Query by Scorpiion brother

salam bro,
thanks for your swift and elaborate reply...
sorry to say....BUT...you have failed to provide direct hadiths....
furthermore...your conclusions are derived from assumption rather than straight forward stuff...
your very long explanation largely consisted about the obedience to the Holy Porphet(sawa) and the Holy Imams(as)....but you havent provided a single hadith from them. dear bro, apart from assumptions; if you DONOT have any hadiths to provide, then atleast post any ruling of our marja and ayatollahs...who i beleive are very knowledgeable. As far as grand ayatollah sistaani is concerned... i donot think its wise to put him in dim light without proving yourself....but if you are an ayatollah yourself then its a different story...furthermore, i donot think you do TAQLEED.....correct me if i'm wrong and let me know which ayatollah do you follow....
khudahafiz

<o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p>Salam alai kum, Ya Ali(a.s.) madad,

Dear bro scorpiion, I once again mentioning the reference may please be seen Furooh – e – Kafi volume 5, Bihar – Al – Anwar, Ad – Damatus – Sakiba by Agha Baqar Dahdashti Bahbani Najfi (ra) Volume 2, page 544 Urdu and Rasoom – Ush – Sharayya Fi Mizan Asharayya by Mohammed Hasnain Sabqi Najfi (ra) etc.  Secondly if you consider Shia as superior than non Shias, which has been recorded even in Sunni Books I give here a reference of Sunni commentrator Muhammad bin Ali narrates in Tafsir ibne Jarir, Volume 33 page 146 (Cairo edition) that the Prophet (saww) said: "The best of creations are you Ali and your Shi'as". so when the non shias admits that shias  are superior then  no more explanation required on this issue.  And the issue of Kuff is clear in the Verses and also in the traditions.  And for wife her husband is her "Kafeel" ( Kafeel = sponsor, guardian, a person who leads, a person who take care in all  aspect, who takes decission for, etc.) and this is also the rule by the god that "Mafzool" will not be a kafeel to "Afzal".  Inshallah I will try to convince you with more references if with this too you have not convinced.    Now to you another question regarding Whether I do Taqleed or Not, and if so of which Ayethullah?  Brother how could I deny Taqleed and become a "Kafir", no, "Taqleed" is unavoidable (lazim) "Wajib" is different and "Lazim" is quite different such as "Furu-e-Deen" are Wajib, and "Usool-e-Deen" are Lazim, among the "Furu-e-Deen" the top one is "Namaz" which is "Wajib" but it is after attaining to the age of "baligh" otherwise it is "sakith", for women few days "sakith", it is sakith when you are in journey, it is also sakith upon a metally disabled person, etc.  But the lazim is Usool-e-Deen, on any moment any situation any circumstances it can not be omited (sakith), I think here I could described a little bit the difference between "Wajib" and "Lazim", and I am sure you may be knowing more and more on this issue, please do not think otherwise, as here it requires so I did.  And brother I do Taqleed of "Ayethullah"  Now we will see who are the "Ayethullahs"  The meaning of this word is "Sign of Allah" and many a times in the 6666 Verses of Quran this word has come  for an example (1) <a title="" name="-1">Al-Baqara <2:252> Arabi :Tilka ayatu Allahi natlooha AAalayka bialhaqqi wainnaka lamina almursaleena 2:252 These are the SIGNS OF ALLAH. we rehearse them to thee in truth: verily Thou art one of the apostles. (2) Min qablu hudan lilnnasi waanzala alfurqana inna allatheena kafaroo biayati Allahi lahum AAathabun shadeedun waAllahu AAazeezun thoo intiqami  3:4 Then those who reject Faith in the SIGNS OF ALLAH will suffer the severest penalty, and Allah is Exalted in Might, Lord of Retribution. (3) Inna allatheena yakfuroona biayati Allahi wayaqtuloona alnnabiyyeena bighayri haqqin wayaqtuloona allatheena yamuroona bialqisti mina alnnasi fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin 3:21 As to those who deny the SIGNS OF ALLAH and in defiance of right, slay the prophets, and slay those who teach just dealing with mankind, announce to them a grievous penalty. (4) Ya ahla alkitabi <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">lima</st1:City></st1:place> takfuroona biayati Allahi waantum tashhadoona 3:70 Ye People of the Book! Why reject ye the SIGNS OF ALLAH, of which ye are (Yourselves) witnesses? (5) Alam tara ila allatheena yujadiloona fee ayati Allahi anna yusrafoona40:69 Seest thou not those that dispute concerning the SIGNS OF ALLAH. How are they turned away (from Reality)?-   So brother now whom do you consider as ayethullahs, infallibles or fallibles.  And one thing is clear infallibles are only 14, and more over we see in “Manla yazarul Faqi  by Shaik-e-Sadooq Vol.II a tradition of Imam-e-Jafer-e-Sadiq (a.s.) “NAHNO AYETHULLAH” and in the same book you will find that among 14 infallibles only Moula Ali(a.s.) is Ayethullah-ul-Uzmah.  So I do taqleed of infallible Ayethullah of this period.  And particularly if you concentrate on this verse of  3:70 Ye People of the Book! Why reject ye the SIGNS OF ALLAH, of which ye are (Yourselves) witnesses? You can easily understand that during the era of souls (Aalem-e-Arva) whom we witnesses.  More over there are many verses where we have been asked not to follow those who are fallibles.  Please see Sura-e-Furqaan.<o:p></o:p>

My father (d) related to us from Abdullah bin al-Hussein al-Mueddib from Ahmed bin Ali al-Isfahani from Mohammed bin Aslam at-Tusi from Abu Rajaa from Hemmad bin Zaid from Abdirrahman as-Sarraj from Nafii that Ibn Omar said: When we asked him about Ali bin Abi Talib, the Prophet (s) was angry and said:
Why do some people mention that one whose rank in the sight of Allah is as same as mine?1 He who loves Ali loves me, and Allah will accept him who loves me, and whomever Allah accepts will be rewarded with Paradise.
Whoever loves Ali will not depart this world before he drinks from the Divine River of Kawthar, eats from the Divine Tree of Tuba, and sees his place in Paradise. Whoever loves Ali will have his prayers, fasting, and worship accepted and will have his supplications responded.
Whoever loves Ali, the angels will seek Allah's forgiveness for him and the eight portals of Paradise will all be opened before him so that he can choose the one which takes him to Paradise with being maintained to the Judgment.
Whoever loves Ali, Allah will give him his record (of deeds) in his right hand2 and will call him to account in the same way as He calls His prophets.
Whoever loves Ali; Allah will alleviate for him the agonies of death and will change his grave into a garden of Paradise.
Whoever loves Ali, Allah will give him in marriage women of Paradise as many as the arteries of his body, will grant him the right to intercede for eighty individuals from his family members, and will give him women and cities of Paradise as many as the hairs of his body.3 Whoever loves Ali, Allah will send the Angel of Death to him in the same way as He sends him to the prophets, will save him from the horrible interrogation of Munkar and Nakeer, will lighten his heart, will whiten his face, and will join him with Hamza; the master of the shahids.4
Whoever loves Ali, Allah will save him from the fire (of Hell.)
Whoever loves Ali, Allah will place wisdom in his heart firmly, will make the truth slide on his tongue, and will open before him the doors to His mercy.
Whoever loves Ali will be called 'the prisoner of Allah' in the heavens and the earth.5
Whoever loves Ali, an angel from beneath the Divine Throne will call at him: O servant of Allah, make a new start, for Allah has forgiven all of your sins. Whoever loves Ali will attend on the Day of Resurrection with a face as bright as the full moon.
Whoever loves Ali will be crowned and will be dressed the garment of honor.
Whoever loves Ali will pass the Path like the swift lightning.
Whoever loves Ali will be granted an acquittance from Hell, a permit to pass the Path, and a security against the punishment. Besides, no record of judgment will be opened for him, no balance (for weighing his good acts and evil acts for identifying which one is more) will be maintained for him, and it will be said to him, 'Enter Paradise without judgment.'
Whoever loves Ali, the angels will shake hands with him, the prophets will visit him, and Allah will settle all of his needs.
Whoever loves the family of Mohammed will be saved from the Judgment, the Balance, and the Path. Whoever dies on the love for the family of Mohammed, I guarantee for him a place in Paradise with the prophets.6
Whoever dies on the hatred for the family of Mohammed will never smell the essence of Paradise.
(Abu Rajaa commented: Hemmad bin Zaid used to take pride in this, for he considered it as the only hope.)

حدّثنا أبي رضى الله عنه، قال: حدّثنا عبد الله بن الحسين المؤدّب، عن أحمد بن عليّ الأصفهاني، عن محمّد بن أسلم الطوسي، قال: حدّثنا أبو رجاء عن حمّاد بن زيد، عن عبد الرحمن السرّاج عن نافع، عن ابن عمر قال: سألنا النبي صلّى الله عليه وآله عن علي بن أبي طالب عليه السلام؟ فغضب صلّى الله عليه وآله ثمّ قال:
ما بال أقوام يذكرون مَن منزلته مِن الله كمنزلتي? ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً فقد أحبّني، ومن أحبّني فقد رضي الله عنه، ومن رضي الله عنه كافأه الجنّة.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً لا يخرج من الدنيا حتّى يشرب من الكوثر، ويأكل من طوبى، ويرى مكانه في الجنّة.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً قبل صلاته وصيامه وقيامه، واستجاب له دعاءه.
ألا ومن أحب عليّاً استغفرت له الملائكة وفتحت له أبواب الجنّة الثمانية يدخلها من أيّ باب شاء بغير حساب.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً أعطاه الله كتابه بيمينه وحاسبه حساب الأنبياء.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً هوّن الله عليه سكرات الموت، وجعل قبره روضة من رياض الجنّة.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً أعطاه الله بكلّ عرق في بدنه حوراء، وشفّع في ثمانين من أهل بيته، وله بكلّ شعرة في بدنه حوراء ومدينة في الجنّة.
ألا ومن أحب عليّاً بعث الله إليه ملك الموت كما يبعث إلى الأنبياء، ودفع الله عنه هول منكر ونكير، ونوّر قلبه وبيّض وجهه، وكان مع حمزة سيّد الشهداء.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً نجّاه الله من النار.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً أثبت الله في قلبه الحكمة، وأجرى على لسانه الصواب، وفتح الله عليه أبواب الرحمة.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً سمّي في السماوات والأرض أسير الله.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً ناداه ملك من تحت العرش: يا عبد الله استأنف العمل، فقد غفر الله لك الذنوب كلّها.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً جاء يوم القيامة ووجهه كالقمر ليلة البدر.
ألا ومن أحب عليّاً وضع على رأسه تاج الملك، واُلبس حلّة الكرامة.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً جاز على الصراط كالبرق الخاطف.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً كتب له براءة من النار وجواز على الصراط وأمان من العذاب ولم ينشر له ديوان ولم ينصب له ميزان وقيل له: ادخل الجنّة بلا حساب.
ألا ومن أحبّ عليّاً صافحته الملائكة وزارته الأنبياء وقضى الله له كلّ حاجة.
ألا ومن أحبّ آل محمد أمِنَ من الحساب، والميزان، والصراط.
ألا ومن مات على حبّ آل محمد فأنا كفيله بالجنّة مع الأنبياء.
ألا ومن مات على بغض آل محمد لم يشمّ رائحة الجنّة.
قال أبو رجاء: كان حمّاد بن زيد يفتخر بهذا ويقول هو الأمل

1. Ibn Hagar, in his book titled as-Sawaaiq ul-Muhriqa; 108, records a similar narration, but there is an addition in its beginning and distortion in its middle. Refer also to ar-Riyadh un-Nadhira; 2:162 2. This is an indication to Allah's saying in the Quran: "On the day when We call every nation with their leaders, those whose record of deeds are given to their right hands will read the book and the least wrong will not be done to them." 17:71) 3. The previous statements are recorded in al-Khawarzmi's al-Manaqib; 43. 4. Hamza (bin Abdul-Muttalib) is the Prophet's uncle and one of the most celebrated personalities of Islam. He was martyred during the battle of Uhud. 5. In Bihar ul-Anwar, this statement is recorded in the following form: "Whoever loves Ali, the inhabitants of the heavens will call him 'the prisoner of Allah on the earth.' 6. Refer to al-Khawarzmi's al-Manaqib; 43. 7. Refer to Mietu Manqaba; Ibn Shathan 55 M.37 and 95, Taawil ul-Aayat; 824, Bisharat ul-Mustafa; 36-8, Keshf ul-Ghumma; 1:104, Irshad ul-Quloub; 225, A'lam ud-Din; 464, Nahj ul-Haqq; 260, Keshf ul-Yaqin; 227, Bihar ul-Anwar; 7:221 H.133, 39:277-8 H.55, and 68:126

Abdullah bin Mohammed bin Abdul-Wahab narrated to us from Hemmad bin Yazid from Ayyoub from Attaa from Ibn Abbas that the Prophet (s) said:The love for Ali bin Abi Talib consumes the evil deeds in the same way as fire consumes wood"

 

حدّثنا عبد الله بن محمّد بن عبد الوهاب، قال: حدّثنا حمّاد بن يزيد، عن أيّوب عن عطاء، عن ابن عبّاس، قال: قال رسول الله صلّى الله عليه وآلها:
حبّ عليّ بن أبي طالب يأكل السيّئات كما تأكل النار "

Refer to al-Manaqib; Ibn Shahrashoub 3:198, Maqssad ur-Raghib; 3 (manuscript), as-Sirat ul-Mustaqeem; 1:198, Taawil ul-Aayat; 827. In his kenz ul-Ummal; al-Muttaqi al-Hindi records a similar narration, which is also recorded in Thakhaair ul-Uqba; 91, Kifayat ul-Talib; 184-5. They all related the narration to Ibn Abbas and Meaath.

Abu Tharr (d) related: I saw the Prophet (s) strike on the shoulder of Ali bin Abi Talib (a) and say: O Ali, he who loves us is the true Arab and he who hates us is the infidel. Our Shia are the masters, the highborn, the honorable, and the legitimate. Only are our Shia and we following the religion of Abraham (a). The remaining people are all out of it -i.e. the religion of Abraham-. Allah and His angels are surely destroying the evil deeds of our Shia in the same way as an axe destroys the building.


عن أبي ذر رضي الله عنه، قال: رأيت رسول الله صلّى الله عليه وآله وقد ضرب كتف عليّ بن أبي طالب عليه السلام بيده وقال: يا عليّ، من أحبّنا فهو العربيّ، ومن أبغضنا فهو العِلْج، فشيعتنا أهل البيوتات والمعادن والشرف، ومن كان مولده صحيحاً. وما على ملّة إبراهيم عليه السلام إلاّ نحن وشيعتنا وسائر الناس منها براء، إن الله وملائكته يهدمون سيّئات شيعتنا كما يهدم القوم البنيان.
