So a man from Khaza’at said, ‘What is in it from the Rewards, O Rasool-Allah-saww?’
قال: لا يقرأها منافق أبدا ولا عبد في قلبه شك في الله عزوجل، والله ان الملائكة المقر بين ليقرؤنها منذ خلق الله السماوات والارض لا يفترون من قرائتها
He-saww said: ‘The hypocrite would not recite it ever, nor will the servant in whose heart is doubt regarding Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic. By Allah-azwj, the Angels of Proximity have been reciting it since Allah-azwj Created the skies and the earth, not having calmed down from reciting it.
وما من عبد يقرأها بليل الا بعث الله ملائكة يحفظونه في دينه ودنياه، ويدعون له بالمغفرة والرحمة، فان قرأها نهارا أعطى عليها من الثواب مثل ما أضاء عليها النهار وأظلم عليه الليل
And there is none from the servants who recites it at night except that Allah-azwj would Send the Angels to Protect him in his Religion and his world, and they will be calling for his Forgiveness and the Mercy. So if it is recited during the day, he would be Given from the Rewards similar to what is illuminated by the day and darkened by the night’.[6]

وباسناده إلى المنذر بن محمد ان أباه أخبره عن على بن موسى الرضا عن أبيه موسى بن جعفر عن جعفر بن محمد عن أبيه عن على بن الحسين عن أبيه عن على بن ابى طالب صلوات الله عليهم قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: ما من هدهد الا وفى جناحه مكتوب بالسريانية: آل محمد خير البرية
And by his chain going up too AL-Munzar Bin Muhammad, from his father, who has said:
‘Ali-asws Bin Musa Al-Reza-asws from his-asws father-asws Musa Bin Ja’far-asws, from Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws, from his-asws father-asws, from Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws, from his-asws father, from Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws having said; ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘There is none from the Hoopoe bird (Hud Hud) except that in its wings is inscribed in Assyrian (language), ‘The Family-asws of Muhammad-saww are the best of the Created beings (Khayr Al-Bariyya)’.[21]
احمد بن مهران عن محمد بن على عن فضيل بن عثمان عن طاهر قال: كنت قاعدا عند ابى جعفر فأقبل جعفر عليه السلام فقال أبو جعفر عليه السلام: هذا خير البرية
Ahmad Bin Mahran, from Muhammad Bin Ali, from Fazeyl Bin Usman, from Tahir who said,
‘I was seated in the presence of Abu Ja’far-asws, and Ja’far-asws came over. So Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘This one is the best of the Created beings (Khayr Al-Bariyya)’.[22]
The best of Created beings – Amir Al-Momineen-asws and his-asws Shias
و عنه، قال: أخبرنا أبو عبد الله أحمد بن عبدو، المعروف بابن الحاشر، قال: أخبرنا أبو الحسن علي بن محمد بن الزبير القرشي، قال: أخبرنا علي بن الحسن بن فضال، قال: أخبرنا العباس بن عامر، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن رزق، عن يحيى بن العلاء الرازي، عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام)، قال: «دخل علي (عليه السلام) على رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله)، و هو في بيت أم سلمة، فلما رآه، قال: كيف أنت يا علي إذا جمعت الأمم، و وضعت الموازين، و برز لعرض خلقه، و دعي الناس إلى ما لا بد منه؟
And from him, from Abu Abdullah Ahmad Bin Abdou well known as Ibn Al-Hashir, from Abu Al-Hassan Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Al-Zubeyr Al-Qureyshi, from Ali Bin AL-Hassan Bin Fazaal, from Al-Abbas Bin Aamir, from Ahmad Bin Rizq, from Yahya Bin Al-A’ala Al-Razy, who has said:
‘Abu Abdullah-asws said that Ali-asws came to the Rasool-Allah-azwj, and he-saww was in the House of Umm Salma-ra. When he-saww saw him-asws, he-saww said: ‘How will you (react), O Ali-asws, when the communities get together, and scales are placed, and they come out to the display of His-azwj creatures, and the people are called to what there is no escape from it?’
قال: فدمعت عين أمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام)، فقال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله): ما يبكيك يا علي، تدعى و الله أنت و شيعتك غرا محجلين، رواء مرويين، مبيضة وجوههم، و يدعى بعدوك مسودة وجوههم، أشقياء معذبين، أما سمعت إلى قول الله: إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَ عَمِلُوا الصَّالِحاتِ أُولئِكَ هُمْ خَيْرُ الْبَرِيَّةِ أنت و شيعتك
The eyes of Amir-Al-Momineen-asws shed tears, so Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘What makes you-asws weep, O Ali-asws? By Allah-azwj, you-asws and your-asws Shias would be Called with resplendent and with bright faces, and your-asws enemies would be Called with blackened faces, miserable, Tormented. Have you not heard the Words of Allah-azwj: Surely those who believe and are doing righteous deeds, those, they are the best of the Created beings [98:7] – you-asws and your-asws Shias.
و الذين كفروا و كذبوا بآياتنا أولئك هم شر البرية، عدوك يا علي
And those who commit Kufr and belie Our Signs [22:57], are your-asws enemies, O Ali-asws’.[23]
محمد بن العباس (رحمه الله)، عن أحمد بن الهيثم عن الحسن بن عبد الواحد، عن حسن بن حسين، عن يحيى بن مساور، عن إسماعيل بن زياد، عن إبراهيم بن مهاجر، عن يزيد بن شراحيل كاتب علي عليه السلام قال: سمعت عليا عليه السلام يقول: (حدثني رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله) وأنا مسنده إلى صدري وعائشة (عند أذني، فأصغت عائشة) لتسمع ما يقول
Muhammad Bin Al Abbas, from Ahmad Bin Al Haysam, from Al Hassan Bin Abdul Wahid, from Hassan Bin Husayn, from Yahya Bin Masawir, from ismail Bin Ziyad, from Ibrahim Bin Muhajif,
‘From Yazeed Bin Sharaheel, scribe of Ali-asws who said, I heard Ali-asws saying: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww narrated to me-asws, and I-asws was his-asws support upon my-asws chest, and Ayesha was in my-asws hearing range, and she screamed at what she heard what he-saww was saying.
فقال: أي أخي ألم تسمع قول الله عزوجل (إن الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات أولئك هم خير البرية) [ هم ] أنت وشيعتك، وموعدي وموعدكم الحوض، إذا جثت الامم تدعون غرا محجلين، شباعا مرويين
He-saww said: ‘Yes, my-saww brother-asws! Did you-asws not hear the Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: Surely those who believe and are doing righteous deeds, those, they are the best of the Created beings [98:7]? They are you-asws and your-asws Shias, and my-saww appointment with you all is at the Fountain, when the communities would be Called. They would be with bright and youthful resplendent faces’’.[24]
The best of Created beings (after Infallibles) – The Shias
عنه، عن يعقوب بن يزيد، عن بعض الكوفيين، عن عنبسة، عن جابر، عن ابي جعفر عليه السلام في قول الله تعالى ” الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات اولئك هم خير البرية ” قال: هم شيعتنا أهل البيت
From him, from Yaqoub Bin Yazeed, from one of the Kufians, from Anbasat, from Jabir,
(It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far-asws regarding the Words of Allah-azwj: Surely those who believe and are doing righteous deeds, those, they are the best of the Created beings [98:7]. He-asws said: ‘They are our-asws Shias of the People-asws of the Household’.[25]
أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ التَّيْمِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْفُضَيْلِ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) يَقُولُ إِذَا قَالَ الْمُؤْمِنُ لِأَخِيهِ أُفٍّ خَرَجَ مِنْ وَلَايَتِهِ وَ إِذَا قَالَ أَنْتَ عَدُوِّي كَفَرَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مِنْ أَحَدٍ عَمَلًا فِي تَثْرِيبٍ عَلَى مُؤْمِنٍ نَصِيحَةً وَ لَا يَقْبَلُ مِنْ مُؤْمِنٍ عَمَلًا وَ هُوَ يُضْمِرُ فِي قَلْبِهِ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِ سُوءاً
Ahmad Bin Muhammad bin Ahmad, from Ali Bin Al-Hasan Al-Taymi, from Muhammad Bin Abdullah, from Zurara, from Muhammad Bin Al-Fazeyl, from Abu Hamza who said:
‘I heard Abu Abdullah-asws saying: ‘When the Momin say to his brother, ‘Uff!’ he comes out from his wilayah. If he says, ‘You are my enemy’, one of the two has committed Kufr, because Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic does not Accept the deeds from anyone during the reproach of a Momin, and does not Accept from a Momin any deeds while he harbours evil in his heart against a Momin.
لَوْ كُشِفَ الْغِطَاءُ عَنِ النَّاسِ فَنَظَرُوا إِلَى وَصْلِ مَا بَيْنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ بَيْنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ خَضَعَتْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ رِقَابُهُمْ وَ تَسَهَّلَتْ لَهُمْ أُمُورُهُمْ وَ لَانَتْ لَهُمْ طَاعَتُهُمْ وَ لَوْ نَظَرُوا إِلَى مَرْدُودِ الْأَعْمَالِ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَقَالُوا مَا يَتَقَبَّلُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مِنْ أَحَدٍ عَمَلًا
If the covering is Lifted from the people, so they enabled to see to the Means of what is between Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic and the Momin. Their necks would become submissive to the Momineen, and their matters would become easier for them and they would be obedient to them. And if they were to look at the deeds rejected by Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, they would say, ‘Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic does not Accept the deeds from anybody’.
وَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ لِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الشِّيعَةِ أَنْتُمُ الطَّيِّبُونَ وَ نِسَاؤُكُمُ الطَّيِّبَاتُ كُلُّ مُؤْمِنَةٍ حَوْرَاءُ عَيْنَاءُ وَ كُلُّ مُؤْمِنٍ صِدِّيقٌ
And I (the narrator) heard him-asws say to a man from the Shias: ‘You all are the good ones, and your women are the good ones. Every Momina is a beautiful Hourie, and every Momin is a truthful one’.
قَالَ وَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ شِيعَتُنَا أَقْرَبُ الْخَلْقِ مِنْ عَرْشِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بَعْدَنَا وَ مَا مِنْ شِيعَتِنَا أَحَدٌ يَقُومُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ إِلَّا اكْتَنَفَتْهُ فِيهَا عَدَدَ مَنْ خَالَفَهُ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَيْهِ جَمَاعَةً حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ وَ إِنَّ الصَّائِمَ مِنْكُمْ لَيَرْتَعُ فِي رِيَاضِ الْجَنَّةِ تَدْعُو لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ حَتَّى يُفْطِرَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘And I heard him-asws say: ‘Our-asws Shias would be the closest of the creatures to the Throne of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic on the Day of Judgement after us-asws. And there is no one from our-asws Shias who stand to pray Salat except that the number of Angels equal to the ones opposed to him pray for him in congregation for him until he is free from his Salat. And the one from among you who Fasts will be enjoying in the Gardens of the Paradise, and the Angels prepare it for him until he breaks the Fast’.
وَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ أَنْتُمْ أَهْلُ تَحِيَّةِ اللَّهِ بِسَلَامِهِ وَ أَهْلُ أُثْرَةِ اللَّهِ بِرَحْمَتِهِ وَ أَهْلُ تَوْفِيقِ اللَّهِ بِعِصْمَتِهِ وَ أَهْلُ دَعْوَةِ اللَّهِ بِطَاعَتِهِ
And I (the narrator) heard him-asws say: ‘You (Shiahs) are the people Greeted by the Greetings of Allah-azwj, and the people Impacted by the Mercy of Allah-azwj, and the people Guided by the Protection of Allah-azwj, and the people Invited by Allah-azwj for being obedient to Him-azwj.
لَا حِسَابٌ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ لَا خَوْفٌ وَ لَا حُزْنٌ أَنْتُمْ لِلْجَنَّةِ وَ الْجَنَّةُ لَكُمْ أَسْمَاؤُكُمْ عِنْدَنَا الصَّالِحُونَ وَ الْمُصْلِحُونَ وَ أَنْتُمْ أَهْلُ الرِّضَا عَنِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِرِضَاهُ عَنْكُمْ وَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ إِخْوَانُكُمْ فِي الْخَيْرِ فَإِذَا جُهِدْتُمُ ادْعُوا وَ إِذَا غَفَلْتُمُ اجْهَدُوا
There is no Accounting for you (Shiah), and no fear, and no grief. You are all for the Paradise and the Paradise is for you all. Your names (titles) in our-asws presence are, ‘the righteous’, and ‘the reformers’. And you are the people of the Pleasure of Allah-azwj, Him-azwj being Pleased with you, and the Angels are your brothers in the good. So if you are striving, they supplicate for you, and if you are in neglect, they strive for you.
وَ أَنْتُمْ خَيْرُ الْبَرِيَّةِ دِيَارُكُمْ لَكُمْ جَنَّةٌ وَ قُبُورُكُمْ لَكُمْ جَنَّةٌ لِلْجَنَّةِ خُلِقْتُمْ وَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ نَعِيمُكُمْ وَ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ تَصِيرُونَ
And you are the best of the created beings (Khayr Al-Bariyya). Your houses are gardens for your (living ones), and the graves are the garden for your (deceased). It is for the Paradise that you have been created, and it is in the Paradise that you will be Favoured by, and it is to the Paradise that you are travelling to’.[26]
أحمد بن محمد بن خالد، عن يعقوب بن يزيد، عن بعض الكوفيين، عن عنبسة، عن جابر، عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام)، في قوله تعالى: إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَ عَمِلُوا الصَّالِحاتِ أُولئِكَ هُمْ خَيْرُ الْبَرِيَّةِ، قال: «هم شيعتنا أهل البيت

‘Abu Ja’far-asws regarding the Words of the Mighty and Majestic: Surely those who believe and are doing righteous deeds, those, they are the best of the Created beings [98:7], he-asws said: ‘The ones who believe in Allah-azwj, and in His-azwj Rasool-saww, and in the Masters-asws of the Command (Ul Al-Amr) and obey them-asws in whatever they-asws command them to, so that is the Eman and the righteous deeds’.[28]
VERSE 8
جَزَاؤُهُمْ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ جَنَّاتُ عَدْنٍ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا ۖ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا عَنْهُ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ لِمَنْ خَشِيَ رَبَّهُ {8}
Their Recompense in the Presence of their Lord are Gardens of Eden, the rivers flowing beneath these, abiding therein forever – Allah being Pleased with them, and they being pleased with Him. That is for one who fears his Lord [98:8]
شرف الدين النجفي، قال: روى محمد بن خالد البرقي مرفوعا، عن عمرو بن شمر، عن جابر ابن يزيد، عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام)، في قوله عز و جل: و قال: قوله: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَ رَضُوا عَنْهُ، «الله راض عن المؤمن في الدنيا و الآخرة، و المؤمن و إن كان راضيا عن الله فإن في قلبه ما فيه، لما يرى في هذه الدنيا من التمحيص
Sharaf Al-Deen Najafy, from Muhammad Bin Khalid Al-Barqy with an unbroken chain from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir Bin Yazeed, who says:
‘Abu Ja’far-asws regarding the Words of the Mighty and Majestic: Allah being Pleased from them, and they being pleased from Him [98:8]: ‘Allah-azwj is Pleased from the Momin in the world and the Hereafter, and the Momin, if he was pleased from Allah-azwj, then in his heart would be what is in it, when he sees the in this world scrutinising.
فإذا عاين الثواب يوم القيامة رضي عن الله الحق حق الرضا، و هو قوله: وَ رَضُوا عَنْهُ
Then when he sees the Rewards on the Day of Judgment, he would be pleased from Allah-azwj, truthfully as is the right of being pleased, and these are the Words of Allah-azwj and they being pleased from Him [98:8].
و قوله: ذلِكَ لِمَنْ خَشِيَ رَبَّهُ أي أطاع ربه
And his-azwj Words: That is for one who fears his Lord [98:8] – i.e., is obedient to his Lord‑azwj’’.[29]
