سُوۡرَةُ الاٴعرَاف
بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
قَالَ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَلَّا تَسۡجُدَ إِذۡ أَمَرۡتُكَۖ قَالَ أَنَا۟ خَيۡرٌ۬ مِّنۡهُ خَلَقۡتَنِى مِن نَّارٍ۬ وَخَلَقۡتَهُ ۥ مِن طِينٍ۬ (١٢)
Said He: What prevented you from doing Sajdah when I commanded you? (Iblees) said: I am better than him, You created me from fire and created him from clay. (12)
1-Numan came to Imam Jafar Sadiq asws, Imam asws asked him: I came to know that you do Qiyas (guess)? He said: Yes. Imam asws said: Never do Qiyas because who did Qiyas first of all, he is Iblees. And if he would have done Qiyas on Nooraniat of Adam (a.s.) and Nariat of Naar, then he would have known the superiority & purity of Noor and Naar on each other. (al-Burhan, v3, p138)
Lesson:
1-After placing the Noor of Mohammad-o-Aal-e-Mohammad asws in the forehead of Adam (a.s.), Allah commanded infallible Angels (a.s.) to do Sajdah. Shaitan deduced from Qiyas & Ijtihad that he is superior himself. Qiyas (guess), Rai (opinion of scholar), Zunn-e-ijtihadi (conjecture with Ijtihad), Daleel-e-Aqli (logical reasoning), deducing with Ilmul-Usul & Mantiq, etc. is all playing game with words to occupy different factions, otherwise all of them means the same and are forbidden in Deen of Allah.
2-Sajdah is superior part of Salaah, children of Iblees are also busy in the same task to prevent people to do Zikr of Aal-e-Mohammad asws in Salaah. Moreover Muqassir Mulla is acting on Sunnah of Iblees i.e. by his Zunn & Qiyas he thinks that he is superior to the Prophets (a.s.) of Bani Israeel.
3-Iblees preferred his Qiyas and rejected the commandment of Allah, similarly children of Iblees are rejecting Quran & Hadees but accept Fatawa of Harisi Mulla.
قَالَ فَبِمَآ أَغۡوَيۡتَنِى لَأَقۡعُدَنَّ لَهُمۡ صِرَاطَكَ ٱلۡمُسۡتَقِيمَ (١٦) ثُمَّ لَأَتِيَنَّهُم مِّنۢ بَيۡنِ أَيۡدِيهمۡ وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِمۡ وَعَنۡ أَيۡمَـٰنِهمۡ وَعَن شَمَآٮِٕلِهِمۡۖ وَلَا تَجِدُ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ شَـٰكِرِينَ (١٧) قَالَ ٱخۡرُجۡ مِنۡها مَذۡءُومً۬ا مَّدۡحُورً۬اۖ لَّمَن تَبِعَكَ مِنۡهمۡ لَأَمۡلَأَنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنكُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ (١٨ (
(Shaitan) said: Now, because You have sent me astray, I will surely sit in ambush for them (mankind) on Your Straight Path. (16) Then I will come upon them (to attack) from before them and from behind them and from their right and from their left, and You will not find most of them grateful (to You). (17) Said He: Get out from here, degraded, banished. Whoever follows you among them, surely I will fill hell with you all together. (18)
1-Companion Zarara asked about this verse, then Imam Mohammad Baqir asws said: O Zarara, he is only and only sitting to prevent you and your companions, because he has finished his job with the others. (al-Burhan, v3, p138)
Lesson:
1-Straight Path is path of Walayat-e-Ali asws, and Shaitan is only sitting in ambush for Shias of Maola Ali asws, because they are only on Sirat-e-Mustaqeem. Who is opposing Walayat-e-Ali asws from any aspect, Shaitan has already finished his job on him. Will Shaitan come to Shias to attack with his real face? No! He will come as reformer, as Imam Hassan Askari asws explained that they (agents of Iblees) will gain some of our knowledge from Shia Madaris, then they will earn fame among our weak-faith Shias, then they will start decreasing splendor of Masumeen asws and tell lies about them. Shian-e-Ali asws should be aware of such Shaitans, who disguise by wearing turban and cloak, and then misguide people from Sirat-e-Mustaqeem of Walayat-e-Ali asws. Majority will be trapped in their net, and will not be able to escape Azaab.
2-Iblees attacks from the front i.e. he makes Hereafter lighter in their sight, e.g. to get paradise on the basis of good deeds like Salaah and Saom without Walayat-e-Ali asws, and to ignore intercession of Masumeen asws. He attacks from behind e.g. to snatch wealth from weak-faith Shias in the name of Deen to spend in luxury and vulgarity. Attack from right e.g. to ruin the affairs & matters of Deen by excluding Walayat-e-Ali asws from them, and to show misguidance as pleasing to them, for example the solution of so-called modern issues (immorality) is very attractive for Usuli Muqallideen. To make public doubtful and suspicious by including Walayat-e-Faqeh in Walayat-e-Masumeen asws. Attack from the left e.g. to make personal desires and pleasures prevailing like declaring Haraam things & deeds as Halaal.
قُلۡ أَمَرَ رَبِّى بِٱلۡقِسۡطِۖ وَأَقِيمُواْ وُجُوهَكُمۡ عِندَ کلِّ مَسۡجِدٍ۬ وَٱدۡعُوهُ مُخۡلِصِينَ لَهُ ٱلدِّينَۚ كَمَا بَدَأَكُمۡ تَعُودُونَ (٢٩) فَرِيقًا هَدَىٰ وَفَرِيقًا حَقَّ عَلَيۡهمُ ٱلضَّلَـٰلَةُۗ إِنَّهُمُ ٱتَّخَذُواْ ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينَ أَوۡلِيَآءَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ وَيَحۡسَبُونَ أَنَّهم مُّهۡتَدُونَ (٣٠)
Say: My Rabb commands justice. And direct your faces upright at every Masjid and call upon Him, making Deen pure for Him (only). Just as He originated you, you will return (to Him). (29) A group He guided, and a group deserved (to be in) error, because surely they choose Shaitans as guardians instead of Allah and they suppose that they are guided. (30)
1-About the saying of Allah, “Just as He originated you, you will return, a group He guided and a group deserved error” Imam Mohammad Baqir asws said: When Allah created them, created them Momin & Kafir, Shaqi & Saeed, and similarly they will return on the day of Qiyamah guided & misguided ones. Allah says, “surely they chose Shaitans as guardians instead of Allah and they think that they are guided” and they are Qadria sect who say that there is no Qadr (fate) and they think that they have control over guidance and misguidance, and it depends on them whether they become guided ones or adopt misguidance, and they are the Majoosi of this Ummah, and these enemies of Allah has belied Mashiyat & Qudrat of Allah. “As He originated you, you will return” means who was created Shaqi (evil hearted) on the day of creation, same he will return Shaqi to Him, and who was created Saeed (blessed) on the day of creation, same he will return Saeed to Him. Rasool Allah sawaw said: Shaqi is him who is Shaqi in his mother’s womb as well. (al-Burhan, v3, p147)
2-About the saying of Allah, “Because they chose Shaitans as guardians (Aoliya) instead of Allah” Imam Mohammad Baqir asws said: It means chose unjust Imams as guardians instead of Haqq Imams asws, and they suppose that they are the guided ones. (al-Burhan, v3, p147)
Lesson:
1-Pure Deen is only from Allah which Allah has perfected in the form of Quran and Hadees. Not any Muqassir Mulla has right to interfere with Deen and declare Zunni Fatawa as Deen.
2-Those who have chosen not only one but many Shaitans as their guardians instead of Walayat of Allah (Walayat-e-Masumeen asws), they are doing Shirk in Walayat-e-Elahi, they are Qadria & Majoosi people. They are Shaitans because they become partners with Masumeen by using their Qiyas & Zunn and become Wali of people themselves. And they tell lies about Masumeen asws who are Mashiyat & Qudrat of Allah. They interfere with Deen according to their wishes by interchanging Halaal and Haraam, and suppose that they have control over themselves to become superior to Prophets, and take responsibility of public deeds. They are obviously Majoosi of this Ummah, who leave Walayat of Haqq Imams asws and appoint self-made Imams, who does injustice by issuing Fatawa against Masumeen asws, and moreover consider themselves as Rahber and Hadi of Muslims.
3-As explained above Qadria faith is not right, similarly Jabria faith is not right that man is compelled to do good and bad. Then reward and punishment becomes meaningless. Reality is in between that man gets guidance due to blessing of Allah & guidance of Masumeen asws, for which we should be grateful. While misguidance prevails and surrounds a man due to his own bad deeds, i.e. those who denied Walayat-e-Ali asws willingly in Alam-e-Zarr, they are the Shaqi in this world.
يَـٰبَنِىٓ ءَادَمَ خُذُواْ زِينَتَكُمۡ عِندَ كُلِّ مَسۡجِدٍ۬ وَکلُواْ وَٱشۡرَبُواْ وَلَا تُسۡرِفُوٓاْۚ إِنَّهُ ۥ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُسۡرِفِينَ (٣١)
O Children of Adam! Take your adornment at every Masjid, and eat and drink, but be not extravagant (wasteful). Certainly He does not like extravagants. (31)
1-About the saying of Allah, “Take your adornment at every Masjid” Imam Jafar Sadiq asws said: It means Imams asws. (al-Burhan, v3, p149)
Lesson:
1-Rasool Allah sawaw said: Adorn your Majalis by Zikr-e-Ali asws. So adornment means Zikr of Ali asws and Zikr of Imams asws. It means the adornment of all Ibadaat and Majalis is Zikr of Masumeen asws. Therefore any Ibadat which does not contain Zikr of Ali asws, is ugly and unacceptable.
2-Masjid mean Imam asws. Zeenat (adornment) also means children and Halaal wealth. So it is recommended to request Masumeen asws to bestow sons, well-being, guidance and all other things.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا وَٱسۡتَكۡبَرُواْ عَنۡها لَا تُفَتَّحُ لَهُمۡ أَبۡوَابُ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَلَا يَدۡخُلُونَ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ حَتَّىٰ يَلِجَ ٱلۡجَمَلُ فِى سَمِّ ٱلۡخِيَاطِۚ وَکذَالِكَ نَجۡزِى ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ (٤٠) لَهُم مِّن جَهَنَّمَ مِهَادٌ۬ وَمِن فَوۡقِهِمۡ غَوَاشٍ۬ۚ وَكَذَالِكَ نَجۡزِى ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ (٤١) وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفۡسًا إِلَّا وُسۡعَهَآ أُوْلَـٰٓٮِٕكَ أَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلۡجَنَّةِۖ هُمۡ فِيها خَـٰلِدُونَ (٤٢) وَنَزَعۡنَا مَا فِى صُدُورِهِم مِّنۡ غِلٍّ۬ تَجۡرِى مِن تَحۡتِهمُ ٱلۡأَنۡهـٰرُۖ وَقَالُواْ ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِى هَدَٮٰنَا لِهَـٰذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لِنَهۡتَدِىَ لَوۡلَآ أَنۡ هَدَٮٰنَا ٱللَّهُۖ لَقَدۡ جَآءَتۡ رُسُلُ رَبِّنَا بِٱلۡحَقِّۖ وَنُودُوٓاْ أَن تِلۡكُمُ ٱلۡجَنَّةُ أُورِثۡتُمُوهَا بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ (٤٣)
Indeed, those who belie Our Ayaat and are arrogant toward them, for them the gates of heavens will not be opened, nor will they enter Paradise until a camel enters the eye of a needle, and thus We recompense the criminals. (40) For them will be a bed of Hell, and over them coverings (of Fire), and thus We recompense the wrong-doers. (41) And those who believe and do good works - We charge not any soul except its capacity - those are the companions of Paradise, they will abide therein eternally. (42) And We remove whatever malice may be in their hearts, rivers flow beneath them, and they say: The praise to Allah, Who has guided us to this, and surely we could not have been guided if Allah had not guided us. Verily the Messengers of our Rabb came with Haqq (Truth). And they will be called: This Paradise which you inherited is because of what you used to do. (43)
1-About the saying of Allah, “Every praise to Allah, Who has guided us to this, and surely we could not have been guided if Allah had not guided us” Imam Jafar Sadiq asws said: When it will be the day of Qiyamah then Nabi Akram sawaw and Amirul Momineen asws and Imams asws who are from their progeny will be called, and they will be seated in front of the people. When their Shias will see them, then they will say, “Every praise to Allah, Who has guided us to this, and surely we could not have been guided if Allah had not guided us” meaning that Allah guided us to the Walayat of Amirul Momineen asws and Imams asws who are from his progeny. (al-Burhan, v3, p163)
Lesson:
1-According to Ahadees, who belie Ayaat of Allah and are arrogant towards them, are those people who oppose Walayat-e-Ali asws. It means that who issue Fatawa against Ayatul-Kubra & Ayatul-Uzma of Allah, and then being arrogant and transgressor declare themselves Ayatollah, for them the gates of heavens never open, even if they repent and ask forgiveness weepingly in congregation every Thursday. Salvation is only possible if they leave opposition of Walayat-e-Ali asws and Azadari of Imam-e-Mazloom asws.
2-Walayat-e-Ali asws is not a difficult task because Allah charges a person only according to his capacity. Only one has to leave the beliefs of Shak, Zunn, and Rijs; and to adopt Deen-e-Walayat of Taqwa and Yaqeen.
3-On the day of Qiyamah when Shias will see Masumeen asws, they will spontaneously praise & glorify Allah, Who bestowed them the Ne’mat of Walayat. Shian-e-Ali asws are not proud about their Ibadaat. The minimum reward of Walayat-e-Ali asws is inheritance of Paradise, which is the result of deeds performed on the basis on Walayat-e-Ali asws.
وَنَادَىٰٓ أَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ أَصۡحَـٰبَ ٱلنَّارِ أَن قَدۡ وَجَدۡنَا مَا وَعَدَنَا رَبُّنَا حَقًّ۬ا فَهَلۡ وَجَدتُّم مَّا وَعَدَ رَبُّكُمۡ حَقًّ۬اۖ قَالُواْ نَعَمۡۚ فَأَذَّنَ مُؤَذِّنُۢ بَيۡنَهمۡ أَن لَّعۡنَةُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَى ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ (٤٤) ٱلَّذِينَ يَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَيَبۡغُونَها عِوَجً۬ا وَهُم بِٱلۡأَخِرَةِ كَـٰفِرُونَ (٤٥)
And the companions of the Paradise will call out to the companions of the Fire: Certainly we have found what our Rabb promised us to be True, have you found what your Rabb promised to be True? They will say: Yes. Then an announcer will announce in between them: The curse of Allah is on evil-doers, (44) Who prevent (people) from Sabeel (path) of Allah and sought to make it (seem) crooked (deviated), and they are disbelievers in the Hereafter. (45)
1-While returning from battle of Neharwan, Maola Ali asws delivered a sermon: I am the Announcer (Mo’azzin) in the world and Hereafter, Allah Azza wa Jalla says, “Then a Mo’azzin will announce in between them: The curse of Allah is on Zalimeen” I am that Mo’azzin. And Allah says, “And it is Azaan from Allah and His Rasool” and that Azaan is me. (al-Burhan, v3, p164)
2-Ibne Abbas narrated: There are many names of Ali asws in the Book of Allah, which people do not know. Saying of Allah, “Then a Mo’azzin will announce in between them” so that Mo’azzin is Ali asws, who will say in between them, “Beware, Curse of Allah on them who belied my Walayat, and considered my right trivial.” (al-Burhan, v3, p165)
Lesson:
1-The Azaan of Momineen is Ali asws, Mo’azzin is also Ali asws, every deed is Ali Ali asws. After announcing Walalyat in Azaan, then who prevents people from Sabeel (Walayat-e-Ali asws), considering it lighter than Namaz, that Zalim is denier of Hereafter, who will be cursed by Maola Ali asws himself even after going to Hell.
وَبَيۡنَهمَا حِجَابٌ۬ۚ وَعَلَى ٱلۡأَعۡرَافِ رِجَالٌ۬ يَعۡرِفُونَ كُلاَّۢ بِسِيمَٮٰهُمۡۚ وَنَادَوۡاْ أَصۡحَـٰبَ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ أَن سَلَـٰمٌ عَلَيۡكُمۡۚ لَمۡ يَدۡخُلُوهَا وَهُمۡ يَطۡمَعُونَ (٤٦) ۞ وَإِذَا صُرِفَتۡ أَبۡصَـٰرُهُمۡ تِلۡقَآءَ أَصۡحَـٰبِ ٱلنَّارِ قَالُواْ رَبَّنَا لَا تَجۡعَلۡنَا مَعَ ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ (٤٧) وَنَادَىٰٓ أَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلۡأَعۡرَافِ رِجَالاً۬ يَعۡرِفُونَهم بِسِيمَٮٰهُمۡ قَالُواْ مَآ أَغۡنَىٰ عَنكُمۡ جَمۡعُكُمۡ وَمَا كُنتُمۡ تَسۡتَكۡبِرُونَ (٤٨) أَهَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ ٱلَّذِينَ أَقۡسَمۡتُمۡ لَا يَنَالُهُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِرَحۡمَةٍۚ ٱدۡخُلُواْ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ لَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَلَآ أَنتُمۡ تَحۡزَنُونَ (٤٩) وَنَادَىٰٓ أَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلنَّارِ أَصۡحَـٰبَ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ أَنۡ أَفِيضُواْ عَلَيۡنَا مِنَ ٱلۡمَآءِ أَوۡ مِمَّا رَزَقَکمُ ٱللَّهُۚ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ حَرَّمَهُمَا عَلَى ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِينَ (٥٠)
And between them is a veil, and on the A’raf (Heights) are men who recognize all by their marks, and they will call to the companions of Paradise: Peace be upon you! They have not (yet) entered it but they hope (to enter). (46) And when their eyes are turned toward the companions of the Fire, they say: Our Rabb! Do not place us with the wrong-doing nation. (47) And the companions of the Heights call to men (within Hell) whom they recognize by their marks, (saying): Of no avail to you was your gathering and about what you were proud? (48) Are these (Shias) the ones about whom you swore that Allah would not bestow them mercy? (To Shias it will be said): Enter the Paradise, no fear shall come upon you nor will you grieve. (49) And the companions of the Fire call out to the companions of the Paradise: Pour on us some water or from whatever Allah has provided you. They will say: Indeed, Allah has forbidden both to the disbelievers. (50)
1-It was asked about A’raf, then Amirul Momineen asws said: We will be on A’raf, and we recognize our supporters by their marks. And we are A’raf (Heights), Allah Azza wa Jalla is not known but by the way of our Marifat (knowledge), and we are A’raf, Allah Azza wa Jalla will stand us on Sirat on the day of Qiyamah, thus no one will enter Paradise except who would recognize us and we will be recognizing him, and no one will enter Hell as well except that who would not recognize us and we will not be recognizing him.
If Allah Tabarak wa Ta’ala would have wished that people would get Marifat of Him (by any other means) then they would have gained Marifat and come to His door, but He had made us His Doors and Sirat and Sabeel, and that Door through which one has to come toward Him, so who turned away from our Walayat and preferred anyone else than us he departed Sirat. Those people who held them (asws) are not equal to those who go to dirty fountains who end on each other. And who was destined to come to us, went to the clear fountains which are flowing with the order of Allah which are never ending nor becoming less. (al-Burhan, v3, p166)
2-Imam Jafar Sadiq asws said: A’raf are Heights between Paradise and Hell, and Rijal (Men) are Imams asws who will be standing on A’raf with their Shias. And pious Shias will be gone already to Paradise without account. Then Imams asws will say to their sinful Shias: Look towards your brothers in Paradise who have gone in it without account. And this is the saying of Allah Tabarak wa Ta’ala, “Peace be upon you. They would not have entered it but they hope it.” Then it will be said to them, “Look toward your enemies in the Hell” and this is the saying of Allah, “And when their eyes are turned toward the companions of the Fire, they say: Our Rabb! Do not place us with the wrong-doing nation. And the companions of the Heights call to men whom they recognize by their marks” in the Hell, will call and say, “Of no avail to you was your gathering” in the world, “and about what you were proud”, then will say to their enemies in the Hell, “Are these our Shias and brothers about whom you used to swear in the world that they will never get Mercy of Allah?” Then Imams asws will say to their Shias, “Enter Paradise, there is no fear for you nor will you grieve”, then, “the companions of Hell will say to the companions of Paradise: Pour on us some water or from whatever Allah has provided you.” (al-Burhan, v3, p171)
Lesson:
1-The whole holy family of Risalat will be seated on the Hieghts including Syyeda Fatima Zahra asws and Syyeda Khadijatul Kubra asws. Shias like Salman and Abu Zarr will enter Paradise without account. Masumeen asws will be standing on A’raf for sinful but lovers like us. Those who have made big gatherings and organizations, and have occupied all Masajid by using money and power, so that no one should do Zikr of Maola Ali asws in mosques, and they have established factories for making Ayatollahs and Hujjatollahs, and they are proud about it. So they taunt and tease the lovers of Maola Ali asws and Azadars of Imam-e-Mazloom asws, saying: O you without good deeds, you will not get anything in the Hereafter because you only stress on Walayat-e-Ali asws, Matam and Zanjeer Zani. But they do not realise that why lover of Imam Ali asws should offer prayer behind Muqassir Mulla to earn Azaab. Lover of Ali asws prefers to offer congregational Salaah with the Angels (a.s.) at home adorned with Walayat-e-Ali asws. Nasibi Muqassireen are proud about their so-called good deeds, while lovers of Ali asws rely with certainty on intercession of Masumeen asws.
ٱدۡعُواْ رَبَّكُمۡ تَضَرُّعً۬ا وَخُفۡيَةًۚ إِنَّهُ ۥ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُعۡتَدِينَ (٥٥) وَلَا تُفۡسِدُواْ فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ بَعۡدَ إِصۡلَـٰحِهَا وَٱدۡعُوهُ خَوۡفً۬ا وَطَمَعًاۚ إِنَّ رَحۡمَتَ ٱللَّهِ قَرِيبٌ۬ مِّنَ ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ (٥٦)
Call upon your Rabb humbly and secretly, certainly He does not like transgressors. (55) And cause not corruption in the earth after its reformation, and call on Him in fear and hope. Indeed, the mercy of Allah is near to the good doers. (56)
1-Said that saying of Allah, “Call upon your Rabb humbly and secretly” means openly and in private and “cause not corruption in the earth after its reformation” means that Allah reformed earth through Rasool Allah sawaw and Amirul Momineen asws. Then it was corrupted when people turned away from Amirul Momineen asws and his progeny asws. (Tafseer Qummi, p 219)
Lesson:
1-Corruption is to leave Walayat-e-Ali asws, to oppose it or to become partner in it. It is migration away from Speaking Quran.
2-Mohsin (good doer) is that who adopts Walayat-e-Ali asws practically, who is in the Mercy of Allah, who preaches Walayat-e-Ali asws openly & privately, with words & practice, and with speech and writing.
أَوَعَجِبۡتُمۡ أَن جَآءَكُمۡ ذِکۡرٌ۬ مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡ عَلَىٰ رَجُلٍ۬ مِّنكُمۡ لِيُنذِرَکمۡۚ وَٱذۡکرُوٓاْ إِذۡ جَعَلَكُمۡ خُلَفَآءَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ قَوۡمِ نُوحٍ۬ وَزَادَكُمۡ فِى ٱلۡخَلۡقِ بَصۜۡطَةً۬ۖ فَٱذۡکرُوٓاْ ءَالَآءَ ٱللَّهِ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُفۡلِحُونَ (٦٩)
Do you wonder that there has come to you a Reminder from your Rabb through a man among you, that he may warn you? Remember how He made you successors after Nuh's nation, and increased you in stature extensively. So remember the bounties of Allah, that perhaps you may be successful. (69)
1-After reciting this verse, “So remember the bounties of Allah” Imam Jafar Sadiq asws asked Abu Yousuf Bazzaz: Do you know what are bounties of Allah? He replied: No. Imam asws said: That is the greatest bounty on the creation of Allah, and that is our Walayat. (al-Burhan,v3, p181)
Lesson:
1-Every Prophet (a.s.) stressed on Emaan on Walayat of Masumeen asws and to keep mentioning it and advised to wait for Zahoor of Qaim asws (mentioned in verse 71), and told that the key of salvation is mentioning the bounty of Walayat-e-Ali asws. So if any Mulla wants to hinder people from doing Zikr of the greatest Bounty of Allah by different tricks, then in reality he wants to make people ungrateful and misguided.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَّبِعُونَ ٱلرَّسُولَ ٱلنَّبِىَّ ٱلۡأُمِّىَّ ٱلَّذِى يَجِدُونَهُ ۥ مَكۡتُوبًا عِندَهُمۡ فِى ٱلتَّوۡرَٮٰةِ وَٱلۡإِنجِيلِ يَأۡمُرُهُم بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ وَيَنۡهٮٰهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلۡمُنکرِ وَيُحِلُّ لَهُمُ ٱلطَّيِّبَـٰتِ وَيُحَرِّمُ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلۡخَبَـٰٓٮِٕثَ وَيَضَعُ عَنۡهُمۡ إِصۡرَهُمۡ وَٱلۡأَغۡلَـٰلَ ٱلَّتِى كَانَتۡ عَلَيۡهِمۡۚ فَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ بِهِۦ وَعَزَّرُوهُ وَنَصَرُوهُ وَٱتَّبَعُواْ ٱلنُّورَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أُنزِلَ مَعَهُ ۥۤۙ أُوْلَـٰٓٮِٕكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُفۡلِحُونَ (١٥٧)
Those who follow the Rasool, the Nabi al-Ummi, whom they find written in Taurat and Injeel with them. He commands them what is right and forbid them what is wrong and he makes Halaal for them the good things and makes Haraam for them the bad things; and he relieves them of their burden and the shackles which were upon them. Then those who believe in him, and honour him, and help him, and follow the Noor which came down with him, they are those who are successful. (157)
1-Imam Jafar Sadiq asws said about this verse: On this place Noor means Amirul Momineen asws and Imams asws. (al-Burhan, v3, p221)
2-Abu Obaida asked Imam Mohammad Baqir asws about capacity and what people say about it, Imam asws said: “They will not cease to differ except whom your Rabb has given mercy, and for that He created them” (Hood, v118-119) O Abu Obaida, people differ in the meaning of the saying, and they all are going to be destroyed, “Except those whom your Rabb has given mercy” those are our Shias, and Allah has created them for His mercy and “for that He created them” means that for obedience of Imam asws, and about that mercy Allah says, “And My mercy is encompassing everything” (al-A’raf, v156) means knowledge of Imam asws and His Knowledge is comprehensive, everything is in that knowledge, and they are our Shias (in mercy). “Whom they find written in Taurat and Injeel with them” means Nabi Akram sawaw and Wasi asws and al-Qaim asws, who command them good, when they rise, and they forbid them from Munkir (bad, denier), and Munkir is that who denies merit of Imam asws and oppose him, “and makes Halaal for them the good things” means to gain knowledge from its owner, “and makes Haraam for them the bad things” bad are the sayings (words) of their opponents, “and he removes from them their burdens” these are those sins which were on them before knowing the merits of Imam asws, “and the shackles which were on them” and shackles means that they rejected superiority of Imam asws that what was commanded, did not do it. Thus when they gained the Marifat of superiority (merits) of Imam asws, burden was removed from them, and burden is sin, and these are those burdens. “So those who believe in him” means in Imam asws, “and honour him and help him, and obey that Noor which came down with him, they are those who are successful” means those who avoided Jabat and Taghoot and did not worship them. Jabat and Taghoot are all opponents of Walayat-e-Ali asws, and worship means that people should obey them. Then said, “Return to your Rabb and be obedient to Him” (al-Zumar, v54) then their reward is, “for them is good news in the worldly life and the Hereafter” (Younus, v64) and Imam asws gives them good news of Qiyam of Qaim asws and his Zahoor, and their enemies being killed, and salvation in the Hereafter, and to come to Mohammad sawas and his truthful Aal asws on Hawz-e-Kauser. (al-Burhan, v3, p222)
Lesson:
1-It is commanded to obey Noor, that Noor which is infinite treasure of Knowledge of Allah, the Noor of fourteen Masumeen asws which is written in all heavenly books. It is ordered to take Deen and knowledge from him who is Maroof. Muqassir Mulla who considers Noor like himself, his saying is Khabees (bad), who opposes superiority and Walayat of Imams asws. Opposition of Walayat and merits of Imam asws is burden of sins and shackles. Who listens to Muqassir Mulla, it is as he is worshiping him. To avoid every Jabati and Taghooti Mulla is obligatory.
وَسۡـَٔلۡهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلۡقَرۡيَةِ ٱلَّتِى کانَتۡ حَاضِرَةَ ٱلۡبَحۡرِ إِذۡ يَعۡدُونَ فِى ٱلسَّبۡتِ إِذۡ تَأۡتِيهِمۡ حِيتَانُهُمۡ يَوۡمَ سَبۡتِهِمۡ شُرَّعً۬ا وَيَوۡمَ لَا يَسۡبِتُونَۙ لَا تَأۡتِيهِمۡۚ کذَالِكَ نَبۡلُوهُم بِمَا كَانُواْ يَفۡسُقُونَ (١٦٣) وَإِذۡ قَالَتۡ أُمَّةٌ۬ مِّنۡهمۡ لِمَ تَعِظُونَ قَوۡمًاۙ ٱللَّهُ مُهۡلِكُهُمۡ أَوۡ مُعَذِّبُهمۡ عَذَابً۬ا شَدِيدً۬اۖ قَالُواْ مَعۡذِرَةً إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُمۡ وَلَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَّقُونَ (١٦٤) فَلَمَّا نَسُواْ مَا ذُکرُواْ بِهِۦۤ أَنجَيۡنَا ٱلَّذِينَ يَنۡهوۡنَ عَنِ ٱلسُّوٓءِ وَأَخَذۡنَا ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ بِعَذَابِۭ بَـِٔيسِۭ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَفۡسُقُونَ (١٦٥) فَلَمَّا عَتَوۡاْ عَن مَّا نُهواْ عَنۡهُ قُلۡنَا لَهُمۡ كُونُواْ قِرَدَةً خَـٰسِـِٔينَ (١٦٦)
And ask them about the town that was by the sea, when they transgressed in the Sabbat, when their fish came to them visibly (openly) on their Sabbat day (Saturday) and the day when they did not have Sabbat they did not come to them. Thus did We try (test) them because they were defiantly disobedient. (163) And when a community among them said: Why do you advise to a folk whom Allah is about to destroy or punish with a severe punishment, they said: In order to be free from guilt before your Rabb, and that perhaps they may fear Allah.(164) And when they forgot that about which they had been reminded, We rescued those who forbade wrong, and captured those who did wrong with dreadful punishment because they were defiantly disobedient. (165) So when they transgressed in that which they had been forbidden, We said to them: Be you apes despised! (166)
1-Some people asked Imam Ali asws: Ya Amirul Momineen asws! These fish which come to our bazaars? Amirul Momineen asws said smiling: Get up, let me show you some thing wonderful, and do not say anything except good about Wasi asws. So got up and came with them on the shore, and spit his saliva in it (sea) and said something, at that time a specific type of fish raised its head and opened mouth. Amirul Momineen asws said: Who are you, destruction on you and your nation? It replied: We are from the inhabitants of the town who used to live on the shore of sea, as Allah has said in His Book, ”when their fish came to them openly on their Sabbat day....” so Allah presented your Walayat in front of us, but we turned back from it, then Allah disfigured us, some of us are on land and some of us in the water. Who are in water are fish and who are in the land are rats. Then Amirul Momineen asws turned to us and said: Did you hear their talk. People said: Yes. (al-Burhan, v3, p231)
2-Imam Zainul Abideen asws said: No doubt, Allah disfigured those who caught those fish. So near Allah, what will be the bad condition of those who martyred the pure progeny asws of Rasool Allah sawaw and were disrespectful to his holy ladies asws. Certainly if Allah has not disfigured them in this world, then He has prepared many folds more punishment for them than the disfigured ones. (al-Burhan, v3, p229)
Lesson:
1-That nation who was forbidden to catch fish on Saturday, they deduced a solution with Zunn & Qiyas with the advice of Shaitan, they made small ponds on the shore of sea. Ponds were connected with the sea in such a way that fish could easily enter the ponds but could not go back to sea. Then they were going on Sunday to get the fish from the ponds, and they were considering that they did not disobey by this trick, moreover those people rejected to testify Walayat-e-Ali asws. When some people advised them, they did not listen. So those who advised, went out of the town due to fear of Azaab. When they returned in the morning, no one was opening the door of the town, then they climbed on the city wall and saw that they all were disfigured as monkies. Disfigured people used to stay alive for three days and then died. So they died and rain flowed them to sea.
All the nations which Allah destroyed, in fact they rejected Walayat-e-Ali asws, different types of punishments came upon such nations. Allah disfigured them as monkies, pigs, rats, and strange types of fish, then they used to die after few days. Azaab does not come on the deniers of Walayat-e-Ali asws in this Ummah because Masumeen asws are Hazir Nazir, so they are given respite. But if someone invokes Azaab like Haris bin Numan Fehri, he can get it.
وَٱلَّذِينَ يُمَسِّكُونَ بِٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ وَأَقَامُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ إِنَّا لَا نُضِيعُ أَجۡرَ ٱلۡمُصۡلِحِينَ (١٧٠)
And those who hold fast the Book, and establish Salaah - certainly We do not waste the reward of reformers. (170)
1-Imam Mohammad Baqir asws said about this verse: It was revealed about Aal-e-Mohammad asws and their Shias. (al-Burhan, v3, p233)
Lesson:
1-Those who hold fast the Book of Allah, in which everything is mentioned, they keep in contact with it and get guidance from it, and they do not say that only four or five hundren verses are about Shariah in it. Pious people do not even touch the books of fallible Mulla based on Zunn, Qiyas and Rai. Pious people do not read Salaah like parrot but they establish Salaah with testimony of Walayat-e-Ali asws, Allah does not waste reward of such reformers.
وَإِذۡ أَخَذَ رَبُّكَ مِنۢ بَنِىٓ ءَادَمَ مِن ظُهُورِهِمۡ ذُرِّيَّتَهمۡ وَأَشۡهدَهُمۡ عَلَىٰٓ أَنفُسِهمۡ أَلَسۡتُ بِرَبِّكُمۡۖ قَالُواْ بَلَىٰۛ شَهِدۡنَآۛ أَن تَقُولُواْ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَـٰمَةِ إِنَّا کنَّا عَنۡ هَـٰذَا غَـٰفِلِينَ (١٧٢)
And (remember My beloved sawaw) when your Rabb took from the Children of Adam, from their backs, their descendants, and made them testify upon themselves, (saying): Am I not your Rabb? They said: Yes, we testify. (That was) lest you should say on the day of Qiyamah: Indeed, we were unaware of this. (172)
1-When Allah Tabarak wa Ta’ala intended to create Adam (a.s.), then created sweet water, and created salty sour water, and took a handful dust from the stratum of earth, and mixed sweet water in it, then left it for forty days, then mixed salty sour water in it, then left it for forty days, when his matter fermented then took it and squeezed it with force, so particles exited from it from the right and left. Then said to the companions of the right (As’habul Yameen): Go toward Paradise with peace. And the companions of the left (As’habul Shimal) toward Fire, I do not care. Then said: Am I not your Rabb? They said: Yes, we testify. In order that you should not say on the day of Qiyamah, “Certainly we were unaware of this.” Then took covenant from Anmbiya (a.s.) and said: Am I not your Rabb, and this Mohammad sawaw My Rasool, and this Ali asws Amirul Momineen? They said: Yes. Then prescribed Nabuwat for them. And took covenant from Olil Azm (a.s.): No doubt, I am your Rabb, and Mohammad sawaw is My Rasool, and Ali asws Amirul Momineen, and after him Aosiya asws are my Aoliya al-Amr and treasurer of My Knowledge, and that I will help My Deen through Mahdi asws, and will purify My earth through him, and will reveal My Government through him, and will revenge My enemies through him, and will establish Ibadat willingly or unwillingly through him. They (a.s.) said: O our Rabb, we testify and witness. At that moment, Adam (a.s.) neither denied nor testified, then only for these five (Prophets a.s.) Azm (firm resolution) was prescribed about Mahdi asws, and Adam (a.s.) did not do firm intention to testify, and this is the saying of Allah, “Before this We gave a command to Adam but he forgot and We did not find Azm in him” (Ta Ha, v115). Then ordered Fire to burn with intensity, and said to As’hab al-Shimal: Enter into it. They became afraid of it. And said to As’hab al-Yameen: Enter into it. So they entered, and it became cool (extinguished) on them and became peaceful. Then As’hab al-Shimal said: O Rabb, You disgraced us. Certainly, you disgraced yourselves, when it was ordered to you to enter then you should have entered but you became afraid. So in this way, obedience, Walayat, and disobedience was prescribed. (Imam Mohammad Baqir asws) (al-Burhan, v3, p235)
2-The second caliph of Muslims went to Hajj during his government, when he started Tawaf, kissed Hajar-e-Aswad by touching and said: I kissed you but I know that you are a stone neither can harm nor benefit, but Rasool Allah sawaw advised to respect you, and if I would not have seen him kissing you then I would not have kissed you.
Maola Ali ibne Abi Talib asws was also among the pilgrims, he said: Why not? By Allah, it can give harm and benefit as well. He said: O Abul Hassan asws, why you say this? Said: From the Book of Allah. He said: I testify that you have the knowledge of the Book of Allah, so where it is in the Book? Said: Saying of Allah Azza wa Jalla, “And when your Rabb took from the Children of Adam, from their backs, their descendants, and made them testify upon themselves, (saying): Am I not your Rabb? They said: Yes, we testify” and I inform you that when Allah Subhanahu created Adam (a.s.) then touched his back, then from his back his descendants came out in the form of particles, and gave them intellect (wisdom), and took testimony from them that He is Rabb and they are His servants. So they testified His Lordship, and witnessed about themselves being servants, and Allah Azza wa Jalla knew that they are on different stages in this matter. So He wrote the names of His servants on a paper, and on that day this stone had two eyes and two lips and a tongue. Then Allah said: Open mouth. When it opened mouth, He put that paper in it. Then said to it: Give witness on the day of Qiyamah, who fulfils his promise. Then when Adam (a.s.) came down (on earth), then this stone also came down with, so place it on this place on this corner where you see. And Angels (a.s.) used to do Hajj of this Bait (House) before Allah created Adam (a.s.), then Adam (a.s.) did its Hajj, then after him Nuh (a.s.), then it razed down and its foundations became old, so it (Hajar-e-Aswad) was placed in Mount Abi Qubais. Then when Ibraheem (a.s.) and Ismaeel (a.s.) built this House again and made its foundations, and took out the stone from Mount Abu Qubais with the revelation of Allah Azza wa Jalla and fixed on this place where it is today on this corner (Rukan), and this is from among the stones of Paradise, and when it was sent down, its colour was white like a pearl, and was clear & bright like Yaqoot, then became black with the hands of disbelievers, and polytheists used to touch the animals of sacrifice with it. Caliph said: There is no life in that Ummah, in which you are not present, O Abul Hassan asws. (al-Burhan, v3, p240)
Lesson:
1-In Alam-e-Zarr (state of particles) deniers accepted Allah as Rabb willingly without compulsion but did not obey Him and objected that why He made them for Hell? So Allah proved them in Alam-e-Zarr immediately that As’hab-e-Yameen entered into Fire by accepting His order without hesitation, and Fire was extinguished. But As’hab-e-Shimal refused to enter into Fire. Allah is Just, He does not compel or do injustice. Deniers of Walayat are deniers since the time of Alam-e-Zarr willingly, so their birth is Najis. As the devotion of Masumeen asws intensifies, the grade near Allah increases.
2-Allah took promise for Hajj of Baitullah in Alam-e-Zarr, who promised their names were written and given to Hajar-e-Aswad, so that it can give witness on the day of Qiyamah who fulfilled his promise from among those people.
As Hajar-e-Aswad can harm and benefit, similarly Sha’air-al-Hussainia benefit people. To consider Sha’airullah as innovation (Bid’ah) is Sunnah of Sani.
وَٱتۡلُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ نَبَأَ ٱلَّذِىٓ ءَاتَيۡنَـٰهُ ءَايَـٰتِنَا فَٱنسَلَخَ مِنۡهَا فَأَتۡبَعَهُ ٱلشَّيۡطَـٰنُ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡغَاوِينَ (١٧٥) وَلَوۡ شِئۡنَا لَرَفَعۡنَـٰهُ بِها وَلَـٰكِنَّهُ ۥۤ أَخۡلَدَ إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَٱتَّبَعَ هَوَٮٰهُۚ فَمَثَلُهُ ۥ كَمَثَلِ ٱلۡکلۡبِ إِن تَحۡمِلۡ عَلَيۡهِ يَلۡهَثۡ أَوۡ تَتۡرُکۡهُ يَلۡهَثۚ ذَّالِكَ مَثَلُ ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَاۚ فَٱقۡصُصِ ٱلۡقَصَصَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ (١٧٦)
Recite to them the news of him to whom We gave Our signs, but he detached himself from them, so Shaitan overtook him, so he became from among the deviators. (175) And if We had willed We could have raised him by their (signs) means, but he clung to the earth and followed his own lust. Therefore his example is as the example of a dog: if you chase him he pants with his tongue out, and if you leave him he pants with his tongue out. Such is the example of the people who belie Our Ayaat. So narrate the stories that pehaps they may ponder. (176)
1-Bal’am bin Ba’oor was given Ism-e-Azam (the great name), and he used to make Dua with it which was accepted. He became inclined toward Firoun. When Firoun came out to hunt Musa (a.s.) and his companions, then Firoun called Bal’am that he can invoke on Musa (a.s.) and his companions, so that they can be captured as prisoners. So he mounted his donkey in search of Musa (a.s.) and his companions, but his donkey refused to walk. So he started beating him, thus Allah Azza wa Jalla gave him power to speak and he said: Destruction on you, why you beat me, you want that I should come with you to invoke upon Prophet of Allah, Musa (a.s.) and Momin people? And he kept beating him until he died. And that Ism vanished from his tongue, and this is the saying of Allah, “but he detached himself from them, so Shaitan overtook him, so he became from among the deviators. And if We had willed We could have raised him by their (signs) means, but he clung to the earth and followed his own lust. Therefore his example is as the example of a dog: if you chase him he pants, and if you leave him he pants” and Allah has presented this example. (Imam Ali Raza asws) (al-Burhan, v3, p246)
2-Imam Mohammad Baqir asws said about this verse: Originally it is about Bal’am, then Allah has given example for all those among the people of Qiblah (Muslims) who follow their own lust instead of guidance of Allah. (al-Burhan, v3, p247)
Lesson:
1-Muqassir Mullah has no value, even if someone has Ism-e-Azam, Shaitan can still occupy him if he opposes Masoom asws. It is not strange that in spite of knowledge if a Muqassir Mulla inclines toward the Firoun of this time in greed of power, wealth, and lust, he chose disgrace himself. While one can gain higher grades near Allah through Ism-e-Azam, which is fourteen Masumeen asws.
2-Allah declares him like dog who opposes Masumeen asws, that he talks nonsense in spite of prohibiting. Moreover he does injustice to others by persuading them to be on his side.
3-Those who leave guidance of Masumeen asws (Quran & Hadees), and follow Zunn & Qiyas, these verses are applicable to them.
4-Even the animals will go to Paradise who take side of pious people, even if it is Najis animal. Donkey of Bal’am bin Ba’oor, dog of As’hab-e-Kahf, wolf of Yousuf (a.s.), she camel of Saleh (a.s.), and Zuljanah will be in Paradise. Who mock Sha’air-ul-Hussainia and declare them Bid’ah, don’t they ponder in Quran? Whoever is on the side of Masumeen asws is successful.
وَلِلَّهِ ٱلۡأَسۡمَآءُ ٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ فَٱدۡعُوهُ بِهاۖ وَذَرُواْ ٱلَّذِينَ يُلۡحِدُونَ فِىٓ أَسۡمَـٰٓٮِٕهِۦۚ سَيُجۡزَوۡنَ مَا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ (١٨٠)
And to Allah belong Asma-al-Husna (the Best Names). So call upon Him by them, and leave those who practice Ilhad (deviation) in His Names. Soon they will be recompensed for what they have been doing. (180)
1-Imam Jafar Sadiq asws said about this verse: By Allah, we are Asma-al-Husna, without whose Marifat (knowledge) Allah does not accept any deed of servants. (al-Burhan, v3, p249)
2-Imam Ali Raza asws said: When a hardship strikes you, then for our sake ask help from Allah Azza wa Jalla, and this is His saying, “And to Allah belong Asma-al-Husna, so call upon Him by them” (al-Burhan, v3, p249)
3-Jabir bin Abdullah asked: Ya Rasool Allah sawaw, what do you say about Ali ibne Abi Talib asws? Said: He is my Nafs (soul, self). Asked: What do you say about Hassan asws and Hussain asws? Said: They both are my Rooh (spirit), and Fatima asws is mother of my these two sons, he grieved me who grieved her, and he pleased me who pleased her, Allah is Witness that he fought with me who fought with them, and he reconciled with me who reconciled with them. O Jabir, when you wish to make Dua to Allah and it should be accepted for you, then call Him with their (asws) names, because near Allah they are favourite names. (al-Burhan, v3, p249)
Lesson:
1-If a name is used in other than its original place, it is Ilhad (deviation). The Best (Beautiful) Names of Allah are fourteen Masumeen asws, their Alqabaat (agnomen, title) are not permissible for anyone else, and those who does that they practice deviation, Allah orders to keep away from them.
2-Allah commands to call upon Him with Marifat of Masumeen asws, and with their holy names. So when a Muqassir says that Namaz nullifies by mentioning name of Maola Ali asws, then no doubt he is Mulhid (deviator) who is doing Ilhad with Ism-e-Azam of Allah.
وَمِمَّنۡ خَلَقۡنَآ أُمَّةٌ۬ يَهۡدُونَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَبِهِۦ يَعۡدِلُونَ (١٨١)
And among those whom We created there is a nation who guides with the Truth and establishes justice with it. (181)
1-Imam Jafar Sadiq asws said about this verse: They are Imams asws. Imam Mohammad Baqir asws said the same. (al-Burhan, v3, p250)
2-Ibne Abbas narrated that in this verse Ummah of Mohammad sawaw means Ali ibne Abi Talib asws. (al-Burhan, v3, p250)
Lesson:
1-Allah and His fourteen Beloved Masumeen asws are our Wali, and they are Haqq (Truth) and guide toward Haqq, and do justice with Haqq. Whoever took guidance from someone else, went astray.
2-Infallible Imams asws are the Hadi of Ummah, and they are the Ulma of Ummah who are superior to Anmbiya (a.s.). Guided scholars are Shia students, they are not Ulma. Word Ummah is applicable to one Masoom asws as well, e.g. Allah called Ibraheem (a.s.) as Ummah. (al-Nahal, v120)
خُذِ ٱلۡعَفۡوَ وَأۡمُرۡ بِٱلۡعُرۡفِ وَأَعۡرِضۡ عَنِ ٱلۡجَـٰهِلِينَ (١٩٩)
Adopt forgiveness and command good, and turn away from the ignorant. (199)
1-No Momin can be Momin until he has three qualities: Sunnah of his Rabb, Sunnah of His Nabi sawaw, and Sunnah of His Wali asws. As Sunnah of his Rabb is concerned that is to keep secret, Allah Azza wa Jallah says, “He is the Knower of Ghaib, does not reveal His Ghaib to anyone except that Rasool whom He chose” (al-Jinn, v26-27). And as Sunnah of His Nabi sawaw is concerned that is to deal people with kindness, so Allah Azza wa Jalla told His Nabi sawaw to deal people with kindness and said, “Adopt forgiveness and command good and turn away from the ignorant” And as Sunnah of His Wali asws is concerned, that is patience in hardship and adversity, Allah Azza wa Jalla says, “Those who are patient in hardship and adversity and during battle, those are the ones who are truthful, and it is those who are the righteous” (al-Baqarah, v177) (Imam Ali Raza asws) (al-Burhan, v3, p257)
2- Imam Jafar Sadiq asws said about the saying of Allah, “Adopt forgiveness and command good” means (command) Walayat, “and turn away from the ignorant” means (ignorant) of Walayat.
Lesson:
1-“Shahadah” means what has happened, and “Ghaib” means what has not yet happened. Masumeen asws are the treasurer of the Knowledge of Allah. It is not beneficial to tell public the time of death, Qiyam of Qaim asws, and Qiyamah.
2-Momineen do not tell the secrets of Masumeen asws to those who are not worthy of it. They invite toward Walayat-e-Ali asws with proof and in a good manner, but turn away from arrogant ignorant Muqassireen because they have lost the capacity to absorb Haqq due to Rijs in their hearts. Momineen keep patient & steadfast in hardships & adversities which come while preaching Walayat-e-Ali asws. This is the truth and piety.
