    بسم هللا الرحمن الرحيم الحمد هلل رب العالمين، وصلى هللا على سيدنا محمد وآله الطاهرين، وسلم تسليما.

    Chapter 97 – The reason for the recognition and ingratitude

    أبى رحمه هللا قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد هللا، عن محمد بن عيسى، عن الحسن بن علي بن فضال، عن ابن بكير، عن واشهدهم على زرارة قال: سألت أبا جعفر " ع " عن قول هللا عزوجل: )وإذ أخذ ربك من بني آدم من ظهورهم ذريتهم

    انفسهم ألست بربكم؟ قالوا: بلى( قال ثبتت المعرفة ونسوا الموقت وسيذكرونه يوما،، ولوال ذلك لم يدر أحد من خالقه وال من رازقه.

    My father said, ‘Sa’ad Bin Abdullah narrated to us, from Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al Hassan Bin Ali Bin Fazaal, from Ibn Bakeyr, from Zarara who said,

    ‘I asked Abu Ja’farasws about the Words of Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic [7:172] And when your Lord brought forth from the Children of Adam, from their backs, their descendants, and made them testify against their own souls: Am I not your Lord? They said: Yes! Heasws said: ‘The recognition was affirmed, and it had been forgotten temporarily, and they would be remembering it one day, and if it were not for that, no one would realise Who Created him nor Who Sustains him’.1

    حدثنا محمد بن موسى بن المتوكل قال: حدثنا عبد هللا بن جعفر الحميري عن احمد بن محمد، عن الحسن بن محبوب، عن عبد الرحمان بن كثير، عن داود الرقى عن أبى عبد هللا " ع " قال: لما أراد هللا عزوجل ان يخلق الخلق خلقهم

    سول هللا صلى هللا عليه وآله وأمير المؤمنين واالئمة صلوات ونشرهم بين يديه ثم قال لهم من ربكم؟ فاول من نطق ر عليهم أجمعين فقالوا: أنت ربنا،

    Muhammad Bin Musa Bin Mutawakkil narrated to us, from Abdullah Bin Ja’far Al Humeyri, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Hassan Bin Mahboub, from Abdul Rahman Bin Kaseer, from Dawood Al Raqy,

    Abu Abdullahasws has said: ‘When Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Intended to Create the creatures, Created them, and Displayed them in front of Himazwj, then Said to them: “Who is your Lordazwj?” So the first ones to speak were Rasool-Allahsaww and Amir Al-Momineenasws, and the Imamsasws. So theyasws said: ‘Youazwj are ourasws Lordazwj!’

    فحملهم العلم والدين، ثم قال للمالئكة هؤالء حملة ديني وعلمي وامنائي في خلقي وهم المسئولون، ثم قيل لبني آدم أقروا هلل بالربوبية ولهؤالء النفر بالطاعة والوالية فقالوا نعم ربنا اقررنا، فقال هللا جل جالله للمالئكة اشهدوا، فقالت المالئكة

    شهدنا على ان ال يقولوا غدا إنا كنا عن هذا غافلين أو يقولوا إنما أشرك آباؤنا من قبل وكنا ذرية من بعدهم أفتهلكنا بما فعل المبطلون، يا داود، االنبياء مؤكدة عليهم في الميثاق.

    Thus, Allahazwj Blessed themasws with the Knowledge and the Religion, then Said to the Angels: “Theyasws are carrying Myazwj Religion, and Myazwj Knowledge, and Myazwj Trustees among Myazwj creatures, and theyasws would be Questioned”. Then Allahazwj Said to the Children of Adamas: ‘Do you all accept Allahazwj for the Lordship, and for

    1 Al Illal Al Sharaie – V 1 Ch 97 H 1

    these persons for the obedience and the Wilayah?’ So they said, ‘Yes, our Lordazwj, we accept!’ So Allahazwj Mighty is Hisazwj Majesty Said to the Angels: “Bear witness upon that lest tomorrow they say Surely, we were heedless of this [7:173] Or you should say: But rather, only our fathers associated others (with Allah) before, and we were an offspring after them: Will You then Destroy us for deeds of the wrong-doers?’ O Dawood! The Prophetsas confirmed against them with regards to the Covenant’.2

    أبى رحمه هللا قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد هللا، عن احمد بن محمد، عن محمد ابن اسماعيل بن بزيغ، عن صالح بن عقبة، عن عبد هللا بن محمد الجعفي وعقبة جميعا عن أبى جعفر " ع " قال: ان هللا عزوجل خلق الخلق فخلق من أحب مما

    غض مما أبغض وكان ما أبغض أن خلقه من طينة النار، ثم أحب وكان ما أحب ان خلقه من طينة الجنة، وخلق من أببعثهم في الظالل، فقلت وأي شئ الظالل؟ فقال ألم ترإلى ظلك في الشمس شئ وليس بشئ، ثم بعث منهم النبيين فدعوهم

    إلى االقرار باهلل وهو قوله عزوجل: )ولئن سئلتهم من خلقهم ليقولن هللا(

    My father said, ‘Sa’ad Bin Abdullah narrated to us, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Ibn Ismail Bin Bazi’e, from Salih Bin Uqba, from Abdullah Bin Muhammad Al Ju’fy and Uqba altogether,

    Abu Ja’farasws has said: ‘Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Created the creatures, so Allahazwj Created the ones Heazwj Loved from what Heazwj Loved, and what Heazwj Loved was the clay of the Paradise. And Heazwj Created the one Heazwj Hated from what Heazwj Hated, that Heazwj Created him from the clay of the Fire, then Sent them into the shadows’. So I said, ‘And which thing is the shadow?’ So heasws said: ‘Have you not seen your own shadow in the sun, it is a thing (an image) but it is not something (on its own)? Then Allahazwj Sent the Prophetsas from them, so theyas invited them (the people) to the acceptance of Allahazwj and these are the Words of the Mighty and Majestic [43:87] And if you should ask them who created them, they would certainly say: Allah.

    ثم دعوهم إلى االقرار بالنبيين فأنكر بعض وأقر بعض ثم دعوهم إلى واليتنا فاقر بها وهللا من أحب وانكرها من أبغض وهو قوله عزوجل: )ما كانوا ليؤمنوا بما كذبوا به من قبل( ثم قال أبو جعفر " ع ": كان التكذيب ثم.

    Then Allahazwj invited them to the acceptance of the Prophetsas. So some of them rejected and some of them accepted. Then invited them to ourasws Wilayah, so by Allahazwj, the only ones who were Beloved (to Allahazwj) accepted it, and the ones who were Hated, rejected it. And these are the Words of the Mighty and Majestic [10:74] but they would not believe in what they had belied before’. Then Abu Ja’farasws said: ‘The belying is from then’.3

    علة احتجاب هللا جل جالله عن خلقه( - 78)باب

    Chapter 98 – The reason for the Veiling of Allahazwj Mighty is Hisazwj Majesty, from Hisazwj creatures

    حدثنا الحسين بن احمد، عن أبيه قال: حدثنا محمد بن بندار، عن محمد ابن علي، عن محمد بن عبد هللا الخراساني خادم الرضا قال: قال بعض الزنادقة البي الحسن " ع ": لم احتجب هللا؟ فقال أبو الحسن عليه السالم: ان الحجاب عن الخلق

    ذنوبهم فاما هو فال تخفى عليه خافية في آناء الليل والنهار، قال فلم، ال تدركه حاسة البصر؟ قال للفرق بينه وبين لكثرة خلقه الذين تدركهم حاسة االبصار ثم هو أجل من أن تدركه االبصار أو يحيط به وهم أو يضبطه عقل،

    Al Husayn Bin Ahmad, from his father, from Muhammad Bin Bandaar, from Muhammad Ibn Ali, from Muhammad Bin Abdullah

    Al-Khurasany, a servant of Al-Rezaas, said, ‘One of the Atheists said to Abu Al-Hassanasws, ‘Why is Allahazwj Veiled?’ So Abu Al-Hassanasws said: ‘The Veil is from the creatures due to the frequency of their sins. Heazwj is not Concealed from them out of fear, neither day or the night’. He said, ‘So why can’t the vision visualise Himazwj?’ Heasws said: ‘The difference between Himazwj and Hisazwj creatures to be able to see Himazwj by the sense of the vision. Heazwj is Higher than to be Visualised by the vision, or imagined by the imaginations, or to be grasped by the intellect’.

    ل قال: فحده لي؟ قال انه ال يحد، قال لم؟ قال: النه كل محدود منتاه إلى حد، فإذا احتمل التحديد احتمل الزيادة، وإذا احتم الزيادة احتمل النقصان، فهو غير محدود وال متزايد وال متجزئ وال متوهم.

    He said, ‘So (define) Hisazwj limits to me’. Heasws said: ‘Heazwj has no limits’. He said, ‘Why not?’ Heasws said: ‘Because Hisazwj every limit is limited to a certain extent, so if the limitation is defined, the increase is defined, and if the increase is defined, the deficiency is defined. Thus Heazwj is without limitations. Neither can there be an increase, nor can Heazwj be exceeded, nor imagined’.4

    اخبرني علي بن حاتم قال: حدثنا القاسم بن محمد قال: حدثنا حمدان بن الحسين، عن الحسين بن الوليد، عن عبد هللا بن سنان، عن أبى حمزة الثمالي قال: قلت لعلي بن الحسين عليهما السالم الي علة حجب هللا عزوجل الخلق عن نفسه؟ قال:

    تبارك وتعالى بناهم بنية علي الجهل فلو انهم كانوا ينظرون هللا عزوجل لما كانوا بالذي يهابونه وال يعظمونه، الن هللانظير ذلك أحدكم إذا نظر إلى بيت هللا الحرام أول مرة عظمه فإذا آتت عليه أيام وهو يراه ال يكاد أن ينظر إليه إذا مر به

    وال يعظمه ذلك التعظيم.

    Ali Bin Hatim informed me, from Al Qasim Bin Muhammad, from Hamdan Bin Al Husayn, from Al Husayn Bin Al Waleed, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, from Abu Hamza Al Sumaly who said,

    ‘I said to Aliasws Bin Al-Husaynasws, ‘For which reason has Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Veiled Himselfazwj from the creatures?’ Heasws said: ‘Because Allahazwj Blessed and High Built their foundations upon the ignorance. So, if they had been able to see Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic, they would have neither Revered (Honoured) Himazwj nor Magnified Himazwj. That is like one of you looking at the House of Allahazwj (Kabah) for the first time, he reveres it, but if he comes to it every day and he sees it, or even barely sees it when he passes by it, he would not revere it with that reverence (which he had the first time)’.5

    Chapter 99 – Reason for the affirmation of the Prophetsas and the Mursilsas, and reason for the difference in theiras evidences (Miracles)

    حدثنا محمد بن الحسن قال: حدثنا محمد بن الحسن الصفار، عن احمد ابن محمد بن عيسى، عن الحسين بن علي، عن عمرو بن أبى المقدام، عن اسحاق بن غالب، عن أبى عبد هللا " ع " في كالم له يقول فيه: الحمد هلل المتحجب بالنور دون

    ويحيى من حيى عن بينة وليعقل ليكون له الحجة البالغة وابتعث فيهم النبيين مبشرين ومنذرين ليهلك من هلك عن بينة العباد، عن ربهم ما جهلوا وعرفوه بربوبيته بعدما أنكروا، ويوحدوه بااللهية بعد ماعندوا.

    Muhammad Bin Al Hassan narrated to us, from Muhammad Bin Al Hassan Al Asffar, from Ahmad Ibn Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al Husayn Bin Ali, from Amro Bin Abu Al Maqdam, from Is’haq Bin Ghalib,

    From Abu Abdullahasws in a speech of hisasws, saying in it: ‘The Praise is for Allahazwj, the Veiled by the Light besides Hisazwj creatures, in the high horizons, and the lofty splendour, and the Grand King, Exalted above everything, and near to everything. So Hisazwj Manifestation to Hisazwj creatures is from without being seen, and Heazwj Sees, and Heazwj is at the Exalted Station. Thus, Heazwj Loves the Specialisation in the Oneness when Heazwj is Veiled by Hisazwj Light, and Hisazwj Towering Elevation and Veiling from Hisazwj creatures in order for the Evident Proof to be for Himazwj. And Heazwj Established the Prophetsas, and the Heralds of good news, and warners among them, so that the destroyed one would be destroyed by the proofs, and the revived one would be revived by the proof and it would make sense to the servants, from their Lordazwj, what they were ignorant of, and they would recognise Himazwj by Hisazwj Lordship after what they had denied, and they would accept Hisazwj Oneness after having turned away from it’.6

    حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن احمد بن الوليد رضى هللا عنه قال: حدثنا محمد بن الحسن الصفار، عن احمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن الحسين بن سعيد، عن النضر بن سويد، عن عبد هللا بن سنان قال: سئل أبو عبد هللا " ع " عن قول هللا

    ن مختلفين إال من رحم ربك( ولذلك خلقهم فقال: كانوا أمة عزوجل: )ولو شاء ربك لجعل الناس أمة واحدة وال يزالو واحدة فبعث هللا النبيين ليتخذ عليهم الحجة

    Muhammad Bin Al Hassan Bin Ahmad Bin Al Waleed narrated to us, from Muhamad Bin Al Hassan Al Saffar, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Al Nazar Bin Suweyd, from Abdullah Bin Sinan who said,

    ‘Abu Abdullahasws was asked about the Words of Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic [11:118] And if your Lord had so Desired it, He would have Made people as a single nation, and they will not stop differing [11:119] Except for those on whom your Lord has Mercy; and it is for that did He Create them. So heasws said: ‘They were one community, so Allahazwj Sent the Prophetsasws in order to take the argument against them’.7

    حدثنا حمزة بن محمد العلوي قال: أخبرني علي بن ابراهيم، عن أبيه، عن العباس بن عمرو الفقيمي، عن هشام بن الحكم، عن أبى عبد هللا " ع " انه قال للزنديق الذي سأله من أين أثبت الرسل واالنبياء فقال: انا لما أثبتنا ان لنا خالقا صانعا

    ذلك الصانع حكيما متعاليا لم يجز أن يشاهده خلقه ويالمسوه ويباشرهم ويباشروه متعاليا عنا وعن جميع ما خلق وكان ويحاجهم ويحاجوه

    Hamza Bin Muhammad Al Alawy narrated to us, from Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Al Abbas Bin Amro Al Faqeymi, from Hisham Bin Al Hakam,

    Abu Abdullahasws has said to the atheist who asked himasws, from where would heasws be proving the Mursilsas and the Prophetsas, so heasws said: ‘When weasws have proved that there is a Creator for us, a Maker, Exalted from us, and for all that Heazwj Created, and that Maker is Wise, Exalted, not permissible for the creatures to see

    Himazwj and to feel Himazwj, and Heazwj Holds discussion with them and they hold discussions with Himazwj, and Heazwj Argues with them and they argue with Himazwj.

    ثبت ان له سفراء في خلقه يعبرون عنه إلى خلقه وعباده ويدلونهم على مصالحهم ومنافعهم وما به بقائهم وفي تركه فنائهم

    It is thereby proved that there are ambassadors for Himazwj among Hisazwj creatures, bringing Messages from Himazwj to Hisazwj creatures and Hisazwj servants, and pointing them towards their own correctness, and their benefits, and what their remaining would be due to, and what destruction would be for them in its neglect.

    نبياء وصفوته من خلقه حكماء فثبت اآلمرون والناهون عن الحكيم العليم في خلقه والمعبرون عنه عزوجل وهم اال مؤدبون بالحكمة مبعوثون بها غير مشاركين للناس في شئ من أحوالهم، مؤيدين من عند الحكيم العليم بالحكمة،

    So, it is proved that the enjoiners and the forbidders (coming) from the Wise, the All-Knowledgeable, are among Hisazwj creatures, and the bringers of the Messages from Himazwj, the Mighty and Majestic, and theyas are the Prophetsas, and Hisazwj Elites from Hisazwj creatures, educating with the wisdom, having Sent with it, not association with the people in anything from their conditions, teaching from the Presence of the All-Wise, the All-Knowing, with the wisdom.

    ثم ثبت ذلك في كل دهر وزمان ما أتت به الرسل واالنبياء من الداليل والبراهين لكيال تخلو أرض هللا من حجة يكون معه علم على صدق مقالته وجواز عدالته.

    Then that is affirmed in every time period and era, what the Rasoolsas and the Prophetsas came with, from the evidences and the proofs, so that the earth of Allahazwj would not be devoid of a Proof to be with it, a knower of the truthfulness of Hisazwj Speech and having Reasons for Hisazwj Justice’.8

    حدثنا علي بن احمد رحمه هللا قال: حدثنا محمد بن أبى عبد هللا الكوفي عن موسى بن عمران، عن عمه الحسين بن يزيد، عن علي بن أبى حمزة، عن أبى بصير عن أبى عبد هللا " ع " أنه سأله رجل فقال: الي شئ بعث هللا االنبياء والرسل إلى

    فقال لئال يكون للناس على هللا حجة من بعد الرسل ولئال يقولوا ما جائنا من بشير وال نذير وليكون حجة هللا عليهم الناس أال تسمع هللا عزوجل يقول: )حكاية عن خزنة جهنم واحتجاجهم على أهل النار باالنبياء والرسل )ألم يأتكم نذير قالوا بلى

    من شئ ان انتم إال في ضالل كبير(.قد جائنا نذير فكذبنا وقلنا ما نزل هللا

    Ali Bin Ahmad narrated to us, from Muhammad Bin Abu Abdullah Al Kufy, from Musa Bin Imran, from his uncle Al Husayn Bin Yazeed, from Ali Bin Abu Hamza, from Abu Baseer,

    (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullahasws having been asked by a man, so he said, ‘For which thing did Allahazwj Send the Prophetsas and the Mursilsas to the people?’ So heasws said: ‘So that there would not be an argument for the people against Allahazwj from after the Apostles (having been Sent) that perhaps they would be saying, ‘There did not come to us any Herald, nor a warner’, and it would become an Argument of Allahazwj against them. Have you not heard Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Saying, Relating from the keeper of Hell, and the pleading of the inhabitants of the Fire, regarding the Prophetsas and the Rasoolsas [67:8] Did there not come to you a warner? [67:9] They shall say: Yes! Indeed there came to us a warner,

    but we rejected (him) and said: Allah has not Revealed anything, you are only in a great error’.9

    أبى رحمه هللا قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد هللا عن احمد بن أبى عبد هللا عن أبيه، عن غير واحد، عن الحسين بن نعيم الصحاف قال: قلت البي عبد هللا عليه السالم أيكون الرجل مؤمنا قد ثبت له االيمان ينقله هللا بعد االيمان ألى الكفر؟ قال

    العدل وإنما بعث الرسل ليدعوا الناس إلى االيمان باهلل وال يدعوا أحد إلى الكفر، قلت فيكون الرجل كافرا قد ان هللا هو ثبت له الكفر عند هللا فينقله هللا بعد ذلك من الكفر إلى االيمان؟ قال: ان هللا عزوجل خلق الناس على الفطرة التي فطرهم

    كفرا بجحود ثم ابتعت هللا الرسل إليهم يدعونهم إلى االيمان باهلل حجة هللا عليهم هللا عليها ال يعرفون أيمانا بشريعة وال فمنهم من هداه هللا ومنهم من لم يهده.

    My father said, ‘Sa’ad Bin Abdullah narrated to us, from Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah, from his father, from someone else, from Al Husayn Bin Naeem Al Sahaaf who said,

    ‘I said to Abu Abdullahasws, ‘Can it happen that the Believing man for whom the belief has been affirmed for, Allahazwj would Turn him to the disbelief after the belief?’ Heasws said: ‘Verily, Allahazwj, Heazwj is Just. But rather, Heazwj Sent the Rasoolsas to invite the people to the belief in Allahazwj, and did not invite anyone to the disbelief’. I said, ‘So, can it happen than the disbelieving man, for whom the disbelief has been affirmed for with Allahazwj, so Allahazwj would Turn him, after that, from the disbelief to the belief?’ Heasws said: ‘Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Created the people upon the nature which Allahazwj has Natured them upon that they neither recognised the belief with a Law, nor disbelief with ingratitude. Then Allahazwj Sent the Rasoolsas to them inviting them to the belief in Allahazwj, as an Argument of Allahazwj against them. Thus, among them was one whom Allahazwj Guided, and among them was one whom Allahazwj did not Guide’.10

    مد بن مسرور رحمه هللا قال حدثنا الحسين بن محمد بن علي قال حدثنا أبو عبد هللا السياري عن أبى حدثنا جعفر بن محيعقوب البغدادي قال: قال ابن السكيت البي الحسن الرضا " ع " لماذا بعث هللا عزوجل موسى بن عمران بالعصا ويده

    وآله بالكالم والخطب البيضاء وآلة السحر وبعث عيسى بالطب وبعث محمدا صلى هللا عليه

    Ja’far Bin Muhammad Bin Masroor narrated to us, from Al Husayn Bin Muhammad Bin Ali, from Abu Abdullah Al Sayari, from Abu Yaqoub Al Baghdady who said,

    ‘Ibn Al-Sakeet said to Abu Al-Hassan Al-Rezaasws, ‘Why did Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Send Musaas Bin Imranas with the (miracles of) the staff, and the white hand, and Miracles of the magic, and Sent Isaas with the medicine, and Sent Muhammadas with the ‘بالكالم والخطب’ speech and the sermons?’

    هللا تبارك وتعالى لما بعث موسى عليه السالم كان االغلب على أهل عصره السحر فأتاهم من فقال: أبو الحسن " ع " ان عند هللا عزوجل بما لم يكن في وسع القوم مثله وبما أبطل به سحرهم واثبت به الحجة عليهم

    Chapter 101 – The reason due to which the Determined Ones (Ul Al Azam) were named as ‘The Determined Ones’ (Ul Al Azam)

    My father, from Sa’ad Bin Abdullah Bin Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ali Ibn Hakam, from Al Mufazzal Bin Salih Bin Jabir Bin Yazeed,

    (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’farasws regarding the Words of Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic [20:115] And We had Given a Covenant to Adam before, but he forgot; and We did not find determination in him. Heasws said: ‘Covenanted with himas in regards to Muhammadsaww and the Imamsasws from after himsaww, and there was no determination for himsaww regarding themasws that theyasws are like this. But rather, the Determined Ones (Ul Al-Azam) have been named as such because a Covenant was Taken with them in regards to Muhammadsaww and the successorsasws after himsaww, and Al-Mahdiasws, and hisasws way, so theyas unanimously agreed that, that is like that, and the acceptance by it’.13

    Muhammad Bin Ibrahim Bin Is’haq narrated to us, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Saeed Al Hamdany, from Ali Bin Al Hassan Bin Fazaal, from his father,

    حدثنا محمد بن إبراهيم بن اسحاق الطالقاني رضى هللا عنهم قال حدثنا احمد بن محمد بن سعيد الهمداني قال حدثنا علي بن الحسن بن فضال عن أبيه عن أبى الحسن الرضا " ع " قال: انما سمى اولوا العزم اولى العزم النهم كانوا أصحاب العزايم والشرايع وذلك ان كل نبي كان بعد نوح " ع " كان على شريعته ومنهاجه وتابعا لكتابه إلى زمان إبراهيم الخليل

    Abu Al-Hassan Al-Rezaasws has said: ‘But rather, the Determined Ones (Ul Al-Azam) have been named as ‘The Determined Ones’ (Ul Al-Azam), because they used to be the owners of the Resolutions and the Law, and that is that every Prophetsaww who was after Noahas was upon hisas Law and hisas Manifesto and the follower of hisas Book up until the era of Ibrahim the Friendas.

    وكل نبي كان في أيام إبراهيم وبعده كان على شريعة إبراهيم ومنهاجه وتابعا لكتابه إلى زمن موسى " ع " وكل نبي كان في زمن موسى " ع " وبعده كان على شريعة موسى ومنهاجه وتابعا لكتابه إى أيام عيسى " " وكل نبي كان في أيام

    And a Prophetas who was during the days of Ibrahimas, and after himas was upon the Law of Ibrahimas and hisas Manifesto, and a follower of hisas Book up until the era of Musaas. And every Prophetas during the era of Musaas and after himas was upon the Law of Musaas and hisas Manifesto, and a follower of hisas Book up until the days of Isaas. And every Prophetas who was during the days of Isaas and after himas was upon the Manifesto of Isaas, and hisas Law, and a follower of hisas Book up until the era of our Prophetsaww.

    Thus, these are the five who are ‘The Determined Ones’ (Ul Al-Azam), and they are the highest of the Prophetsas and the Rasoolsas, and the Law of Muhammadsaww would not get Abrogated until the Day of Judgement, nor will there be a Prophetsaww after himsaww up to the Day of Judgement.

So if the stars were to go away, there would come to the inhabitants of the sky what they dislike, and if the Peopleasws of mysaww Household go away, there would come to the inhabitants of the earth what they dislike’ – meaning by the Peopleasws of the Household, the Imamsasws, the obedience to whom Allahazwj has Paired as being obedience to Himazwj, so Heazwj Said [4:59] O you who believe! Obey Allah and obey the Rasool and those in authority from among you, and theyasws are the Infallible, the Purified who are not committing any sins nor are theyasws disobeying (Allahazwj), and theyasws are the supporters, the conciliators, the Guides due to whom Allahazwj Sustains Hisazwj servants.

Neither will the Holy Spirit separate from them nor would theyasws separate from it. Neither will theyasws separate from the Quran, nor would it separate from themasws’.16

Heasws said: ‘But, do you know that Rasool-Allahsaww is the father of the entirety of hissaww community, and Aliasws is among them, is of hissaww status?’ So I said, ‘Yes’.

    قال اما علمت ان عليا قاسم الجنة والنار قلت بلى قال فقيل له أبو القاسم النه أبو قسيم الجنة والنار فقلت له وما معنى ذلك؟ فقال ان شفقة النبي صلى هللا عليه وآله على أمته شفقة اآلباء على االوالد وأفضل امته علي " ع " ومن بعده شفقة

    عليه وآله النه وصيه وخليفته واالمام بعده فلذلك قال صلى هللا عليه وآله انا وعلى علي " ع " عليهم كشفقته صلى هللا أبوا هذه االمة،

    Heasws said: ‘But, do you know that Aliasws is the Distributor of the Paradise and the Fire?’ I said, ‘Yes’. Heasws said: ‘So hesaww was referred to as ‘Abu Al-Qasim’ because hesaww is the father of the Distributor of the Paradise and the Fire’. So I said to himasws, ‘And what is the meaning of that?’ So heasws said: ‘The compassion of the Prophetsaww upon hissaww community is that of the compassion of the fathers upon the children, and the best of hissaww community is Aliasws. And after himsaww, is the compassion of Aliasws upon them, just like hissaww compassion, because heasws is hissaww successorasws, and hissaww Caliph, and the Imamasws from after himsaww. Thus, it is due to that, hesaww said: ‘Isaww and Aliasws are the two fathers of this community’.

    وصعد النبي صلى هللا عليه وآله المنبر فقال من ترك دينا أو ضياعا فعلي والي، ومن ترك ماال فلورثته فصار بذلك أولى وكذلك امير المؤمنين " ع " بعده جرى ذلك له مثل ما جرى بهم من آبائهم وأمهاتهم وصار أولى بهم منهم بانفسهم

    لرسول هللا صى هللا عليه وآله وسلم.

    And the Prophetsaww ascended the Pulpit and said: ‘The one who leaves debts or losses, so it (responsibility) is upon mesaww and to mesaww, and the one who leaves wealth, so it is for his inheritors’. Thus, by that hesaww became closer to them than their own (biological) fathers and mothers, and became closer to them than their own

    selves. And like that is Amir Al-Momineenasws after himsaww. That flowed for himasws like what flowed for Rasool-Allahsaww’.24

    Abu Al Husayn Muhammad Bin Ali Bin Al Shah narrated to us, from Abu Bakr Muhammad Bin Ja’far Bin Ahmad Al Baghdady, from his father, from Ahmad Bin Al Sakht, from Muhammad Bin al Aswad Al Waraq, from Ayoub Bin Suleyman, from Hafs Bin Al Bakhtary, from Muhammad Bin Hameed, from Muhammad Bin Am Mankadar, from Jabir Bin Abdullah who said,

    حدثنا أبو الحسين محمد بن علي بن الشاه قال: حدثنا أبو بكر محمد بن جعفر بن احمد البغدادي بآمد قال: حدثنا ابى قال: السخت قال حدثنا محمد بن االسود الوراق عن أيوب بن سليمان عن حفص بن البختري عن محمد بن حدثنا احمد بن

    حميد عن محمد بن المنكدر عن جابر بن عبد هللا قال: قال رسول هللا صلى هللا عليه وآله انا اشبه الناس بآدم وإبراهيم وبين هللا وصفي وبشرني على لسان كل رسول بعثه أشبه الناس بى خلقه وخلقه وسماني هللا من فوق عرشه عشرة اسماء

    هللا إلى قومه وسماني ونشر في التوراة اسمى وبث ذكري في اهل التوراة واالنجيل وعلمني كتابه ورفعني في سمائه

    ‘Rasool-Allahsaww said: ‘Isaww am the one who resembles Adamas the most from the people, and Ibrahimas resembles mesaww the most from the people, in hisas creation and hisas manners, and Allahazwj has Named meas from above Hisazwj Throne with ten names and Described mesaww, and Gave mysaww glad tidings upon the tongues of every Rasoolsaww that Allahazwj Sent to hisas people, and Named mesaww, and Publicised mysaww name in the Torah, and Broadcast mysaww remembrance among the people of the Torah, and the Evangel, and Taught mesaww Hisazwj Book, and Raised mesaww to Hisazwj sky.

    وهو محمود وأخرجني في خير قرن من أمتي وجعل اسمي في التوراة احيد وشق لي أسما من اسمائه فسماني محمدا فبالتوحيد حرم اجساد امتي على النار وسماني في االنجيل احمد فانا محمود في اهل السماء وجعل أمتي الحامدين وجعل

    ا فانا محمود في اسمي في الزبور ماحي محى هللا عزوجل بي من االرض وعبادة االوثان وجعل اسمي في القرآن محمد جميع القيامة في فصل القضاء ال يشفع احد غيري

    And Heazwj Endowed for mesaww a Name from Hisazwj Names, so Heazwj Named mesaww as ‘Muhammad’, and Heazwj is the Praised One, and Raised mesaww among the best generation of mysaww communities. And Heazwj Made mysaww name to be in the Torah as ‘Aheed’. So, it was due to the Oneness that Heazwj Forbade the bodies of mysaww community upon the Fire. And Heazwj Named mesaww in the Evangel as ‘Ahmad’. Thus, Isaww am the praised one among the inhabitants of the sky, and Heazwj Made mysaww community to be the praising ones. And Heazwj Made mysaww name in the Psalms to be ‘Mahiya’, so Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic would Obliterate (Mahou) the worshipping of the idols from the earth. And Heazwj Made mysaww name in the Quran to be ‘Muhammad’, so Isaww am the praised one among the gathered ones on the Day of Judgement with regards to the Decision and the Judgement. No one would intercede apart from mesaww.

    القيامة حاشرا يحشر الناس على قدمى وسماني الموقف أوقف الناس بين يدي هللا عز وجل وسماني العاقب وسماني في انا عقب النبيين ليس بعدي رسول وجعلني رسول الرحمة ورسول المالحم والمقتفى قفيت النبيين جماعة وانا المقيم

    الكامل الجامع

    And Heazwj Named mesaww for the Day of Judgement as ‘Haashira’, the people being crammed to be in front of mesaww. And Hesaww Named mesaww as ‘Al-Mowqaf’, for Isaww would be pausing the people in front of Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic. And Heazwj Named mesaww as ‘Al-Aaqib’, (because) Isaww am the end result of the Prophets, there

    not being any Rasoolas to come after mesaww. And Heazwj Made mesaww to be the Rasoolsaww of the Mercy, and a Rasoolsaww of the epic (after a long series of Prophetsas), and ‘Al-Muqtafi’, being similar to the group of the Prophetsas. And Isaww am ‘Al-Muqeem’, and Isaww am a fully inclusive resident.

    ومن علي ربي وقال لي يا محمد صلى هللا عليك فقد ارسلت كل رسول إلى أمته بلسانها وارسلتك إلى كل احمر واسود من خلقي ونصرتك بالرعب الذي لم انصر به احدا واحللت لك الغنيمة ولم تحل الحد قبلك واعطيتك لك والمتك كنزا من

    لك وألمتك االرض كلها مسجداو ترابها طهورا واعطيت لك كنوز عرشي فاتحة الكتاب وخاتمة سورة البقرة وجعلت والمتك التكبير وقرنت ذكرك بذكري حتى ال يذكرنى احد من امتك إال ذكرك مع ذكري فطوبى لك يا محمد والمتك.

    And mysaww Lordazwj Favoured upon mesaww and Said to mesaww: “O Muhammadsaww! May Blessings be upon yousaww, Iazwj have Sent every Rasoolas to hisas community with its language, and Sent yousaww to every red one, and black one from Myazwj creatures, and Helped yousaww with the awe (wonder) which Iazwj did not Help anyone (else) with, and Made Permissible for yousaww, the war booty, and have not Made it Permissible to anyone before yousaww and Given yousaww, for yousaww and for yoursaww community, a treasure from the treasures of Myazwj Throne – the Opening of the Book (Surah Al-Fatiha) and the end part of the Surah Al-Baqarah. And Iazwj have Made the earth, to be for yousaww and for yoursaww community, all of it, as a Masjid (a place of Prostration), and its dust to be a means of purification. And Iazwj Gave to yousaww and to yoursaww community, the Exclamation of Greatness (Takbeer), and Paired yoursaww mention and Myazwj Mention, to the extent that no one from yoursaww community would mention Meazwj, except that he would (have to) mention yousaww along with Myazwj Mention. So Good News be to yousaww, O Muhammadsaww, and to yoursaww community’.25

For, if it was the Prophetsaww who was being Addressed, did hesaww have doubt in what Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic had Revealed unto himsaww? And if it was someone else, so is it upon someone else that the Quran had been Revealed?’

    ئَِل »فسألت أخي علي بن محمد )عليهما السالم( عن ذلك، فقال: قال موسى: ا أَنأَزلأنا إِلَيأَك فَسأ أما قوله: فَإِنأ ُكنأَت فِي َشكٍّ ِممَّ

    Musa said, ‘So I asked my brotherasws, Aliasws Bin Muhammadasws about that, so heasws said: ‘As for Hisazwj Words [10:94] But if you are in doubt as to what We have Revealed to you, ask those who read the Book before you, so the one Addressed by that is Rasool-Allahsaww, and it was not the doubt about what Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic had Revealed unto himsaww, but the ignoramuses said, ‘How come there has not been Sent to us a Prophetas from the Angels?’ They could not differentiate between himsaww and others with regards to being self-sufficient from the eating, and the drinking, and the walking in the markets.

    ئَِل الَِّذيَن يَقأَرُؤَن الأِكتاَب ِمنأ قَبألَِك بمحضر من الجهلة، هل بعث هللافأوحى هللا عز و جل إلى نبيه )للى هللا عليه و آله(: فَسأ

    So, Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Revealed unto Hisazwj Prophetsaww ask those who read the Book before you in the presence of the ignorance, ‘Has Allahazwj ever Sent a Rasoolas except that heas ate the food, and walked in the markets? And for yousaww theyas were examples. But rather, Heazwj Said [10:94] But if you are in doubt, and did not Say, ‘But in order to do justice to them’, just as Heazwj Said to himsaww [3:61] then say: Come let us call our sons and your sons and our women and your women and our selves and your selves, then imprecate, so let the Curse of Allah be upon the liars. And Heazwj could have Said: “Come, let us imprecate, so let the Curse of Allahazwj be upon the liars”.

    «.النبي )للى هللا عليه و آله( أنه لادق فيما يقول، و لكن أحب أن ينصف من نفسه

    They (the Christians of Najran) would not have been able to answer to the imprecation and would have recognised that hesaww is indeed Allahazwj Prophetsaww, a performer in accordance with Hisazwj Message, and hesaww is not from the liars, and thus recognise the Prophetsaww that hesaww is a truthful with regards to what hesaww is saying, but Iazwj Loved it that hesaww should do justice from himself’.26
