    Ahlulbait (A.s.) are the pinnacle of Excellence, Their virtues are

    uncountable and infinite. Its beyond the capability of human minds to

    comprehend their excellence.

    It the duty of all lovers of Ahlulbait (A.s.) to spread the Fazil of their

    Masters. This compilation is a small step in the same direction and would

    never have been possible without divine motivation, help, and guidance.

    This is the second volume in this series. We would come up with other

    compilations in the series soon Inshallah.

    We are thankful and obliged to our teacher Janab Sayed Ali Hamid Jafary

    Sahib who has been a constant source of guidance in our lives.

    1. "While I Was Worthiest Of Them All . . ." Ali (A.s)

    He said: Abul Hasan Ali b. Muhammad al-Katib reported to me from al-Hasan b. Ali al-Zafarani,

    who reported from Abu Ishaq Ibrahim b. Muhammad al-Thaqafi, who reported from al-Masoodi,

    who reported from al-Hasan b. Hammad, from his father, who reported from Razin Bayya' al-

    Anmat, who said:

    I heard Zaid b. Ali b. Husain, peace be upon him, narrating from his father who reported from his

    father who said: I heard Amirul Mo'mineen, peace be upon him, addressing the people thus:

    "By Allah (S.w.t.) , people gave allegiance to Abu Bakr (L.a.) while I was

    worthiest of them all, together with the attire of mine. But I swallowed my

    anger, and waited for my Sustainer's will, keeping my chest low to the

    ground (i.e. adopting a low profile).

    Then Abu Bakr (L.a.) died, appointing Umar (L.a.) as his successor, thoughhe knew that I was the worthiest of them all, together with this attire of

    mine. But I swallowed my anger and waited for my Sustainer's will.

    Then Umar (L.a.) died and made it an agenda for the consultative

    committee (al-Shura). He appointed me the sixth among the six members,

    like the share of the grandmother! and he said: 'Kill the dissenting minority;'

    and by this he meant no one but me. But I swallowed my fury, waited for

    my Sustainer's will and kept my chest low on the ground.

    Then, the dissenting people did what they did after having sworn allegiance

    to me; and I had no alternative but either to fight against them or disobey

    Allah (S.w.t.) ."

    (Ref: Al-Amali Shaikh Mufeed : The Nineteenth Assembly : Hadees No.5)

    2. Disassociating In The Matter Of TheWilayah Of Ahlul Bait

    (A.s.)He said: Abul Qasim Ja'far b. Muhammad - may Allah bless him with mercy, reported to me

    from his father, from Sa'd b. Abdillah, from Ahmad b. Muhammad b. Isa, from Muhammad b.

    Sinan, from Abdul Karim b. Amru and Ibrahim b. Rahah al-Basri, who both reported from

    Mayassar, who reported that:

  • 7/28/2019 Fazail e Ahlulbait (A.s.) Vol 2

    10/77

    10

    Abu Abdillah Ja'far b. Muhammad, peace be upon him told him: "What do

    you say about a person who does not disobey in what Allah (S.w.t.) has

    enjoined and forbidden, but he disassociates with you and your friends in

    this matter (i.e. wilayah of Ahlul Bait (A.s.) )?" I said: "What can I say in

    your presence?" He said: "Say, for I command you to speak." I said: "Hewill be in hell fire."

    Then he said: "O Mayassar, what do you say about a person who has faith

    similar to yours, and has committed sins normally committed by people, but

    he refrains from the major sins?" I said: "What can I say in your presence?"

    He said: "Say, for that is my order." I said: "He will be in Paradise."

    He said: "Perhaps you are hesitating in saying that such a person will be in

    Paradise!" I said: "No" He said: "Do not hesitate, for surely, Allah (S.w.t.) ,Most High, says (in the Qur'an):

    'If you avoid the heinous sins that are forbidden you, We will expiate your

    evil deeds and admit you in honorable manner.' (al-Nisa:V.31)"

    (Ref: Al-Amali Shaikh Mufeed : The Nineteenth Assembly : Hadees No :4)

    3."Ask Me Before You Miss Me. . ." Ali (A.s)He said: Abul Hasan Ali b. Bilal al-Mahlabi reported to me from Ali b. Abdillah b. Asad al-

    Isfehani, who reported from Ibrahim b. Muhammad al-Thaqafi, who reported from al-Qannad,

    who reported from Ali b. Hashim, from his father, from Saeed b. al- Musayyib who said:

    I heard Amirul Mo'mineen Ali b. Abi Talib, peace be upon him, say: "There

    is no verse between the two covers of the Qur'an, except that I know for

    whom it was revealed and when it was revealed, and whether on a plain,

    leveled land or upon a mountain.

    Surely, here in my breast is abundant knowledge! So, put your questions to

    me before you do not find me among yourselves, for when you have lost

    me, you will not find anyone uttering the words I utter."

    (Ref :Al-Amali Shaikh Mufeed: The Nineteenth Assembly Hadees no. 3)

    4.The Tradition OfAyyub (A.s.)

    He said: Abul Hasan Ali b. Muhammad al-Katib reported to me from al-Hasan b. Ali al-Zafarani,

    who reported from Ibrahim b. Muhammad al-Thaqafi, who reported from Ismail b. Aban, who

    reported from Fadhl b. al-Zubair, from Imran b. Mitham, from Abayah al-Asadi, who said:

    I heard Ali (A.s.) , peace be upon him, say: "I am the master of the aged

    ones. And in me is the tradition of Ayyub (A.s.) (i.e. his sufferings), and by

    Allah (S.w.t.) , He will gather together my family for me, the way He did for

    Ya'qoob (A.s.) ."

    (Ref: Al-Amali Shaikh Mufeed : The Eighteenth Assembly : Hadees no.4)

    5.Doubting The Excellence Of Ali (A.s)He said: Abul Hasan Ali b. Khalid al-Maraghi reported to me from Abu Abdillah al- Asadi, who

    reported from Ja'far b. Abdullah at Alawi al-Muhammadi; who reported from Yahya b. Hashim

    al-Simsar al-Ghassani, who reported from Abu al-Sabah Abdul Ghafoor al-Wasiti, from Abdullah

    b. Muhammad al-Qarshi, from Abu Ali al- Hasan b. Ali al-Rasibi, from al-Dhahhak b. Muzahim,

    from Ibn Abbas - may Allah bless him with mercy, who reported that:

    The Prophet, peace be upon him and his progeny said: "Whoever doubts

    the excellence of Ali b. Abi Talib, peace be upon him, will rise from his

    grave on the Day of Reckoning, with a collar of fire around his neck, having

    three hundred prongs. On each prong, there will be a Satan frowning upon

    him, spitting at his face."

    (Ref: Al-Amali Shaikh Mufeed : The Eighteenth Assembly : Hadees No.3)

    6.What Salman Said About Ali (A.s)

    He said: Abul Hasan Ali b. Muhammad b. Hubaish al-Katib reported to me from al- Hasan b. Ali

    al-Zafarani, who reported from Ibrahim b. Muhammad al-Thaqafi, who reported from al-Masoodi, who reported from Yahya b. Salim al-Abdi, who reported from Maysarah, from al-

    Minhal b. Amru, from Zarr b. Hubaish who said:

    Once, Ali b. Abi Talib, peace be upon him, passed by riding the Prophet's

    mule and Salman was present among the people.

  • 7/28/2019 Fazail e Ahlulbait (A.s.) Vol 2

    12/77

    12

    So Salman - may Allah bless him with mercy, said: "(O people)!do you not

    rise to detain him and ask him questions? By Allah (S.w.t.) , Who split the

    grain and created the breathing creatures, no one but he (i.e. Ali (A.s.) ) will

    inform you about the secrets of your Prophet (S.a.w.w.) .

    Indeed, he is the most learned about this earth and its chief element on

    which it rests. If you miss him, you will miss the knowledge and deny the

    people (its benefit)."

    (Ref: Al-Amali Shaikh Mufeed The Seventeenth Assembly Hadees No. 2)

    7.Fatema(S.a) On TheDay Of Judgement

    He said: Abu Ja'far Muhammad b. Ali b. Musa reported from his father, who reported from Ali b.Ibrahim b. Hashim, from his father, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from Aban b.Uthman, that: Abu Abdillah

    Ja'far b. Muhammad, peace be upon him, said:

    On the Day of Judgment, Allah (S.w.t.) will bring together the first and the

    last people on one plane and then He will cause an announcement to be

    made: "Cast down your glances and lower your heads, so that Fatema

    (S.a), daughter of Muhammad, peace be upon him and his progeny,

    crosses the Bridge (al-Sirat).

    "He said: "People will cast down their glances and then Fatema (S.a),

    peace be upon her, will arrive seated on one of the highbred animals of

    Paradise, followed by 70 thousand angels. Then she will make a

    distinguished pause at one of the high stations on the Day of Judgment,

    dismount and take the blood soiled shirt of al-Husain b. Ali peace be upon

    him, in her hands, saying:

    "O Allah (S.w.t.) ! This shirt belongs to my son, and You know what was

    done to him." There will be proclamation from Allah (S.w.t.) , Most High: "OFatema (S.a), you have My pleasure." She will say: "Help me avenge from

    those who killed him."

    Allah (S.w.t.) will then command a flame from hellfire to leap forth and

    devour all the killers of al-Husain b. Ali, peace be upon him, the way a bird

  • 7/28/2019 Fazail e Ahlulbait (A.s.) Vol 2

    13/77

    13

    devours a seed. The flame will take them back into the hell pit, subjecting

    them to various chastisements.

    Then Fatema (S.a),will ride again and proceed to enter Paradise,

    accompanied by the angels following her, her descendants before her andher friends and partisans on her right and on her left."

    (Ref: Al - Amali Shaikh Mufeed The Fifteenth Assembly Hadees No.6)

    8.Will Be Like TheJews

    He said: Abul Husain Muhammad b. al-Mudhaffer al-Bazzaz reported to me from Abu Abdillah

    Ja'far b. Muhammad al-Hasani, who reported from Idris b. Ziyad al-Kafrsosi, who reported from

    Hannan b. Sudair, from Sudaif al-Makki who reported from Muhammad b. Ali, peace be uponhm (commenting that I have not seen any believer of Muhammad to match his excellence) who

    reported from Jabir b. Abdillah al-Ansari, who said:

    Once, the Prophet, peace be upon him and his progeny, caused an

    announcement to be made among the Muhajir and Ansar, so they

    assembled with their weapons. The Prophet, peace be upon him and his

    progeny, climbed the pulpit, praised Allah (S.w.t.) and expressed his

    gratitude to Him.

    Then he said: "O Muslims, whoever hates us, the Ahlul Bait (A.s.) , Allah(S.w.t.) shall resurrect him on the day of Judgment as a follower of

    Judaism." Jabir said: I stood up and asked: "O Messenger of Allah (S.w.t.) ,

    will it happen even if I testify that there is no god but Allah (S.w.t.) , and that

    Muhammad (S.a.w.w.) is the Messenger (S.a.w.w.) of Allah (S.w.t.) ?" He

    said: "If he testified that there is no god but Allah (S.w.t.) , that saved him

    from his blood being spilled and from paying the tax submissively and with

    humility."

    Then the Prophet , peace be upon him and his progeny said: "Whoever

    hates us, theAhlul Bait (A.s.), Allah (S.w.t.) shall resurrect him, as a

    follower of Judaism on the Day of Judgment, and if he ever met Dajjal, he

    would be his partisan. And, even if he did not meet him (i.e. Dajjal), he

    would be resurrected in his grave, so that he believes in him (i.e. Dajjal).

  • 7/28/2019 Fazail e Ahlulbait (A.s.) Vol 2

    14/77

    14

    Surely, Allah (S.w.t.) made the whole of my Ummah appear before me

    while still in dust, and taught me their names, the way he taught all the

    names to Adam (A.s.) . So, standard bearers passed by me and I prayed

    for forgiveness, in favor of Ali (A.s.) and his followerscont..

    (Ref: Al-Amali Shaikh Mufeed: The Fifteenth Assembly :Hadees No.:4)

    9.Love For Four Companions; Which Ones?

    He said: Abu Ubaidullah Muhammad b. Imran al-Marzbani reported to me from Ahmad b.

    Muhammad b. Isa al-Makki, who reported from Abdullah b. Ahmad b. Hanbal, who reported

    from his father, who reported from al-Husain b. al-Hasan, who reported from Sharik, from Abi

    Raabia'h al-Ayadi, who was heard narrating even in his old age, from Ibn Buridah, from his

    father, who said:

    The Prophet, peace be upon him and his progeny, said: "Surely, Allah

    (S.w.t.) has commanded me to love four of my companions; and has

    revealed to me that He indeed loves them." We said: "Who are they, O

    Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) ? And there is none from us who does not

    wish to be among them."

    He, peace be upon him and his progeny, said: "Be it known that Ali (A.s.) is

    among them" - and he repeated this three times - "and al-Miqdad and Abu

    Dharr al-Ghifari and Salman al-Farsi."

    (Ref: Al-Amali Shaikh Mufeed: The Fifteenth Assembly: Hadees No.2)

    10.The Revelation Descended In Our Homes ........

    He said: Abul Hasan Ahmad b. Muhammad b. al-Hasan reported to me from his father, from

    Sa'd b. Abdillah, from Ahmad b Muhammad b. Isa, from al-Hasan b. Mahboob from Yahya b.

    Abdillah b. al-Hasan who said:

    I heard Ja'far b. Muhammad, peace be upon him, say in the presence of

    people of Kufa:

    15

    "It is surprising to hear people claim that they have derived all their

    knowledge from the Prophet, peace be upon him and his progeny, and

    having acted accordingly, they are guided.

    And they believe that we, Ahlul Bait (A.s.) , have not derived hisknowledge, nor have we been guided by him, in spite of being his family

    members and descendants!

    The revelation descended in our homes, and from us the knowledge

    reached the people. Do you believe that they knew and were guided, while

    we remained ignorant and lost? This is indeed impossible."

    (Ref: Al Amali Shaikh Mufeed: The Fourteenth Assembly : Hadees No.6)

    11.Good Deeds Equal To That Of 70 Prophets Would Be

    Rejected

    He said: Abul Qasim Ja'far b. Muhammad reported to me from his father, from Sa'd b. Abdillah,

    from Ahmad b. Muhammad b. Isa, from al-Hasan b. Mahboob, from Hisham, from Murazim who

    reported from al-Sadiq, Ja'far b. Muhammad, peace be upon him, who reported that:

    The Prophet, peace be upon him and his progeny, said: "What has

    happened to some people in my Ummah, who become cheerful and

    jubilant when Ibrahim (A.s.) and the progeny of Ibrahim (A.s.) are

    mentioned to them; but when I and my progeny are mentioned, they detest

    it and frown at it!

    By He Who sent me as a truthful Prophet, if a person dies after having

    performed the (good) deeds of 70 Prophets, but he has no liking for the

    authority of our Ahlul Bait (A.s.) , Allah (S.w.t.) will not accept his obligatory

    or voluntary acts of worship."

    12.Ali (A.s)'s Soul Was The First To Greet The Prophet

    (S.a.w.w.)

    He said: Abu Bakr Muhammad b. Umar al-Je'abi reported to me from Abu Abdillah Muhammad

    b. al-Qasim al-Muharibi, who reports from Ismail b. Ishaq al-Rashidi, who reported from

    Muhammad b. al-Harith, who reported from Ibrahim b. Muhammad, from Muslim al-A'awar, from

    Habbah al-Arni, from Abu al-Haytham b. al- Teehan al-Ansari, who reported that:

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) , peace be upon him and his progeny, said: "Allah

    (S.w.t.) , Most High, created the souls two thousand years earlier then the

    bodies, attached it to the Throne and ordered them to greet me and obey

    me. So the first one among men who greeted me and expressed his

    obedience to me was the soul of Ali b. Abi Talib, peace be uponhim."

    13.The Sign Of Guidance

    Abul Hasan Mohammad bin Jaafar Al-Nahwy narrated from his father, from Mohammad bin

    Hasan bin Ali Al-Qazwiny, from Ahmad bin Dawud, from Mohammad bin Saleh, from Abbas bin

    Rabee, from Esma bin Ismail, from Abu Ma'shar, from Abu Huraira, who said:

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said:

    On the night of Meraaj, I heard a call from under the Throne that said, Ali

    (A.s.) is the sign of guidance and he is the heir of My love (the Prophet), so

    announce it.

    When I came down from the heavens, Allah (S.w.t.) reminded me of this

    incident through the revelation of this verse, " O Messenger (S.a.w.w.),

    deliver what has been sent down to you from your Lord. And if you do not

    do it (it will be as if) you have not delivered His message (at all)" (5:67).

    Hasan bin Mohammad bin Bahram, from Yusuf bin Musa Al-Qattan, from Jurair, from Laith,

    from Mujahid, from Ibn Abbas, who said:

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said,

    counters, and all human beings were writers, they would not be able to

    Commander of the Believers, Ali bin Abi Taleb, who said:

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said: When I entered Paradise, I saw

    some different coloured horses under a tree that was decorated with

    jewels. I saw HUR AL-EEN in the middle of the tree, and I saw Rizwan on

    top of the tree.

    So I asked Jibraeel to whom the tree belonged. He (Jibraeel) replied: It

    belongs to your cousin, Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) . When Allah (S.w.t.)orders His creatures to enter Paradise, the Shia of Ali (A.s.) will be brought

    to this tree.

    They will decorate themselves from the jewels of the tree and they will ride

    the different coloured horses. Then the caller will call, These are the Shia

    18

    of Ali (A.s.) . They were patient when they were hurt in the world, so they

    are being rewarded with generosity today.

    16.A City For Each Vein

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said:

    Allah accepts the Salaat, the SIYAM (Fasting), and the efforts of those who

    love Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) , and He answers their prayers.

    Take Heed ! Allah (S.w.t.) gives those who love Ali (A.s.) one city (in

    Paradise) for each vein in their body.

    Take Heed! Those who love the family of the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) are safe

    from the judgment process, the scale, and from the bridge.

    Take Heed ! I guarantee Paradise in the neighborhood of the prophets to

    those who love the family of the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) .

    Take Heed ! Those who die hating the family of the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) willhave the following written between their eyes on the Day of Judgment, No

    hope for the Mercy of Allah (S.w.t.) .

    Hasan, from Isa bin Mihran, from Ubaidullah bin Musa, from Khalid bin Tahman Al-Khaffaf, from

    Saad bin Jonada Al-Awfi, from Zaid bin Arqam, from Abi Saeed Al-Khodri, who said:

  • 7/28/2019 Fazail e Ahlulbait (A.s.) Vol 2

    19

    The Messenger of Allah (S.w.t.) said, Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) is the

    Master of Arabs. So the people asked the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) , Are you

    not the Master of Arabs?

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) replied: I am the Master of human beings and Ali(A.s.) is the Master of Arabs. Allah (S.w.t.) loves those who love Ali (A.s.)

    and follow him, and (Allah (S.w.t.) ) guides them to the right path. Allah

    (A.s.) makes those who hate Ali (A.s.) and those who fight him deaf and

    blind.

    Alis (A.s.) HAQQ is my HAQQ, and following him is following me, except

    that there is no prophet after me. Those who abandon him abandon me,

    and those who abandon me abandon Allah (S.w.t.) .

    I am the city of knowledge and Ali (A.s.) is the door of the city. How is it

    possible for anyone to be guided to Paradise except through this door? Ali

    (A.s.) is the best human being. Those who deny this are Kafers.

    Qorashi, from Qanbar bin Ahmad bin Qanbar, from his father, from his grandfather Qanbar the

    servant of Ali bin Abi Taleb, from Kaab bin Noufel, from Bilal bin Hamama, who said:

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) came to the people one day and his face was

    beaming like the moon.

    So Abdul Rahman Al-Awf asked the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) , Why is your face

    beaming like this?

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) replied: I received good news from Allah (S.w.t.)

    about my brother and my cousin and my daughter. Allah (S.w.t.) married

    Ali (A.s.) to Fatema (S.a)and he ordered Rizwan (the Keeper of Paradise)

    to shake the tree of Touba. Rizwan shook the tree, and for every lover of

  • 7/28/2019 Fazail e Ahlulbait (A.s.) Vol 2

    20/77

    20

    my family, one leaf fell from the tree. Then Rizwan gave each one of the

    leaves to an angel that was made of light.

    On the Day of Judgment, these angels will call and say O lovers of Ali bin

    Abi Taleb (A.s.) , come and collect your belongings. So all those who lovemy family and I will receive a leaf.

    These leaves are the passes that save people from Hell; they are given to

    people as a reward for loving Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) and Fatema (S.a), my

    daughter, and their sons (A.s.) .

    Mohammad bin Mansour, from Mohammad bin Ismail, from Wakee, from Sufyan, from Ash'ab,

    from Ikrama, from Ibn Abbas, who said:

    I would have given the world to have had the Messenger of Allah (S.w.t.)

    make the statement he made about Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) about me.

    So people asked Ibn Abbas, What was the statement?

    I replied, The Prophet told Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) , You are from me and I

    am from you; your progeny is from us and we are from them; your Shia are

    from us and we are from them, and your Shia will enter Paradise five

    hundred years before the others.

    Imam), from Jaafar bin Mohammad, from his father, from Ali bin Husain, from his father, who

    said:

    21

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said:

    When Allah (S.w.t.) created Paradise, He ordered Paradise to decorate

    itself and it did. Then Allah (S.w.t.) said to Paradise, I swear to My

    Magnificence that I did not create you except for the believers. May therebe bliss and happiness for you and your inhabitants!

    Then the Prophet said to Ali (A.s.) , O Ali, Paradise was not created except

    for you and your Shia.

    21.Siddiq Al Akbar

    Ahmad bin Mohammad bin Musa bin Urwah narrated from Mohammad bin Uthman Al-

    Moaddel, from Mohammad bin Abdil Malik, from Yazid bin Harun, from Hammad bin Salama,

    from Thabit, from Anas bin Malik, who said:

    I saw the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) in my dream and he asked me:

    O Anas! What made you disobey me and ignore everything that I said

    about Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) until you received the punishment? If Ali

    (A.s.) does not forgive you, you will not even smell Paradise. (And if you

    want his forgiveness) Announce and tell people that Ali (A.s.) , his progeny,

    and their lovers are the SAABEQUN (the foremost), they are the first ones

    in Paradise.

    The lovers (of Ali (A.s.) ) are the neighbors of Allahs (S.w.t.) friends in

    Paradise. Allahs (S.w.t.) friends are Hamza (the Prophets uncle), Jaafar

    (the Prophets cousin), and Hasan (A.s.) and Husain (A.s.) . As for Ali

    (A.s.) , he is the SIDDIQ AL-AKBAR (the most truthful one). Those who

    love him need not fear the Day of Judgment.(Ref :Khawarezmi in Manaqeb P32. and his Maqtal V1 P40. Kashf Al-Ghommah V1 P104.

    from Yusuf bin Yaqoub, from Muslim bin Ibrahim, from Hisham Al-Dastowaai, from Yahya bin

    Abi Katheer, from Abi Salama, from Abu Huraira, who said:

    The Messenger of Allah (S.w.t.) said:

    Allah (S.w.t.) has created one hundred thousand angels in the fourth sky

    and three hundred angels in the fifth sky. Allah (S.w.t.) has created one

    angel in the seventh sky that is so big that his head is under the Throne of

    Allah and his feet touch the earth, and Allah (S.w.t.) has created many

    more angels.

    The only sustenance for these angels is SALAWAT on Ali (A.s.), the

    Commander of the Believers, and on his lovers, and seeking forgiveness

    for the sins of his Shia and for (the sins of) his lovers.

    Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) came to my father (Abu Bakr (L.a.)) while he was ill

    with the illness that caused his death. My father was staring at his (Alis

    (A.s.) ) face and would not take his eyes off of him.

    So when Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) left, I asked my father, Why were you

    looking at his face like that?

    He (Abu Bakr (L.a.)) replied, Because I heard the Messenger of Allah

    (S.a.w.w.) say, Looking at the face of Ali (A.s.) is worshipping Allah

    (S.w.t.).

    bin Ziar bin Yahya Al-Qurashi, from Abdul Razzaq, from Sadaqa Al- Abasi, from Zathan, from

    Salaman Al-Mohammadi, who said:

    I went to the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) and said Salaam to him. Then I went to

    Fatemas (S.a.) house and I said Salaam to her.

    She replied, O Aba Abdillah (Salaman), Hasan (A.s.) and Husain (A.s.)

    are hungry, and they are crying. Take their hands and take them to their

    grandfather.

    So I carried them to the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) . The Prophet (S.a.w.w.)

    asked, O my two loves, what is wrong?

    Hasan (A.s.) and Husain (A.s.) replied, We are hungry, O Messenger of

    Allah (S.a.w.w.) . Then the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) said three times, O Allah

    (S.w.t.) , feed them.

    Then I saw a quince in the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) s hands that looked whiter

    than milk, sweeter than honey, and softer than butter. The Prophet

    (S.a.w.w.) rubbed it with his thumb and cut it into two pieces. He gave half

    to Hasan (A.s.) and the other half to Husain (A.s.) . So I was looking at the

    two halves in their hands and I desired it.

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) asked me, O Salaman, do you want some? I

    replied, Yes, O Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) .

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) said O Salaman, this food is from Paradise. No

    one can eat it before completing the judgment process and being saved

    from Hell, even though you are on the right path.

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said, I leave behind two important

    Musa, but Allah (S.w.t.) mentioned Haruns name in the Qur'an but did not

    mention Ali (A.s.) .

    O Ameerul Momineen (A.s.) , it is Allah (S.w.t.) that has placed you in this

    position however your father will be tortured in Hell.

    Ameerul Momineen (A.s.) replied,

    I swear by Allah (S.w.t.) who sent Muhammad (S.a.w.w.) as a Prophetthat if My Father intercedes for all of the sinners on earth, Allah (S.w.t.) will

    accept it. How can My Father be in Hell, while I, his son, am the one who

    divides between Paradise and Hell?

    I swear by Allah (S.w.t.) , who sent Muhammad (S.a.w.w.) as a Prophet,

    my fathers Noor on the Day of Judgment exceeds the Noor of all creatures

    except the noor of five noors: the Noor of Muhammad (S.a.w.w.) , My

    (Imam Ali (A.s.)s ) Noor, the noor of Fat ima (S.a), the Noor of Hasan (A.s.)

    and Hussain (A.s.) , and the Noor of the Imams (A.s.) from the sons of

    Hussain (A.s.) .

    I was standing in front of the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) in his mosque in Medina.He told me to go and bring Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) quickly for him. I went

    and found Ali (A.s.) (Fatema (S.a.) was with him), and I told him that the

    Prophet (S.a.w.w.) wanted to see him. He came with me immediately.

    When we got to the Prophet (S.a.w.w.), Ali (A.s.) said Salaam to the

    Prophet (S.a.w.w.) . The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) said, O Ali (A.s.) , say

    Salaam to Jibraeel. So Ali said, Assalaamo Alaika, O Jibraeel. Jibraeel

    answered his Salaam.

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) told Ali (A.s.) that Jibraeel said:

    Allah (S.w.t.) sends His Salaam to you (Ali (A.s.)) and says:

    Bliss and happiness for you and your Shia and those who love you.And

    woe and more woe on those who hate you. On the Day of Judgement, the

    caller will call from inside the Throne and will say, Where are Mohammad

    (S.a.w.w.) and Ali (A.s.) ? Then you both will go up to the seventh sky and

    will stand in front of Allah (S.w.t.) .

    Then Allah (S.w.t.) will say to His Prophet (S.a.w.w.) , Take Ali (A.s.) to

    the Pool of Kawthar and give him this cup so he can distribute the water to

    his lovers and his Shia, but not to those who hate him.

    Then Allah (S.w.t.) will say, He (Ali (A.s.)) will order that his lovers have an

    easy judgment process and he will order that they enter Paradise.

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said:

    Knowledge is divided in five parts. Four of those parts are given to Ali bin

    Abi Taleb (A.s.) and the last part is shared among all people. I swear to

    Allah (S.w.t.) , who sent me as a Prophet, that Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) ismore knowledgeable than all people, even in relation to the one part (of

    knowledge) that is given to them.

    Those who testify, There is no Allah (S.w.t.) but Me: Mohammad

    (S.a.w.w.) is My slave and My Messenger; Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) is My

    Caliph; and his sons (A.s.) are My Decisive proofs, I will allow them to

    enter My Paradise with My mercy.

    I will save them from Hell with My forgiveness. They will be My neighbors,and I will honor them. I will give them My complete grace and I will make

    them among the special and chosen ones.

    If they call Me, I will respond. If they pray to Me, I will answer them. If they

    ask Me (anything), I will grant it to them. If they do not initiate (coming to

    Me), I will initiate (it). If they commit mistakes, I will have mercy on them.

    If they run from Me, I will invite them to Myself. If they come back to Me, I

    will accept them. If they knock on My door, I will open it.

    And those who do not testify that, There is no Allah (S.w.t.) except Me, or

    do testify that, but do not testify that Mohammad (S.a.w.w.) is My slave

    and My Messenger, or do testify that, but do not testify that Ali bin Abi

    Taleb (A.s.) is My Caliph, or do testify that, but do not testify that the

    Imams from his sons (A.s.) are My Decisive proofs, they (those who do

    30

    not testify completely) do not believe in My blessings. They disrespect Me.

    They are Kafers, and they do not believe in My signs, My books, or My

    Messengers.

    If they come to Me, I will hide Myself from them. If they ask Me (anything),I will not grant it. If they call Me, I will not hear their call. If they pray to Me,

    I will ignore them. If they want Me, I will disappoint them. And this is their

    punishment from Me, and I am not unjust to My creation.

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said:

    Jibraeel came to him one morning, very happy and cheerful. So the

    Prophet (S.a.w.w.) asked, Why you are so happy?

    Jibraeel replied, How can I not be happy after seeing how Allah (S.w.t.)honoured you and your brother, the Imam of your nation, Ali bin Abi Taleb

    (A.s.) ?

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) asked , "How did Allah (S.w.t.) honor the Imam of

    my nation (Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) ) and I (S.a.w.w.) ?

    Jibraeel replied:

    Last night Allah (S.w.t.) boasted about Ali (A.s.) worshiping Him to His

    angels and to those who carry His Throne. He told them, Look at Mydecisive proof (Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) ) in My land after My Prophet

    (S.a.w.w.) . Look at how he kneels with his forehead on the ground for Me

    out of humility. I take you (angels and the carriers of the Throne) as

    witnesses that he is the Imam and the master of My creation."

    said? We replied, Allah (S.w.t.) and His Messenger (S.a.w.w.) know

    better.

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) said, The palm tree shouted This is Mohammad

    (S.a.w.w.) , the Messenger of Allah (S.w.t.) , and his heir, Ali bin Abi Taleb

    (A.s.) . So the Prophet named the palm tree Al-Nakhlah Al-Sayhani (the

    human being. Those who deny this are Kafers.

    So people asked her, Why did you go to war with him?

    Ayesha (L.a) replied, I did not do this out of my own inclination. It was

    from Mohammad bin Zakariyya, from Abbas bin Bakkar, from Abu Bakr Al-Hozali, from Ikrama,

    from Ibn Abbas, who said:

    The Messenger of Allah (S.w.t.) said to Abdul Rahman bin Awf:

    O Abdul Rahman! You people are my companions, but Ali bin Abi Taleb

    (A.s.) is from me and I am from him.

    So those who compare him to anyone are unjust to me. Those who are

    unjust to me, hurt me. Allah (S.w.t.)s curse is on those who hurt me.

    O Abdul Rahman! Allah (S.w.t.) sent His book to me and ordered me to

    teach it to all people, except Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) , because he does not

    need to be taught. Allah (S.w.t.) made Ali (A.s.)s eloquence as my

    eloquence, and Ali (A.s.) s knowledge as my knowledge.

    If patience was a person, it would be Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) ; and if moral

    excellence was a person it would be Hasan (A.s.) ; and if modesty was a

    person it would be Husain (A.s.) ; and if everything that is good were to be

    a person it would be Fatema (S.a.), and she is even better than that.

    The origin of my daughter, Fatema (S.a.), is greater than any other

    inhabitant on earth, as is her honor and her generosity.

    I heard the Messenger ofAllah (S.a.w.w.) say that on the night of Meraaj,

    he entered Paradise and he saw a light that was very bright. So he asked

    Jibraeel about the light.

    Jibraeel replied, O Mohammad (S.a.w.w.) ! This light is not from the sunnor is it from the moon. This (light) is from one of Ali bin Abi Talebs (A.s.)

    maids. She came out of her palace and she looked at you and smiled.

    The light that you saw was from her teeth, and she will walk around in

    Paradise until the Commander of the Believers, Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) , will

    enter Paradise.

    The first inhabitants of the heavens to take Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) as a

    brother, were Israfil, then Mikaeel, and then Jibraeel.

    The first ones to love him were the carriers of the Throne, then Rizwan, the

    keeper of Paradise, and then the angel of death.

    The angel of death is as merciful to those who love Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.)

    as he is to the prophets.

    Maleki, from Abdullah bin Mohammad Rasmoweyh, from Ibn Harma, from Anas bin Malik, who

    said:

    The Messenger of Allah (S.w.t.) asked me to saddle his mule, so I did.

    Then the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) rode and I followed him. When we arrived atthe house of the Commander of the Believers (A.s.), the Prophet asked me

    to saddle Ali (A.s.)s mule, so I did.

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) and Ali (A.s.) rode together and I was following

    them until they came to a green and beautiful land. Then a white cloud

    covered them so I went closer and I heard a loud voice saying:

    ASSALAAMU ALAIKUMA WA RAHMATULLAH WA BARAKATU.

    They answered the Salaam. Then Jibraeel came down, and then I could

    no longer see them. Then when Jibraeel went back up, I saw the Prophet

    (S.a.w.w.) call Ali (A.s.).

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) gave Ali (A.s.) an apple that had the following

    statement written on it with the power of Allah (S.w.t.) , This is a present

    from the Predominant Lord to his WALI, Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) .

    The Messenger of Allah (S.w.t.) said:

    O Salman! Those who love Fatema (S.a.), my daughter, will be with me in

    Paradise, and those who hate her will be in Hell.

    O Salman! The love of Fatema (S.a.) will be beneficial in one hundreddifficult instances. The least difficult of these instances will be at the time of

    death, in the grave, at the scale, the gathering of people on the Day of

    Judgment, the bridge, the display (of your book), and the calculation.

    I am pleased with those with whom Fatema (S.a.) is pleased, and Allah

    (S.w.t.) is pleased with those with whom I am pleased. I am angry with

    those with whom Fatema (S.a.) is angry, and Allah (S.w.t.) is angry with

    those with whom I am angry.

    Woe unto those who are unjust to her (S.a.) and to her husband, the

    Commander of the Believers (A.s.) . Woe unto those who are unjust to her

    Shia and to her progeny.

    47.Who Are TheBest Of The Nation

    Abu Hafs Amr bin Ibrahim bin Ahmad bin Katheer Al-Maqarri narrated from Abdullah bin

    Mohammad bin Abdil Aziz AloBaghawi, from Abdullah bin Omar, from Abdul Malik bin Umair,

    from Salem Al-Bazzaz, from Abu Huraira, who said:

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said, Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) , Fatema

    (S.a.w.w.) , Hasan (A.s.) , and Husain (A.s.) are the best of this nation

    after me. Allah (S.w.t.) s curse is on whoever says anything against this.

    37

    Imam Jaafar bin Mohammad (A.s.) said, My father told me that his father

    narrated, from Husain bin Ali (A.s.) , from his father, the Commander of the

    Believers (A.s.) , who said:

    Allah (S.w.t.) s curse is on those who do not say that I am the fourth of the

    four caliphs.

    So Husain bin Zaid said to Jaafar bin Mohammed (A.s.) , But you say that

    he is the first caliph of the Prophet (S.a.w.w.), and you do not lie.

    Jaafar bin Mohammad (A.s.) replied:

    Yes. Allah (S.w.t.) says in the Qur'an, When Your Lord said to the angels:

    Verily I am going to appoint a caliph in the earth" (2:30). So Adam (A.s.)was the first caliph.

    And Allah (S.w.t.) says in the Quran. " O Dawud (A.s.) ! Verily we have

    appointed you as a caliph in the earth" (38:26).

    So Dawud (A.s.) was the second caliph.

    And Allah (S.w.t.) says in the Quran. "Musa (A.s.) said to Harun (A.s.) ,

    take my place (be my caliph) among my people, act rightly" (7:142).So

    Harun (A.s.) was the third caliph.

    And Ali (A.s.) is the caliph of Mohammad (S.a.w.w.) . That is why Ali (A.s.)

    said that Allah (S.w.t.)'s curse is on those who did not say that he is the

    fourth of the four caliphs.

    said:

    You are a SAYYID (Master), son of a Sayyid, and father of the Sayyids.You are an Imam, the son of an Imam, and father of the Imams. You are

    Allah (S.w.t.)s decisive proof, the son of Allah (S.w.t.)s decisive proof, and

    you are the father of nine of Allah (S.w.t.)s decisive proofs, and the ninth

    one is the QAEM (A.t.f.s.).

    On the Day of Judgement, Ali (A.s.) will ride on a camel from the camels of

    Paradise, and the light of the camel will light the entire plain on which the

    judgement process will take place.

    Because he will be wearing a crown made of sapphires and gems, theangels will say that Ali (A.s.) is a high-ranked angel and the prophets will

    say that he is a prophet.

    Then the caller will call from inside the Throne, This is the most truthful;

    this is the heir of Allah (s.w.t.)s love (the Prophet (S.a.w.w.)); this is Ali bin

    Abi Taleb (A.s.) .

    Ali (A.s.) will stand on top of Hell. Whoever he does not love will enter Hell,

    and whoever he loves will be saved.

    Then Ali (A.s.) will come to the gates of Paradise and his friends and Shia

    will enter from any door they choose, without judgement.

    mountain which has risen higher than Paradise. The Throne of Allah

    (S.w.t.) is on top of this mountain. The rivers of Paradise blast from the

    sides of this mountain and flow into the gardens of Paradise.

    Ali (A.s.) will be sitting on a chair made of light and the river of Tasneem

    will run in front of him. No one will be allowed to cross the bridge without apass that states Ali(A.s.)s Wilayat and the Wilayat of his family.

    Mohammad bin Al-Walid, from Rabee Ibn Al-Jarah, from Aamash, from Abi Wael, from

    Abdullah bin Masoud, who said:

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said:

    When Allah (S.w.t.) created Adam (A.s.) and blew from His soul to Adams

    (A.s.) body, Adam (A.s.) sneezed and said, Alhamdulillah.

    So Allah (S.w.t.) sent a revelation to him and said, You praised Me, My

    slave. I swear by My Glory and Magnificence that if it was not for two

    slaves I would not have created you.Adam (A.s.) asked, My Lord, are they from me?

    Allah (S.w.t.) replied, Yes. O Adam (A.s.), raise your head and look up.

    Adam (A.s.) raised his head and saw (the following) written on the Throne

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said:

    O Ali (A.s.) , your example in my nation is like Al-Messiah Isa (Marys son).

    His people were divided in three groups: one group were the believers and

    they were the Disciples; another group was against him and those were theJews; and the third group exaggerated about his status (thought he was the

    son of Allah (S.w.t.)) so they are out of the circle of belief.

    Likewise, my nation will be divided in three groups: one group is your Shia

    and they are the believers; one group is your enemies and they are the

    ones with doubt; and one group will be those who exaggerate your status

    (they call you Allah (S.w.t.)) and they are disbelievers.

    Therefore, you, O Ali (A.s.), your Shia, and those who love your Shia are in

    Paradise. Your enemies and those who exaggerate (who call you Allah)

    are in Hell.

    Jaafar, from Ayyoub bin Nuh, from Ibn Mahboub, from Ali bin Al-Rayyan, from Mallak bin Atiyya,from Jaafar bin Mohammad, from his father, from Ali bin Husain, from his father, who said:

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said to Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.):

    O Abal Hasan (A.s.)! If the beliefs of the entire creation and their good

    deeds were put on one side of a scale and your good deeds, for only one

    day, on the other side of the scale, your good deeds for a single day would

    undoubtedly be greater than all of the good deeds of the entire creation.

    In the Battle of Uhud, Allah (S.w.t.) boasted about you to his high-rankedangels. He removed the covers from the seven heavens on that day, and

    Paradise and everything in it started shining for you.

    The Lord of the Worlds was pleased with what you did, and Allah (S.w.t.)

    will reward you for that day with a reward which will make all of the

    prophets, the messengers, the truthful ones, and the martyrs envy you.

    light in My land and he is the trustworthy caretaker of My knowledge. I will

    not allow those who know him to enter Hell, even if they disobey Me. And I

    will not allow those who deny him to enter Paradise, even if they obey Me.

    45/77

    45

    light to the inhabitants of earth. There is writing on both sides. Do you

    know what is written (on both sides of the sun)?

    We replied, Allah (S.w.t.) and His Messenger (S.a.w.w.) know better.

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) said, The writing on the side that gives light to theheavens says, Allah (S.w.t.) is the light of the heavens and earth' (24:35).

    The writing on the side that gives light to the inhabitants of earth says, Ali

    (A.s.) is the light of the earths.

    The Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) said:

    Fatema (S.a.) is the blood inside my heart; her sons are the fruits of my

    heart; her husband is my eyesight; the Imams from her sons are His

    extended rope between Him and His creatures.

    I was a young boy serving Ayesha (L.a.), and when the Prophet (S.a.w.w.)

    was with her, I used to serve them.

    One day, while the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) was sitting with Ayesha (L.a.),

    someone knocked at the door. I opened the door and it was a maid with a

  • 7/28/2019 Fazail e Ahlulbait (A.s.) Vol 2

    46/77

    46

    covered dish, so I went back and I told Ayesha (L.a.). Ayesha (L.a.) told me

    to bring her in. She came in and put the dish in front of Ayesha (L.a.), and

    Ayesha (L.a.) put it in front of the Prophet (S.a.w.w.). So the Prophet

    (S.a.w.w.) started eating from the dish and the maid left.

    Then the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) said, I wish the Commander of the Believers

    (A.s.), the Master of Muslims (A.s.) , and the Imam of the pious (A.s.) was

    here eating with me. Ayesha (L.a.) said, To whom are you referring that

    has all of these titles?

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) did not answer. Then he repeated what he said.

    She (Ayesha (L.a.)) asked again, To whom are you referring that has all of

    these titles? But the Prophet (S.a.w.w.) did not answer.

    Then someone knocked at the door and I opened it. It was Ali bin Abi

    Taleb (A.s.). I went back and told the Prophet (S.a.w.w.), and he said to

    bring him in.

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) said, O Abal Hasan (A.s.), welcome. I wished for

    you twice. When you did not come, I asked Allah (S.w.t.) to bring you for

    me. So sit down and eat with me.

    Then Ali (A.s.) sat down and ate with the Prophet (S.a.w.w.). Then the

    Prophet (S.a.w.w.) said, O Ali (A.s.), may Allah (S.w.t.) fight those whofight you, and may Allah (S.w.t.) be the enemy of your enemies.

    So Ayesha (L.a.) said, Who will fight him and be his enemy? The Prophet

    (S.a.w.w.) replied to her, You and those with you. You will accept fighting

    him and will not refuse it. The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) repeated this twice.

  • 7/28/2019 Fazail e Ahlulbait (A.s.) Vol 2

    47

    I heard the Messenger of Allah (S.a.w.w.) say, O people! Understand that

    Allah (S.w.t.) has made a gate to Himself for you. If you enter from it you

    will be safe from Hell and the great terror.

    Then Abu Saeed Al-Khodri stood up and said, Guide us to this door so werecognize it.

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) replied: It is Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.), the Master of

    Successors, the Commander of the Believers, brother of the Messenger of

    Allah (S.a.w.w.), and Allahs (S.w.t.) caliph on all people.

    O people! Those of you who love to hold on to the firmest handle that

    never breaks off, hold on to Ali bin Abi Talebs (A.s.) Wilayat. His Wilayat is

    my Wilayat, and obeying him is obeying me.

    O people! Those of you who want to know who Allahs (S.w.t.) decisive

    proof is after me, know that it is Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.).

    O people! Those of you who want to follow Allah (S.w.t.) and His

    Messenger (S.a.w.w.), follow Ali bin Abi Taleb (A.s.) and the Imams from

    my family because they are the keepers of my knowledge.

    Then Jabir bin Abdillah Al-Ansari asked, How many Imams are there?

    The Prophet (S.a.w.w.) replied:

    O Jabir! May Allah (S.w.t.) have mercy on you. You have asked me about

    the entire Islam. Their number is the number of the months.

    "Verily, the number of months with (S.w.t.) is twelve months in Allah's

    (S.w.t.) book since the day He created the heavens and the earth"(9:36)

    Their number is equal to the number of rivers that Allah (S.w.t.) created

    with a blast when Musa bin Imran hit the rock with his staff, which is twelve.

    Their number is equal to the number of the chiefs of Bani Israel, as Allah(S.w.t.) says in the Qur'an,

    We raised from among them twelve chiefs" (5:12)

    Therefore Jabir, the Imams are twelve. The first one is Ali bin Abi Taleb

    (A.s.) and the last one is Mahdi Al-Qaem (A.t.f.s.).

    of Allah (S.w.t.) .

    Embracing Ali (A.s.) is exactly like embracing me, and embracing me is like
