءٌ مِنْ نُورٍ أَبْيَضَ وَ نَادَى مُنَادٍ لِيَقُمْ سَيِّدُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَيُعْطِي اللَّهُ اللِّوَاءَ مِنَ النُّورِ الْأَبْيَضِ بِيَدِهِ تَحْتَهُ جَمِيعُ السَّابِقِينَ الْأَوَّلِينَ مِنَ الْمُهاجِرِينَ وَ الْأَنْصارِ لَا يُخَالِطُهُمْ غَيْرُهُمْ حَتَّى يَجْلِسَ عَلَى مِنْبَرٍ مِنْ نُورِ رَبِّ الْعِزَّةِ
He-saww said: ‘When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, a flag of white light would be tightened and a Caller would call out: ‘Let the Chief of the Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws stand up!’ Then Allah-azwj will Give the flag of white light in his-asws hands, beneath which would be the entirety of the preceding ones, the former ones from the Emigrants and the Helpers, none mingling with them apart from them until he-asws sits upon a pulpit of Light of the Lord-azwj of Might.
وَ يُعْرَضَ الْجَمِيعُ عَلَيْهِ رَجُلًا رَجُلًا فَيُعْطِيَ أَجْرَهُ وَ نُورَهُ فَإِذَا أَتَى عَلَى آخِرِهِمْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ قَدْ عَرَفْتُمْ مَوْضِعَكُمْ وَ مَنَازِلَكُمْ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ يَقُولُ لَكُمْ عِنْدِي لَكُمْ مَغْفِرَةٌ وَ أَجْرٌ عَظِيمٌ يَعْنِي الْجَنَّةَ
All of them would be presented unto him-asws, man by man, and he-asws will give his Recompense and his light. When he-asws gives to the last of them, he-asws would say to them: ‘You have recognised your places and your houses from Paradise. Your Lord-azwj is Saying to you: “In My-azwj Presence for you all, is Forgiveness and a Mighty Recompense [48:29], – meaning Paradise!”
فَيَقُومُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ الْقَوْمُ تَحْتَ لِوَائِهِ مَعَهُمْ حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى مِنْبَرِهِ وَ لَا يَزَالُ يُعْرَضُ عَلَيْهِ جَمِيعُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَيَأْخُذُ نَصِيبَهُ مِنْهُمْ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَ يَتْرُكُ أَقْوَاماً عَلَى النَّارِ
Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws will arise, and the people will be beneath his-asws flag, with them until he-asws enters Paradise. Then he-asws will return to his-asws pulpit. They will not cease to present to him the entirety of the Momineen. He-asws will take part of them to Paradise, and leave a people upon the Fire.
فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَ عَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرُهُمْ وَ نُورُهُمْ يَعْنِي السَّابِقِينَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ أَهْلَ الْوَلَايَةِ لَهُ وَ قَوْلُهُ وَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَ كَذَّبُوا بِآياتِنا أُولئِكَ أَصْحابُ الْجَحِيمِ هُمُ الَّذِينَ قَاسَمَ عَلَيْهِمُ النَّارَ فَاسْتَحَقُّوا الْجَحِيمَ
These are the Words of the Mighty and Majestic: and those who believe and do righteous deeds [35:7] For them would be their Recompense and their Light. [57:19] – meaning the preceding ones, the former ones and the Momineen, and the people of the Wilayah for him-asws; and His-azwj Words: And those who are committing Kufr and are belying Our Signs, they are the inmates of the Blazing Fire [5:10], they are those the Fire would be distributed upon, they would be deserving of the Blazing Fire’’.[6]

‘Kashf Al Yaqeen’ – From the book ‘Kifayat Al Talib’ of Muhammad Bin Yusuf Al Qarshy Al Shafie, from Ateeq Ibn Abu Al Fazl Al Salmany, from Abu Al Qasim Ali Muhaddis of Syria, from Abu Al Qasim Ismail Ibn Ahmad Al Samarqandy, from Aasim Bin Al-Hassan Al Aasimy, from Abdul Wahid Bin Muhammad Bin, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Saeed, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Al-Hassan, from Khuzeyman Bin Mahan, from Isa Bin Yunus, from Al Amsh, from Saeed Bin Jubeyr, from Ibn Abbas who said,
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَأْتِي عَلَى النَّاسِ يَوْمٌ مَا فِيهِ رَاكِبٌ إِلَّا نَحْنُ أَرْبَعَةٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ عَمُّهُ فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَ أُمِّي مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ الْأَرْبَعَةُ
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘There will come a day upon the people during which there will be no riders except us-asws four’. Al-Abbas Bin Al-Muttalib-as said to him-saww, ‘May my father and my mother be sacrificed for you-saww! Who are these four?’
فَقَالَ أَنَا عَلَى الْبُرَاقِ وَ أَخِي صَالِحٌ عَلَى نَاقَةِ اللَّهِ الَّتِي عَقَرَهَا قَوْمُهُ وَ عَمِّي حَمْزَةُ أَسَدُ اللَّهِ وَ أَسَدُ رَسُولِهِ عَلَى نَاقَتِيَ الْعَضْبَاءِ وَ أَخِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَلَى نَاقَةٍ مِنْ نُوقِ الْجَنَّةِ مُدَبَّجَةُ الْجَنْبَيْنِ عَلَيْهِ حُلَّتَانِ خَضْرَاوَانِ مِنْ كِسْوَةِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ تَاجٌ مِنْ نُورٍ لِذَلِكَ التَّاجِ سَبْعُونَ رُكْناً عَلَى كُلِّ رُكْنٍ يَاقُوتَةٌ حَمْرَاءُ تُضِيءُ لِلرَّاكِبِ مِنْ مَسِيرَةِ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ
He-saww said: ‘I-saww would be upon Al-Buraq, and my-saww brother Salih-as would be upon the she-camel of Allah-azwj which his-as people had hamstrung, and my-saww uncle Hamza, Lion of Allah-azwj and Lion of His-azwj Rasool-saww would be upon my-saww she-camel Al-Azba’a, and my-saww brother Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws would be upon a she-camel from the she-camels of Paradise flanked on two sides. Upon him-asws would be two green garments from the garments of the Beneficent. Upon his-asws head would be a crown of light. For that crown are seventy corners, upon each corner are red rubies, illuminating for the rider from a travel distance of three days.
وَ بِيَدِهِ لِوَاءُ الْحَمْدِ يُنَادِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ- مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَيَقُولُ الْخَلَائِقُ مَنْ هَذَا أَ مَلَكٌ مُقَرَّبٌ أَ نَبِيٌّ مُرْسَلٌ أَ حَامِلُ عَرْشٍ
And in his-asws hand would be the flag of Praise, calling out: ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj, Muhammad-saww is a Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj’. The creatures would say, ‘Who is this one? An Angel of Proximity? A Mursil Prophet-as? A bearer of the Throne?’
فَيُنَادِي مُنَادٍ مِنْ بُطْنَانِ الْعَرْشِ لَيْسَ هَذَا مَلَكٌ مُقَرَّبٌ وَ لَا نَبِيٌّ مُرْسَلٌ وَ لَا حَامِلُ عَرْشٍ هَذَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَصِيُّ رَسُولِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ وَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ قَائِدُ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ إِلَى جَنَّاتِ النَّعِيمِ
A Caller would Call out from the interior of the Throne: “This is neither an Angel of Proximity, nor a Mursil Prophet-as, nor a bearer of the Throne. This is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws successor-asws of Rasool-saww of Lord-azwj of the Worlds, and Emir of the Momineen, and Guide of the resplendent to the Gardens of Bliss![7]
8- فر، تفسير فرات بن إبراهيم بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ قَالَ: تَذَاكَرَ أَصْحَابُنَا الْجَنَّةَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ص فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص إِنَّ أَوَّلَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ دُخُولًا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ
‘Tafseer Furat Bin Ibrahim’ – By his chain, from Jabir Bin Abdullah Al Ansary who said,
‘Our companions mentioned Paradise in the presence of the Prophet-saww, so the Prophet-saww said: ‘The first of the people to enter Paradise would be Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’.
قَالَ فَقَالَ أَبُو دُجَانَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَ لَيْسَ أَخْبَرْتَنَا أَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ مُحَرَّمَةٌ عَلَى الْأَنْبِيَاءِ حَتَّى تَدْخُلَهَا وَ عَلَى الْأُمَمِ حَتَّى تَدْخُلَهَا أُمَّتُكَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘Abu Dajjana Al-Ansary said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Didn’t you-saww inform us that Paradise is forbidden unto the Prophets-as until you-saww enter it, and unto the communities until your-saww community enters it?’
قَالَ بَلَى يَا أَبَا دُجَانَةَ أَ مَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ لِلَّهِ لِوَاءً مِنْ نُورٍ عَمُودُهُ مِنْ يَاقُوتٍ مَكْتُوبٌ عَلَى ذَلِكَ اللِّوَاءِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ خَيْرُ الْبَرِيَّةِ وَ صَاحِبُ اللِّوَاءِ أَمَامَ الْقَوْمِ
He-saww said: ‘Yes, O Abu Dajjana! Do you not know that for Allah-azwj there is a flag of Light, its pillar is of ruby, inscribed upon that flag is, ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj, Muhammad-saww is a Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj, and the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww are the best of the creation’? And the owner (bearer) of the flag would be in front of the people.
قَالَ فَسَرَّ بِذَلِكَ عَلِيٌّ ع فَقَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَكْرَمَنَا وَ شَرَّفَنَا بِكَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘Ali-asws interpreted that saying: ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Honoured us-asws and Ennobled us-asws through you-saww’.
قَالَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص أَبْشِرْ يَا عَلِيُّ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يُحِبُّكَ وَ يَنْتَحِلُ مَوَدَّتَكَ إِلَّا بَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَنَا ثُمَّ قَرَأَ النَّبِيُّ ص هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي جَنَّاتٍ وَ نَهَرٍ فِي مَقْعَدِ صِدْقٍ عِنْدَ مَلِيكٍ مُقْتَدِرٍ
He (the narrator) said, ‘The Prophet-saww said: ‘I-saww give you glad tidings, O Ali-asws! There is none from a servant who loves you-asws and manifests your-asws cordiality, except Allah-azwj would Resurrect him on the Day of Qiyamah along with us-asws’. Then the Prophet-saww recited this Verse: Surely the pious would be in Gardens and Rivers [54:54] In a truthful seat, in the Presence of a Powerful King [54:55].[8]

Al-Husayn Bin Ali Al Sowfy, from Abdullah Bin Ja’far al Hazramy, from Muhammad in Abdullah Al Qarshy, from Ali Bin Ahmad Al Tameemy, from Muhammad Bin Marwan, from Abdullah Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al-Hassan Bin Ali Bin Al-Husayn, from his father, from his grandfather,
‘From Al-Husayn Bin Ali-asws, from his-asws father-asws Ali-asws, having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘You-asws would be the first one to enter Paradise’. I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Will I-asws enter it before you-saww?’
قَالَ نَعَمْ لِأَنَّكَ صَاحِبُ لِوَائِي فِي الْآخِرَةِ كَمَا أَنَّكَ صَاحِبُ لِوَائِي فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ صَاحِبُ اللِّوَاءِ هُوَ الْمُتَقَدِّمُ
He-saww said: ‘Yes, because you-asws are bearer of the flag in the Hereafter, just as you are the bearer of my-saww flag in the world, and the bearer of the flag, he is at the forefront’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ ع يَا عَلِيُّ كَأَنِّي بِكَ وَ قَدْ دَخَلْتَ الْجَنَّةَ وَ بِيَدِكَ لِوَائِي وَ هُوَ لِوَاءُ الْحَمْدِ تَحْتَهُ آدَمُ فَمَنْ دُونَهُ
Then he-asws said: ‘O Ali-asws! It is as if I-saww am with you-asws, and you-asws have entered Paradise, and in your-asws hand is my-saww flag, and it is the flag of Praise. Beneath it would be Adam-as and the ones besides him-as’’.[9]

‘Tafseer Furat Bin Ibrahim’ – From Abu Ahmad Yahya Bin Ubeyd Bin Al Qasim Al Qazwiny, raising it to Abu Waqas who said,
‘The Prophet-saww prayed Salat Al-Fajr with us on the day of Friday, then turned around with his-saww honourable handsome face, and extolled upon Allah-azwj the Exalted, and he-saww said: ‘I-saww will come out on the Day of Qiyamah and Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws would be in front of me-asws, and in his-asws hand would be the flag of Praise, and on that Day he-asws will be clothed in two clothes, a cloth of silk and a cloth of brocade’.
فَوَثَبَ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ أَعْرَابِيٌّ مِنْ أَهْلِ نَجْدٍ مِنْ وُلْدِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ كِلَابِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ فَقَالَ قَدْ أَرْسَلُونِي إِلَيْكَ لِأَسْأَلَكَ فَقَالَ قُلْ يَا أَخَا الْبَادِيَةِ قَالَ مَا تَقُولُ فِي عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَقَدْ كَثُرَ الِاخْتِلَافُ فِيهِ
A Bedouin man from the people of Najd from the children of Ja’far Bin Kalb Bin Rabie leapt up to him-saww and he said, ‘They have sent me to you-saww, to ask you-saww’. He-saww said: ‘Say, O brother of the valley’. He said, ‘What are you-saww saying regarding Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, for the differing regarding him-asws has become a lot’.
فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص ضَاحِكاً فَقَالَ يَا أَعْرَابِيُّ وَ لِمَ كَثُرَ الِاخْتِلَافُ فِيهِ عَلِيٌّ مِنِّي كَرَأْسِي مِنْ بَدَنِي وَ زِرِّي مِنْ قَمِيصِي
Rasool-Allah-saww smiled and said: ‘O Bedouin! And why have the differences become a lot regarding him-asws? Ali-asws is from me-saww like my-saww head from my-saww body, and my-saww trousers from my-saww shirt’.
فَوَثَبَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ مُغْضَباً ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنِّي أَشَدُّ مِنْ عَلِيٍّ بَطْشاً فَهَلْ يَسْتَطِيعُ عَلِيٌّ أَنْ يَحْمِلَ لِوَاءَ الْحَمْدِ
The Bedouin leapt up angrily, then said, ‘O Muhammad-saww! I am stronger than Ali-asws in force (strength), so will Ali-asws be able to carry the flag of Praise?’
فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص مَهْلًا يَا أَعْرَابِيُّ فَقَدْ أُعْطِيَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ خِصَالًا شَتَّى حُسْنَ يُوسُفَ وَ زُهْدَ يَحْيَى وَ صَبْرَ أَيُّوبَ وَ طُولَ آدَمَ وَ قُوَّةَ جَبْرَئِيلَ عَلَيْهِمُ الصَّلَاةُ وَ السَّلَامُ وَ بِيَدِهِ لِوَاءُ الْحَمْدِ وَ كُلُّ الْخَلَائِقِ تَحْتَ اللِّوَاءِ وَ تَحُفُّ بِهِ الْأَئِمَّةُ وَ الْمُؤَذِّنُونَ بِتِلَاوَةِ الْقُرْآنِ وَ الْأَذَانِ وَ هُمُ الَّذِينَ لَا يَتَبَدَّدُونَ فِي قُبُورِهِمْ
The Prophet-saww said: ‘Shh no! O Bedouin, he-asws would be Given various qualities on the Day of Qiyamah – Beauty of Yusuf-as, and ascetism of Yahya-as, and patience of Ayoub-as, and length of Adam-as, and strength of Jibraeel-as, and his-asws hand would be the flag of Praise, and every creature would be beneath the flag, and be surrounded by the Imams-asws and the Muezzins with the recitation of the Quran and the Azan, and they are those who had not decayed in their graves.
فَوَثَبَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ مُغْضَباً وَ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ يَكُنْ مَا قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ حَقّاً فَأَنْزِلْ عَلَيَّ حَجَراً فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ سَأَلَ سائِلٌ بِعَذابٍ واقِعٍ لِلْكافِرينَ لَيْسَ لَهُ دافِعٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ ذِي الْمَعارِجِ
The Bedouin leapt up angrily and said, ‘O Allah-azwj! If what Muhammad-saww said happens to be true, Send down a rock upon me’. So, Allah-azwj Revealed regarding him: ‘A questioner, asked for the Punishment to befall [70:1] For the Kafirs, there wouldn’t be a dispeller for it [70:2] (It is) from Allah, One with the ways of ascent [70:3]’’.[10]

‘Tafseer Furat Bin Ibrahim’ – Abu Al Qasim Al-Husayni, raising it to Muaz Bin Jabal who said,
‘The Prophet-saww said: ‘Allah-azwj has Granted me-saww regarding Ali-asws, he-asws would be reclining in front of me-saww on the Day of Intercession; and Granted me another regarding Ali-asws that he-asws would be in charge of the keys on the day the doors of Paradise would be opened.
وَ أَعْطَانِي فِي عَلِيٍّ لِآخِرَتِي أَنِّي أُعْطَى يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَرْبَعَةَ أَلْوِيَةٍ فَلِوَاءُ الْحَمْدِ بِيَدِي وَ أَدْفَعُ لِوَاءَ التَّهْلِيلِ لِعَلِيٍّ وَ أُوَجِّهُهُ فِي أَوَّلِ فَوْجٍ وَ هُمُ الَّذِينَ يُحَاسَبُونَ حِسَاباً يَسِيراً وَ يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ عَلَيْهِمْ
And (He-azwj Granted me-saww another regarding Ali-asws. I-saww would be Given four flags on the Day of Qiyamah – The flag of Praise would be in my-saww hand, and I-saww shall hand over the flag of Tahleel (There is no god except Allah-azwj) to Ali-asws and he-asws will steer the first crowd, and they are those who would have been Reckoned with an easy Reckoning, and they will be entering Paradise without any Reckoning against them.
وَ أَدْفَعُ لِوَاءَ التَّكْبِيرِ إِلَى حَمْزَةَ وَ أُوَجِّهُهُ فِي الْفَوْجِ الثَّانِي وَ أَدْفَعُ لِوَاءَ التَّسْبِيحِ إِلَى جَعْفَرٍ وَ أُوَجِّهُهُ فِي الْفَوْجِ الثَّالِثِ ثُمَّ أُقِيمُ عَلَى أُمَّتِي حَتَّى أَشْفَعَ لَهُمْ ثُمَّ أَكُونُ أَنَا الْقَائِدَ وَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ السَّائِقَ حَتَّى أُدْخِلَ أُمَّتِي الْجَنَّةَ الْخَبَرَ

باب 19 أنه يدعى فيه كل أناس بإمامهم
CHAPTER 19 – THEY WILL BE CALLED DURING IT (DAY OF QIYAMAH) EVERY PERSON WITH THEIR IMAM
الآيات هود فَاتَّبَعُوا أَمْرَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَ ما أَمْرُ فِرْعَوْنَ بِرَشِيدٍ
The Verses – (Surah) Hud-as: but they (people) followed the orders of Pharaoh, and Pharaoh’s orders were not rightful guidance [11:97]
يَقْدُمُ قَوْمَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيامَةِ فَأَوْرَدَهُمُ النَّارَ وَ بِئْسَ الْوِرْدُ الْمَوْرُودُ
He shall lead his people on the Day of Qiyamah, and bring them around to the Fire; and evil is the place to which the ones would be led to [11:98]
الإسراء يَوْمَ نَدْعُوا كُلَّ أُناسٍ بِإِمامِهِمْ فَمَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ فَأُولئِكَ يَقْرَؤُنَ كِتابَهُمْ وَ لا يُظْلَمُونَ فَتِيلًا
(Surah) Al Asra’a: On the Day (of Judgment), We will be Calling every human being with their Imam. So one who is Given the Book in his right hand, so they would be reading their books and they would not be wronged (even) the husk of a date stone [17:71]
وَ مَنْ كانَ فِي هذِهِ أَعْمى فَهُوَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ أَعْمى وَ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلًا
And one who was blind regarding this, so he would be blind in the Hereafter and more straying from the way [17:72]
Notes –
رواه سعيد بن جبير عن ابن عباس: وَ رُوِيَ أَيْضاً عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع أَنَّ الْأَئِمَّةَ إِمَامُ هُدًى وَ إِمَامُ ضَلَالَةٍ
It is reported by Saeed Bin Jubeyr from Ibn Abbas, and it is reported as well from Ali-asws: ‘The Imams are – an Imam-asws of guidance and an imam of straying’.
وَ يَجْمَعُ هَذِهِ الْأَقْوَالَ مَا رُوِيَ عَنِ الرِّضَا ع بِالْأَسَانِيدِ الصَّحِيحَةِ أَنَّهُ رُوِيَ عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص أَنَّهُ قَالَ: فِيهِ يُدْعَى كُلُّ أُنَاسٍ بِإِمَامِ زَمَانِهِمْ وَ كِتَابِ رَبِّهِمْ وَ سُنَّةِ نَبِيِّهِ
And these words can be gathered by what is reported from Al-Reza-asws by the correct chains, he-asws reported from his-asws forefathers-asws, from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘During it (Day of Qiyamah), every people would be called with the imam of their time, and the Book of their Lord-azwj and Sunnah of its Prophet-as’.
وَ رُوِيَ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: لَا تُمَجِّدُونَ اللَّهَ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ فَدَعَا كُلُّ أُنَاسٍ إِلَى مَنْ يَتَوَلَّوْنَهُ وَ فَزِعْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ فَزِعْتُمْ إِلَيْنَا فَإِلَى أَيْنَ تَرَوْنَ يَذْهَبُ بِكُمْ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَ رَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ قَالَهَا ثَلَاثاً.
And it is reported from Al-Sadiq-asws, he said: ‘(Why are you) not Glorifying (Praising) Allah-azwj? When it will be the Day of Qiyiamah, every people will be called to the one they had been led by, and we-asws will be called to Rasool-Allah-saww, and you will be called to us-asws. To where (do you think) he-saww will be going with you all? To Paradise, by Lord-azwj of the Kaaba!’ – saying it thrice’.

‘From Abu Abdullah Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws having said: ‘When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, a Caller will call out from the interior of the Throne: “Where is the Caliph of Allah-azwj in His-azwj earth?” The Prophet Dawood-as would arise, but the Call will Come from the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: “We didn’t mean you-as, and even though you-as were a Caliph of Allah-azwj”.
ثُمَّ يُنَادِي ثَانِيَةً أَيْنَ خَلِيفَةُ اللَّهِ فِي أَرْضِهِ فَيَقُومُ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع فَيَأْتِي النِّدَاءُ مِنْ قِبَلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْخَلَائِقِ هَذَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ خَلِيفَةُ اللَّهِ فِي أَرْضِهِ وَ حُجَّتُهُ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ فَمَنْ تَعَلَّقَ بِحَبْلِهِ فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا فَلْيَتَعَلَّقْ بِحَبْلِهِ فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ يَسْتَضِيءُ بِنُورِهِ وَ لْيَتَّبِعْهُ إِلَى الدَّرَجَاتِ الْعُلَى مِنَ الْجَنَّاتِ
Then he would call secondly: “Where is the Caliph of Allah-azwj in His-azwj earth?” Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws will stand up, and the Call would come from the direction of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: “O community of creatures! This is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, Caliph of Allah-azwj in His-azwj earth, and His-azwj Divine Authority over His-azwj servants. The one who is attached with his-asws rope in the house of the world, then let him attach with his-asws rope during this Day and be illuminated by his-asws light, and let him follow him-asws to the lofty ranks from the Gardens!”

He-asws said: ‘The people will arise, those who had attached with his-asws rope in the world, and they would follow him-asws to Paradise.

Then the Call will come from the Presence of Allah-azwj, Majestic is His-azwj Majesty: “Indeed! One who had followed an Imam in the world, then let him follow him wherever he may go with him! When those who were followed shall disavow from those who followed (them), and they see the Punishment, and the reasons are cut off with them [2:166].

And those who followed shall say: ‘If only there was a return for us, we would disavow from them just as they are disavowing from us. Like that, Allah will Show their deeds to them as regrets upon them, and they will not be exiting from the Fire [2:167]’’.[15]

And the right hand, is affirmation of the Imam-asws, because it is a book for him to be reading, because Allah-azwj is Saying: So as for one Given his book in his right hand, he would be saying, ‘Behold! Read my book [69:19] I thought I would meet my Reckoning’ [69:20] – up to the end of the Verses.

The one who befriends them-asws, and follows them-asws, and ratifies them-asws, so he is from me-saww, and with me-saww, and would be meeting me-saww. Indeed! The one who oppresses them-asws and belies them-asws, he is neither from me-saww, nor with me-saww, and I-saww disavow from him’’.[25]

‘From Abu Zarr-ra, he (the narrator) said, ‘When Abu Zarr-ra went to gather, him-ra and Ali-asws, and Al-Miqdad Bin Al-Aswad, he-ra said, ‘Aren’t you witnesses that Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘My-saww community will return to me-saww at the Fountain upon five flags – the first of it would be the flag of the calf (Abu Bakr). I-saww will stand and grab his hand, and when I-saww do grab his hand, his face would darken, and his feet would tremble, and his bones would knock, and of the ones who followed him in that deed.
فَأَقُولُ مَا ذَا خَلَفْتُمُونِي فِي الثَّقَلَيْنِ بَعْدِي فَيَقُولُونَ كَذَّبْنَا الْأَكْبَرَ وَ مَزَّقْنَاهُ وَ اضْطَهَدْنَا الْأَصْغَرَ وَ ابْتَزَزْنَاهُ حَقَّهُ فَأَقُولُ اسْلُكُوا ذَاتَ الشِّمَالِ فَيُصْرَفُونَ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُهُمْ لَا يَطْعَمُونَ مِنْهُ قَطْرَةً
I-saww will say: ‘What did you do regarding the two weighty things after me-saww?’ They would be saying, ‘We belied the bigger (of the two weighty things – Quran) and tore it, and we persecuted the smaller (of the two weighty things – Ali-asws) and snatched his-asws rights’. I-saww would be saying: ‘Go to the left’. So, they would be dispersing thirsty, blackened of faces, not having been quenched a drop from it (the Fountain).
ثُمَّ تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ رَايَةُ فِرْعَوْنِ أُمَّتِي فِيهِمْ أَكْثَرُ النَّاسِ وَ هُمُ الْمُبَهْرَجُونَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ مَا الْمُبَهْرَجُونَ أَ بَهْرَجُوا الطَّرِيقَ قَالَ لَا وَ لَكِنَّهُمْ بَهْرَجُوا دِينَهُمْ وَ هُمُ الَّذِينَ يَغْضَبُونَ لِلدُّنْيَا وَ لَهَا يَرْضَوْنَ وَ لَهَا يَسْخَطُونَ وَ لَهَا يَنْصِبُونَ
Then there would return to me-saww the flag of the Pharaoh of my-saww community (Umar), among them being a lot of people, and they would be the falsifiers. I-ra said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! And what are the falsifying ones? Did they falsify the path?’ He-saww said: ‘No, but, they falsified their religion, and they are those who were wrathful for the world, and for it they were pleased and for it they were angry, and for it they established hostility.

Then I-saww would grab their master, and when I-saww did grab his hand, his face would blacken, and his feet would tremble, and his bones would knock, and of the ones who did that would follow him.

I-saww would say: ‘Travel the road of your master’, and they would disperse thirsty, blackened of faces, not being quenched a drop from it (Fountain).

Then the flag of so and so would return to me-saww, and he is the imam of fifty thousand from my-saww community, and I-saww would stand and grab his hand. When I-saww do grab his hand, his face would blacken, and his feet would tremble, and his bones would knock, and of the ones who did that, would follow him. I-azwj would say: ‘Why did you oppose me-saww regarding the two weighty things after me-saww?’ They would say, ‘We belied the greater (Quran) and disobeyed it, and we abandoned the smaller (Ali-asws and forsook him’. I-saww shall say: ‘Travel the way of your master’. They will disperse thirsty, blackened of faces, not being quenched a drop from it.

Then Al-Makhdaj will return to me-saww with his flag, and he is the imam of seventy thousand from my-saww community. When I-saww grab his hand, his face would darken, and his feet would tremble, and his bones would knock, and the ones who did that, they will follow him. I-saww shall say: ‘What did you do regarding the two weighty things after me-saww?’
فَيَقُولُونَ كَذَّبْنَا الْأَكْبَرَ وَ عَصَيْنَاهُ وَ قَاتَلْنَا الْأَصْغَرَ فَقَتَلْنَاهُ فَأَقُولُ اسْلُكُوا سَبِيلَ أَصْحَابِكُمْ فَيَنْصَرِفُونَ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُهُمْ لَا يَطْعَمُونَ مِنْهُ قَطْرَةً

Then will return to me-saww Ali-asws Emir of the Momineen-asws and guide of the resplendent, so I-saww shall stand up and grab his-asws hand, and his-asws face would brighten and (so will) the faces of his-asws companions.

And Anas (well-known fabricator), said, ‘One day while Rasool-Allah-saww was in our midst when he-saww dozed off, then raised his-saww head smiling. I said, ‘What makes you-saww smile, O Rasool-Allah-saww?’ He-saww said a Chapter has just been Revealed to me-saww’. Then he-saww read Surah Al Kauser.
ثُمَّ قَالَ أَ تَدْرُونَ مَا الْكَوْثَرُ قُلْنَا اللَّهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ
Then he-saww said: ‘Do you know what is ‘Al Kauser’?’ We said, ‘Allah-azwj and His Rasool-saww are more knowing!’
قَالَ فَإِنَّهُ نَهَرٌ وَعَدَنِيهِ رَبِّي عَلَيْهِ خَيْراً كَثِيراً هُوَ حَوْضِي تَرِدُ عَلَيْهِ أُمَّتِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ آنِيَتُهُ عَدَدُ نُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ فَيُخْتَلَجُ الْقَرْنُ مِنْهُمْ فَأَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ إِنَّهُمْ مِنْ أُمَّتِي فَيُقَالُ إِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي مَا أَحْدَثُوا بَعْدَكَ أَوْرَدَهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ
He said: ‘It is a river my-saww Lord-azwj has Promised a lot of goodness upon it. It is a fountain my-saww community will be arriving to on the Day of Qiyamah. Its vessels (goblets) are the number of stars of the sky. A group from them will be driven away, so I-saww will say: ‘O Lord-azwj! They are from my-saws community!’ He-azwj will Say: “You-saww don’t know what they had innovated after you-saww!”- Muslim has reported it in the ‘Saheeh’’.

‘Basharat Al-Mustafa-saww’ – Al Mufeed, from Ibn Qawlaeiya, from Al-Husayn Bin Muhammad Bin Aamir, from Al Moala Ibn Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Jamhour Al Ammy, from Ibn Mahboub, from Abu Muhammad Al Wabishy, from Abu Al Warad who said,
From Abu Ja’far Muhammad-asws Bin Ali Al-Baqir-asws saying: ‘When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, Allah-azwj will Gather the people in one plain, the former ones and the latter ones, (all) barefooted. They would be pausing on the road of the Plains of Resurrection until they sweat intensely and breathe heavily. They would remain like that for as long as Allah-azwj so Desires, and that is His-azwj Speech: so you will not hear except for whispers [20:108]’.
قَالَ ثُمَّ يُنَادِي مُنَادٍ مِنْ تِلْقَاءِ الْعَرْشِ أَيْنَ النَّبِيُّ الْأُمِّيُّ قَالَ فَيَقُولُ النَّاسُ قَدْ أَسْمَعْتَ كُلًّا فَسَمِّ بِاسْمِهِ
He (Abu Ja’far-asws) said: ‘Then a Caller will call out from the front of the Throne: ‘Where is the Ummi Prophet-saww?’ The people would be saying, ‘We have heard all names, therefore call him-saww by his-saww name’.
قَالَ فَيُنَادِي أَيْنَ نَبِيُّ الرَّحْمَةِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ فَيَقُومُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فَيَتَقَدَّمُ أَمَامَ النَّاسِ كُلِّهِمْ حَتَّى يَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى حَوْضٍ طُولُهُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْلَةَ وَ صَنْعَاءَ فَيَقِفُ عَلَيْهِ
Then he will call out: ‘Where is the Prophet of Mercy Muhammad-saww Bin Abdullah-asws?’ Rasool-Allah-saww will stand up. He-saww will advance in front of all the people until he-saww will end up to the Fountain, the length of which is what is between Eilat (in Jordan) and Sana’a (in Yemen). He-saww will stand at it.
ثُمَّ يُنَادِي بِصَاحِبِكُمْ فَيَقُومُ أَمَامَ النَّاسِ فَيَقِفُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ يُؤَذِّنُ لِلنَّاسِ فَيَمُرُّونَ
Then he will call out with your Master-asws. The Imam-asws of the people will arise and stand with him-saww. Then the people will be permitted and they would be passing by’.
قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع فَبَيْنَ وَارِدٍ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَ بَيْنَ مَصْرُوفٍ فَإِذَا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ يُصْرَفُ عَنْهُ مِنْ مُحِبِّينَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ بَكَى وَ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ شِيعَةُ عَلِيٍّ يَا رَبِّ شِيعَةُ عَلِيٍّ
Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘Some of them will be taken and they will be made to leave it. When Rasool-Allah-saww sees the ones from those that love us-asws are being made to leave, he-saww will weep and say: ‘O Lord-azwj, Shias of Ali-asws! O Lord-azwj, Shias of Ali-asws!’
قَالَ فَيَبْعَثُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ مَلَكاً فَيَقُولُ لَهُ مَا يُبْكِيكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قَالَ فَيَقُولُ وَ كَيْفَ لَا أَبْكِي لِأُنَاسٍ مِنْ شِيعَةِ أَخِي عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أَرَاهُمْ قَدْ صُرِفُوا تِلْقَاءَ أَصْحَابِ النَّارِ وَ مُنِعُوا مِنْ وُرُودِ حَوْضِي
He-asws said: ‘An Angel will be Sent to him-saww who will say to him-saww: ‘O Muhammad-saww, what makes you weep?’ He-saww will say: ‘And how can I-saww not weep and I-saww see that the people from the Shias of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws have left joining up with the companions of the Fire and are being prevented from returning to my-saww Fountain?’
قَالَ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَهُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنِّي قَدْ وَهَبْتُهُمْ لَكَ وَ صَفَحْتُ لَكَ عَنْ ذُنُوبِهِمْ وَ أَلْحَقْتُهُمْ بِكَ وَ بِمَنْ كَانُوا يَتَوَلَّوْنَ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ وَ جَعَلْتُهُمْ فِي زُمْرَتِكَ وَ أَوْرَدْتُهُمْ حَوْضَكَ وَ قَبِلْتُ شَفَاعَتَكَ فِيهِمْ وَ أَكْرَمْتُكَ بِذَلِكَ
Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic will say to him-saww: “O Muhammad-saww! I-azwj have Gifted them to you-saww and have Pardoned for you-saww from their sins, and will Join them with you-saww, those that loved your-saww offspring, and Made them to be in your-saww group, and I-azwj am Returning them to your-saww Fountain, and have Accepted your-saww intercession regarding them, and have Honoured them by that’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع فَكَمْ مِنْ بَاكٍ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَ بَاكِيَةٍ يُنَادُونَ يَا مُحَمَّدَاهْ إِذَا رَأَوْا ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَلَا يَبْقَى أَحَدٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّانَا وَ يُحِبُّنَا إِلَّا كَانَ فِي حِزْبِنَا وَ مَعَنَا وَ وَرَدَ حَوْضَنَا.
Then Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘And how many will weep on that day and be calling out, ‘O Muhammad-saww!’, when they see that. There would not remain anyone on that Day who used to be in our-asws Wilayah and love us-asws, and disavowed from our-asws enemies and hated them, except that he will be from our-asws group, and with us-asws, around our-asws Fountain’’.[33]

‘Majalis’ of Al Mufeed’, ‘Al-Amaali’ of the sheykh Al Tusi – Al Mufeed, from Ali Bin Hilal Al Mahlaby, from Ahmad Bin Al-Husayn al Baghdady, from Muhamad Bin Ismail, from Muhammad Bin Al Salt, from Abu Kadeyba, from Ata’a, from Saeed Bin Jubeyr, from Abdullah Bin Abbas who said,
‘When the Verse: Indeed, We Gave you Al-Kausar [108:1] was Revealed unto the Prophet-saww, Ali-asws said to him-saww: ‘What is this ‘Al-Kausar’, O Rasool-Allah-saww?’ He-saww said: ‘A river which Allah-azwj has Honoured me-saww by’. He-asws said: ‘This honourable river, describe it for us, O Rasool-Allah-saww’.

He-saww said: ‘Yes, O Ali-asws. Al-Kausar is a river which flows from underneath the Throne of Allah-azwj. Its water is whiter than milk, and sweeter than honey, and softer than butter. Its gravel is of aquamarine, and the rubies and the coral. Its grass is of saffron, its sand is of fragrant musk, its base is underneath the Throne of Allah-azwj the Mighty and Majestic’.
ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَدَهُ فِي جَنْبِ عَلِيٍّ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَ قَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ إِنَّ هَذَا النَّهَرَ لِي وَ لَكَ وَ لِمُحِبِّيكَ مِنْ بَعْدِي
Then Rasool-Allah-saww struck the side of Amir Al-Momineen-asws with his-saww hand, and he-saww said to him-asws: ‘O Ali-asws! This river is for me-saww, and for you-asws, and for those who love you-asws from after me-saww’’.[34]

‘The Prophet-saww said: ‘Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Gave me-saww a river in the sky flowing beneath the Throne. Upon it are a thousand upon thousands of castles, built from gold, and built from silver, its grass being of saffron, and its gravel is of the gems and rubies, and its ground is of white musk.

The man will say, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! I am so and so, son of so and so’. But I-saww shall say: ‘As for the lineage, so I-saww recognise it, but you all took to the left after me-saww and you returned backwards upon your heels’’.[43]

‘Majalis’ of Al Mufeed, ‘Al-Amaali’ of the sheykh Al Tusi – Al Mufeed, from Al Ja’aby, from Ibn Aqadah, from Abu Awanah Musa Al Qatan, form Muhammad Bin Yahya Al Awdy, from Ismail Bin Aban, from Ali Bin Hashim Bin Al Bureyd, from his father, from Abdul Rahman Al Razaq Bin Qays Al Rahby who said,
‘I was seated with Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws at the door of the government building until the sun sheltered him-asws to a wall of the building. He-asws leapt up to enter, and a man from Hamdan stood up and grabbed his-asws cloth and said, ‘O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! Narrate a summarised Hadeeth for me, Allah-azwj would benefit me with it’. He-asws said: ‘O, haven’t there happened many Ahadeeth?’ He said, ‘Yes, but narrate to me a summarised Hadeeth Allah-azwj would benefit me with it’.
قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي خَلِيلِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنِّي أَرِدُ أَنَا وَ شِيعَتِي الْحَوْضَ رِوَاءً مَرْوِيِّينَ مُبْيَضَّةً وُجُوهُهُمْ وَ يَرِدُ عَدُوُّنَا ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسْوَدَّةً وُجُوهُهُمْ خُذْهَا إِلَيْكَ قَصِيرَةٌ مِنْ طَوِيلَةٍ أَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ وَ لَكَ مَا اكْتَسَبْتَ أَرْسِلْنِي يَا أَخَا هَمْدَانَ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ الْقَصْرَ
He-asws said: ‘My-asws friend Rasool-Allah-saww narrated to me-asws that I-asws and my-asws Shias would return from the Fountain fully quenched, their faces whitened, and our-asws enemies will return thirsty, unquenched, of blackened faces. Take it (this Hadeeth) to you, as being short from a lengthy one. You would be with the one you love, and for you, whatever you earn. Let me go, O brother of Hamdan!’ Then he-asws entered the government building’’.[45]

‘Al-Amaali’ of the sheykh Al Tusi – Al Mufeed, from Ali Bin Muhammad the scribe, from Al-Hassan Bin Ali Al Zafrany, from Ibrahim Bin Muhammad Al Saqafy, from Abu Ja’far Al Asady, from Yahya Bin Abdul Hameed Al Hamany, from Qays Bin Al Rabie, from Sa’ad Bin Tareyf, from Al Asbagh Bin Nubata, from Abu Ayoub Al Ansary,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww was asked about the Fountain, so he-saww said: ‘But, since you have asked me-saww, I-saww shall inform you. The Fountain is what Allah-azwj has Honoured me-saww with, and Preferred me-saww over the ones who were before me-saww from the Prophets-as, and it is what is between Eilat (Israel) and Sana’a (Yemen). There are as many utensils in it as there are stars in the sky.
يَسِيلُ فِيهِ خَلِيجَانِ مِنَ الْمَاءِ مَاؤُهُ أَشَدُّ بَيَاضاً مِنَ اللَّبَنِ وَ أَحْلَى مِنَ الْعَسَلِ حَصَاهُ الزُّمُرُّدُ وَ الْيَاقُوتُ بَطْحَاؤُهُ مِسْكٌ أَذْفَرُ شَرْطٌ مَشْرُوطٌ مِنْ رَبِّي لَا يَرِدُهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي إِلَّا النَّقِيَّةُ قُلُوبُهُمْ الصَّحِيحَةُ نِيَّاتُهُمْ الْمُسَلِّمُونَ لِوَصِيٍ مِنْ بَعْدِي الَّذِينَ يُعْطُونَ مَا عَلَيْهِمْ فِي يُسْرٍ وَ لَا يَأْخُذُونَ مَا عَلَيْهِمْ فِي عُسْرٍ
Two inlets of water flow into it. Its water is intensely whiter than the snow, and sweeter than the honey. Its pebbles are of emeralds and sapphire. Its soil is of strong musk. There is a stipulated condition of my-saww Lord-azwj that I-saww will not let anyone from my-saww community arrive at it except the ones of pure hearts, their intentions being correct, the submitters to the my-saww successor-asws from after me-saww, those who gave whatever was upon them during ease, and were not taking what was against them during the difficulty.
يَذُودُ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَنْ لَيْسَ مِنْ شِيعَتِهِ كَمَا يَذُودُ الرَّجُلُ الْبَعِيرَ الْأَجْرَبَ مِنْ إِبِلِهِ مَنْ شَرِبَ مِنْهُ لَمْ يَظْمَأْ أَبَداً
He-asws will impede those on the Day of Qiyamah, the one who wasn’t from his-asws Shias, just as the man tends to impede the stray camel to come to his flock of camels. One who drinks from it will not be thirsty, ever!.[46]

‘Al-Amaali’ of Al-Sadouq – Ali Bin Ahmad Bin Musa, from Muhammad Al Asady, from Al Barmakky, from Ja’far Ibn Ahmad Al, Tameemy, from his father, from Abdul Malik Bin Umeyr Al Shaybani, from his father, from his grandfather, from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘I-saww am the chief of the Prophets-as and the Mursils-as, and superior than the Angels of Proximity, and my-saww successor-asws is the chief of the successors-as of the Prophets-as and the Mursils-as, and my-saww offspring is the most superior of the offspring of the Prophets-as and the Mursils-as, and my-saww companions those who conducted themselves upon my-saww manifesto are the most superior of the companions of the Prophets-as and the Mursils-as, and my-saww daughter-asws (Syeda) Fatima-asws is the chieftess of the women of the worlds, and the pure ones from my-saww wives are the mothers of the Momineen, and my-saww community is the best of the communities raised up for the people [3:110].
وَ أَنَا أَكْثَرُ النَّبِيِّينَ تَبَعاً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَ لِي حَوْضٌ عَرْضُهُ مَا بَيْنَ بُصْرَى وَ صَنْعَاءَ فِيهِ مِنَ الْأَبَارِيقِ عَدَدُ نُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ وَ خَلِيفَتِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَلِيفَتِي فِي الدُّنْيَا
And from the Prophets-as, I-saww will be of the most followers on the Day of Qiyamah, and for me-saww there is a Fountain, its width is what is between Basra (Iraq) and Sana’a (Yemen) wherein are goblets the number of the stars of the sky, and my-saww Caliph would be at the Fountain on that Day is my-saww Caliph in the world.
فَقِيلَ وَ مَنْ ذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ إِمَامُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ مَوْلَاهُمْ بَعْدِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ يَسْقِي مِنْهُ أَوْلِيَاءَهُ وَ يَذُودُ عَنْهُ أَعْدَاءَهُ كَمَا يَذُودُ أَحَدُكُمُ الْغَرِيبَةَ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ عَنِ الْمَاءِ
It was said, ‘And who is that, O Rasool-Allah-saww?’ He-saww said: ‘Imam-asws of the Muslims, and Emir of the Momineen, and their Master after me-saww, Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. He-asws will quench his-asws friends from it, and impede his-asws enemies from it, just as one of you tends to impede the strange one from the camel from the water’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ ع مَنْ أَحَبَّ عَلِيّاً وَ أَطَاعَهُ فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا وَرَدَ عَلَيَّ حَوْضِي غَداً وَ كَانَ مَعِي فِي دَرَجَتِي فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ مَنْ أَبْغَضَ عَلِيّاً فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا وَ عَصَاهُ لَمْ أَرَهُ وَ لَمْ يَرَنِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَ اخْتَلَجَ دُونِي وَ أُخِذَ بِهِ ذَاتَ الشِّمَالِ إِلَى النَّارِ
Then he-saww said: ‘One who loves Ali-asws, and obeys him-asws in the house of the world would return to me-saww at my-saww Fountain tomorrow, and would be with me-saww in my-saww level in Paradise. And the one who hates Ali-asws in the house of the world and disobeys him-asws, will not see him-asws and will not see me-saww on the Day of Qiyamah, and will shudder besides me-saww, and would be seized with by the left hand to the Fire’’.[47]

‘Sawab Al Amaal’ – My father, from Sa’ad, from Al Barqy, from Ibn Mihran, from his father, from Is’haq Ibn Jareer who said,
‘Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘Your cousin came to me-asws as if he was an insane Bedouin, and upon him was a trouser and a pallium, and his slippers were in his hand, and he said to me-asws, ‘There are a people who are speaking regarding (against) you-asws’. I-asws said to him: ‘Aren’t you an Arab?’ He said, ‘Yes’. I-asws said: ‘The Arabs don’t hate Ali-asws’.
ثُمَّ قُلْتُ لَهُ لَعَلَّكَ مِمَّنْ يُكَذِّبُ بِالْحَوْضِ أَمَا وَ اللَّهِ لَئِنْ أَبْغَضْتَهُ ثُمَّ وَرَدْتَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَوْضَ لَتَمُوتَنَّ عَطَشاً
Then I-asws said to him: ‘Perhaps (they are) from the one who belie the Fountain. But, by Allah-azwj! If you were to hate him-asws, then return to him-asws at the Fountain, you will die of thirst![48]
17- مل، كامل الزيارات مُحَمَّدٌ الْحِمْيَرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَصَمِّ عَنْ مِسْمَعٍ كِرْدِينٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: إِنَّ الْمُوجَعَ قَلْبُهُ لَنَا لَيَفْرَحُ يَوْمَ يَرَانَا عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ فَرْحَةً لَا تَزَالُ تِلْكَ الْفَرْحَةُ فِي قَلْبِهِ حَتَّى يَرِدَ عَلَيْنَا الْحَوْضَ وَ إِنَّ الْكَوْثَرَ لَيَفْرَحُ بِمُحِبِّنَا إِذَا وَرَدَ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى إِنَّهُ لَيُذِيقُهُ مِنْ ضُرُوبِ الطَّعَامِ مَا لَا يَشْتَهِي أَنْ يَصْدُرَ عَنْهُ
Kamil Al Ziyaraat’ – Muhammad Al Humeyri, from his father, from Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Salim, from Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Abdullah Bin Hamad, from Abdullah Al Asam, from Masma’a Kardeyn,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘The one with an aching heart for us-asws, will be seeing us-asws at his death being happy. That happiness will not cease to be in his heart until he returns to us-asws at the Fountain. And the Kausar will be happy with one who loves us-asws when he returns to it, until it makes him taste from a variety of foods what he had not craved for that it would be implemented from it.
يَا مِسْمَعُ مَنْ شَرِبَ مِنْهُ شَرْبَةً لَمْ يَظْمَأْ بَعْدَهَا أَبَداً وَ لَمْ يَشْقَ بَعْدَهَا أَبَداً وَ هُوَ فِي بَرْدِ الْكَافُورِ وَ رِيحِ الْمِسْكِ وَ طَعْمِ الزَّنْجَبِيلِ أَحْلَى مِنَ الْعَسَلِ وَ أَلْيَنُ مِنَ الزُّبْدِ وَ أَصْفَى مِنَ الدَّمْعِ وَ أَذْكَى مِنَ الْعَنْبَرِ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ تَسْنِيمٍ وَ يَمُرُّ بِأَنْهَارِ الْجِنَانِ تَجْرِي عَلَى رَضْرَاضِ الدُّرِّ وَ الْيَاقُوتِ
O Masma’a! One who drinks a drink from it would not be thirsty after it, ever, and will not crave after it, ever, and he will be in the cool of the camphor and aroma of musk and food of Al-Zanjabeel, sweeter than the honey, and softer than the butter, and clearer than the tears, and purer than the Anber, coming out from Tasneem, and passing by the river of the Gardens, flowing upon the gravel of the gems and the rubies.
فِيهِ مِنَ الْقِدْحَانِ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ عَدَدِ نُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ يُوجَدُ رِيحُهُ مِنْ مَسِيرَةِ أَلْفِ عَامٍ قِدْحَانُهُ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ وَ الْفِضَّةِ وَ أَلْوَانِ الْجَوْهَرِ يَفُوحُ فِي وَجْهِ الشَّارِبِ مِنْهُ كُلُّ فَائِحَةٍ حَتَّى يَقُولَ الشَّارِبُ مِنْهُ لَيْتَنِي تُرِكْتُ هَاهُنَا لَا أَبْغِي بِهَذَا بَدَلًا وَ لَا عَنْهُ تَحْوِيلًا
Therein are cups more than the number of the stars of the sky, its aroma can be found from a travel distance of a thousand years. Its cups are of gold and silver, and a variety of gems. Its aroma would be in the face of the drinker from it with all aroma until the drinker from it would be saying, ‘If only I could be left over here, I will not be seeking any replacement with this, nor any transfer from it’.
أَمَا إِنَّكَ يَا كِرْدِينُ مِمَّنْ تَرْوَى مِنْهُ وَ مَا مِنْ عَيْنٍ بَكَتْ لَنَا إِلَّا نُعِّمَتْ بِالنَّظَرِ إِلَى الْكَوْثَرِ وَ سُقِيَتْ مِنْهُ مَنْ أَحَبَّنَا وَ إِنَّ الشَّارِبَ مِنْهُ لَيُعْطَى مِنَ اللَّذَّةِ وَ الطَّعْمِ وَ الشَّهْوَةِ لَهُ أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا يُعْطَاهُ مَنْ هُوَ دُونَهُ فِي حُبِّنَا
But you, O Kardeyn, are from the ones who would be quenched from it, and there is none from an eye who cries for us-asws, except it would be favoured with the looking at Al-Kausar; and he would be quenched from it, the one who loves us-asws, and that the drinker from it would be given from the pleasure and the taste and the desire for it more than what was given to the ones besides him, in our-asws love.
وَ إِنَّ عَلَى الْكَوْثَرِ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ فِي يَدِهِ عَصَاءٌ مِنْ عَوْسَجٍ يَحْطِمُ بِهَا أَعْدَاءَنَا فَيَقُولُ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ إِنِّي أَشْهَدُ الشَّهَادَتَيْنِ فَيَقُولُ انْطَلِقْ إِلَى إِمَامِكَ فُلَانٍ فَاسْأَلْهُ أَنْ يَشْفَعَ لَكَ فَيَقُولُ تَبَرَّأَ مِنِّي إِمَامِيَ الَّذِي تَذْكُرُهُ
And that upon (in charge of) Al-Kausar would be Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and in his-asws hand would be a stick of thorns breaking up our-asws enemies (dispersing them), so the man from them would say, ‘I used to testify with two testimonies!’ He-asws will say, ‘Go to your so and so imam and ask him for the intercession for you’. He will say, ‘My imam has disavowed from me, the one whom you mentioned’.
فَيَقُولُ ارْجِعْ وَرَاءَكَ فَقُلْ لِلَّذِي كُنْتَ تَتَوَلَّاهُ وَ تُقَدِّمُهُ عَلَى الْخَلْقِ فَاسْأَلْهُ إِذْ كَانَ عِنْدَكَ خَيْرُ الْخَلْقِ أَنْ يَشْفَعَ لَكَ فَإِنَّ خَيْرَ الْخَلْقِ حَقِيقٌ أَنْ لَا يُرَدَّ إِذَا شَفَعَ فَيَقُولُ إِنِّي أَهْلِكُ عَطَشاً فَيَقُولُ زَادَكَ اللَّهُ ظَمَأً وَ زَادَكَ اللَّهُ عَطَشاً
He-asws will say, ‘Turn back and say to the one whom you had made a ruler and forwarded him to the people, and ask him – when he was the best of the people in your presence – that he intercedes for you, for the best of the people in reality is one who does not reject when asked for intercession’. He will say, ‘I am dying of thirst!’ He-asws will say: ‘May Allah-azwj Increase your dryness and may Allah-azwj Increase your thirst’.
قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ وَ كَيْفَ يَقْدِرُ عَلَى الدُّنُوِّ مِنَ الْحَوْضِ وَ لَمْ يَقْدِرْ عَلَيْهِ غَيْرُهُ
I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! And how would he be able to come near to the Fountain and the others would not be able to get upon it?’
قَالَ وَرِعَ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ قَبِيحَةٍ وَ كَفَّ عَنْ شَتْمِنَا إِذَا ذَكَرَنَا وَ تَرَكَ أَشْيَاءَ اجْتَرَأَ عَلَيْهَا غَيْرُهُ وَ لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ لِحُبِّنَا وَ لَا لِهَوًى مِنْهُ لَنَا وَ لَكِنْ ذَلِكَ لِشِدَّةِ اجْتِهَادِهِ فِي عِبَادَتِهِ وَ تَدَيُّنِهِ وَ لِمَا قَدْ شُغِلَ بِهِ نَفْسُهُ عَنْ ذِكْرِ النَّاسِ فَأَمَّا قَلْبُهُ فَمُنَافِقٌ وَ دِينُهُ النَّصْبُ وَ اتِّبَاعُهُ أَهْلَ النَّصْبِ وَ وَلَايَةَ الْمَاضِينَ وَ تَقْدِيمُهُ لَهُمَا عَلَى كُلِّ أَحَدٍ
He-asws said: ‘Abstain from ugly things and refrain from insulting us-asws when we-asws mentioned, and leave the things others are audacious upon, and that is neither due to any love for us-asws nor any sentiment from him for us-asws, but that is due to the severity of his struggle in his worship and his religion, and when he had pre-occupied with himself from mentioning the people. As for his heart, it was that of a hypocrite, and his religion was of the hostility (Nasibi), and his following, the hostile people and the rulership of the past ones (Abu Bakr and Umar); and his placing them forward over everyone.[49]

‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said regarding the Words of the Mighty and Majestic: On the Day faces would be whitened and faces would be blackened. [3:106] – the Verse: ‘The Prophet-saww said: ‘My-saww community would be gathered on the Day of Qiyamah until they return to me-saww at the Fountain.

‘Kanz ‘Jamie Al Fawaid’ – Muhammad Bin Al Abbas, from Ahmad Bin Saeed Al Aamiry, from Ismail Bin Zakariya, from Muhammad Bin Awn, from ikramah, from Ibn Abbas,
‘Regarding the Words of the Exalted: Indeed, We Gave you Al-Kausar [108:1]. He-asws said: ‘A river in Paradise, its depth in the earth is of seventy thousand Farsakhs, its water is intensely whiter than the milk, and sweeter than the honey, its shore is from the pearls, and the aquamarine and the sapphire. Allah-azwj has Particularised it for His-azwj Prophet-saww and the People-asws of his-saww Household, besides the Prophets-as’’.[56]
25- وَ يُؤَيِّدُهُ مَا رَوَاهُ أَيْضاً عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ حُصَيْنِ بْنِ مُخَارِقٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَرَانِي جَبْرَئِيلُ مَنَازِلِي وَ مَنَازِلَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي عَلَى الْكَوْثَرِ
And it is supported by what is reported as well from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Haseyr Bin Makhariq, from Amro Bin Khalid, from his father,
‘From Ali-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Jibraeel-as showed me-saww my-saww house and the houses of the People-asws of my-saww Household upon Al-Kausar’’.[57]

And it is strengthened as well by what is reported from Al-Hassan Bin Mahboub, from Ali Bin Raib, from Masma’a Ibn Abu Sayrah, from Anas Bin Malik who said,
‘I heard Rasool-Allah-saww saying: ‘When there was an Ascension with me-saww to the seventh sky, Jibraeel-as said: ‘Proceed in front of you-saww, O Muhammad-saww’ – and showed me Al-Kausar, and said: ‘O Muhammad-saww! This Al-Kausar is for you-saww besides the Prophets-as’. I-saww saw upon it a lot of castles, a lot of pearls, and sapphire and gems.
وَ قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ هَذِهِ مَسَاكِنُكَ وَ مَسَاكِنُ وَزِيرِكَ وَ وَصِيِّكَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ ذُرِّيَّتِهِ الْأَبْرَارِ

And it is reported as well from Ahmad Bin Howdah, from Ibrahim Bin Is’haq, from Abdullah Bin Hammad, from Humran Bin Ayn,
From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww prayed the morning Salat, then turned towards Ali-asws. He said: ‘O Ali-asws! What is this Noor which I-saww see to have overwhelmed you-asws?’
قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَصَابَتْنِي جَنَابَةٌ فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ فَأَخَذْتُ بَطْنَ الْوَادِي وَ لَمْ أُصِبِ الْمَاءَ فَلَمَّا وَلَّيْتُ نَادَانِي مُنَادٍ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَالْتَفَتُّ فَإِذَا خَلْفِي إِبْرِيقٌ مَمْلُوءٌ مِنْ مَاءٍ فَاغْتَسَلْتُ
He said: ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Sexual impurity had afflicted me-asws in this night so I-asws took to the interior of the valey but could not attain the water. When I-asws turned back a caller called out to me-asws: ‘O Amir Al-Momineen-asws!’ I-asws turned around, and behold there was a pitcher full of water behind me-asws. I-asws washed’.

Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! As for the caller, it was Jibraeel, and the water was from a river called ‘Al Kauser’. There are twelve thousand trees upon it, each tree has three hundred and sixty branches. Whenever the people of Paradise want the delight of music, a wind blows, and there isn’t any tree nor branch except and it is of a sound sweeter than the other, and had Allah-azwj not Dexreed upon the people of Paradise that they will not be dying, they would have died of joy from the intensity of the sweetness of those sounds, and this rive is in the Garden of Eden and it is for me-saww, and for you-asws, and for (Syeda) Fatima-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws, and Al-Husayn-asws, and there isn’t anything in it for anyone (else)’.

He-saww said: ‘Yes, O Ali-asws! Al-Kausar is a river flowing from beneath His-azwj Throne. Its water is whiter than the milk, and sweeter than the honey, and softer than the butter. Its pebbles are of gems and sapphire and the coral, its soil is of strong musk, its grass is of saffron.

It outside appears from its inside, and its inside (is visible) from its outside.
فَبَكَى النَّبِيُّ ص وَ أَصْحَابُهُ ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع فَقَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ وَ اللَّهِ مَا هُوَ لِي وَحْدِي وَ إِنَّمَا هُوَ لِي وَ لَكَ وَ لِمُحِبِّيكَ مِنْ بَعْدِي
The Prophet-saww and his-saww companions wept, then he-saww struck his-saww hand towards Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and he-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! By Allah-azwj, it is not for me-saww alone, and rather it is for me-saww and for you-asws, and for ones who love you-asws from after me-saww’’.[60]
30- وَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص لَيَخْتَلِجَنَّ قَوْمٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِي دُونِي وَ أَنَا عَلَى الْحَوْضِ فَيُؤْخَذُ بِهِمْ ذَاتَ الشِّمَالِ فَأُنَادِي يَا رَبِّ أُصَيْحَابِي أُصَيْحَابِي فَيُقَالُ إِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي مَا أَحْدَثُوا بَعْدَكَ
And the Prophet-saww said: ‘A group of my-saww companions would try to mingle with me-saww while I-saww will be at the Fountain, but they would be seized to the left and I-saww will call out: ‘O Lord-azwj! My-saww companions! My-saww companions!’ He-azwj will Say: ‘Don’t you-saww know what they innovated after you-saww!”[61]

‘I heard Rasool-Allah-saww saying: ‘Allah-azwj Gave me-saww five (things) and Gave Ali-asws five (things) – He-azwj Gave me-saww the extraction of the speech, and Gave Ali-asws the extraction of the knowledge, and He-azwj Made me-saww a Prophet-saww and Made Ali-asws a successor-asws, and He-azwj Gave me-saww Al-Kausar and Gave him-asws Al-Salsabeel, and He-azwj Gave me the Revelation and Gave him-asws the Inspiration, and Ascended me-saww to Him-azwj and Opened for him-asws the gateways of sky and the Veils until he-asws looked at me-saww and I-saww looked at him-asws’ – the Hadeeth’.[62]

‘Al-Amaali’ of Al-Sadouq – My father, from Sa’ad, from Al Barqy, from Al Qasim, from his grandfather,
‘From Al-Sadiq-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws, from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘O Ali-asws! You-asws and your-asws Shias would be at the Fountain, quenching the ones you-asws love and preventing the ones you dislike, and you will be safe on the Day of the great panic, in the shade of the Throne. The people would panic, and you all will not be panicking, and the people would grieve, and you all will not be grieving.

Regarding you all (Shias), this Verse was Revealed: Surely those for whom the good has preceded from Us, they would be remote from it [21:101]. Regarding you was Revealed: The great terror shall not grieve them, and the Angels would meet them: ‘This is your Day which you were Promised’ [21:103]’ – the Hadeeth’.

A’alam Al Deen’ of Al Daylami, from the book of Al-Husayn Bin Saeed, by his chain from Abu Ayoub Al Ansary who said,
‘I was in the presence of Rasool-Allah-saww and he-saww had been asked about the Fountain, so he-saww said: ‘But, since you have asked me-saww about the Fountain, I-saww shall inform you about it. Allah-azwj the Exalted Honoured me-saww with it besides the Prophets-as, and its (size) is what is between Eilat (in Israel) up to Sana’a (in Yemen). Two tributaries of water flow into it. Its water is whiter than the milk, and sweeter than the honey, its two banks is of strong musk, its pebbles are of gems and rubies.

There is a Stipulated condition from my-saww Lord-azwj that I-saww shall not let anyone reach it except one of the correct intentions, and the pure of heart, those who are giving what is upon them in the privacy, and are not taking what is for them during the difficulties, the submitter to my-saww successor-asws from after me-saww, impeding (driving away) the one who isn’t from his-asws Shias just as the man tends to impede the scabby camel from his own camels’’.[64]
باب 21 الشفاعة
CHAPTER 21 – THE INTERCESSION
الآيات البقرة وَ اتَّقُوا يَوْماً لا تَجْزِي نَفْسٌ عَنْ نَفْسٍ شَيْئاً وَ لا يُقْبَلُ مِنْها شَفاعَةٌ وَ لا يُؤْخَذُ مِنْها عَدْلٌ وَ لا هُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ
The Verses – (Surah) Al Baqarah: And fear a Day no soul would be recompensed anything from a soul, nor would intercession be Accepted from it, nor would a compensation be Taken from it, nor would they be helping (each other) [2:48]
و قال تعالى وَ اتَّقُوا يَوْماً لا تَجْزِي نَفْسٌ عَنْ نَفْسٍ شَيْئاً وَ لا يُقْبَلُ مِنْها عَدْلٌ وَ لا تَنْفَعُها شَفاعَةٌ وَ لا هُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ
And the Exalted Said: And fear a Day no soul would be sufficed by anything from a soul, nor would compensation be Accepted from it, nor would intercession benefit it, nor would they be helping (each other) [2:123]
و قال تعالى يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَنْفِقُوا مِمَّا رَزَقْناكُمْ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ يَوْمٌ لا بَيْعٌ فِيهِ وَ لا خُلَّةٌ وَ لا شَفاعَةٌ
And the Exalted Said: O you those who believe! Spend out of what We have Given you, before the Day comes in which there would neither be any bargaining, nor any friendship nor intercession [2:254]
و قال مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ
And Said: who is that who can intercede in His Presence except by His Permission? [2:255]
الإسراء عَسى أَنْ يَبْعَثَكَ رَبُّكَ مَقاماً مَحْمُوداً
(Surah) Al Sara’a: perhaps your Lord will Raise you to a Praiseworthy position [17:79]
مريم لا يَمْلِكُونَ الشَّفاعَةَ إِلَّا مَنِ اتَّخَذَ عِنْدَ الرَّحْمنِ عَهْداً
(Surah) Maryam-as: They shall not be controlling the intercession, except one who takes a Pact with the Beneficent [19:87]
طه يَوْمَئِذٍ لا تَنْفَعُ الشَّفاعَةُ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ الرَّحْمنُ وَ رَضِيَ لَهُ قَوْلًا
(Surah) Ta Ha: On that Day the Intercession will not benefit except one for whom the Beneficent Permits and is Pleased with his word [20:109]
الأنبياء وَ قالُوا اتَّخَذَ الرَّحْمنُ وَلَداً سُبْحانَهُ بَلْ عِبادٌ مُكْرَمُونَ
(Surah) Al Anbiya: And they are saying, ‘The Beneficent has Taken a son!’ Glorious is He! But, they (Prophets) are honoured servants [21:26]
لا يَسْبِقُونَهُ بِالْقَوْلِ وَ هُمْ بِأَمْرِهِ يَعْمَلُونَ
They do not precede Him in speech and they are only acting by His Command [21:27]
يَعْلَمُ ما بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَ ما خَلْفَهُمْ وَ لا يَشْفَعُونَ إِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضى وَ هُمْ مِنْ خَشْيَتِهِ مُشْفِقُونَ
He Knows what is in front of them and what is behind them, and they will not be interceding except for the one He Approves of, and they are trembling from His fear [21:28]
الشعراء فَما لَنا مِنْ شافِعِينَ وَ لا صَدِيقٍ حَمِيمٍ
(Surah) Al Shuara: So, there is none for us from the intercessors [26:100] Nor an intimate friend [26:101]
سبأ وَ لا تَنْفَعُ الشَّفاعَةُ عِنْدَهُ إِلَّا لِمَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ حَتَّى إِذا فُزِّعَ عَنْ قُلُوبِهِمْ قالُوا ما ذا قالَ رَبُّكُمْ قالُوا الْحَقَّ وَ هُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْكَبِيرُ
(Surah) Saba: And the intercession will not benefit in His Presence except the one He Permits for, until when there is panic from their hearts, they say, ‘What is that which your Lord Said?’ They say: ‘The Truth. And He is the Exalted, the Great’ [34:23]
الدخان إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْفَصْلِ مِيقاتُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
(Surah) Al Dukhan: Surely, the Day of Decision is the appointment of theirs, altogether [44:40]
يَوْمَ لا يُغْنِي مَوْلًى عَنْ مَوْلًى شَيْئاً وَ لا هُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ رَحِمَ اللَّهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ النجم
A Day, neither will a friend avail anything from a friend, nor would they be helped [44:41] Except one Allah Mercies. Surely He is the Mighty, the Merciful [44:42]
وَ كَمْ مِنْ مَلَكٍ فِي السَّماواتِ لا تُغْنِي شَفاعَتُهُمْ شَيْئاً إِلَّا مِنْ بَعْدِ أَنْ يَأْذَنَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ يَشاءُ وَ يَرْضى
(Surah) Al Najm: And how many an Angel is there in the skies whose intercession does not avail anything except from after Allah Permits it for one He so Desires and is Pleased (with) [53:26]
المدثر فَما تَنْفَعُهُمْ شَفاعَةُ الشَّافِعِينَ
(Surah) Muddasar: So the intercession of intercessors will not benefit them [74:48]
النبأ يَوْمَ يَقُومُ الرُّوحُ وَ الْمَلائِكَةُ صَفًّا لا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ الرَّحْمنُ وَ قالَ صَواباً
(Surah) Al Naba: A Day on which the Spirit and the Angels would be standing in rows, not speaking except one the Beneficent Permits for him, and speaks the correct thing [78:38]
Note –
وَ هُوَ قَوْلُهُ ع ادَّخَرْتُ شَفَاعَتِي لِأَهْلِ الْكَبَائِرِ مِنْ أُمَّتِي
And it is his-saww word: ‘My intercession has been stored for the peope of my-saww community committing major sins’.
وَ مَا جَاءَ فِي رِوَايَاتِ أَصْحَابِنَا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ مَرْفُوعاً عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص أَنَّهُ قَالَ: إِنِّي أَشْفَعُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَأُشَفَّعُ وَ يَشْفَعُ عَلِيٌّ فَيُشَفَّعُ وَ يَشْفَعُ أَهْلُ بَيْتِي فَيُشَفَّعُونَ وَ إِنَّ أَدْنَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ شَفَاعَةً لَيَشْفَعُ فِي أَرْبَعِينَ مِنْ إِخْوَانِهِ كُلٌّ قَدِ اسْتَوْجَبُوا النَّارَ
And what has come in the reports by our companions, may Allah-asws be Pleased with them, raising it from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘I-saww shall be sought for intercession on the Day of Qiyamah so I-saww will intercede, and Ali-asws will be sought for intercession so he-asws will intercede, and People-asws of my Household will be sought for intercession so they-asws will be interceding, and the lowest of the Momineen will be sought for intercession so he will intercede regarding forty of his brethren, all having been deserving the Fire’.
حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ لَمْ يُحْسِنْ وَصِيَّتَهُ عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ كَانَ نَقْصاً فِي مُرُوءَتِهِ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ يُوصِي الْمَيِّتُ قَالَ إِذَا حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ وَ اجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ فاطِرَ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ
It is narrated to me by my father, from Ibn Mahboub, from Suleyman Bin Ja’far, from Abu Abdullah-asws, from his father having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘One who does not make good his will at the death it would be a deficiency in his dignity’. It was said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! How should dying one make a will?’ He-saww said: ‘When the expiry presents him and the people gather to him, he should say: ‘O Allah-azwj, Originator of the skies and the earth’.
وَ سَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى أَنْ قَالَ وَ تَصْدِيقُ هَذِهِ الْوَصِيَّةِ فِي سُورَةِ مَرْيَمَ فِي قَوْلِهِ لا يَمْلِكُونَ الشَّفاعَةَ إِلَّا مَنِ اتَّخَذَ عِنْدَ الرَّحْمنِ عَهْداً فَهَذَا عَهْدُ الْمَيِّتِ
And he continued the Hadeeth up to he said: ‘And the verification of this will is in Surah Maryam-as in His Words: They shall not be controlling the intercession, except one who takes a Pact with the Beneficent [19:87]. So this is a pact of the dying one’.
وَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص قَالَ: يَقُولُ الرَّجُلُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَيْ رَبِّ عَبْدُكَ فُلَانٌ سَقَانِي شَرْبَةً مِنْ مَاءٍ فِي الدُّنْيَا فَشَفِّعْنِي فِيهِ فَيَقُولُ اذْهَبْ فَأَخْرِجْهُ مِنَ النَّارِ فَيَذْهَبُ فَيَتَجَسَّسُ فِي النَّارِ حَتَّى يُخْرِجَهُ مِنْهَا
And from Al-Hassan, from Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘On the Day of Qiyamah the man from the people of Paradise will be saying, ‘Yes, Lord-azwj! Your so and so servant had quenched me a drink of water in the world, so Intercede for me regarding him!’ He-azwj will Say: “Go and extract him from the Fire!” He will go and search in the Fire until he extracts him from it’.
وَ قَالَ ص إِنَّ مِنْ أُمَّتِي مَنْ سَيُدْخِلُ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ بِشَفَاعَتِهِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مُضَرَ
And he said: ‘The ones from my-saww community there is one whom Allah-azwj will be Admitting into Paradise due his intercession will be more than (the tribe of) Muzar’.

‘Al Khisaal’ – Abu Al-Hassan Tahir Bin Muhammad Bin Yunus, from Muhammad Bin Usman Al Harqy, from Ahmad Ibn Najdah, from Abu Bashr Khatan Al Muqry, from Motamar Bin Suleyman, from Anas Bin Malik who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘For every Prophet-as there is a supplication he-as has supplicated with, and had questions (needs) to ask, and I-saww have saved my-saww supplication for my-saww intercession of my-saww community on the Day of Qiyamah’’.[65]
2- ل، الخصال أَبِي عَنِ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ عَنْ هَارُونَ عَنِ ابْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ آبَائِهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص ثَلَاثَةٌ يَشْفَعُونَ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَيُشَفَّعُونَ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ ثُمَّ الْعُلَمَاءُ ثُمَّ الشُّهَدَاءُ
‘Al Khisaal’ – My father, from Al Humeyri, from Haroun, from Ibn Sadaqa,
‘From Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws, from Ali-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Three will seek (permission for) intercession to Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, and they would be interceding – The Prophet-saww, then the scholars, then the martyrs’’.[66]
3- ل، الخصال الْأَرْبَعُمِائَةِ، قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع لَا تُعَنُّونَا فِي الطَّلَبِ وَ الشَّفَاعَةِ لَكُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فِيمَا قَدَّمْتُمْ
‘Al Khisaal’ – The Four Hundred (Hadeeth) –
‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws said: ‘Do not exhaust us-asws regarding the seeking and the intercession for you on the Day of Qiyamah regarding what you sent ahead’.
وَ قَالَ ع لَنَا شَفَاعَةٌ وَ لِأَهْلِ مَوَدَّتِنَا شَفَاعَةٌ
And he-asws said: ‘For us-asws there is intercession, and for the people of our-asws cordiality there is intercession’’.[67]

‘Uyoun Akhbar Al-Reza-asws – My father, from Sa’ad, from Ibrahim Bin Hashim, from Ali Bin Ma’bad, from Al-Husayn Bin Khalid,
‘From Al-Reza-asws, from his-asws father-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws, from Amir Al-Momineen-asws, having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘One who does not believe in my-saww Fountain, so Allah-azwj will not let him reach my-saww Fountain, and one who does not believe in my-saww intercession, so Allah-azwj will not let him attain my-saww intercession’.

Then he-saww said: ‘But rather, my-saww intercession is for the perpetrators of the major sins from my-saww community. As for the good doers, there is no way against them’.
قَالَ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ فَقُلْتُ لِلرِّضَا ع يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَمَا مَعْنَى قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ لا يَشْفَعُونَ إِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضى قَالَ لَا يَشْفَعُونَ إِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضَى اللَّهُ دِينَهُ
Al-Hassan Bin Khalid said, ‘I said to Al-Reza-asws, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! What is the meaning of the Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: and they will not be interceding except for the one He Approves of [21:28]?’ He-asws said: ‘They-asws will not be interceding except for one whose Religion Allah-azwj is Pleased with’’.[68]
5- ن، عيون أخبار الرضا عليه السلام قَالَ مُصَنِّفُ هَذَا الْكِتَابِ الْمُؤْمِنُ هُوَ الَّذِي تَسُرُّهُ حَسَنَتُهُ وَ تَسُوؤُهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ لِقَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ ص مَنْ سَرَّتْهُ حَسَنَتُهُ وَ سَاءَتْهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ فَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ
The author of this book says, ‘The Momin is the one whose good deeds cheer him and his evil deeds distress him, as per the words of the Prophet-saww: ‘One whose good deeds cheer him and his evil deeds distress him, he is a Momin’.
وَ مَتَى سَاءَتْهُ سَيِّئَةٌ نَدِمَ عَلَيْهَا وَ النَّدَمُ تَوْبَةٌ وَ التَّائِبُ مُسْتَحِقٌّ لِلشَّفَاعَةِ وَ الْغُفْرَانِ وَ مَنْ لَمْ تَسُؤْهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ فَلَيْسَ بِمُؤْمِنٍ وَ إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ مُؤْمِناً لَمْ يَسْتَحِقَّ الشَّفَاعَةَ لِأَنَّ اللَّهَ غَيْرُ مُرْتَضٍ لِدِينِهِ
And when his evil deeds distress him, he would regret these, and the regret is the repentance, and the repentant is deserving of the intercession and the Forgiveness. And one who evil deeds do not distress him, then he isn’t a Momin, and when he does not happen to be a Momin, he would not be deserving of the intercession, because Allah-azwj would not be Pleased with his Religion’’.[69] (Although this is not a Hadeeth and is only a comment of Majlisi, it does contain a Hadeeth)

He-asws said: ‘On the Day of Qiyamah the people would be choking by the sweat and they would say, ‘Let us go to Adam-as (in the Presence of his-as Lord-azwj)’. They will come to Adam-as and say, ‘Intercede for us with your-as Lord-azwj’. He-as would say: ‘There is a sin for me-as and a mistake, so upon you is to be with Noah-as’.
فَيَرُدُّهُمْ إِلَى مَنْ يَلِيهِ وَ يَرُدُّهُمْ كُلُّ نَبِيٍّ إِلَى مَنْ يَلِيهِ حَتَّى يَنْتَهُونَ إِلَى عِيسَى فَيَقُولُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِمُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ وَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ فَيَعْرِضُونَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ عَلَيْهِ وَ يَسْأَلُونَهُ
The will come to Noah-as, but he-as will refer the one (Prophet-as) who followed him-as. And every Prophet-as will (refer) to the one who followed him-as until they would end up to Isa-as, and he-as will say: ‘Upon you is to be with Muhammad-saww Rasool-Allah-saww – may Salawat be upon him-saww and upon the entirety of the Prophets-as – so they will display themselves unto him-as and they would be asking him-saww.

He-saww will be saying: ‘Let us go’. He-saww would go with them to the door of Paradise, and he-saww will face the Door of the beneficent and fall down in Sajdah. He-saww will remain (like that) for as long as Allah-azwj so Desires. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic will Say: “Raise your-saww head and intercede, you-saww will be interceded for, and ask, you-saww will be Given, and that is His-azwj Word: perhaps your Lord will Raise you to a Praiseworthy position [17:79].[71]

‘A slave of the wife of Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws called Abu Ayman, came to Abu Ja’far-asws and he said, ‘O Abu Ja’far-asws! The people are bothering and saying, ‘Intercession of Muhammad-saww! Intercession of Muhammad-saww!’
فَغَضِبَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع حَتَّى تَرَبَّدَ وَجْهُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَيْحَكَ يَا أَبَا أَيْمَنَ أَ غَرَّكَ أَنْ عَفَّ بَطْنُكَ وَ فَرْجُكَ أَمَا لَوْ قَدْ رَأَيْتَ أَفْزَاعَ الْقِيَامَةِ لَقَدِ احْتَجْتَ إِلَى شَفَاعَةِ مُحَمَّدٍ ص وَيْلَكَ فَهَلْ يَشْفَعُ إِلَّا لِمَنْ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ النَّارُ
Abu Ja’far-asws was angered until his-asws face changed (colour), then said: ‘Woe be unto you-asws, O Abu Ayman! Does it bother you to keep chaste your belly and your private parts? But, if you could see the panic on the Day of Qiyamah, how needy you will be for the intercession of Muhammad-saww. Woe be unto you! Is intercession except for the one the Fire has been Obligated upon?’
ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ إِلَّا وَ هُوَ مُحْتَاجٌ إِلَى شَفَاعَةِ مُحَمَّدٍ ص يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ
Then he-asws said: ‘There is no one from the former ones and the latter ones except he would be needy to the intercession of Muhammad-saww on the Day of Qiyamah’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع إِنَّ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص الشَّفَاعَةَ فِي أُمَّتِهِ وَ لَنَا شَفَاعَةً فِي شِيعَتِنَا وَ لِشِيعَتِنَا شَفَاعَةً فِي أَهَالِيهِمْ
Then Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘For Rasool-Allah-saww is the interceding regarding his-saww community, and for us is the interceding regarding our-asws Shias, and for our-asws Shias there is interceding regarding their families’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ وَ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ لَيَشْفَعُ فِي مِثْلِ رَبِيعَةَ وَ مُضَرَ وَ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ لَيَشْفَعُ حَتَّى لِخَادِمِهِ وَ يَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ حَقَّ خِدْمَتِي كَانَ يَقِينِي الْحَرَّ وَ الْبَرْدَ
The Momin will intercede regarding the likes of (the tribes of) Rabie and Muzar, and that the Momin will intercede even for his servants, and he would be saying, ‘O Lord-azwj! A right of my servant who was saving me from the heat and the cold’’.[79]

‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘I-saww have been Given five no one before me has been Given – The earth has been Made to be a Masjid (place of Sajdah) for me-saww and a cleansing (Tayammum), and Help (from Allah-azwj) with the awe (in the hearts of the enemies), and the war booties have been Made Permissible for me-saww, and I-saww have been Given the summary of the speech, and I-saww have been Given the intercession’’.[80]

‘Al Khisaal’ – Majaylawiya, from his uncle, from Al Barqy, from Ali Bin Al-Husayn Al Raqy, from Abdullah Bin Jabalah, from Al-Hassan Bin Abdullah, from his forefathers,
‘From his grandfather-asws Al-Hassan-asws Bin Ali-asws in a lengthy Hadeeth that the Prophet-saww said in answer to a number of the Jews who had asked him about certain issues: ‘And as for my-saww intercession, so it would be regarding the perpetrators of the major sins, apart from the people of Shirk and the injustice’’.[81]

‘Al Khisaal’ – Al Qatan, from Ibn Zakariyya, from Ibn Habeeb, from Muhammad Bin Abdullah, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Aban, from Muhammad Bin Al Fazl Al Zarqy,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws, from his-asws father-asws, from his-asws grandfather-asws, from Ali-asws having said: ‘For Paradise there are eight doors – a door the Prophets-as and the Truthful-asws would be entering from, and a door the martyrs and the righteous would be entering from, and five doors from which our-asws Shias and ones who love us-asws would be entering from.
فَلَا أَزَالُ وَاقِفاً عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ أَدْعُو وَ أَقُولُ رَبِّ سَلِّمْ شِيعَتِي وَ مُحِبِّي وَ أَنْصَارِي وَ مَنْ تَوَالانِي فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا فَإِذَا النِّدَاءُ مِنْ بُطْنَانِ الْعَرْشِ قَدْ أُجِيبَتْ دَعْوَتُكَ وَ شُفِّعْتَ فِي شِيعَتِكَ
I-saww will not cease to pause upon the Bridge calling and saying: ‘Lord-azwj! Save my-saww Shias and ones who love me-saww and my-saww helpers, and ones who befriended me-saww in the house of the world’. There would be a Call from the interior of the Throne: “I-azwj have Answered your-saww supplication, and Interceded regarding your-saww Shias!”
وَ يَشْفَعُ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ مِنْ شِيعَتِي وَ مَنْ تَوَلَّانِي وَ نَصَرَنِي وَ حَارَبَ مَنْ حَارَبَنِي بِفِعْلٍ أَوْ قَوْلٍ فِي سَبْعِينَ أَلْفاً مِنْ جِيرَانِهِ وَ أَقْرِبَائِهِ
And He-azwj will intercede for every man from my-asws Shias, and ones who befriended me-asws and helped me-asws and battled the ones who battled against me-asws, by action or words, regarding seventy thousand from his neighbours and his relatives.
وَ بَابٌ يَدْخُلُ مِنْهُ سَائِرُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مِمَّنْ يَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِقْدَارُ ذَرَّةٍ مِنْ بُغْضِنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ
And there is a door the rest of the Muslims would be entering from, from the ones who testify that, ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj’, and there does not happen to be in his heart a measurement of a particle of our-asws hatred, the People-asws of the Household’’.[82]

I-saww shall be saying: ‘O Lord-azwj, Paradise!’ And I-saww will settle them from it wherever I-saww so desire to, and that is the praiseworthy place (Al-Maqam Al-Mahmoud) which I-saww had been Promised with’’.[83]

‘We went to Abu Nawas Al-Hassan Bin Hany to console him during his illness in which he died. Isa Ibn Musa Al-Hashimy said to him, ‘O Abu Ali! You are in the last day from the days of the world, and the first day from the Hereafter, and between you and Allah-azwj there are evil traits, therefore repent to Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic’.

Abu Nawas said, ‘Support me’. When he was sitting upright, he said, ‘Are you scaring me with Allah-azwj? And Hamad Bin Salmah narrated to me, from Sabit Al-Banany, from Anas Bin Malik who said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘For every Prophet-saww there is intercession and I-saww have kept my-saww intercession for the perpetrators of the major sins from my-saww community on the Day of Qiyamah’.

The ones legally punished are mischief-makers, neither Momins nor Kafirs, nor will they be entering the Fire and coming out from it one day, and the intercession is allowed for them, and for the weak ones (of understanding), when Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic is Pleased with their Religion’ – the Hadeeth’.[85]

‘Al Mahasin’ – Ibn Mahboub, from Aban, from Asad Bin Ismail, from Jabir Bin Yazeed who said,
‘Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘O Jabir! Do not seek support of our-asws enemies, neither seek his food nor ask him for a drink of water, for he will be passing by the Momin to go to the Fire and he would say, ‘O Momin! Didn’t I do such and such with you?’ He will be embarrassed from him, and save him from the Fire.
فَإِنَّمَا سُمِّيَ الْمُؤْمِنُ مُؤْمِناً لِأَنَّهُ يُؤْمِنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَيُؤْمِنُ فَيُجِيزُ أَمَانَهُ
But rather, the Momin has been named as a ‘Momin’ because he believes in Allah-azwj and he believes His-azwj Trustees-asws’’.[99]

‘Regarding the Words of the Exalted: So, the intercession of intercessors will not benefit them [74:48], he said, ‘Meaning the Kafirs of Makkah will not benefit by the intercession of the interceders’.

Then he said, ‘The first one to intercede on the Day of Qiyamah regarding his community would be Rasool-Allah-saww, and the first one to intercede regarding his family members and his children would be Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and the first one to intercede regarding the Muslims of Rome would be Saheyb, and the first one to intercede regarding the Momins of Ethiopia would be Bilal’’.[100] (P.S. – This is not a Hadeeth)

Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘and give glad tidings to those who believe that, for them would be a ‘true footing’ in the Presence of their Lord. [10:2]. He-asws said: ‘Wilayah of Amir Al-Momineen-asws’. And it was said, ‘for them would be a ‘true footing’ [10:2], he-asws said: ‘Intercession of the Prophet-saww, And the one who came with the truth [39:33] is intercession of Ali-asws, they are the truthful [57:19], intercession of the Imams-asws’’.[105]

44- م، تفسير الإمام عليه السلام قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع اللَّهُ رَحِيمٌ بِعِبَادِهِ وَ مِنْ رَحْمَتِهِ أَنَّهُ خَلَقَ مِائَةَ رَحْمَةٍ جَعَلَ مِنْهَا رَحْمَةً وَاحِدَةً فِي الْخَلْقِ كُلِّهِمْ فَبِهَا يَتَرَاحَمُ النَّاسُ وَ تَرْحَمُ الْوَالِدَةُ وَلَدَهَا وَ تَحَنَّنُ الْأُمَّهَاتُ مِنَ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ عَلَى أَوْلَادِهَا
‘Tafseer of the Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws) – Amir Al-Momineen-asws said: ‘Allah-azwj is Merciful with His-azwj servants, and from His-azwj Mercy is that He-azwj Created one hundred Mercies, Making one Mercy from these regarding all of the creatures. By it, He-azwj Mercies the people, and the mother mercies her child, and the mothers from the animals are tame upon their children.
فَإِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ أَضَافَ هَذِهِ الرَّحْمَةَ الْوَاحِدَةَ إِلَى تِسْعٍ وَ تِسْعِينَ رَحْمَةً فَيَرْحَمُ بِهَا أُمَّةَ مُحَمَّدٍ ثُمَّ يُشَفِّعُهُمْ فِيمَنْ يُحِبُّونَ لَهُ الشَّفَاعَةَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمِلَّةِ حَتَّى إِنَّ الْوَاحِدَ لَيَجِيءُ إِلَى مُؤْمِنٍ مِنَ الشِّيعَةِ فَيَقُولُ اشْفَعْ لِي فَيَقُولُ وَ أَيُّ حَقٍّ لَكَ عَلَيَّ فَيَقُولُ سَقَيْتُكَ يَوْماً مَاءً فَيَذْكُرُ ذَلِكَ فَيَشْفَعُ لَهُ فَيُشَفَّعُ فِيهِ
When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, this one Mercy would be multiplied to ninety-nine Mercies, and by it He-azwj will Mercy the community of Muhammad-saww, then He-azwj will Permit their intercession regarding the ones they love, for him would be the intercession from the people of the nation until the one would be coming to a Momin from the Shias and he will be saying, ‘intercede for me’, and he will be saying, ‘And which right is there for you upon me?’ He would say, ‘I quenched you some water’. He would remember that and intercede for him, and there will be intercession regarding him.
وَ يَجِيئُهُ آخَرُ فَيَقُولُ إِنَّ لِي عَلَيْكَ حَقّاً فَاشْفَعْ لِي فَيَقُولُ وَ مَا حَقُّكَ عَلَيَّ فَيَقُولُ اسْتَظْلَلْتَ بِظِلِّ جِدَارِي سَاعَةً فِي يَوْمٍ حَارٍّ فَيَشْفَعُ لَهُ فَيُشَفَّعُ فِيهِ وَ لَا يَزَالُ يَشْفَعُ حَتَّى يَشْفَعَ فِي جِيرَانِهِ وَ خُلَطَائِهِ وَ مَعَارِفِهِ فَإِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ أَكْرَمُ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِمَّا تَظُنُّونَ
And another one will come and say, ‘There is a right for me upon you, so intercede for me’. He will say, ‘And what is your right upon me?’ He will say, ‘You shaded yourself by the shade of my wall for a while during a hot day’. He would intercede for him and there will be intercession regarding him, and he will not cease interceding until he intercedes regarding his neighbour, and his mingling ones, and his known ones, for the Momin is more honourable unto Allah-azwj than what you think’’.[107]
45- م، تفسير الإمام عليه السلام قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ اتَّقُوا يَوْماً لا تَجْزِي نَفْسٌ عَنْ نَفْسٍ شَيْئاً لَا يَدْفَعُ عَنْهَا عَذَاباً قَدِ اسْتَحَقَّتْهُ عِنْدَ النَّزْعِ وَ لا يُقْبَلُ مِنْها شَفاعَةٌ يَشْفَعُ لَهَا بِتَأْخِيرِ الْمَوْتِ عَنْهَا وَ لا يُؤْخَذُ مِنْها عَدْلٌ لَا يُقْبَلُ فِدَاءٌ مَكَانَهُ يُمَاتُ وَ يُتْرَكُ هُوَ
‘Tafseer of the Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws) – Allah-azwj the Mighty and Majestic Says: [2:48] And fear a Day when one soul shall not avail another in the least – Will not be able to dispel the punishment which he deserves at the time of death neither shall intercession on its behalf be Accepted – Interceding for the delaying the time of his nor shall any compensation be Taken from it [2:48] – No ransom or replacement will be accepted in his place to die, and that he himself should be left alone’.- No ransom or replacement will be accepted in his place to die, and that he himself should be left alone.
قَالَ الصَّادِقُ ع وَ هَذَا يَوْمُ الْمَوْتِ فَإِنَّ الشَّفَاعَةَ وَ الْفِدَاءَ لَا يُغْنِي فِيهِ [عَنْهُ] فَأَمَّا فِي يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَإِنَّا وَ أَهْلَنَا نَجْزِي عَنْ شِيعَتِنَا كُلَّ جَزَاءٍ لَيَكُونَنَّ عَلَى الْأَعْرَافِ بَيْنَ الْجَنَّةِ مُحَمَّدٌ وَ عَلِيٌّ وَ فَاطِمَةُ وَ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع وَ الطَّيِّبُونَ مِنْ آلِهِمْ
Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘And this – the day (in the above Verse) – is the day of death, so the intercession and the substitution (from not dying) would not be availed from. But, as for during the Day of Qiyamah, so we-asws and our-asws family members, we-asws would recompense our-asws Shias with every recompense. We-asws would certainly be upon the Heights (A’raaf) between Paradise and the Fire – Muhammad-saww, and Ali-asws, and (Syeda) Fatima-asws and Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws, and the goodly ones-asws from their-asws Progeny-asws.
فَنَرَى بَعْضَ شِيعَتِنَا فِي تِلْكَ الْعَرَصَاتِ فَمَنْ كَانَ مِنْهُمْ مُقَصِّراً فِي بَعْضِ شَدَائِدِهَا فَنَبْعَثُ عَلَيْهِمْ خِيَارَ شِيعَتِنَا كَسَلْمَانَ وَ الْمِقْدَادِ وَ أَبِي ذَرٍّ وَ عَمَّارٍ وَ نُظَرَائِهِمْ فِي الْعَصْرِ الَّذِي يَلِيهِمْ وَ فِي كُلِّ عَصْرٍ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيَنْقُضُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ كَالْبُزَاةِ وَ الصُّقُورِ وَ يَتَنَاوَلُونَهُمْ كَمَا يَتَنَاوَلُ الْبُزَاةُ وَ الصُّقُورُ صَيْدَهَا فَيَزُفُّونَهُمْ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ زَفّاً
We-asws would see one of our-asws Shias in those plains – from the ones who were derogators from them – in one of its difficulties, so we-asws would send the best of our-asws Shias, like Salman-ra, and Al-Miqdad-ra, and Abu Zarr-ra, and Ammar-ra, and their peers in the time period which followed them-ra, then in every time period up to the Day of Qiyamah. So they-ra would be swooping upon them like the buzzards and the hawks, and they would be snatching them just as the buzzard and the hawk snatches its prey, and they-ra would be bringing them to Paradise hurriedly.
وَ إِنَّا لَنَبْعَثُ عَلَى آخَرِينَ مِنْ مُحِبِّينَا مِنْ خِيَارِ شِيعَتِنَا كَالْحَمَامِ فَيَلْتَقِطُونَهُمْ مِنَ الْعَرَصَاتِ كَمَا يَلْتَقِطُ الطَّيْرُ الْحَبَّ وَ يَنْقُلُونَهُمْ إِلَى الْجِنَانِ بِحَضْرَتِنَا
And we-asws would certainly send upon the others from those that love us-asws, from the best of our-asws Shias, like the doves, so they would be cutting them out from the plains just as the bird cuts out the seed, and they would be transferring them to the Gardens in our-asws Presence.
وَ سَيُؤْتَى بِالْوَاحِدِ مِنْ مُقَصِّرِي شِيعَتِنَا فِي أَعْمَالِهِ بَعْدَ أَنْ صَانَ الْوَلَايَةَ وَ التَّقِيَّةَ وَ حُقُوقَ إِخْوَانِهِ وَ يُوقَفُ بِإِزَائِهِ مَا بَيْنَ مِائَةٍ وَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِلَى مِائَةِ أَلْفٍ مِنَ النُّصَّابِ فَيُقَالُ لَهُ هَؤُلَاءِ فِدَاؤُكَ مِنَ النَّارِ فَيَدْخُلُ هَؤُلَاءِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ الْجَنَّةَ وَ أُولَئِكَ النُّصَّابُ النَّارَ
And they would be coming with one from our-asws Shias deficient in his deeds, after his having earned the Wilayah, and (performed) the dissimulation, and (fulfilled) the rights of his brethren, and he would be paused in front of what is between one hundred, and more than that up to one hundred thousand from the Nasibis (Hostile ones), and it would be said to him: ‘They are your expiation from the Fire (as replacements). Thus, these Momineen would be entering Paradise, and those Nasibis (into the) Fire.
وَ ذَلِكَ مَا قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى رُبَما يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يَعْنِي بِالْوَلَايَةِ لَوْ كانُوا مُسْلِمِينَ فِي الدُّنْيَا مُنْقَادِينَ لِلْإِمَامَةِ لِيُجْعَلَ مُخَالِفُوهُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ فِدَاءَهُمْ
And that is what Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said: Sometimes they wish, those who disbelieve – meaning in the Wilayah – if only they had been submissive [15:2] – in the world as being led to the Imamate, in order for their adversaries to be their expiation from the Fire.[108]

‘I was in the presence of Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws, one night, Mufazzal Bin Umar and I, there wasn’t anyone else with him apart from us, and Mufazzal Bin Al-Ju’fy said to him-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! Narrate a Hadeeth to us, we can be joyful with’.

He-asws said: ‘Yes. When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, Allah-azwj will Gather the creatures in one plain, bare-feet, bare, dirty’. I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! What is the (meaning of) dirty?’ He-asws said: ‘Just as they had been created the first time (at birth). They will be pausing until the sweat chokes them, and they would be saying, ‘If only Allah-azwj would Decide between us and even if it is to the Fire’ – viewing that in the Fire there is rest compared to what there are in.
ثُمَّ يَأْتُونَ آدَمَ فَيَقُولُونَ أَنْتَ أَبُونَا وَ أَنْتَ نَبِيٌّ فَاسْأَلْ رَبَّكَ يَحْكُمْ بَيْنَنَا وَ لَوْ إِلَى النَّارِ فَيَقُولُ آدَمُ لَسْتُ بِصَاحِبِكُمْ خَلَقَنِي رَبِّي بِيَدِهِ وَ حَمَلَنِي عَلَى عَرْشِهِ وَ أَسْجَدَ لِي مَلَائِكَتَهُ ثُمَّ أَمَرَنِي فَعَصَيْتُهُ
Then they will come to Adam-as and say, ‘You-as are our father-as, and you-as are a Prophet-as, so ask your-as Lord-azwj to Decide between us, and even if it is to the Fire’. Adam-as would say: ‘I-as am not your master. My-as Lord-azwj Created me-as by His-azwj Hands, and Carried me-as upon His-azwj Throne, and His-azwj Angels prostrated to me-as. Then He-azwj Commanded me-as and I-as disobeyed Him-azwj.
وَ لَكِنِّي أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى ابْنِيَ الصِّدِّيقِ الَّذِي مَكَثَ فِي قَوْمِهِ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ إِلَّا خَمْسِينَ عَاماً يَدْعُوهُمْ كُلَّمَا كَذَّبُوا اشْتَدَّ تَصْدِيقُهُ (نوح)
But, I-as point you all to my-as sincere son-as who remained among his-as people for a thousand years less fifty years (950 years), calling them. Every time they belied him-as, his-as sincerity intensified (Noah-as)’’.
قَالَ فَيَأْتُونَ نُوحاً فَيَقُولُونَ سَلْ رَبَّكَ يَحْكُمْ بَيْنَنَا وَ لَوْ إِلَى النَّارِ قَالَ فَيَقُولُ لَسْتُ بِصَاحِبِكُمْ إِنِّي قُلْتُ إِنَّ ابْنِي مِنْ أَهْلِي وَ لَكِنِّي أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى مَنِ اتَّخَذَهُ اللَّهُ خَلِيلًا فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا ايتُوا إِبْرَاهِيمَ
He-asws said: ‘They will come to Noah-as and say, ‘As your-as Lord-azwj to Decide between us, and even if it is to the Fire’. He-as will say: ‘I-as am not your master. I-as said: Surely, my son is from my family [11:45]. But I-as point you all to one whom Allah-azwj Took as a Friend in the house of the world. Turn to Ibrahim-as.
قَالَ فَيَأْتُونَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ فَيَقُولُ لَسْتُ بِصَاحِبِكُمْ إِنِّي قُلْتُ إِنِّي سَقِيمٌ وَ لَكِنِّي أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى مَنْ كَلَّمَ اللَّهُ تَكْلِيماً (موسى)
He-asws said: ‘So, they will come to Ibrahim-as and he-as will say: ‘I-as am not your master. I-as said: ‘‘I feel sick’ [37:89]. But, I-as point you all to one whom Allah-azwj Spoke in a conversation [4:164] (Musa-as)’.
قَالَ فَيَأْتُونَ مُوسَى فَيَقُولُونَ لَهُ فَيَقُولُ لَسْتُ بِصَاحِبِكُمْ إِنِّي قَتَلْتُ نَفْساً وَ لَكِنِّي أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى مَنْ كَانَ يَخْلُقُ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ وَ يُبْرِئُ الْأَكْمَهَ وَ الْأَبْرَصَ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ (عيسى)
He-asws said: ‘They will come to Musa-as and he-as will say to them: ‘I-as am not your master. I-as killed a soul [2:72], but I-as point you all to one who used to create by the Permission of Allah-azwj, and cure the blind and the leper by the Permission of Allah-azwj (Isa-as)’.
فَيَأْتُونَهُ فَيَقُولُ لَسْتُ بِصَاحِبِكُمْ وَ لَكِنِّي أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى مَنْ بَشَّرْتُكُمْ بِهِ فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا (أحمد)
They will come to him-as, and he-as will: ‘I-as am not your master, but I-as point you all to one whom I-as gave you glad tidings with in the house of the world (Ahmad-saww)’’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ وُلِدَ مِنْ آدَمَ إِلَى مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ إِلَّا وَ هُمْ تَحْتَ لِوَاءِ مُحَمَّدٍ
Then Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘There is none from a Prophet-as and a child of Adam-as up to Muhammad-saww except and they would be beneath a flag of Muhammad-saww’.
قَالَ فَيَأْتُونَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ فَيَقُولُونَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ سَلْ رَبَّكَ يَحْكُمْ بَيْنَنَا وَ لَوْ إِلَى النَّارِ قَالَ فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ أَنَا صَاحِبُكُمْ فَيَأْتِي دَارَ الرَّحْمَنِ وَ هِيَ عَدْنٌ وَ إِنَّ بَابَهَا سَعَتُهُ بُعْدُ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَشْرِقِ وَ الْمَغْرِبِ فَيُحَرِّكُ حَلْقَةً مِنَ الْحَلَقِ فَيُقَالُ مَنْ هَذَا وَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ فَيَقُولُ أَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ فَيُقَالُ افْتَحُوا لَهُ
He-asws said: ‘They will come, then say, ‘O Muhammad-saww! Ask your-saww Lord-azwj to Decide between us, and even if it is to the Fire’. He-saww will say: ‘Yes, I-saww am your master’. Then he-saww will come to the Door of the Beneficent, and it is Eden, and the width of its door is what is between the east and the west, and he-saww will move a ring from the rings (door knockers). He-azwj will Say: “Who is this?” – And He-azwj is more Knowing with it. He-saww will say: ‘I-saww am Muhammad-saww’. He-azwj will Say: “Open for him!”
قَالَ فَيُفْتَحُ لِي قَالَ فَإِذَا نَظَرْتُ إِلَى رَبِّي مَجَّدْتُهُ تَمْجِيداً لَمْ يُمَجِّدْهُ أَحَدٌ كَانَ قَبْلِي وَ لَا يُمَجِّدُهُ أَحَدٌ كَانَ بَعْدِي ثُمَّ أَخِرُّ سَاجِداً فَيَقُولُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَ قُلْ يُسْمَعْ قَوْلُكَ وَ اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ وَ سَلْ تُعْطَ
He-saww said: ‘It will be opened for me-saww, and when I-saww look at my-saww Lord-azwj, I-saww shall Glorify Him-azwj with such a Glorification, no one had Glorified Him-azwj before me-saww, nor will anyone be Glorifying Him-azwj after me-saww. Then I-saww shall fall in Sajdah and He-azwj will be Saying: “O Muhammad-saww! Raise your-saww head, and speak, your-saww word will be Heard, and intercede, you-saww will be Interceded for, and ask, you-saww will be Given!”’
قَالَ فَإِذَا رَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي وَ نَظَرْتُ إِلَى رَبِّي مَجَّدْتُهُ تَمْجِيداً أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ أَخِرُّ سَاجِداً فَيَقُولُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَ قُلْ يُسْمَعْ قَوْلُكَ وَ اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ وَ سَلْ تُعْطَ
He-saww said: ‘When I-saww raise my-saww head and look at my-saww Lord-azwj, I-saww shall Glorify Him-azwj with a Glorification better than the first, then I-saww shall fall in Sajdah, and He-azwj will Say: “Raise your-saww head and speak, your-saww word will be Heard, and intercede, you-saww will be Interceded for, and ask, you-saww will be Given!”
فَإِذَا رَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي وَ نَظَرْتُ إِلَى رَبِّي مَجَّدْتُهُ تَمْجِيداً أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِ وَ الثَّانِي ثُمَّ أَخِرُّ سَاجِداً فَيَقُولُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَ قُلْ يُسْمَعْ قَوْلُكَ وَ اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ وَ سَلْ تُعْطَ فَإِذَا رَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي أَقُولُ رَبِّ احْكُمْ بَيْنَ عِبَادِكَ وَ لَوْ إِلَى النَّارِ فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ
When I-saww raise my-saww head and look at my-saww Lord-azwj, I-saww shall Glorify Him-azwj with a Glorification better than the first and the second, then I-saww will fall in Sajdah, and He-azwj will be Saying: “Yes, O Muhammad-saww!”
قَالَ ثُمَّ يُؤْتَى بِنَاقَةٍ مِنْ يَاقُوتٍ أَحْمَرَ وَ زِمَامُهَا زَبَرْجَدٌ أَخْضَرُ حَتَّى أَرْكَبَهَا ثُمَّ آتِي الْمَقَامَ الْمَحْمُودَ حَتَّى أَقْضِيَ عَلَيْهِ وَ هُوَ تَلٌّ مِنْ مِسْكٍ أَذْفَرَ بِحِيَالِ الْعَرْشِ
He-saww said: ‘Then they will come with a she-camel of red ruby, and its reins being of green emeralds until I-saww ride it. Then I-saww will come to the Maqam Al-Mahmoud until I-azwj ascend upon it, and it is a hill of strong musk in front of the Throne’.
ثُمَّ يُدْعَى إِبْرَاهِيمُ فَيُحْمَلُ عَلَى مِثْلِهَا فَيَجِيءُ حَتَّى يَقِفَ عَنْ يَمِينِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص
(He-asws said): ‘Then they will call Ibrahim-as and carry him-as upon the like of it until he-as pauses on the right of Rasool-Allah-saww’.
ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَدَهُ فَضَرَبَ عَلَى كَتِفِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ ثُمَّ تُؤْتَى وَ اللَّهِ بِمِثْلِهَا فَتُحْمَلُ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ تَجِيءُ حَتَّى تَقِفَ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَ أَبِيكَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ
Then Rasool-Allah-saww raised his-saww hand and struck it upon a shoulder of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, then said: ‘Then, by Allah-azwj, you-asws will come with the like of it and be carried upon it, then you-asws will come until you-asws pause between me-saww and your-asws father-as Ibrahim-as.
ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ مُنَادٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ فَيَقُولُ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْخَلَائِقِ أَ لَيْسَ الْعَدْلُ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ أَنْ يُوَلِّيَ كُلَّ قَوْمٍ مَا كَانُوا يَتَوَلَّوْنَ فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا فَيَقُولُونَ بَلَى وَ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ عَدْلٌ غَيْرُهُ
Then there will be a Call from the Beneficent, and he will be saying: “O community of creatures! Isn’t it justice from your Lord-azwj that every people should return to what they were following in the house of the world?” They would say, ‘Yes, and which thing is more just apart from it?’’
قَالَ فَيَقُومُ الشَّيْطَانُ الَّذِي أَضَلَّ فِرْقَةً مِنَ النَّاسِ حَتَّى زَعَمُوا أَنَّ عِيسَى هُوَ اللَّهُ وَ ابْنُ اللَّهِ فَيَتَّبِعُونَهُ إِلَى النَّارِ
He-asws said: ‘The Satan-la would arise, one who had strayed a sect from the people until they claimed that Isa-as, he-as was Allah-azwj and son of Allah-azwj and they will follow him to the Fire.
وَ يَقُومُ الشَّيْطَانُ الَّذِي أَضَلَّ فِرْقَةً مِنَ النَّاسِ حَتَّى زَعَمُوا أَنَّ عُزَيْزاً ابْنُ اللَّهِ حَتَّى يَتَّبِعُونَهُ إِلَى النَّارِ وَ يَقُومُ كُلُّ شَيْطَانٍ أَضَلَّ فِرْقَةً فَيَتَّبِعُونَهُ إِلَى النَّارِ حَتَّى تَبْقَى هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةُ
And the Satan-la would arise, the one who had strayed a sect from the people until they claimed that Uzair-as was son of Allah-azwj, until they follow him to the Fire. Then every Satan-la would arise who had strayed from a sect, and they will follow him to the Fire until there will remain this community.
ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ مُنَادٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ فَيَقُولُ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْخَلَائِقِ أَ لَيْسَ الْعَدْلُ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ أَنْ يُوَلِّيَ كُلَّ فَرِيقٍ مَنْ كَانُوا يَتَوَلَّوْنَ فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا فَيَقُولُونَ بَلَى
Then a Caller will Call from the Presence of Allah-azwj and say: “O community of creatures! Isn’t it justice from your Lord-azwj that every people be returned to whatever they were following in the house of the world?’ They will say, ‘Yes’.
فَيَقُومُ شَيْطَانٌ فَيَتَّبِعُهُ مَنْ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّاهُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ شَيْطَانٌ فَيَتَّبِعُهُ مَنْ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّاهُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ شَيْطَانٌ ثَالِثٌ فَيَتَّبِعُهُ مَنْ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّاهُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ مُعَاوِيَةُ فَيَتَّبِعُهُ مَنْ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّاهُ وَ يَقُومُ عَلِيٌّ فَيَتَّبِعُهُ مَنْ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّاهُ
A Satan-la (from the humans) will arise, and the ones who had followed him would follow him. Then a (another) Satan-la (from the humans) will arise, and the ones who had followed him would follow him. Then a third Satan-la will arise, and the ones who had followed him would follow him. Then Muawiya would arise, the ones who had followed him would follow him. Then Ali-asws will arise, and the ones who had followed him-asws would follow him-asws.
ثُمَّ يَزِيدُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ فَيَتَّبِعُهُ مَنْ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّاهُ وَ يَقُومُ الْحَسَنُ فَيَتَّبِعُهُ مَنْ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّاهُ وَ يَقُومُ الْحُسَيْنُ فَيَتَّبِعُهُ مَنْ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّاهُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ مَرْوَانُ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ وَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ فَيَتَّبِعُهُمَا مَنْ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّاهُمَا

وَ كَأَنِّي بِكُمَا مَعِي ثُمَّ يُؤْتَى بِنَا فَيَجْلِسُ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ رَبُّنَا وَ يُؤْتَى بِالْكُتُبِ فَنَرْجِعُ فَنَشْهَدُ عَلَى عَدُوِّنَا وَ نَشْفَعُ لِمَنْ كَانَ مِنْ شِيعَتِنَا مُرَهَّقاً
And it is as if I-asws am with you being with me-asws, then they would come with us-asws and have us-asws to be seated upon the Throne of our-asws Lord-azwj, and they would bring the Books, so, we-asws shall return and testify against our-asws enemies, and we-asws will intercede for the ones who were from our-asws Shias who would be exhausted’.
قَالَ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ فَمَا الْمُرَهَّقُ قَالَ الْمُذْنِبُ فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا مِنْ شِيعَتِنَا فَقَدْ نَجَاهُمُ اللَّهُ بِمَفازَتِهِمْ لا يَمَسُّهُمُ السُّوءُ وَ لا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! What is the exhausted?’ He-asws said: ‘The sinner. As for those who are pious from our-asws Shias, so Allah-azwj would have Saved them with their salvation, the evil not having touched them nor will they be grieving’.
قَالَ ثُمَّ جَاءَتْهُ جَارِيَةٌ لَهُ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ فُلَاناً الْقُرَشِيَّ بِالْبَابِ فَقَالَ ائْذَنُوا لَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَنَا اسْكُتُوا
He (the narrator) said, ‘Then a maid of his-asws came, and she said, ‘So and so, the Qurayshi is at the door’. He-asws said: ‘Permit him’.

‘Tafseer Al-Ayyashi – From Ayz Bin Al Qasim,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws: ‘Some people from the clan of Hashim-as came to Rasool-Allah-saww and they asked him-saww to make them as office bearers upon the charities of the livestock, and they said, ‘This share happens to be for us, which has been made to be for the office bearers upon us, for we are foremost with it’.
فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَا بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ إِنَّ الصَّدَقَةَ لَا تَحِلُّ لِي وَ لَا لَكُمْ وَ لَكِنِّي وُعِدْتُ الشَّفَاعَةَ
Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O sons of Abdul Muttalib-as! The charity is neither Permissible for me-saww nor for you, but I-saww promise (you) the intercession’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ وَ اللَّهِ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ وَعَدَهَا فَمَا ظَنُّكُمْ يَا بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ إِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِحَلْقَةِ الْبَابِ أَ تَرَوْنِي مُؤْثِراً عَلَيْكُمْ غَيْرَكُمْ
Then he-saww said: ‘By Allah-azwj! I-saww testify that I-saww have been Promised it, so what are your thoughts, O sons of Abdul Muttalib-as, when I-saww grab the knocker of the door, do you see me-saww preferring others over you?’
ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ الْجِنَّ وَ الْإِنْسَ يَجْلِسُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فِي صَعِيدٍ وَاحِدٍ فَإِذَا طَالَ بِهِمُ الْمَوْقِفُ طَلَبُوا الشَّفَاعَةَ فَيَقُولُونَ إِلَى مَنْ فَيَأْتُونَ نُوحاً فَيَسْأَلُونَهُ الشَّفَاعَةَ فَقَالَ هَيْهَاتَ قَدْ رَفَعْتُ حَاجَتِي فَيَقُولُونَ إِلَى مَنْ فَيُقَالُ إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ فَيَأْتُونَ إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ
Then he-saww said: ‘The Jinns and the human beings would be seated on the Day of Qiyamah in one plain, so when the pausing prolongs with them, they will seek the intercession and they would say, ‘To whom (should we go)?’ They will be coming to Noah-as and ask him-as for the intercession, and he-as will say: ‘Far be it! I-as have raised my-as own need’. They will say, ‘To whom (then)? To Ibrahim-as’.
فَيَسْأَلُونَهُ الشَّفَاعَةَ فَيَقُولُ هَيْهَاتَ قَدْ رَفَعْتُ حَاجَتِي فَيَقُولُونَ إِلَى مَنْ فَيُقَالُ ايتُوا مُوسَى فَيَأْتُونَهُ فَيَسْأَلُونَهُ الشَّفَاعَةَ فَيَقُولُ هَيْهَاتَ قَدْ رَفَعْتُ حَاجَتِي فَيَقُولُونَ إِلَى مَنْ فَيُقَالُ ايتُوا مُحَمَّداً
They will come to Ibrahim-as and ask him-as for the intercession, and he-as will say: ‘Far be it! I-as have raised my-as own need’. They will say, ‘To whom?’ It would be said, ‘Go to Musa-as!’ They would come to him-as and ask him-as for the intercession. He-as will say: ‘Far be it! I-as have raised my-as own need’. They will say, ‘To whom?’ It would be said, ‘Go to Muhammad-saww!’
فَيَأْتُونَهُ فَيَسْأَلُونَهُ الشَّفَاعَةَ فَيَقُومُ مُدِلًّا حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ بَابَ الْجَنَّةِ فَيَأْخُذُ بِحَلْقَةِ الْبَابِ ثُمَّ يَقْرَعُهُ فَيُقَالُ مَنْ هَذَا فَيَقُولُ أَحْمَدُ فَيُرَحِّبُونَ وَ يَفْتَحُونَ الْبَابَ فَإِذَا نَظَرَ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ خَرَّ سَاجِداً يُمَجِّدُ رَبَّهُ بِالْعَظَمَةِ
They will come to him-saww and ask him-saww for the intercession, so he-saww would arise until he comes to the door of Paradise, and he-saww would grab a knocker of the door, then knock it. It will be said: ‘Who is this?’ He-saww will say: ‘Ahmad-saww’. They will welcome and open the door, so when he-saww looks at Paradise, he-saww will fall in Sajdah Glorifying his-saww Lord-azwj with the Magnificence’.
فَيَأْتِيهِ مَلَكٌ فَيَقُولُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَ سَلْ تُعْطَ وَ اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ فَيَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ فَيَدْخُلُ مِنْ بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ فَيَخِرُّ سَاجِداً وَ يُمَجِّدُ رَبَّهُ وَ يُعَظِّمُهُ فَيَأْتِيهِ مَلَكٌ فَيَقُولُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَ سَلْ تُعْطَ وَ اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ فَيَقُومُ فَمَا يَسْأَلُ شَيْئاً إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ
An Angel would come to him-saww and say: ‘Raise your-saww head and ask, you-saww will be Given, and intercede, you-saww will be interceded for’.

‘From Abu Ibrahim-asws (7th Imam-asws) regarding the Words of Allah-azwj perhaps your Lord will Raise you to a Praiseworthy position [17:79]. He-asws said: ‘The people will be standing on the Day of Qiyamah for a measurement of forty years, and the sun will be Commanded and it would come upon the heads of the servants and the sweat would choke them, and the ground will be Commanded not to accept anything from their sweat.
فَيَأْتُونَ آدَمَ فَيَتَشَفَّعُونَ مِنْهُ فَيَدُلُّهُمْ عَلَى نُوحٍ وَ يَدُلُّهُمْ نُوحٌ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَ يَدُلُّهُمْ إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَلَى مُوسَى وَ يَدُلُّهُمْ مُوسَى عَلَى عِيسَى وَ يَدُلُّهُمْ عِيسَى فَيَقُولُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِمُحَمَّدٍ خَاتَمِ الْبَشَرِ
They will come to Adam-as for the intercession from him-as, but he-as will point them to Noah-as, and Noah-as will point them to Ibrahim-as, and Ibrahim-as will point them to Musa-as, and Musa-as will point them to Isa-as, and Isa-as will point them saying: ‘Upon you all is with Muhammad-saww, the last of the giver of glad tidings’.

Muhammad-saww will be saying: ‘I-saww am for it!’ So, he-saww will go until he-saww comes to a door of Paradise, and knock. It will be said to him: ‘Who is this?’ – and Allah-azwj is more Knowing. He-saww will say: ‘Muhammad-saww’. It will be said: ‘Open for him!’ When the door is opened, his-saww will face his-saww Lord-azwj, and he-saww will fall in Sajdah, and he-saww will not raise his-saww head until He-azwj Says to him-saww: “Ask, you-saww will be Given, and intercede, you-saww will be interceded for!”

He-saww will raise his-saww head and face his-saww Lord-azwj, and fall in Sajdah, and He-azwj will Say to him-saww similar to it. He-saww will raise his-saww head until he intercedes for the ones who had already been burnt by the Fire. There is none from the people on the Day of Qiyamah in the entirety of the communities more conferring that Muhammad-saww, and it is the Word of Allah-azwj the Exalted: perhaps your Lord will Raise you to a Praiseworthy position [17:79]’’.[115]

ثُمَّ يُنْصَبُ لِأَوْلَادِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ مَنَابِرُ مِنْ نُورٍ فَيَكُونُ لِابْنَيَّ وَ سِبْطَيَّ وَ رَيْحَانَتَيَّ أَيَّامَ حَيَاتِي مِنْبَرٌ مِنْ نُورٍ ثُمَّ يُقَالُ لَهُمَا اخْطُبَا فَيَخْطُبَانِ بِخُطْبَتَيْنِ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَوْلَادِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ بِمِثْلِهَا
Then pulpits of light would be set up for the children of the Prophets-as and the Mursils-as, so there will happen to be for my-saww sons-asws and my-saww grandsons-asws and my-saww aromas of the days of my-saww lifetime, pulpits of light, then He-azwj will Say to them-asws both: “Address!” They-asws will both address with addresses no one from the children of the Prophets-as and the Mursils-as would have heard the like of it.
ثُمَّ يُنَادِي الْمُنَادِي وَ هُوَ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع أَيْنَ فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ مُحَمَّدٍ أَيْنَ خَدِيجَةُ بِنْتُ خُوَيْلِدٍ أَيْنَ مَرْيَمُ بِنْتُ عِمْرَانَ أَيْنَ آسِيَةُ بِنْتُ مُزَاحِمٍ أَيْنَ أُمُّ كُلْثُومٍ أُمُّ يَحْيَى بْنِ زَكَرِيَّا فَيَقُمْنَ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى يَا أَهْلَ الْجَمْعِ لِمَنِ الْكَرَمُ الْيَوْمَ فَيَقُولُ مُحَمَّدٌ وَ عَلِيٌّ وَ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ لِلَّهِ الْوَاحِدِ الْقَهَّارِ
Then the caller would call out, and he is Jibraeel-as: ‘Where is (Syeda) Fatima Bint Muhammad-asws? Where is (Syeda) Khadeeja Bint Khuwaylid-as? Where is (Syeda) Maryam Bint Imran-as? Where is Aasiya Bint Mazaham? Where is Kulsoom Umm Yahya Ibn Zakariya-as?’ So, they-as will arise and Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted will Say: “O people of the gathering! For whom is the Generosity today?” Muhammad-saww, and Ali-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws will say: ‘For Allah, the One, the Subduer!” [40:16]’.
فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى يَا أَهْلَ الْجَمْعِ إِنِّي قَدْ جَعَلْتُ الْكَرَمَ لِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلِيٍّ وَ الْحَسَنِ وَ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ فَاطِمَةَ يَا أَهْلَ الْجَمْعِ طَأْطِئُوا الرُّءُوسَ وَ غُضُّوا الْأَبْصَارَ فَإِنَّ هَذِهِ فَاطِمَةُ تَسِيرُ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ
Allah-azwj the Exalted will Say: “O people of the gathering! I-azwj have Made the generosity to be for Muhammad-saww, and Ali-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws, and Al-Husayn-asws, and (Syeda) Fatima-asws. O people of the gathering! Lower your head and close your eyes, for this here is (Syeda) Fatima-asws travelling to Paradise!”
فَيَأْتِيهَا جَبْرَئِيلُ بِنَاقَةٍ مِنْ نُوقِ الْجَنَّةِ مُدَبَّحَةَ الْجَنْبَيْنِ خِطَامُهَا مِنَ اللُّؤْلُؤِ الرَّطْبِ عَلَيْهَا رَحْلٌ مِنَ الْمَرْجَانِ فَتُنَاخُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهَا فَتَرْكَبُهَا فَيَبْعَثُ اللَّهُ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ مَلَكٍ لِيَسِيرُوا عَنْ يَمِينِهَا وَ يَبْعَثُ إِلَيْهَا مِائَةَ أَلْفِ مَلَكٍ عَنْ يَسَارِهَا وَ يَبْعَثُ إِلَيْهَا مِائَةَ أَلْفِ مَلَكٍ يَحْمِلُونَهَا عَلَى أَجْنِحَتِهِمْ حَتَّى يُصَيِّرُوهَا عَلَى بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ
Jibraeel-as will bring her-asws a she-camel from the she-camels of Paradise, fat on both sides, its halter being of wet pearls. Upon it would be a saddle of coral. It would kneel in front of her-asws and she-asws would ride it. Then Allah-azwj will Send a hundred thousand Angels to travel on her-asws right, and Send to her a hundred thousand Angels to travel on her-asws left, and Send to her a hundred thousand Angels to carry her-asws upon their wings until they come with her-asws at the door of Paradise.
فَإِذَا صَارَتْ عِنْدَ بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ تَلْتَفِتُ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ يَا بِنْتَ حَبِيبِي مَا الْتِفَاتُكِ وَ قَدْ أَمَرْتُ بِكِ إِلَى جَنَّتِي فَتَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ أَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ يُعْرَفَ قَدْرِي فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ
When she-asws comes to be at the door of Paradise, she-asws will turn around and Allah-azwj will Say: “O daughter-asws of My-azwj Beloved! What made you-asws turn around, and I-azwj have already Commanded with you-asws to My-azwj Paradise?” She-asws will say: ‘O Lord-azwj! I-asws would love it if my-asws worth be known in the like of this Day’.
فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ يَا بِنْتَ حَبِيبِي ارْجِعِي فَانْظُرِي مَنْ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ حُبٌّ لَكِ أَوْ لِأَحَدٍ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِكِ خُذِي بِيَدِهِ فَأَدْخِلِيهِ الْجَنَّةَ
Allah-azwj will Say: “O daughter-asws of My-azwj Beloved, Return! Look at the one in whose heart is any love for you-asws, or for anyone from your-asws offspring, grab his hand and enter him into Paradise!”
قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع وَ اللَّهِ يَا جَابِرُ إِنَّهَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ لَتَلْتَقِطُ شِيعَتَهَا وَ مُحِبِّيهَا كَمَا يَلْتَقِطُ الطَّيْرُ الْحَبَّ الْجَيِّدَ مِنَ الْحَبِّ الرَّدِيءِ
Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj, O Jabir! On that Day, she-asws will pick up her-asws Shias and ones who love her-asws, just as the bird tends to pick up the good seed from the bad.
فَإِذَا صَارَ شِيعَتُهَا مَعَهَا عِنْدَ بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ يُلْقِي اللَّهُ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ أَنْ يَلْتَفِتُوا فَإِذَا الْتَفَتُوا يَقُولُ اللَّهُ يَا أَحِبَّائِي مَا الْتِفَاتُكُمْ وَ قَدْ شَفَّعْتُ فِيكُمْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ حَبِيبِي فَيَقُولُونَ يَا رَبِّ أَحْبَبْنَا أَنْ يُعْرَفَ قَدْرُنَا فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ
When her-asws Shias come to be with her-asws at the door of Paradise, Allah-azwj would Cast into their hearts that they should turn around. When they do turn around, Allah-azwj will Say: “O My-azwj Beloved ones! What Made you to turn around and Fatima-asws daughter of My-azwj Beloved has already interceded regarding you all?” They will say, ‘O Lord-azwj! We would love it if our worth could be known in the like of this Day’.
فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ يَا أَحِبَّائِي ارْجِعُوا وَ انْظُرُوا مَنْ أَحَبَّكُمْ لِحُبِّ فَاطِمَةَ انْظُرُوا مَنْ أَطْعَمَكُمُ لِحُبِّ فَاطِمَةَ انْظُرُوا مَنْ كَسَاكُمْ لِحُبِّ فَاطِمَةَ انْظُرُوا مَنْ سَقَاكُمْ شَرْبَةً فِي حُبِّ فَاطِمَةَ انْظُرُوا مَنْ رَدَّ عَنْكُمْ غَيْبَةً فِي حُبِّ فَاطِمَةَ فَخُذُوا بِيَدِهِ وَ أَدْخِلُوهُ الْجَنَّةَ
Allah-azwj will Say: “O My-azwj Beloved ones! Return and look at the ones who loved you for the love of (Syeda) Fatima-asws! Look at the ones who fed you for the love of Fatima-asws! Look at the ones who clothed you for the love of Fatima-asws! Look at the ones who quenched you a drink for the sake of the love of Fatima-asws! Look at the one who repelled a backbite from you for the sake of the love of Fatima-asws, and grab his hand and enter him into Paradise!”
قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع وَ اللَّهِ لَا يَبْقَى فِي النَّاسِ إِلَّا شَاكٌّ أَوْ كَافِرٌ أَوْ مُنَافِقٌ فَإِذَا صَارُوا بَيْنَ الطَّبَقَاتِ نَادُوا كَمَا قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فَما لَنا مِنْ شافِعِينَ وَ لا صَدِيقٍ حَمِيمٍ فَيَقُولُونَ فَلَوْ أَنَّ لَنا كَرَّةً فَنَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! There is not remain among the people except a doubter, or a Kafir, or a hypocrite, then they come to be between the layers, they will call out just as Allah-azwj the Exalted Said: So there is none for us from the intercessors [26:100] Nor an intimate friend [26:101] If only there was one more chance for us, we would be from the Momineen [26:102]’.
قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع هَيْهَاتَ هَيْهَاتَ مُنِعُوا مَا طَلَبُوا وَ لَوْ رُدُّوا لَعادُوا لِما نُهُوا عَنْهُ وَ إِنَّهُمْ لَكاذِبُونَ
Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘Far be it! Far be it! And if they were to be returned, they would repeat what they had been Forbidden from; and they (would still) be lying [6:28]’’.[122]
60- ما، الأمالي للشيخ الطوسي الْمُفِيدُ عَنِ ابْنِ قُولَوَيْهِ عَنِ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الْبَرْقِيِّ عَنِ التَّفْلِيسِيِ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَبَّاسِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع قَالَ: يَا فَضْلُ إِنَّمَا سُمِّيَ الْمُؤْمِنُ مُؤْمِناً لِأَنَّهُ يُؤْمِنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَيُجِيزُ اللَّهُ أَمَانَهُ
‘Al-Amaali’ of the sheykh Al Tusi – Al Mufeed, from Ibn Qawlawiya, from Al Humeyri, from his father Al Barqy, from Al Tafleysi, from Abu Al Abbas Al Fazl Bin Abdul Malik,
‘From Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘O Fazl! But rather the Momin has been named as a ‘Momin’, because he believes in Allah-azwj and Allah-azwj will Allow his amnesty’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ أَ مَا سَمِعْتَ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ فِي أَعْدَائِكُمْ إِذَا رَأَوْا شَفَاعَةَ الرَّجُلِ مِنْكُمْ لِصَدِيقِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَما لَنا مِنْ شافِعِينَ وَ لا صَدِيقٍ حَمِيمٍ
Then he-asws said: ‘Have you not heard Allah-azwj Saying regarding your enemies, when they see the intercession of the man from you for his friend on the Day of Qiyamah: So, there is none for us from the intercessors [26:100] Nor an intimate friend [26:101]?’’.[123]
61- كا، الكافي عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ حَفْصٍ الْمُؤَذِّنِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فِي رِسَالَتِهِ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ قَالَ: وَ اعْلَمُوا أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ يُغْنِي عَنْكُمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ أَحَدٌ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ شَيْئاً لَا مَلَكٌ مُقَرَّبٌ وَ لَا نَبِيٌّ مُرْسَلٌ وَ لَا مَنْ دُونَ ذَلِكَ فَمَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَنْفَعَهُ شَفَاعَةُ الشَّافِعِينَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ فَلْيَطْلُبْ إِلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يَرْضَى عَنْهُ
‘Al Kafi’ – Ali, from his father, from Ibn Fazal, from Hafs Al Mowzan,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws in his-asws letter to his-asws companions: ‘And know that no one from His-azwj creatures can avail you anything from Allah-azwj, neither an Angel of Proximity, nor a Mursil Prophet-as, nor from besides that. So, the one whom it cheers that he should benefit from the intercession of the intercessors in the Presence of Allah-azwj, then let him seek to Allah-azwj that He-azwj be Pleased with him’’.[124]
62- فر، تفسير فرات بن إبراهيم عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ يَقُولُ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ وَ هِيَ حَزِينَةٌ فَقَالَ لَهَا مَا حَزَنَكِ يَا بُنَيَّةِ قَالَتْ يَا أَبَةِ ذَكَرْتُ الْمَحْشَرَ وَ وُقُوفَ النَّاسِ عُرَاةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ
‘Furat Bin Ibrahim’ – From Suleyman Bin Muhammad, by his chain from Ibn Abbas who said,
‘I heard Amir Al-Momineen-asws saying: ‘One day Rasool-Allah-saww came to (Syeda) Fatima-asws and she-asws was grieving, so he-saww said to her-asws: ‘What makes you-asws grieve, O daughter-asws?’ She-asws said: ‘O father-saww! You-saww had mentioned the gathering and the pausing of the people bare on the Day of Qiyamah’.
فَقَالَ يَا بُنَيَّةِ إِنَّهُ لَيَوْمٌ عَظِيمٌ وَ لَكِنْ قَدْ أَخْبَرَنِي جَبْرَئِيلُ عَنِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَنْشَقُّ عَنْهُ الْأَرْضُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَنَا ثُمَّ أَبِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ ثُمَّ بَعْلُكِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع
He-saww said: ‘O daughter-asws! It is a great Day, but Jibraeel-as has informed me-saww from Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic that He-azwj Said that the first one the ground would be split from on the Day of Qiyamah would be I-saww, then my-saww father-as Ibrahim-as, then your-asws husband Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws.
ثُمَّ يَبْعَثُ اللَّهُ إِلَيْكِ جَبْرَئِيلَ فِي سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ فَيَضْرِبُ عَلَى قَبْرِكِ سَبْعَ قِبَابٍ مِنْ نُورٍ ثُمَّ يَأْتِيكِ إِسْرَافِيلُ بِثَلَاثِ حُلَلٍ مِنْ نُورٍ فَيَقِفُ عِنْدَ رَأْسِكِ فَيُنَادِيكِ يَا فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتَ مُحَمَّدٍ قُومِي إِلَى مَحْشَرِكِ
Then Allah-azwj would Send Jibraeel-as to you-asws among seventy thousand Angels, and he-as will strike seven domes of light upon your-asws grave. Then Israfeel-as will come to you with three garments of light, and he-as will pause by your-asws head and call out to you-asws: ‘O Fatima Bint Muhammad-asws! Arise to your-asws gathering!’
فَتَقُومِينَ آمِنَةً رَوْعَتُكِ مَسْتُورَةً عَوْرَتُكِ فَيُنَاوِلُكِ إِسْرَافِيلُ الْحُلَلَ فَتَلْبَسِينَهَا وَ يَأْتِيكِ رُوفَائِيلُ بِنَجِيبَةٍ مِنْ نُورٍ زِمَامُهَا مِنْ لُؤْلُؤٍ رَطْبٍ عَلَيْهَا مِحَفَّةٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فَتَرْكَبِينَهَا وَ يَقُودُ رُوفَائِيلُ بِزِمَامِهَا وَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكِ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ أَلْوِيَةُ التَّسْبِيحِ
You-asws will be arising safe of fear, your-asws bareness being veiled, and Israfeel-as would give you-asws the garments, and you-asws will wear these. And Rowfaeel-as will come to you-asws with a ride of light, its reins being of wet pearls, upon it being a carriage of gold, and Rowfaeel-as would be guiding it by its reins, and in front of you-asws will be seventy thousand Angels having the flags of Glorification in their hands.
فَإِذَا جَدَّ بِكِ السَّيْرُ اسْتَقْبَلَتْكِ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ حَوْرَاءَ يَسْتَبْشِرُونَ بِالنَّظَرِ إِلَيْكِ بِيَدِ كُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ مِجْمَرَةٌ مِنْ نُورٍ يَسْطَعُ مِنْهَا رِيحُ الْعُودِ مِنْ غَيْرِ نَارٍ وَ عَلَيْهِنَّ أَكَالِيلُ الْجَوْهَرِ مُرَصَّعَةٌ بِالزَّبَرْجَدِ الْأَخْضَرِ فَيُسْرِعْنَ عَنْ يَمِينِكِ
When the travel is renewed with you-asws, seventy thousand Houries would welcome you been overjoyed with looking at you-asws. In the hand of every one of them would be a brazier of light, the aroma of Oud would be spreading from these without there being a fire, and upon them would be garlands of jewellery inlaid with the green emeralds. They will travel on your-asws right.
فَإِذَا سِرْتِ مِنْ قَبْرِكِ اسْتَقْبَلَتْكِ مَرْيَمُ بِنْتُ عِمْرَانَ فِي مِثْلِ مَنْ مَعَكِ مِنَ الْحُورِ فَتُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْكِ وَ تَسِيرُ هِيَ وَ مَنْ مَعَهَا عَنْ يَسَارِكِ ثُمَّ تَسْتَقْبِلُكِ أُمُّكِ خَدِيجَةُ بِنْتُ خُوَيْلِدٍ أَوَّلُ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ بِاللَّهِ وَ بِرَسُولِهِ وَ مَعَهَا سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ أَلْوِيَةُ التَّكْبِيرِ
When you-asws pass from your-asws grave, Maryam Bint Imran-as would welcome you among the ones with you-asws from the Houries, and greet upon you-asws. She-as and the ones with her-as would travel on your-asws left. Then you-asws will be welcomed by your-asws mother Khadeeja-as Bint Khuwaylid-as, the first believing woman in Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww, and with her-as would be seventy thousand Angels, in their hands would be flags of Takbeer.
فَإِذَا قَرُبْتِ مِنَ الْجَمْعِ اسْتَقْبَلَتْكِ حَوَّاءُ فِي سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ حَوْرَاءَ وَ مَعَهَا آسِيَةُ بِنْتُ مُزَاحِمٍ فَتَسِيرَانِ هُمَا وَ مَنْ مَعَهُمَا مَعَكِ فَإِذَا تَوَسَّطْتِ الْجَمْعَ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَجْمَعُ الْخَلَائِقَ فِي صَعِيدٍ وَاحِدٍ فَتَسْتَوِي بِهِمُ الْأَقْدَامُ
When you-asws come near to the gathering, Hawa-as will welcome you-as among seventy thousand Houries, and with her-as would be Aasiya Bint Mazaham-as, and they-as two and the ones with them-as would travel with you-asws. When you-asws come to the middle of the gathering, and that is because Allah-azwj would Gather the creatures in one plain, the feet would be settled with them.
ثُمَّ يُنَادِي مُنَادٍ مِنْ تَحْتِ الْعَرْشِ يُسْمِعُ الْخَلَائِقَ غُضُّوا أَبْصَارَكُمْ حَتَّى تَجُوزَ فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ مُحَمَّدٍ ص وَ مَنْ مَعَهَا فَلَا يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْكِ يَوْمَئِذٍ إِلَّا إِبْرَاهِيمُ خَلِيلُ الرَّحْمَنِ وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ يَطْلُبُ آدَمُ حَوَّاءَ فَيَرَاهَا مَعَ أُمِّكِ خَدِيجَةَ أَمَامَكِ
Then a Call will Call out from beneath the Throne, the creatures would hear: “Shut your eyes until (Syeda) Fatima-asws Bint Muhammad-saww and the ones with her-asws cross over!” Thus, no one will look at you on the Day except Ibrahim-as the Friend of the Beneficent and Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and Adam-as would seek Hawa-as and he-as see her-as to be with your-asws mother-as Khadeeja-as in front of you-asws.
ثُمَّ يُنْصَبُ لَكِ مِنْبَرٌ مِنَ النُّورِ فِيهِ سَبْعُ مَرَاقٍ بَيْنَ الْمِرْقَاةِ إِلَى الْمِرْقَاةِ صُفُوفُ الْمَلَائِكَةِ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ أَلْوِيَةُ النُّورِ وَ يَصْطَفُّ الْحُورُ الْعِينُ عَنْ يَمِينِ الْمِنْبَرِ وَ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ وَ أَقْرَبُ النِّسَاءِ مِنْكِ عَنْ يَسَارِكِ حَوَّاءُ وَ آسِيَةُ
Then a pulpit of light will be set up for you-asws wherein would be seven stairways, between the stairway to the stairway would be rows of Angels. In their hands would be flags of light, and the maiden Houries would line up on the right of the pulpit and on its left; and the closest of the womenfolk from you-asws on your-asws left would be Hawa-as and Aasiya-as.
فَإِذَا صِرْتِ فِي أَعْلَى الْمِنْبَرِ أَتَاكِ جَبْرَئِيلُ فَيَقُولُ لَكِ يَا فَاطِمَةُ سَلِي حَاجَتَكِ فَتَقُولِينَ يَا رَبِّ أَرِنِي الْحَسَنَ وَ الْحُسَيْنَ فَيَأْتِيَانِكِ وَ أَوْدَاجُ الْحُسَيْنِ تَشْخُبُ دَماً وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ خُذْ لِيَ الْيَوْمَ حَقِّي مِمَّنْ ظَلَمَنِي
When you-asws come to be at the top of the pulpit, Jibraeel-as will come to you-asws and say to you-asws: ‘O Fatima-asws! Ask your-asws need!’ You-asws would say: ‘O Lord-azwj! Show me-asws Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws’. They will be brought to you-asws and the veins of Al-Husayn-asws would be trickling blood and he-asws would be saying: ‘O Lord-azwj! Take my-asws right today from the ones who oppressed me-asws’.
فَيَغْضَبُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ الْجَلِيلُ وَ يَغْضَبُ لِغَضَبِهِ جَهَنَّمُ وَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَجْمَعُونَ فَتَزْفِرُ جَهَنَّمُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ زَفْرَةً ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ فَوْجٌ مِنَ النَّارِ وَ يَلْتَقِطُ قَتَلَةَ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ أَبْنَاءَهُمْ وَ أَبْنَاءَ أَبْنَائِهِمْ وَ يَقُولُونَ يَا رَبِّ إِنَّا لَمْ نَحْضُرِ الْحُسَيْنَ
The Majestic will be Wrathful at that, and Hell would be furious at His-azwj Wrath along with the entirety of the Angels. Hell would exhale an exhalation during that. Then an army would come out from the Fire and pick up the killers of Al-Husayn-asws and their sons and sons of their sons, and they would be saying, ‘O Lord-azwj! We did not attend (the killing of) Al-Husayn-asws (in the world)!’
فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ لِزَبَانِيَةِ جَهَنَّمَ خُذُوهُمْ بِسِيمَاهُمْ بِزُرْقَةِ الْأَعْيُنِ وَ سَوَادِ الْوُجُوهِ خُذُوا بِنَوَاصِيهِمْ فَأَلْقُوهُمْ فِي الدَّرْكِ الْأَسْفَلِ مِنَ النَّارِ فَإِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا أَشَدَّ عَلَى أَوْلِيَاءِ الْحُسَيْنِ مِنْ آبَائِهِمُ الَّذِينَ حَارَبُوا الْحُسَيْنَ فَقَتَلُوهُ فَتَسْمَعِينَ أَشْهِقَتَهُمْ فِي جَهَنَّمَ
Allah-azwj will Say to the Zabaniyya (Angels) of Hell: “Seize them by their forehead, by the blueness of the eyes, and blackness of the faces. Seize by their forelocks and Cast them into the lowest level of the Fire, for they used to be severe upon the friends of Al-Husayn-asws from their fathers, those who had battled Al-Husayn-asws and they killed him-asws” So you will hear their screams in Hell.
ثُمَّ يَقُولُ جَبْرَئِيلُ يَا فَاطِمَةُ سَلِي حَاجَتَكِ فَتَقُولِينَ يَا رَبِّ شِيعَتِي فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ قَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَهُمْ فَتَقُولِينَ يَا رَبِّ شِيعَةُ وُلْدِي فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ قَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَهُمْ فَتَقُولِينَ يَا رَبِّ شِيعَةُ شِيعَتِي فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ انْطَلِقِي فَمَنِ اعْتَصَمَ بِكِ فَهُوَ مَعَكِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ
Then Jibraeel-as will say: ‘O Fatima-asws! Ask your-asws need’. You-asws would say: ‘O Lord-azwj! My-asws Shias!’ Allah-azwj will Say: “I-saww hereby Forgive them!” You-asws would say, ‘O Lord-azwj! Shias of my-asws children!’ Allah-azwj will Say: “I-azwj hereby Forgive them!” You-asws would say: ‘O Lord-azwj! Shias of my-asws Shias’. Allah-azwj will Say: ‘Go, so the one who attaches with you-asws, would be with you-asws in Paradise’.
فَعِنْدَ ذَلِكَ تَوَدُّ الْخَلَائِقُ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا فَاطِمِيِّينَ فَتَسِيرِينَ وَ مَعَكِ شِيعَتُكِ وَ شِيعَةُ وُلْدِكِ وَ شِيعَةُ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ آمِنَةً رَوْعَاتُهُمْ مَسْتُورَةً عَوْرَاتُهُمْ قَدْ ذَهَبَتْ عَنْهُمُ الشَّدَائِدُ وَ سَهُلَتْ لَهُمُ الْمَوَارِدُ يَخَافُ النَّاسُ وَ هُمْ لَا يَخَافُونَ وَ يَظْمَأُ النَّاسُ وَ هُمْ لَا يَظْمَئُونَ
At that, the creatures would wish they had been Fatimids. You-asws will travel, and with you-asws would be your-asws Shias, and Shias of your-asws children, and Shias of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, their fear secured, their nakedness covered, the difficulties having gone away from them, and the resources eased for them. The people would fear and they will not be fearing, and the people would be thirsty and they will not be thirsty.
فَإِذَا بَلَغْتِ بَابَ الْجَنَّةِ تَلَقَّتْكِ اثْنَا عَشَرَ أَلْفَ حَوْرَاءَ لَمْ يَتَلَقَّيْنَ أَحَداً قَبْلَكِ وَ لَا يَتَلَقَّيْنَ أَحَداً كَانَ بَعْدَكِ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ حِرَابٌ مِنْ نُورٍ عَلَى نَجَائِبَ مِنْ نُورٍ جِلَالُهَا مِنَ الذَّهَبِ الْأَصْفَرِ وَ الْيَاقُوتِ أَزِمَّتُهَا مِنْ لُؤْلُؤٍ رَطْبٍ عَلَى كُلِّ نَجِيبٍ نُمْرُقَةٌ مِنْ سُنْدُسٍ
When you-asws reach the door of Paradise, twelve thousand Houries would meet you-asws, and they would not have met anyone else before you-asws, nor will they be meeting anyone else after you-asws. In their hands would be flames of light upon holders of light, its shine being of yellow gold and rubies, its holders of wet pearls, upon every holder would be a small pillow of silk.
فَإِذْ دَخَلْتِ الْجَنَّةَ تَبَاشَرُ بِكِ أَهْلُهَا وَ وُضِعَ لِشِيعَتِكِ مَوَائِدُ مِنْ جَوْهَرٍ عَلَى عُمُدٍ مِنْ نُورٍ فَيَأْكُلُونَ مِنْهَا وَ النَّاسُ فِي الْحِسَابِ وَ هُمْ فِي مَا اشْتَهَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ خالِدُونَ الْحَدِيثَ
When you-asws do enter Paradise, its inhabitants would sprinkle (incense water) on you, and tables of gems would be placed upon pillars of light. They will be eating from it while the people would be in the Reckoning, and they (shias) would be in whatever they desire for themselves, for all eternity’ – the Hadeeth’.[125]

And (the Day) in which no one from his-asws Shias would be present except there would be an increase in his light during it, so they will be travelling in it to the Gardens of Bliss, him and his brothers, and his wives, and his offspring, the doer of good to him, and the defenders of his in the world.
وَ لَا يَحْضُرُهَا مِنْ أَعْدَاءِ مُحَمَّدٍ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا غَشِيَتْهُ ظُلُمَاتُهَا فَتَسِيرُ فِيهَا إِلَى الْعَذَابِ الْأَلِيمِ هُوَ وَ شُرَكَاؤُهُ فِي عَقْدِهِ وَ دِينِهِ وَ مَذْهَبِهِ وَ الْمُتَقَرِّبُونَ كَانُوا فِي الدُّنْيَا إِلَيْهِ لِغَيْرِ تَقِيَّةٍ لَحَفَتْهُمْ مِنْهُ
Nor would anyone from the enemies of Muhammad-saww be present except its darkness would overwhelm him, so he would travel in it to the painful Punishment, him and his associates in his beliefs, and his religion, and his doctrines, and those who were going closer to them when they were in the world, without there being dissimulation, to get their rights from him.

‘Al Kafi’ – Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al-Hassan Bin Ali Bin Fazzaal, from Ali Bin Uqba, form Umar Bin Abaan, from Abdul Hameed Al-Wabishy, who has narrated the following:
Abu Ja’far-asws said, when I said from him-asws, ‘We have a neighbour who violates all the Prohibitions to the extent that he leaves the Prayer as well, among other matters’. He-asws said: ‘Glory be to Allah-azwj! And that is a great matter. However, shall I-asws inform you of the one who is eviler than him?’ I said, ‘Yes’.
قَالَ النَّاصِبُ لَنَا شَرٌّ مِنْهُ أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ عَبْدٍ يُذْكَرُ عِنْدَهُ أَهْلُ الْبَيْتِ فَيَرِقُّ لِذِكْرِنَا إِلَّا مَسَحَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ ظَهْرَهُ وَ غُفِرَ لَهُ ذُنُوبُهُ كُلُّهَا إِلَّا أَنْ يَجِيءَ بِذَنْبٍ يُخْرِجُهُ مِنَ الْإِيمَانِ وَ إِنَّ الشَّفَاعَةَ لَمَقْبُولَةٌ وَ مَا تُقُبِّلَ فِي نَاصِبٍ
He-asws said: ‘The one who is hostile to us-asws (Nasibi) is more evil than him. But rather, there is none from the servant in whose presence the People-asws of the Household are mentioned and he sympathises with our-asws remembrance, except that the Angels wipe his back, and all of his sins are Forgiven unless he commits a sin which takes him out of the ‘Eman’ (faith), and his intercession is Accepted whilst it is not acceptable for the Nasibi (hostile one).
وَ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ لَيَشْفَعُ لِجَارِهِ وَ مَا لَهُ حَسَنَةٌ فَيَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ جَارِي كَانَ يَكُفُ عَنِّي الْأَذَى فَيَشْفَعُ فِيهِ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى أَنَا رَبُّكَ وَ أَنَا أَحَقُّ مَنْ كَافَى عَنْكَ فَيُدْخِلُهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَ مَا لَهُ مِنْ حَسَنَةٍ
And that the Momin will intercede for his neighbour even if there is no good deed to his credit. He will say, ‘O Lord-azwj! My neighbour used to restrain himself from hurting me’, so he will intercede for him’. So Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted will say: “I-azwj am your Lord-azwj and more Right to Suffice for you. He-azwj will Enter him in Paradise although there will be no good deeds to his credit.
وَ إِنَّ أَدْنَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ شَفَاعَةً لَيَشْفَعُ لِثَلَاثِينَ إِنْسَاناً فَعِنْدَ ذَلِكَ يَقُولُ أَهْلُ النَّارِ فَما لَنا مِنْ شافِعِينَ وَ لا صَدِيقٍ حَمِيمٍ
And that the lowest of the ‘Momineen’ (Believers) would intercede for thirty people. When that happens, the inhabitants of the Fire will say, ‘So, there is none for us from the intercessors [26:100] Nor an intimate friend [26:101]’’.[133]

He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘So which thing are you-asws saying regarding it?’ He-asws said: ‘We-asws are saying: ‘And soon your Lord will Give you, so you will be pleased [93:5] – the intercession. By Allah-azwj! The intercession. By Allah-azwj! The intercession.[135]

قَالُوا وَ كَيْفَ يَنْفَعُنَا حُبُّهُمَا قَالَ إِنَّهُمَا يَأْتِيَانِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلِيّاً صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ بِخَلْقٍ كَثِيرٍ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ رَبِيعَةَ وَ مُضَرَ بِعَدَدِ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ فَيَقُولَانِ يَا أَخَا رَسُولِ اللَّهِ هَؤُلَاءِ أَحَبُّونَا بِحُبِّ مُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ بِحُبِّكَ
They said, ‘And how would having their love benefit us?’ He-saww said: ‘They would both be coming to Ali-asws on the Day of Qiyamah with a great number of people from those who love them, more than (the people of tribes of) Rabi’a and Muzar, by a number of each one of them, and they would be saying, ‘O brother-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! They loved us due to their love for Muhammad-saww, Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj and due to your-asws love’.
فَيَكْتُبُ عَلِيٌّ ع جُوزُوا عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ سَالِمِينَ وَ ادْخُلُوا الْجِنَانَ فَيَعْبُرُونَ عَلَيْهِ وَ يَرِدُونَ الْجَنَّةَ سَالِمِينَ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ أَحَداً لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ مِنْ سَائِرِ أُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ ص إِلَّا بِجَوَازٍ مِنْ عَلِيٍّ ع
Ali-asws would write out a permit for them to cross over the Bridge, and they would be crossing over it and be arriving at Paradise safely. And that is because no one can enter Paradise, from the rest of the community of Muhammad-saww, except by a permit from Ali-asws.
فَإِنْ أَرَدْتُمُ الْجَوَازَ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ سَالِمِينَ وَ دُخُولَ الْجِنَانِ غَانِمِينَ فَأَحِبُّوا بَعْدَ حُبِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ مَوَالِيَهُ
Thus, if you want the permit to cross upon the Bridge safely, and enter into Paradise as successful ones, then be loving, after having the love of Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws, his-asws love.
ثُمَّ إِنْ أَرَدْتُمْ أَنْ يُعَظِّمَ مُحَمَّدٌ وَ عَلِيٌّ ع عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مَنَازِلَكُمْ فَأَحِبُّوا شِيعَةَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلِيٍّ وَ جِدُّوا فِي قَضَاءِ حَوَائِجِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى إِذَا أَدْخَلَكُمُ مَعَاشِرَ شِيعَتِنَا وَ مُحِبِّينَا الْجِنَانَ نَادَى مُنَادِيهِ فِي تِلْكَ الْجِنَانِ يَا عِبَادِي قَدْ دَخَلْتُمُ الْجَنَّةَ بِرَحْمَتِي فَتَقَاسَمُوهَا عَلَى قَدْرِ حُبِّكُمْ لِشِيعَةِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلِيٍّ وَ قَضَاءِ حُقُوقِ إِخْوَانِكُمُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Then, if you want that Muhammad-saww and Ali-asws to magnify your status in the Presence of Allah-azwj, then be loving to the Shias of Muhammad-saww and Ali-asws, and strive in the fulfilment of the needs of your brethren, the Momineen, for Allah-azwj the Exalted, Enters you all into Paradise, group of our-asws Shias and those that love us-asws, a caller would call you in those Gardens: “You have entered into Paradise, O My-azwj servants, by My-azwj Mercy, and it would be apportioned upon a measurement of your love for the Shias of Muhammad-saww and Ali-asws and your fulfilment of the needs of your brethren, the Momineen!’
فَأَيُّهُمْ كَانَ أَشَدَّ لِلشِّيعَةِ حُبّاً وَ لِحُقُوقِ إِخْوَانِهِمُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَشَدَّ قَضَاءً كَانَتْ دَرَجَاتُهُ فِي الْجِنَانِ أَعْلَى حَتَّى إِنَّ فِيهِمْ مَنْ يَكُونُ أَرْفَعَ مِنَ الْآخَرِ بِمَسِيرَةِ خَمْسِمِائَةِ سَنَةٍ تَرَابِيعِ قُصُورٍ وَ جِنَانٍ
Whichever of them who was of more intense love for the Shias, and more excellent in fulfilling the rights of his brethren, the Momineen, his levels in the Gardens would be higher, to the extent that among them would happen to be higher than the other – by a travel distance of one hundred thousand years, in the magnificence of the castles and gardens’’.[136]
74- عد، العقائد اعتقادنا في الشفاعة أنها لمن ارتضي دينه من أهل الكبائر و الصغائر فأما التائبون من الذنوب فغير محتاجين إلى الشفاعة
(Majlisi says) ‘Our belief regarding the intercession is that it is for the one who Religion He-azwj is Pleased with from the people of the major sins and the minor sins. As for the repentants from the sins, so they are not needy to the intercession. (P.S. – This paragraph is not a Hadeeth)
و قال النبي ص من لم يؤمن بشفاعتي فلا أناله الله شفاعتي
‘And the Prophet-as said: ‘O who does not believe in my-saww intercession, so Allah-azwj will not Let him attain my-saww intercession’’.[137]
75- وَ قَالَ ص لَا شَفِيعَ أَنْجَحُ مِنَ التَّوْبَةِ وَ الشَّفَاعَةُ لِلْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ الْأَوْصِيَاءِ وَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ وَ فِي الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَنْ يَشْفَعُ مِثْلَ رَبِيعَةَ وَ مُضَرَ وَ أَقَلُّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ شَفَاعَةً مَنْ يَشْفَعُ لِثَلَاثِينَ إِنْسَاناً وَ الشَّفَاعَةُ لَا تَكُونُ لِأَهْلِ الشَّكِّ وَ الشِّرْكِ وَ لَا لِأَهْلِ الْكُفْرِ وَ الْجُحُودِ بَلْ يَكُونُ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ التَّوْحِيدِ
And he-saww said: ‘There is no intercession more rescuing than the repentance; and the interceding is for the Prophets-as, and the succesors-asws, and the Momineen, and the Angels, and regarding the Momineen there is interceding like (the tribes of) Rabie and Muzar, and the lowest of the Momineen would intercede for the ones he intercedes for, thirty people, and the intercession cannot happen to be for the people of doubt and the Shirk, nor for the people of Kufr and the rejection, but it happens to be for the Momineen from the people of Tawheed (Unitarians)’’.[138]
76- لي، الأمالي للصدوق بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص قَالَ: كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى ابْنَتِي فَاطِمَةَ وَ قَدْ أَقْبَلَتْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَى نَجِيبٍ مِنْ نُورٍ عَنْ يَمِينِهَا سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ وَ عَنْ يَسَارِهَا سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ وَ خَلْفَهَا سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ تَقُودُ مُؤْمِنَاتِ أُمَّتِي إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ
‘Al-Amaali’ of Al-Sadouq – By his chain from Ibn Abbas,
‘From the Prophet-saww having said: ‘It is as if I-saww am looking at my-saww daughter-asws Fatima-asws, and she-asws has come on the Day of Qiyamah upon a ride of light. One her-asws right are seventy thousand Angels, and on her-asws left are seventy thousand Angels, and behind her-asws are seventy thousand Angels, guiding the Mominaat of my-saww community to Paradise.
فَأَيُّمَا امْرَأَةٍ صَلَّتْ فِي الْيَوْمِ وَ اللَّيْلَةِ خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ وَ صَامَتْ شَهْرَ رَمَضَانَ وَ حَجَّتْ بَيْتَ اللَّهِ الْحَرَامَ وَ زَكَّتْ مَالَهَا وَ أَطَاعَتْ زَوْجَهَا وَ وَالَتْ عَلِيّاً بَعْدِي دَخَلَتِ الْجَنَّةَ بِشَفَاعَةِ ابْنَتِي فَاطِمَةَ الْخَبَرَ
Whichever woman who prays during the day and the night, five Salats, and Fasts the Month of Ramazan, and performs Hajj of the Sacred House of Allah-azwj, and gives Zakat of her wealth, and obeys her husband, and considers Ali-asws as a ruler after me-saww, would enter Paradise by the intercession of my-saww daughter (Syeda) Fatima-asws’ – the Hadeeth’.[139]

‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘For every Momin there are five timings on the Day of Qiyamah, he would be interceded for during it’’.[141]

And from his father, from Al Humeyri, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Abu Najran,
‘From Abu Al-Hassan-asws having said: ‘Our-asws Shias are those who are establishing the Salat, and are giving the Zakat, and are performing Hajj of the Sacred House, and are Fasting the Month of Ramazan, and are loyal to the People-asws of the Household, and are disavowing from their-asws enemies’ – and he continued the Hadeeth up to he-asws said: ‘And that one of them would be seeking intercession regarding the like of (number of the tribes of) Rabie and Muzar, so Allah-azwj will Intercede regarding them due to his dignity with Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic’’.[142]

From the book ‘Al Tamheys’,
‘From Abu Al-Hassan-asws the 1st having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww was saying: ‘Do not hold in light estimation the poor Shias of Ali-asws and his-asws Family-asws from after him-asws, for the man from them would intercede for the likes of (the number of the tribes of) Rabie and Muzar’’.[143]

‘Da’waat’ of Al Rawandy, from Sama’at Bin Mihran who said,
‘Abu Al-Hassan-asws said: ‘Whenever there was a need for you to Allah-azwj, then say:
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلِيٍّ فَإِنَّ لَهُمَا عِنْدَكَ شَأْناً مِنَ الشَّأْنِ وَ قَدْراً مِنَ الْقَدْرِ فَبِحَقِّ ذَلِكَ الشَّأْنِ وَ ذَلِكَ الْقَدْرِ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ بِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا
‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by the right of Muhammad-saww and Ali-asws, for them-asws both there are glories from the glory, and worth from the worth. By the right of that glory, and that worth, Send Salawat upon Muhammad-saww and the Progeny of Muhammad-saww, and that You-azwj should do such and such with me’.
فَإِنَّهُ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ لَمْ يَبْقَ مَلَكٌ مُقَرَّبٌ وَ لَا نَبِيٌّ مُرْسَلٌ وَ لَا مُؤْمِنٌ مُمْتَحَنٌ إِلَّا وَ هُوَ يَحْتَاجُ إِلَيْهِمَا فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ
When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, there will neither remain an Angel of Proximity, nor a Mursil Prophet-as, nor a Tested Momin except that he would be needy to them-asws both during that Day’’.[144]
82- م، تفسير الإمام عليه السلام عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص قَالَ: أَمَا إِنَّ مِنْ شِيعَةِ عَلِيٍّ ع لَمَنْ يَأْتِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَ قَدْ وُضِعَ لَهُ فِي كِفَّةِ سَيِّئَاتِهِ مِنَ الْآثَامِ مَا هُوَ أَعْظَمُ مِنَ الْجِبَالِ الرَّوَاسِي وَ الْبِحَارِ السَّيَّارَةِ تَقُولُ الْخَلَائِقُ هَلَكَ هَذَا الْعَبْدُ فَلَا يَشُكُّونَ أَنَّهُ مِنَ الْهَالِكِينَ وَ فِي عَذَابِ اللَّهِ مِنَ الْخَالِدِينَ
‘Tafseer of the Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws) – From the Prophet-saww having said: ‘But, from the Shias of Ali-asws would be the one who would come on the Day of Qiyamah, and there would be placed for him in the scale of his evil deeds from the sins what is greater than the mountain peaks and the waves of the ocean. The creatures would be saying, ‘This servant is destroyed. There is no doubt he is from the destroyed ones, and would be from the eternal ones in the Punishment of Allah-azwj.
فَيَأْتِيهِ النِّدَاءُ مِنْ قِبَلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى يَا أَيُّهَا الْعَبْدُ الْجَانِي هَذِهِ الذُّنُوبُ الْمُوبِقَاتُ فَهَلْ بِإِزَائِهَا حَسَنَةٌ تُكَافِئُهَا وَ تَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ بِرَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ أَوْ تَزِيدُ عَلَيْهَا فَتَدْخُلُهَا بِوَعْدِ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ الْعَبْدُ لَا أَدْرِي
There would come a call from Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: “O you servant, the wrong-doer, the offender! These are major sins (upon you). Are there, in their stead, any good deeds to suffice these, so you can enter Paradise of Allah-azwj by the Mercy of Allah-azwj, or an increase upon these (good deeds), so you can enter it?” The servant would be saying, ‘I don’t know’.
فَيَقُولُ مُنَادِي رَبِّنَا عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِنَّ رَبِّي يَقُولُ نَادِ فِي عَرَصَاتِ الْقِيَامَةِ أَلَا إِنَّ فُلَانَ بْنَ فُلَانٍ مِنْ بَلَدِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ قَرْيَةِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا قَدْ رُهِنَ بِسَيِّئَاتِهِ كَأَمْثَالِ الْجِبَالِ وَ الْبِحَارِ وَ لَا حَسَنَةَ بِإِزَائِهَا فَأَيُّ أَهْلِ هَذَا الْمَحْشَرِ كَانَتْ لِي عِنْدَهُ يَدٌ أَوْ عَارِفَةٌ فَلْيُغِثْنِي بِمُجَازَاتِي عَنْهَا فَهَذَا أَوَانُ شِدَّةِ حَاجَتِي إِلَيْهَا
The caller of our Lord-azwj Mighty and Majestic would call out: ‘My Lord-azwj is saying: “Call out in the plains of the Day of Qiyamah, ‘I am so and so from the people of such and such city. I have been mortgaged by evil deeds which are like the mountain and the sea and there are no good deeds for me in my account. Whoever of the people of this plain who has a hand (of favour) for me, or knows me, so let him help me with my being rescued from it, for this is the time of my most intense need to it’.
فَيُنَادِي الرَّجُلُ بِذَلِكَ فَأَوَّلُ مَنْ يُجِيبُهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ لَبَّيْكَ لَبَّيْكَ لَبَّيْكَ أَيُّهَا الْمُمْتَحَنُ فِي مَحَبَّتِي الْمَظْلُومُ بِعَدَاوَتِي
The man would call out with that, and the first one who answers him would be Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws: ‘Here I-asws am! Here I-asws am, O you, the one being tried regarding my-asws love, the one oppressed by my-asws enemies.
ثُمَّ يَأْتِي هُوَ وَ مَنْ مَعَهُ عَدَدٌ كَثِيرٌ وَ جَمٌّ غَفِيرٌ وَ إِنْ كَانُوا أَقَلَّ عَدَداً مِنْ خُصَمَائِهِ الَّذِينَ لَهُمْ قِبَلَهُ الظُّلَامَاتُ
Then he-asws would come, and with him-asws would be a large number and a myriad (of people), and even though they would be fewer in number than his-asws disputants – those who had grievances before him-asws.
فَيَقُولُ ذَلِكَ الْعَدَدُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ نَحْنُ إِخْوَانُهُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ كَانَ بِنَا بَارّاً وَ لَنَا مُكْرِماً وَ فِي مُعَاشَرَتِهِ إِيَّانَا مَعَ كَثْرَةِ إِحْسَانِهِ إِلَيْنَا مُتَوَاضِعاً وَ قَدْ نَزَلْنَا لَهُ عَنْ جَمِيعِ طَاعَاتِنَا وَ بَذَلْنَاهَا لَهُ
That number would be saying, ‘O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! We are his brothers, the Momineen. He was righteous with us, and he was honourable to us, and in his community he was assisting us along with a lot of his favours to us, he was modest, and we have brought down for him the entirety of our acts of obedience and make it to be for him’.
فَيَقُولُ عَلِيٌّ ع فَبِمَا ذَا تَدْخُلُونَ جَنَّةَ رَبِّكُمْ فَيَقُولُونَ بِرَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ الْوَاسِعَةِ الَّتِي لَا يَعْدَمُهَا مَنْ وَالاكَ وَ وَالَى آلَكَ يَا أَخَا رَسُولِ اللَّهِ
Ali-asws would be saying: ‘Then by what would you be entering Paradise of your Lord-azwj?’ They would be saying, ‘By His-azwj Mercy, the Capacious, which there is no remoteness from the one who loves you-asws and befriends your-asws friends, O brother-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww!’
فَيَأْتِي النِّدَاءُ مِنْ قِبَلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى يَا أَخَا رَسُولِ اللَّهِ هَؤُلَاءِ إِخْوَانُهُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ قَدْ بَذَلُوا لَهُ فَأَنْتَ مَا ذَا تَبْذُلُ لَهُ فَإِنِّي أَنَا الْحَكَمُ مَا بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَهُ مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ قَدْ غَفَرْتُهَا لَهُ بِمُوَالاتِهِ إِيَّاكَ وَ مَا بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ عِبَادِي مِنَ الظُّلَامَاتِ فَلَا بُدَّ مِنْ فَصْلِي بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَهُمْ
A call would come from Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: “O brother-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! These are your-asws brothers, the Momineen. They have made it to be for him (what could rescue him), so what is that which you-asws are making it to be for him, for I-azwj am the Judge of what is between Me-azwj and him, from the sins which I-azwj have Forgiven for him due to his being in your-asws Wilayah, and whatever is between him and My-azwj servants from the wrongs, so it is inevitable from the Judgmental decision between him and them”.
فَيَقُولُ عَلِيٌّ ع يَا رَبِّ أَفْعَلُ مَا تَأْمُرُنِي
Ali-asws would be saying: ‘O Lord-azwj! I-asws will do whatever You-azwj Command me-asws to’.
فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ يَا عَلِيُّ اضْمَنْ لِخُصَمَائِهِ تَعْوِيضَهُمْ عَنْ ظُلَامَاتِهِمْ قِبَلَهُ
Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic would be Saying: “O Ali-asws! Guarantee to his disputants that you-asws would be compensating them for his wrongdoings upon them”.
فَيَضْمَنُ لَهُمْ عَلِيٌّ ع ذَلِكَ وَ يَقُولُ لَهُمْ اقْتَرِحُوا عَلَى مَا شِئْتُمْ أُعْطِكُمْ عِوَضاً مِنْ ظُلَامَاتِكُمْ قِبَلَهُ
Ali-asws would be guaranteeing that to them and he-asws would be saying to them: ‘Suggest to me-asws whatever you so desire to, I-asws shall give it to you instead for the wrongdoings from him’.
فَيَقُولُونَ يَا أَخَا رَسُولِ اللَّهِ تَجْعَلُ لَنَا بِإِزَاءِ ظُلَامَتِنَا قِبَلَهُ ثَوَابَ نَفَسٍ مِنْ أَنْفَاسِكَ لَيْلَةَ بَيْتُوتَتِكَ عَلَى فِرَاشِ مُحَمَّدٍ ص
They would be saying, ‘O brother-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! (We want) you-asws to make it to be for us, as a compensation of his wrongdoings to us, the Rewards of one breath of your-asws breathing on the night you-asws spent upon the bed of Muhammad-saww, (the night of Hijra)’.
فَيَقُولُ عَلِيٌّ ع قَدْ وَهَبْتُ ذَلِكَ لَكُمْ
Ali-asws would be saying: ‘I-asws have gifted that to you all’.
فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَانْظُرُوا يَا عِبَادِيَ الْآنَ إِلَى مَا نِلْتُمُوهُ مِنْ عَلِيٍّ فِدَاءً لِصَاحِبِهِ مِنْ ظُلَامَاتِكُمْ وَ يُظْهِرُ لَهُمْ ثَوَابَ نَفَسٍ وَاحِدٍ فِي الْجِنَانِ مِنْ عَجَائِبِ قُصُورِهَا وَ خَيْرَاتِهَا فَيَكُونُ ذَلِكَ مَا يُرْضِي اللَّهُ بِهِ خُصَمَاءَ أُولَئِكَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic would be Saying: “Look now, O My-azwj servants, at what you have attained from Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, as expiation for the wrongdoings of your companion on you!”. And there would be displayed for them, the Rewards of one breath (of Ali-asws), in the Gardens, from its wonderful castles and its goodness(es). Thus, there would be happen to be from that, what Allah-azwj would Please them with – the disputants to those Momineen.
ثُمَّ يُرِيهِمْ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مِنَ الدَّرَجَاتِ وَ الْمَنَازِلِ مَا لَا عَيْنٌ رَأَتْ وَ لَا أُذُنٌ سَمِعَتْ وَ لَا خَطَرَ عَلَى بَالِ بَشَرٍ
Then, after that, they would be shown from the levels and the stations – that which neither has an eye seen, nor has an ear heard, nor has the mind of a human conceived of.
يَقُولُونَ يَا رَبَّنَا هَلْ بَقِيَ مِنْ جِنَانِكَ شَيْءٌ إِذَا كَانَ هَذَا كُلُّهُ لَنَا فَأَيْنَ تَحِلُّ سَائِرُ عِبَادِكَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ وَ الصِّدِّيقُونَ وَ الشُّهَدَاءُ وَ الصَّالِحُونَ وَ يُخَيَّلُ إِلَيْهِمْ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ بِأَسْرِهَا قَدْ جُعِلَتُ لَهُمْ
They would be saying, ‘O our Lord-azwj! Does there remain anything from Your-azwj paradise (for anybody else), when it was so that all of this is for us? Whereabouts would Your-azwj servants, the Momineen, and the Prophets-as, and the truthful, and the martyrs, and the righteous would be?’ And they would be thinking during that, that Paradise in its entirety has been Made to be for them (only).
فَيَأْتِي النِّدَاءُ مِنْ قِبَلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى يَا عِبَادِي هَذَا ثَوَابُ نَفَسٍ مِنْ أَنْفَاسِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ الَّذِي اقْتَرَحْتُمُوهُ عَلَيْهِ قَدْ جَعَلَهُ لَكُمْ فَخُذُوهُ وَ انْظُرُوا
A call would come from Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: “O My-saww servants! This is the Reward of one breath from the breathing of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, which you had suggested to him-asws. He-asws has made it to be for you all. Therefore, take it and look around!”
فَيَصِيرُونَ هُمْ وَ هَذَا الْمُؤْمِنُ الَّذِي عَوَّضَهُ عَلِيٌّ ع فِي تِلْكَ الْجِنَانِ ثُمَّ يَرَوْنَ مَا يُضِيفُهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَى مَمَالِكِ عَلِيٍّ ع فِي الْجِنَانِ مَا هُوَ أَضْعَافُ مَا بَذَلَهُ عَنْ وَلِيِّهِ الْمُوَالِي لَهُ مِمَّا شَاءَ مِنَ الْأَضْعَافِ الَّتِي لَا يَعْرِفُهَا غَيْرُهُ
They would be coming – them and this Momin whom Ali-asws compensated on his behalf, to those Gardens. Then they would be seeing what Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic has Added to the kingdoms of Ali-asws in the Garden, what would be a multiple of what he-asws made to be on behalf of his-asws friend, to the friends of his-asws, from whatever Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic so Desires, from the additions which none knows apart from Him-azwj.
ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَ ذلِكَ خَيْرٌ نُزُلًا أَمْ شَجَرَةُ الزَّقُّومِ الْمُعَدَّةُ لِمُخَالِفِي أَخِي وَ وَصِيِّي عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع
Then Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Is that a better lodgement or the tree of Zaqqum? [37:62] – The (lodgement) prepared for the adversaries of my-saww brother-asws, and my-saww successor Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws.[145]

He served me and was saving me from the heat and the cold’. He-azwj will Intercede regarding him’’.[149]
باب 22 الصراط
CHAPTER 22 – THE BRIDGE
الآيات الفجر إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِالْمِرْصادِ
The Verses – (Surah) Al-Fajr: Surely, your Lord is Ever-watchful [89:14]
وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع أَنَّ مَعْنَاهُ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ قَادِرٌ عَلَى أَنْ يَجْزِيَ أَهْلَ الْمَعَاصِي جَزَاءَهُمْ
And it is reported from Ali-asws: ‘Its meaning is that your Lord-azwj is Able upon Recompensing the disobedient people, their Recompense’.
وَ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: الْمِرْصَادُ قَنْطَرَةٌ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ لَا يَجُوزُهَا عَبْدٌ بِمَظْلِمَةٍ
And from Al Said, he said: ‘The ‘Ever’Watchful’ is the watching out upon the Bridge. No servant with a grievance (against him) will cross it’.

‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘The people would be passing upon the Bridge in layers, and the Bridge is thinner than the hair and (sharper) than the sharpness of the sword. From them would be one who will pass like the lightning, and from them would be one who will pass like the galloping of the horse, and from them would be one who will pass like crawling, and from them would be one who will pass walking, and from them would be one who will pass clinging, the Fire taking something from him and leaving something’’.[150]
2- فس، تفسير القمي أَبِي عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ وَ جِيءَ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِجَهَنَّمَ سُئِلَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي الرُّوحُ الْأَمِينُ أَنَّ اللَّهَ لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ إِذَا بَرَّزَ الْخَلَائِقَ وَ جَمَعَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ أَتَى بِ جَهَنَّمَ تُقَادُ بِأَلْفِ زِمَامٍ يَقُودُهَا مِائَةُ أَلْفِ مَلَكٍ مِنَ الْغِلَاظِ الشِّدَادِ
‘Tafseer Al-Qummi’ – My father, from Amro Bin Usman, from Jabir,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘When this Verse was Revealed: And on that Day they would come with Hell. [89:23], Rasool-Allah-saww was asked about that, so he-saww said: ‘The Trustworthy Spirit informed me that Allah-azwj, there is no god apart from Him-azwj, when He-azwj Send forth the creatures, He-azwj would Gather the former ones and the latter ones, they would come with Hell pulled by a thousand reins, a thousand Angels of severe cruelly would be pulling it.
لَهَا هَدَّةٌ وَ غَضَبٌ وَ زَفِيرٌ وَ شَهِيقٌ وَ إِنَّهَا لَتَزْفِرُ الزَّفْرَةَ فَلَوْ لَا أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَخَّرَهُمْ لِلْحِسَابِ لَأَهْلَكَتِ الْجَمْعَ ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا عُنُقٌ فَيُحِيطُ بِالْخَلَائِقِ الْبَرِّ مِنْهُمْ وَ الْفَاجِرِ
For it would be an echo, and wrath, and exhalation and inhalation. And it will exhale the exhalation, so if Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic had not Delayed them for the Reckoning, it would have destroyed the (people of the) gathering. Then a neck will come out from it and encompass the creatures, the righteous ones from them and the immoral.
فَمَا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَبْداً مِنْ عِبَادِهِ مَلَكاً وَ لَا نَبِيّاً إِلَّا يُنَادِي رَبِّ نَفْسِي نَفْسِي وَ أَنْتَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ تُنَادِي أُمَّتِي أُمَّتِي
There is no creature of Allah-azwj, a servant from His-azwj servants, Angel, or Prophet-as except that he would call out, ‘O Lord-azwj, (save) my soul! (save) my soul! Whilst you-saww, O Prophet-saww of Allah-azwj would be saying: ‘O Lord-azwj, (save) my-saww community! (save) My-saww community!’
ثُمَّ يُوضَعُ عَلَيْهَا الصِّرَاطُ أَدَقَّ مِنَ الشَّعْرَةِ وَ أَحَدَّ مِنَ السَّيْفِ عَلَيْهَا ثَلَاثُ قَنَاطِرَ فَأَمَّا وَاحِدَةٌ فَعَلَيْهَا الْأَمَانَةُ وَ الرَّحِمُ وَ أَمَّا ثَانِيهَا فَعَلَيْهَا الصَّلَاةُ وَ أَمَّا الثَّالِثَةُ فَعَلَيْهَا عَدْلُ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ
Then a Bridge would be placed over it, thinner than the hair, and sharper than the sword. It would have three hurdles for it. As for the one, upon it would be the entrustments and the relationship, and as for the second, upon it would be the Salat, and as for the third, upon it would be justice of the Lord-azwj of the worlds, there is no god apart from Him-azwj.
فَيُكَلَّفُونَ الْمَمَرَّ عَلَيْهَا فَتَحْبِسُهُمُ الرَّحِمُ وَ الْأَمَانَةُ فَإِنْ نَجَوْا مِنْهَا حَبَسَتْهُمُ الصَّلَاةُ فَإِنْ نَجَوْا مِنْهَا كَانَ الْمُنْتَهَى إِلَى رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ وَ هُوَ قَوْلُهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِالْمِرْصادِ
They would be encumbered with the crossing over it, so the relationship and the entrustment would withhold him. If he is saved from these, the Salat would withhold him, and if he is saved from it, he would end up to the Lord-azwj of the worlds Mighty and Majestic, and it is the Word of the Blessed and Exalted: Surely, your Lord is Ever-watchful [89:14].
وَ النَّاسُ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ فَمُتَعَلِّقٌ بِيَدٍ وَ تَزُولُ قَدَمٌ وَ يَسْتَمْسِكُ بِقَدَمٍ وَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ حَوْلَهَا يُنَادُونَ يَا حَلِيمُ اغْفِرْ وَ اصْفَحْ وَ عُدْ بِفَضْلِكَ وَ سَلِّمْ سَلِّمْ وَ النَّاسُ يَتَهَافَتُونَ فِي النَّارِ كَالْفَرَاشِ
And the people upon the Bridge clinging by the hands, and a foot would slip, and a foot would stick, and the Angels would be around it calling out: ‘O Forbearing, Forgive and Pardon, and Count with Your-azwj Grace, and safety, safety!’ And the people would be coming to the Fire like the flies.
فَإِذَا نَجَا نَاجٍ بِرَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مَرَّ بِهَا فَقَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَ بِنِعْمَتِهِ تَتِمُّ الصَّالِحَاتُ وَ تَزْكُو الْحَسَنَاتُ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي نَجَّانِي مِنْكِ بَعْدَ إِيَاسٍ بِمَنِّهِ وَ فَضْلِهِ إِنَّ رَبَّنا لَغَفُورٌ شَكُورٌ
If he is rescued, he would be Rescued by the Mercy of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Commanded with it, and he will say, ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj, and by His-azwj Favour, the righteous deeds are completed, and the good deeds are purified. And the Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Rescued me from you (Hell) after I had despaired of His-azwj Favour and His-azwj Grace. Surely our Lord-azwj if Forgiving, Grateful’’.[151]

‘I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about the Bridge, and he-asws said: ‘It is the path to recognition of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, and these are two bridges, a bridge in the world and a Bridge in the Hereafter.
فَأَمَّا الصِّرَاطُ الَّذِي فِي الدُّنْيَا فَهُوَ الْإِمَامُ الْمَفْرُوضُ الطَّاعَةِ مَنْ عَرَفَهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ اقْتَدَى بِهُدَاهُ مَرَّ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ الَّذِي هُوَ جِسْرُ جَهَنَّمَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَ مَنْ لَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا زَلَّتْ قَدَمُهُ عَنِ الصِّرَاطِ فِي الْآخِرَةِ فَتَرَدَّى فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ
As for the Bridge which is in the world, so it is the Imam-asws, the one Obligatory to be obeyed. One who recognises him-asws in the world and takes guidance by his-asws guidance, would pass upon the Bridge which is an archway over Hell in the Hereafter. And one who does not recognise him-asws in the world, his feet would slip from the Bridge in the Hereafter, so he would fall into the Fire of Hell’’.[152]

‘Al Kafi’ – Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ibn Isa, from Ibn Bazie, from Hanan Bin Sadeyr, from his father,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘Abu Zarr-ra said, ‘I heard Rasool-Allah-saww saying: ‘One the two edges of the Bridge on the Day of Qiyamah would be the relationship and the entrustment. When the maintainer of the relationships and the payer of the entrustments passes by, he would carry on to Paradise; and when the betrayer of the entrustment, the terminator of the relationships, no deed would benefit him with these two, and the Bridge would roll him into the Fire’’.[158]

‘Al-Amaali’ of the sheykh Al Tusi – Al Faham, from Muhammad Bin Al Hashim Al Hashimy, from Abu Hashim Bin Al Qasim, from Muhammad bin Zakariyya Bin Abdullah, from Abdullah Bin Al Masny, from Tamama Bin Abdullah Bin Anas Bin Malik, from his father, from his grandfather,
‘From the Prophet-saww having said: ‘When it will be the Day of Qiyamah and the Bridge it set up over Hell, none will cross upon it except who had with him a permit wherein is the Wilayah of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and that is His-azwj Word: And stop them! They have to be Questioned [37:24] – meaning about the Wilayah of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’’.[160]
12- م، تفسير الإمام عليه السلام عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص قَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى إِذَا بَعَثَ الْخَلَائِقَ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ نَادَى مُنَادِي رَبِّنَا مِنْ تَحْتِ عَرْشِهِ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْخَلَائِقِ غُضُّوا أَبْصَارَكُمْ لِتَجُوزَ فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ مُحَمَّدٍ سَيِّدَةُ نِسَاءِ الْعَالَمِينَ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ
‘Tafseer of the Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws)’ – From the Prophet-saww having said: ‘Allah-azwj the Exalted, when He-azwj Resurrects the creatures, from the former ones and the latter ones – a caller of our Lord-azwj would call out from beneath His-azwj Throne: ‘O group of creatures! Close your eyes so that (Syeda) Fatima-asws, daughter-asws of Muhammad-saww, chief of the women of the world crosses over the Bridge!’
فَتَغُضُّ الْخَلَائِقُ كُلُّهُمْ أَبْصَارَهُمْ فَتَجُوزُ فَاطِمَةُ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ لَا يَبْقَى أَحَدٌ فِي الْقِيَامَةِ إِلَّا غَضَّ بَصَرَهُ عَنْهَا إِلَّا مُحَمَّدٌ وَ عَلِيٌّ وَ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ وَ الطاهرين [الطَّاهِرُونَ] مِنْ أَوْلَادِهِمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ أَوْلَادُهَا فَإِذَا دَخَلَتِ الْجَنَّةَ بَقِيَ مِرْطُهَا مَمْدُوداً عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ طَرَفٌ مِنْهُ بِيَدِهَا وَ هِيَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ طَرَفٌ فِي عَرَصَاتِ الْقِيَامَةِ
The creatures, all of them would close their eyes, and (Syeda) Fatima-asws would cross upon the Bridge. There would not remain anyone in the (plains) of the (Day of) Judgment except he would have shut his eyes from her-asws – except for Muhammad-saww, and Ali-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws, and Al-Husayn-asws, and the clean ones-asws from their-asws children, for they-asws are her-asws sanctimonious ones. When she-asws does enter Paradise, there would remain her-asws strands of clothing extended upon the Bridge, an end from it being in her-asws hand, and she-asws would be in Paradise, and an end (of it) in the plains of the (Day of) Qiyamah.
فَيُنَادِي مُنَادِي رَبِّنَا يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُحِبُّونَ لِفَاطِمَةَ تَعَلَّقُوا بِأَهْدَابِ مِرْطِ فَاطِمَةَ سَيِّدَةِ نِسَاءِ الْعَالَمِينَ فَلَا يَبْقَى مُحِبٌّ لِفَاطِمَةَ إِلَّا تَعَلَّقَ بِهُدْبَةٍ مِنْ أَهْدَابِ مِرْطِهَا حَتَّى يَتَعَلَّقَ بِهَا أَكْثَرُ مِنْ أَلْفِ فِئَامٍ وَ أَلْفِ فِئَامٍ
Then a caller of our Lord-azwj would call out: ‘O you the devotees of (Syeda) Fatima-asws! Attach yourselves with the fringes of a strand (of a cloth) of Fatima-asws, Chieftess of the women of the worlds!’ So, there would not remain a single devotee of Fatima-asws except he would attach himself with a fringe from the fringes of her cloth, to the extent that there would be attaching with it more than a thousand Fiams, and a thousand Fiams, and a thousand Fiams’.
قَالُوا وَ كَمْ فِئَامٌ وَاحِدٌ قَالَ أَلْفُ أَلْفٍ يُنْجَوْنَ بِهَا مِنَ النَّارِ
They said: ‘And how many constitute one Fiam?’ He-saww said ‘A million rescued by her-asws from the Fire’’.[161]
13- م، تفسير الإمام عليه السلام عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص قَالَ: إِنَّهُ لَيُرَى يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِلَى جَانِبِ الصِّرَاطِ عَالَمٌ كَثِيرٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْرِفُ عَدَدَهُمْ إِلَّا اللَّهُ تَعَالَى هُمْ كَانُوا مُحِبِّي حَمْزَةَ وَ كَثِيرٌ مِنْهُمْ أَصْحَابُ الذُّنُوبِ وَ الْآثَامِ فَتَحُولُ حِيطَانٌ بَيْنَهُمْ وَ بَيْنَ سُلُوكِ الصِّرَاطِ وَ الْعُبُورِ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ فَيَقُولُونَ يَا حَمْزَةُ قَدْ تَرَى مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ
‘Tafseer of the Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws) – From the Prophet-saww having said: ‘‘He-asws, on the Day of Qiyamah, would see the crowds of multitudes of people – none recognising their number except for Allah-azwj the Exalted – they would be those that love Hamza-asws; and most of them would be committers of sins and misdeeds. The walls of the Fire would be transformed between them and the path of the Bridge – the crossing to Paradise, and they would be saying, ‘O Hamza-asws! You-asws can see what (predicament) we are in’.
فَيَقُولُ حَمْزَةُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع قَدْ تَرَيَانِ أَوْلِيَائِي يَسْتَغِيثُونَ بِي فَيَقُولُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لِعَلِيٍّ وَلِيِّ اللَّهِ يَا عَلِيُّ أَعِنْ عَمَّكَ عَلَى إِغَاثَةِ أَوْلِيَائِهِ وَ اسْتِنْقَاذِهِمْ مِنَ النَّارِ
Hamza-asws would be saying to Rasool-Allah-saww and to Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, ‘You-saww have both seen my-asws friends how they are seeking help with me-asws!’ Muhammad-saww, Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj would be saying to Ali-asws, Guardian-asws of Allah-azwj: ‘O Ali-asws! Assist your-asws uncle-asws upon the cries of help of his-asws friends and save them from the Fire’.
فَيَأْتِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع بِالرُّمْحِ الَّذِي كَانَ يُقَاتِلُ بِهِ حَمْزَةُ أَعْدَاءَ اللَّهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا فَيُنَاوِلُهُ إِيَّاهُ وَ يَقُولُ يَا عَمَّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ عَمَّ أَخِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ذُدِ الْجَحِيمَ عَنْ أُولَئِكَ بِرُمْحِكَ هَذَا كَمَا كُنْتَ تَذُودُ بِهِ عَنْ أَوْلِيَاءِ اللَّهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا أَعْدَاءَ اللَّهِ
Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws would come with the spear which Hamza-asws used to fight the enemies of Allah-azwj the Exalted with in the world, and he-asws would give it to him-asws and would be saying: ‘O uncle of Rasool-Allah-saww, and uncle of the brother-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! Block the Blazing Fires from your-asws friends – by this spear of yours-asws which you-asws used to defend with – the friends of Allah-azwj in the world, against the enemies of Allah-azwj’.
فَيَتَنَاوَلُ حَمْزَةُ الرُّمْحَ بِيَدِهِ فَيَضَعُ زُجَّهُ فِي حِيطَانِ النَّارِ الْحَائِلَةِ بَيْنَ أَوْلِيَائِهِ وَ بَيْنَ الْعُبُورِ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ وَ يَدْفَعُهَا دَفْعَةً فَيُنَحِّيهَا مَسِيرَةَ خَمْسِمِائَةِ عَامٍ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لِأَوْلِيَائِهِ وَ الْمُحِبِّينَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا لَهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا اعْبُرُوا فَيَعْبُرُونَ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ آمِنِينَ سَالِمِينَ قَدِ انْزَاحَتْ عَنْهُمُ النِّيرَانُ وَ بُعِّدَتْ عَنْهُمُ الْأَهْوَالُ وَ يَرِدُونَ الْجَنَّةَ غَانِمِينَ ظَافِرِينَ
Then Hamza-asws would take the spear in his-asws hand, and he-asws would place its end in the walls of the Fire forming a barrier between his-asws friends and their crossing to Paradise upon the Bridge, and he-asws would repel it to a distance – a travel distance of five hundred years. Then he-asws would be saying to his-asws friends, and those that used to love him-asws in the world, ‘Cross over!’ They would be crossing over the Bridge, securely, safely, and the Fires would have been removed from them and its horrors would be distanced from them, and they would be arriving to Paradise, victorious, successful’’.[162]

He-saww said: ‘I-saww said: ‘Yes’. He-as said: ‘You-saww cross by the Light of Allah-azwj, and Ali-asws will cross by your-saww light and your-saww light is from the Light of Allah-azwj, and your-saww community will cross by the light of Ali-asws from your-saww light. And one for whom Allah does not Make light to be for him, then there would be no light for him [24:40]’’.[163]

‘From Al-Sadiq-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws, from Ali-asws – and he continued the Hadeeth up to he-asws said: ‘I-asws will not cease standing upon the Bridge calling out and saying: ‘Lord-azwj!

From the book ‘Fazaail Al Shia’ of Al-Sadouq, by his chain, from Al Sakuny,
‘From Al-Sadiq-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The one of firmest of feet upon the Bridge from you all would be the one with the most intense of love for the People-asws of my-saww Household’’.[165]

‘From Abu Ja’far-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws having said: ‘The Prophet-saww said to Ali-asws: ‘Your-asws love will not be affirmed in the heart of a Momin person, so his foot will slip upon the Bridge, except a foot would be affirmed until Allah-azwj Enters him into Paradise by your-asws Love’’.[166]
18- م، تفسير الإمام عليه السلام الصِّرَاطُ الْمُسْتَقِيمُ صِرَاطَانِ صِرَاطٌ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ صِرَاطٌ فِي الْآخِرَةِ فَأَمَّا الصِّرَاطُ الْمُسْتَقِيمُ فِي الدُّنْيَا فَهُوَ مَا قَصُرَ مِنَ الْغُلُوِّ وَ ارْتَفَعَ عَنِ التَّقْصِيرِ وَ اسْتَقَامَ فَلَمْ يَعْدِلْ إِلَى شَيْءٍ مِنَ الْبَاطِلِ
‘Tafseer of the Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws)’ – And the Straight Path [1:6] – are two paths – a path in the world and a path in the Hereafter. As for the Straight Path in the world, so it is what is reduced from the lofty (exaggeration), and higher than the derogation – and the Straight, so it does not incline towards anything from the falsehood.
وَ أَمَّا الصِّرَاطُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ فَهُوَ طَرِيقُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ الَّذِي هُوَ مُسْتَقِيمٌ لَا يَعْدِلُونَ عَنِ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَى النَّارِ وَ لَا إِلَى غَيْرِ النَّارِ سِوَى الْجَنَّةِ
And as for the path in the Hereafter, it is the path (taken by the) Momineen to Paradise which is straight, not deviating away from Paradise to the Fire, nor to (anywhere) other than the Fire, besides Paradise’’.[167]
19- عد، العقائد اعتقادنا في الصراط أنه حق و أنه جسر جهنم و أن عليه ممر جميع الخلق قال الله عز و جل وَ إِنْ مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا وارِدُها كانَ عَلى رَبِّكَ حَتْماً مَقْضِيًّا و الصراط في وجه آخر اسم حجج الله فمن عرفهم في الدنيا و أطاعهم أعطاه الله جوازا على الصراط الذي هو جسر جهنم يوم القيامة
(Majlisi says), ‘Our belief regarding the Bridge is that it is true, and it is an archway of Hell, and that upon it would be passing the entirety of the creatures. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Says: And there is not one of you but shall pass over it. This was an Ordained Decree upon your Lord [19:71]. And the Bridge in another perspective is the name of the Divine Authorities of Allah-azwj. So, the one who recognises them-asws in the world and obeys them-asws, Allah-azwj would Give him a permit to cross over the Bridge which is an archway of Hell on the Day of Qiyamah. (P.S. – up to here is not a Hadeeth)
وَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص لِعَلِيٍّ ع يَا عَلِيُّ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ أَقْعُدُ أَنَا وَ أَنْتَ وَ جَبْرَئِيلُ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ فَلَا يَجُوزُ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ إِلَّا مَنْ كَانَتْ مَعَهُ بَرَاءَةٌ بِوَلَايَتِكَ
And the Prophet-saww said to Ali-asws: ‘O Ali-asws! When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, I-saww and you-asws and Jibraeel-as would be seated upon the Bridge, so none will (be able to) cross over the Bridge except one who has with him a freedom (from the Fire) by your-asws Wilayah’’.[168]
قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع أَنَا صِرَاطُ اللَّهِ الْمُسْتَقِيمُ وَ عُرْوَتُهُ الْوُثْقَى الَّتِي لَا انْفِصامَ لَها
Amir Al-Momineen-asws said: ‘I am the Straight Path and the Firmest Handhold which there is no crack for it’.
وَ جَاءَ الْخَبَرُ أَنَّهُ لَا يَعْبُرُ الصِّرَاطَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِلَّا مَنْ كَانَ مَعَهُ بَرَاءَةٌ مِنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع مِنَ النَّارِ
And the Hadeeth has come that no one will cross the Brdige on the Day of Qiyamah except the one who has with him a freedom pass from the Fire from Ali Bin Abu Talib-asws’.
وَ جَاءَ الْخَبَرُ بِأَنَّ الصِّرَاطَ أَدَقُّ مِنَ الشَّعْرَةِ وَ أَحَدُّ مِنَ السَّيْفِ عَلَى الْكَافِرِ
And the Hadeeth has come that the Bridge is thinner than the hair and sharper than the sword, upon the Kafir.
