AMIRAL MOMININ ALI (AS)

Muhammad ibn ya‘qub al-Kulayni has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Hassan and Ali ibn Muhammad from Sahl ibn Ziyad from ibn Mahbub from ibn Al-Ri’ab from Bukayr ibn ‘A‘yan who has said the following. “Abu Ja‘far  used to say, “Allah made our Shi‘a (followers) to acknowledge our Wilaya Leadership with Divine Authority) when they were only in the realm of small particles. It was the day when Allah made the small particles to acknowledge Him as the Lord and Muhammad ﷺ as His prophet.”

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْكُلَيْنِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ وَعَلِيِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ ابْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ أَعْيَنَ قَالَ كَانَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ  يَقُولُ إِنَّ الله أَخَذَ مِيثَاقَ شِيعَتِنَا بِالْوَلايَةِ وَهُمْ ذَرٌّ يَوْمَ أَخَذَ الْمِيثَاقَ عَلَى الذَّرِّ وَالاقْرَارَ لَهُ بِالرُّبُوبِيَّةِ وَلِمُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ بِالنُّبُوَّةِ.

Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Muhammad ibn ’Isma‘il ibn Bazi‘ from Salih ibn ‘Uqba from ‘Abdallah ibn Muhammad al-Ja‘fari from abu Ja‘far  and ‘Uqba from abu Ja‘far  who has said the following. “Allah created the creatures. He created whatever He loved from whatever He loved. The most beloved to Him He created from the clay of paradise. He created whatever He disliked from whatever He disliked. Thus, the most disliked to Him He created from the clay of fire. Then He sent them to the shadow.” I asked him, “What is the shadow?” The Imam  said, “Have you not seen your own shadow in the sun that when look at it is nothing. Allah then sent to them the prophets who called them to acknowledge Allah as the creator. This is the meaning of His words. “(Muhammad), if you ask them, “Who had created them (idols)?” They will certainly say, “God has created them.. .”? (43:87) Then He called them to acknowledge the prophets. Some of them acknowledged and other did not acknowledge. Then He called them to acknowledge our Wilaya. Those whom He loved, by Allah, acknowledged and those whom He disliked did not acknowledge as He has said, “However, how could the people believe what they had previously called lies?. .” (0:74) Abu Ja‘far  then said, “Refusal to acknowledge was then and there.”

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْجَعْفَرِيِّ عَنْ ابي جعفر  وَعَنْ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ ابي جعفر  قَالَ إِنَّ الله خَلَقَ الْخَلْقَ فَخَلَقَ مَا أَحَبَّ مِمَّا أَحَبَّ وَكَانَ مَا أَحَبَّ أَنْ خَلَقَهُ مِنْ طِينَةِ الْجَنَّةِ وَخَلَقَ مَا أَبْغَضَ مِمَّا أَبْغَضَ وَكَانَ مَا أَبْغَضَ أَنْ خَلَقَهُ مِنْ طِينَةِ النَّارِ ثُمَّ بَعَثَهُمْ فِي الظِّلالِ فَقُلْتُ وَأَيُّ شَيْ‏ءٍ الظِّلالُ قَالَ أَ لَمْ تَرَ إِلَى ظِلِّكَ فِي الشَّمْسِ شَيْ‏ءٌ وَلَيْسَ بِشَيْ‏ءٍ ثُمَّ بَعَثَ الله فِيهِمُ النَّبِيِّينَ يَدْعُونَهُمْ إِلَى الاقْرَارِ بِالله وَهُوَ قَوْلُهُ وَلَئِنْ سَأَلْتَهُمْ مَنْ خَلَقَهُمْ لَيَقُولُنَّ الله ثُمَّ دَعَاهُمْ إِلَى الاقْرَارِ بِالنَّبِيِّينَ فَأَقَرَّ بَعْضُهُمْ وَأَنْكَرَ بَعْضُهُمْ ثُمَّ دَعَاهُمْ إِلَى وَلايَتِنَا فَأَقَرَّ بِهَا وَالله مَنْ أَحَبَّ وَأَنْكَرَهَا مَنْ أَبْغَضَ وَهُوَ قَوْلُهُ فَما كانُوا لِيُؤْمِنُوا بِما كَذَّبُوا بِهِ مِنْ قَبْلُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ  كَانَ التَّكْذِيبُ ثَمَّ.

Muhammad b. Yahya has narrated from Salama b. al-Khattab from Ali b. Sayf from al-‘Abbas b. ‘Amir from Ahmad b. Rizq al-Ghumushani from Muhammad b. ‘Abd al-Rahman from Abi ‘Abdillah  who has said the following: “Our Wilaya is the Wilaya of Allah without which no prophet was ever sent.”

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ سَيْفٍ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ رِزْقٍ الْغُمْشَانِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله  قَالَ وَلايَتُنَا وَلايَةُ الله الَّتِي لَمْ يَبْعَثْ نَبِيّاً قَطُّ إِلا بِهَا.

Mohammad b. Yahya from Abdullah b. Mohammad b. ‘Isa from Mohammad b. Abdul Hamid from Yunus b. Ya’qub, from ‘Abdul A‘la who said: I heard Aba ‘Abdillah  saying: “There has never been a prophet who came except with the knowledge of our rights and our preeminence over others.”

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الاعْلَى قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله  يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ جَاءَ قَطُّ إِلا بِمَعْرِفَةِ حَقِّنَا وَتَفْضِيلِنَا عَلَى مَنْ سِوَانَا.

Muhammad b. Yahya, from Ahmad b. Muhammad b. ‘Isa from Muhammad b. Isma’il b. Bazi‘, from Muhammad b. al-Fudayl, from Abu al-Sabbah al-Kinanii from Abu Ja’far  who said: I heard him say: “By Allah, there are seventy rows of angels in the sky. If all the people on Earth were to gather, they could not count the number of each row of angels, and indeed, they believe in our Wilayah.”

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْفُضَيْلِ عَنْ أَبِي الصَّبَّاحِ الْكِنَانِيِّ عَنْ ابي جعفر  قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ وَالله إِنَّ فِي السَّمَاءِ لَسَبْعِينَ صَفّاً مِنَ الْمَلائِكَةِ لَوِ اجْتَمَعَ أَهْلُ الارْضِ كُلُّهُمْ يُحْصُونَ عَدَدَ كُلِّ صَفٍّ مِنْهُمْ مَا أَحْصَوْهُمْ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَيَدِينُونَ بِوَلايَتِنَا.

Muhammad, from Ahmad b. Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Muhammad b. al-Fudayl, from Abu al-Hasan  who said. “The Wilayah of Ali  is written in all the scriptures of the prophets, and Allah has never sent a messenger except with the prophethood of Muhammad ﷺ and the succession of Ali .”

مُحَمَّدٌ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْفُضَيْلِ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ  قَالَ وَلايَةُ علي  مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي جَمِيعِ صُحُفِ الانْبِيَاءِ وَلَنْ يَبْعَثَ الله رَسُولاً إِلا بِنُبُوَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ وَوَصِيِّهِ عَلِيٍّ 

Al-Hussein b. Muhammad, from Mu‘alla b. Muhammad, from Muhammad b. Jumhoor who said: Yunus narrated to us from Hammad b. Uthman from Al-Fudayl b. Yasar from Abu Ja’far  who said: “Indeed, Allah, Mighty and Majestic, appointed Ali  as a sign between Him and His creation. Whoever acknowledges him is a believer, and whoever denies him is an unbeliever. Whoever is ignorant of him is misguided, and whoever who sets up something alongside him is a polytheist. Whoever comes with his Wilayah will enter Paradise.”

الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُمْهُورٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنِ الْفُضَيْلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ ابي جعفر  قَالَ إِنَّ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ نَصَبَ عَلِيّاً  عَلَماً بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ خَلْقِهِ فَمَنْ عَرَفَهُ كَانَ مُؤْمِناً وَمَنْ أَنْكَرَهُ كَانَ كَافِراً وَمَنْ جَهِلَهُ كَانَ ضَالاً وَمَنْ نَصَبَ مَعَهُ شَيْئاً كَانَ مُشْرِكاً وَمَنْ جَاءَ بِوَلايَتِهِ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ.
