بصائر الدرجات مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَبَلَةَ عَنْ دَاوُدَ الرَّقِّيِّ عَنِ الثُّمَالِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الْحِجَازِ قَالَ قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص خَتَمَ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ نَبِيٍّ وَ أَرْبَعَةً وَ عِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ نَبِيٍّ وَ خَتَمْتُ أَنَا مِائَةَ أَلْفِ وَصِيٍّ وَ أَرْبَعَةً وَ عِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ وَصِيٍّ وَ كُلِّفْتُ مَا تُكُلِّفَ الْأَوْصِيَاءُ قَبْلِي وَ اللَّهُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ
(The book) ‘Basaair Al Darajaat’ – Muhammad Bin Al-Husayn, from Abdullah Bin Jabalah, from Dawood Al Raqqy, from Al Sumali, from Abu Al Hijaz who said,
Amir Al-Momineen-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww ‘خَتَمَ’ ended one hundred and twenty-four thousand Prophets–as, and I-asws ended one hundred and twenty-four thousand successors–as, and I-asws encumbered and the successors–as before me-asws were not encumbered, and Allah is the Helper [12:18].
فَإِنَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص قَالَ فِي مَرَضِهِ لَسْتُ أَخَافُ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ تَضِلَّ بَعْدَ الْهُدَى وَ لَكِنْ أَخَافُ عَلَيْكَ فُسَّاقَ قُرَيْشٍ وَ عَادِيَتَهُمْ
And Rasool-Allah-saww said during his-saww illness: ‘I-asws am not fearful upon you-asws that you-asws might stray after me-saww, but I-saww fear upon you-asws the mischief of Quraysh, and their habits.
حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَ نِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ عَلَى أَنَّ ثُلُثَيِ الْقُرْآنِ فِينَا وَ فِي شِيعَتِنَا فَمَا كَانَ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَلَنَا وَ لِشِيعَتِنَا وَ ثُلُثَ الْبَاقِي أَشْرَكْنَا فِيهِ النَّاسَ فَمَا كَانَ مِنْ شَرٍّ فَلِعَدُوِّنَا
Allah is Sufficient for us and the most excellent Protector’ [3:173] upon that a third of the Quran is regarding us-asws and regarding our-asws Shias. So, whatever was from good, it is for us-asws and for our-asws Shias; and a third of the remainder, the people are our-asws participants in it. So, whatever was in it of evil, it is for our-asws enemies’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ هَلْ يَسْتَوِي الَّذِينَ يَعْلَمُونَ وَ الَّذِينَ لا يَعْلَمُونَ إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ فَنَحْنُ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَ شِيعَتُنَا أُولُوا الْأَلْبابِ وَ الَّذِينَ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ عَدُوُّنَا وَ شِيعَتُنَا هُمُ الْمُهْتَدُونَ
Then He-azwj Said: ‘‘Are they equal, those who do not know and those do know?’ [39:9] – up to the end of the Verse. So, we-asws People-asws of the Household (are the ones who know), and our-asws Shias are the ones of understanding, and those who do not know are our-asws enemies, and our-asws Shias, they are the guided ones’.[1]
