سُوۡرَةُ السَّجدَة
بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
قُلۡ يَتَوَفَّٮٰكُم مَّلَكُ ٱلۡمَوۡتِ ٱلَّذِى وُكِّلَ بِكُمۡ ثُمَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُمۡ تُرۡجَعُونَ (١١)
Say: The Angel of death will take you who has been entrusted with you, then to your Rabb you will be returned. (11)
1-One day Rasool Allah sawaw was on his pulpit and Ali asws was standing next to him, and put his right hand in his hand and raised it until the whiteness of armpits was exposed and said: O people, beware, no doubt Allah is your Rabb, and Mohammad sawaw is your Nabi, and Islam is your Deen, and Ali asws is your Hadi, and he is my Wasi, and my Khalifa after me, Ali asws is my arm, and my trustee on revelation of my Rabb. And my Rabb has not bestowed me any merit except similar to it specified for Ali asws. Allah does not accept any Farz (obligation) from anyone except with the love of Ali bin Abi Talib asws. When I went to visit heavens and reached near Arsh, there was a curtain of green Zabarjad, so the voice came, “Ya Mohammad sawaw, raise it” so I raised it and there was an Angel and the world was in front of his eyes, and he was having a tablet in his hands which he was looking. Jibrael (a.s.) said: Ya Mohammad sawaw, this is Izrael (a.s.) the Angel of death. I said: Assalamo Alaika O my friend the Angel of death. So he said: Wa Alaikassalam O Seal of the Prophets sawaw, how is your son of uncle Ali bin Abi Talib asws? I said: My friend the Angel of death, do you know him? He said: How I should not know him, Ya Mohammad sawaw, I swear by Him Who raised you as Nabi with Haqq, and made Mustafa Rasool sawaw, I know your cousin brother Wasi asws just as I know you as Nabi sawaw, and why it should not be like that, because no doubt Allah has delegated me to capture spirits of all the creations except your Rooh and Rooh of Ali asws, because Allah calls you both to Him by His Mashiyat, as He wishes and decides. (al-Burhan, v6, p197)
Lesson:
1-Masumeen asws are before life and death was created, and they are Wajhullah and Mashiyatullah, for which there is no death & destruction. They are Hazir Nazir, sometime they reveal themselves and sometimes they are concealed from the sight of the creations.
2-If any human (who is created from clay) gives life for Deen of Mohammad sawaw, everyone believes that he is martyred & alive and get food as well, and no one doubts because it is written in the Quran. But if you say that Masumeen asws are Hazir Nazir and they are helper & provider, then death is visible on the face of Muqassir Mulla and he gets colics. Ignorant does not know that perpetuation of universe is the proof of Masumeen being Hazir Nazir, because universe can not exist without them.
3-Rasool Allah sawaw repeatedly announced Walayat-e-Ali asws on thousands of occasions from Dawat Zul Asheera to Ghadeer-e-Khum until incident of Pen & Paper. But Muqassir Mulla could not get anything except doom.
أَفَمَن كَانَ مُؤۡمِنً۬ا كَمَن كَانَ فَاسِقً۬اۚ لَّا يَسۡتَوُ ۥنَ (١٨) أَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ فَلَهُمۡ جَنَّـٰتُ ٱلۡمَأۡوَىٰ نُزُلاَۢ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ (١٩) وَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ فَسَقُواْ فَمَأۡوَٮٰهُمُ ٱلنَّارُۖ كُلَّمَآ أَرَادُوٓاْ أَن يَخۡرُجُواْ مِنۡهآ أُعِيدُواْ فِيها وَقِيلَ لَهُمۡ ذُوقُواْ عَذَابَ ٱلنَّارِ ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ (٢٠)
Then is he who is a believer like one who is defiantly disobedient? They are not equal. (18) As for those who believe and do good deeds, for them are the Gardens of Refuge as welcome for what they used to do. (19) And as for those who defiantly disobeyed, their shelter is the Fire. Everytime they want to emerge from it, they will be returned to it. And it will be said to them: Taste the punishment of the Fire which you used to deny. (20)
1-Imam Mohammad Baqir asws said about these verses: The matter is that Waleed bin Uqbah bin Abi Moeet started arguing with Ali bin Abi Talib asws, and Waleed bin Uqbah the Fasiq said: By God, I am more eloquent in language than you, and more accurate in aiming in javelin throwing, and more worthy of being army chief than you. Maola Ali asws said: Shut up, certainly you are Fasiq. At that moment Allah revealed these verses. (al-Burhan, v6, p205)
Lesson:
1-Imam Hassan Mujtaba asws also said to Waleed bin Uqbah Fasiq while he was sitting in the court of Shaam: Maola Ali asws whipped you eighty times for drinking alcohol, and caught & killed your father in front of Rasool Allah sawaw in the battle of Badar, and Allah Azza wa Jalla has called Ali asws as Momin in verses, and named you Fasiq.
2-It means that who competes with Maola Ali asws, he is Fasiq and corrupt. Everyone knows that Maola Ali asws is Ayatul Kubra and Hujjatullah allal Khalq. We recite Ziyarat of Amirul Momineen asws “Assalamo Alaika Ya Ayatullah al-Uzma”, which is quoted in Mafateh al-Jinnan. Now anybody who claims that he is Ayatollah Al-Uzma, or someone says that he is Hujjatullah allal Khalq, or anyone says that he is on Walayat of Muqassir Mulla, then isn’t he Fasiq by competing with Masumeen asws? There is no chance to enter Paradise after competing with Maola Ali asws. But on the day of Qiyamah deniers of Walayat-e-Ali asws will see triangular shade (Mursalat, v30) which they will think as paradise, when they will go under it, Fire will rain on them.
وَلَنُذِيقَنَّهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ٱلۡأَدۡنَىٰ دُونَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ٱلۡأَكۡبَرِ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَرۡجِعُونَ (٢١)
And verily We make them taste the nearer punishment besides the greater punishment, that perhaps they will return. (21)
1-About the saying of Allah, “And verily We make them taste the nearer punishment” said: Punishment with sword in Raj’at, and saying of Allah, “so that they will return” means that they will return in Raj’at so that they should be punished. (Tafseer Qummi, p527) (al-Burhan, v6, p208)
Lesson:
1-Opponents of Walayat-e-Ali asws will be punished in the grave, then punishment in Raj’at, punishment on the day of Qiyamah as well, then punishment in the lowest level of Hell locked in the boxes of Fire disfigured in the form of donkeys.
2-In spite of so many clear Ayaat & Ahadees, we can not understand the courage of Nasibi Muqassir that he talks nonsense about Masumeen asws, or perhaps Shaitan is encouraging him by false hopes and by showing his evil-deeds adorable, saying: Look you are very very pious & peaceful yourself, leave aside equality of an infallible, in fact you are higher in grade than the Prophets (a.s.) of Bani Israel.
وَجَعَلۡنَا مِنۡهمۡ أَٮِٕمَّةً۬ يَهۡدُونَ بِأَمۡرِنَا لَمَّا صَبَرُواْۖ وَکانُواْ بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا يُوقِنُونَ (٢٤)
And We appointed Imams among them who guide with Our Amr (command) when they were patient and believed firmly in Our Ayaat. (24)
See Tafseer of this verse under verse no.41 of Sura Qassas.
وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَـٰذَا ٱلۡفَتۡحُ إِن کنتُمۡ صَـٰدِقِينَ (٢٨) قُلۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَتۡحِ لَا يَنفَعُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓاْ إِيمَـٰنُهُمۡ وَلَا هُمۡ يُنظَرُونَ (٢٩) فَأَعۡرِضۡ عَنۡهُمۡ وَٱنتَظِرۡ إِنَّهُم مُّنتَظِرُونَ (٣٠)
And they say: When will be this victory if you are truthful? (28) Say: On the day of the victory the faith of those who disbelieve (and who then will believe) will not benefit them, neither will they be reprieved. (29) So turn away from them, and wait, indeed they are awaiting (as well). (30)
1-Imam Jafar Sadiq asws said about the saying of Allah Azza wa Jalla: The day of Victory is that day when the world be be under occupation of Qaim asws. On that day believing of anyone will not benefit him who was not Momin before. And the faith of those people will benefit them who believe in this victory, and they have great honour & respect near Allah, and they will be beautified on the day of Qiyamah and they will be sent to Paradise, and Hell will be kept hidden from them, and this is the reward for the lovers of Amirul Momineen asws and his holy progeny’s asws lovers. (al-Burhan, v6, p210)
Lesson:
1-To repent & believe only after seeing punishment is not acceptable, just as when Firoun was drowing he expressed Eman but time was gone. Similarly when Imam Qaim asws will reappear, and opponents of Walayat will see the nearer punishment, then immediately they will express Eman by testifying Walayat but then they will not be reprieved.
So still there is time that one should reform by doing Taqleed & Ata’at of only Hazir Nazir Masumeen asws who are sent down by Allah. Marifat & testimony of Walayat-e-Ali asws is not only belief, it is good deed as well, and salvation and intercession and eternal success too, and this is the Pleasure of Allah and wish of Rasool Allah sawaw.
