Prophetsas and the Rasoolsas’.1

Ali Bin Ibrahim said, ‘My father narrated to me, from Usman Bin Isa, from Sama’at, from Abu Baseer,

‘Abu Abdullahasws has said: ‘Allahazwj did not Create a creature except that Heazwj
Made for it a station in the Paradise, and a station in the Fire. So when the people of
the Paradise enter into the Paradise, and the people of the Fire into the Fire, a Caller
will Call out: ‘O people of the Paradise! Look below!’ So they would look down upon
the people of the Fire, and their own status would be raised during it. Then it would
be said to them: ‘This is what your status would have been had you disobeyed
Allahazwj. You would have been Made to enter it’ – meaning the Fire – ‘So if anyone
is allowed to die of happiness, the people of the Paradise would have died that Day
due to their happiness – when the Punishment had been Lifted from them’.

Then a Caller would Call out: ‘O people of the Fire! Raise your heads!’ So they would
be raising their heads, and would be looking at what their status would have been in
the Paradise, and whatever is in it from the Bounties. So it would be said to them:
‘This is the status which your Lordazwj would have Given you, by Making you to enter
it’.

said,

‘I asked Al-Abd Al-Salihasws (7th. Imamasws) about the seed, what is the blood money
compensation regarding it, and what is it with regards to the clot, and what is it with
regards to the embryo formed and what occurs in the wombs?’ The Imam asws said:
‘[39:6] He Creates you in the wombs of your mothers a creation after a
creation. It is a seed for forty days, then becomes a clot for forty days, then embryo
for forty days. So with regards to the seed it is forty Dinars, and regarding the clot it
is sixty Dinars, and regarding the embryo it is eighty Dinars. So when the bones
attain flesh so it is one hundred Dinars. Allah azwj Mighty and Majestic Says [23:14],
then We Caused it to grow into another creation, so Blessed is Allah, the best
of the Creators. So if it was a male (unborn) there is the blood money compensation
with regards to it, and if it was a female, there is (again) the blood money
compensation with regards to it’.12

Muhammad Bin Yaqoub, from Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Fazeyl,
from Al Hassan Bin Jaham who said:

‘I heard Al-Rezaasws saying: ‘Abu Ja’farasws said: ‘The seed comes to be in the womb
for forty days, then it becomes a clot for forty days, then it becomes a lump for forty
days. So when the four months are completed, Allahazwj Sends two Angels (allocated
for) creation, so they say, ‘O Lordazwj! What have you Created, a male or a female?’
So they act accordingly. They say, ‘O Lordazwj! Miserable or happy?’ So they act
accordingly. They say, ‘O Lordazwj! What is its term, and what is its sustenance?’ And
everything from his condition – and a number of things from that – and these two
write it down as a Covenant in between his eyes. So when Allah azwj Completes the
term for him, Allahazwj Sends an Angel who rebukes him with a rebuke, so he comes
out, and he has forgotten the Covenant’.

Al Hassan Bin Al Jahan said, ‘I said to himasws, ‘Is it permissible to supplicate to

Allahazwj, and Heazwj would Change the female to be a male, and the male to be a
female?’ So heasws said: ‘Allahazwj Does whatever Heazwj so Desires to’.14

Abu Ja’farasws has said: ‘The Law (Sharia) of Noahas was that they should worship
Allahazwj with Oneness (Al-Tauheed), and have sincerity, and not associate others,
and this is the nature upon which the people have been Created. And Allah azwj Took
a Covenant with Noahas and to All the Prophetsas that theyas would worship Allahazwj

and will not associate anything with Himazwj, and Commanded for the Salaat, and the

So this is the Law which Noahas remained upon among them for a thousand years
except for fifty years (950) calling them secretly and in the open. So when they
refused and rebelled, heas said to hisas Lordazwj: ‘Ias have been overcome, so Help!’
So Allahazwj Revealed unto himas: “No one else from youras people are going to
believe except for the ones who have already believed, so do not be disheartened at
what they have done”. So for that reason Noah as said: ‘They will not give birth to
anyone except tyrannous infidels’. So Allahazwj Revealed unto himas to make the
ship’.17

say: O Lord! Cause me to disembark a blessed landing, and You are the best
of Landers [23:30] There are signs in that, and We are ever Testing

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Mahboub, from Hisham Al-Khurasany, from Al-Mufazzal Bin
Umar who said:

I was in the presence of Abu Abdullahasws at Al-Kufa in the days of Ali Bin Al-Abbas.
So when we ended up to Al-Kunasa, heasws said: ‘Over there is where they crucified
myasws uncle Zayd, may Allahazwj have Mercy upon him’. Then we went until we
ended up at the (market) stall of the oilmen, and it was at the end of the two lamps.

So heasws descended and said: ‘Descend, for this is the place where the Masjid Al-
Kufa used to be at first which Adam as had marked, and Iasws do not like that Iasws
should enter it riding’. I said, ‘So who was the other one who had marked it?’ He asws
said: ‘As for the first one, that was the storm during the era of Noahas. Then others
from the companions of Chosroe and Nu’man, and thereafter Ziyad Bin Abu Sufyan’.

So I said, ‘And there was a Masjid at Al-Kufa during the era of Noahas?’ Heasws said
to me; ‘Yes, O Mufazzal. And the houses of Noah as and hisas people were in a town,
at a place from the Euphrates which follows west of Al-Kufa’. Heasws said: ‘And
Noahas was a carpenter. So Allahazwj Made himas a Prophetas and Answered himas.
And Noahas was the first one to make a ship which flowed upon the back of the
water’. Heasws said: ‘And Noahas lived among hisas people for fifty years less a
thousand years (950), calling them to Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic. However, they
derided himas and laughed at himas. So when heas saw that from them, heas
supplicated against them saying: ‘Lordazwj! Do not Leave upon the earth any house of
the infidels. If Youazwj Leave them, they will lead astray Yourazwj servants, and will not
give birth to anyone except the infidel tyrants’. So Allah azwj Revealed unto Noahas
that heas should make a ship and make it a big one, and hurriedly. So Noah as made a
ship in Masjid Al-Kufa by hisas hands. He brought the wood from afar until he as
finished it.

Al-Mufazzal said, ‘Then Abu Abdullahasws interrupted the Hadith during the sunset.
So Abu Abdullahasws stood up and Prayed the Midday Salat (Al-Zohar), and the
Afternoon Salat (Al-Asar), then left from the Masjid. Heasws indicated by hisasws hand
to hisasws left to a place where there was a house among the houses, and it was the
place of the house of Ibn Hakeym, and where is Euphrates today, so he asws said to
me: ‘O Mufazzal! Over there is where the idols of the people of Noah as were fixed –
Yagows, and Yaowq, and Nasraa’. Then heasws went and rode upon hisasws animal.
So I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for youasws, how long did it take for Noahas to build hisas
ship until heas finished it?’ Heasws said: ‘In two time periods’. I said, ‘And how long are
these two time periods?’ Heasws said: ‘Eighty years’. I said, ‘The general Muslim are
saying that heas built it over five hundred years’. Heasws said: ‘No! How are they
saying this, and by Allahazwj it has been Revealed to usasws?’

place of the corner of the Baab Al-Feel today’. Then I said to himasws, ‘And that is

show a sign to the people of Noahas. Then Allahazwj Sent rain upon them which
flooded them with a flood, and the Euphrates overflowed with a flood, and then all
the rivers overflowed. Thus Allahazwj Drowned all of them and saved Noahas and

So I said to him, ‘How long did Noahas remain in the ship until the water subsided,

and it is Euphrates of Al-Kufa’. I said to himasws, ‘The Masjid of Al-Kufa is old?’ Heasws
said: ‘Yes, and it is a Praying place of Prophetsas, and the Rasool Allahsaww had
Prayed in it when hesaww Taken on an ascension to the sky. So Jibraeelas said to

composed it into a ship. So they passed by him as laughing, and mocking, and they
were saying, ‘Heas has become a navigator in the wilderness of the earth’, until he as
completed it’.19

and circled the House seven rounds, then settled upon Al-Joudy’.21

[23:31] Then We Raised up after them another generation [23:32] So We Sent

within them a Rasool from among them, saying: Worship Allah, you have no
god other than Him; Will you not then fear? [23:33] And the chiefs of his
people who disbelieved and belied the meeting of the Hereafter, and whom We
had given plenty to enjoy in this world's life, said: This is nothing but a mortal
like yourselves, he eats from what you are eating and drinks from what you are
drinking [23:34] And if you obey a mortal like yourselves, then you would be
losers [23:35] He promises you that when you are dead and become dust and
bones you shall be returning [23:36] Far, far is that which you are threatened
with [23:37] There is naught but our life in this world; we die and we live and
we shall not be raised again [23:38] He is nothing but a man who has forged a
lie against Allah, and we are not going to believe in him [23:39] He said: Lord!
Help me against their belying [23:40] He said: In a little while they would be
regretting [23:41] So the Punishment Seized them with the Truth, and We Made
them as rubbish; so away with the unjust people

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Al-Hassan Bin Mahboub, from Muhammad Bin Al-Fuzeyl, from
Abu Hamza, who has said:

Abu Ja’farasws having said: ‘So when the Prophet-hood of Noahas came to an end
and hisas days were completed, Allahazwj Revealed unto himas that: “O Noahas! Youras
Prophet-hood has come to an end and youras days are completed, so make the
Knowledge which is in youras possession, and the Belief, and the Great Name, and
the inheritance of the Knowledge, and effects of Knowledge of the Prophet-hood, to
be in the descendants from youras progeny, for Iazwj will never Cut it off from the
houses of the Prophetsas which is youras house and between Adamas, and Iazwj will
never Leave the earth except that there will be in it a knowledgeable one by whom
Myazwj Religion would be recognised by, and obedience to Me azwj would be
recognised by, and salvation would lie in the ones who are born during what is in
between the Capture (passing away) of a Prophet as up to the coming out of another
Prophetas.

And Noahas gave the good news of Hudas to Saamas and there were Prophetsas in
between Noahas and Hudas. And Noahas said that Allahazwj will Send a Prophetas
called Hudas, and heas would call hisas people to Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic. They
would belie himas and Allahazwj will Destroy them by the wind. So the ones among
you who meet himas should believe in himas, and follow himas for Allahazwj would
Rescue him from the Punishment of the wind. And Noahas ordered hisas sonas Samas
that heas should look at this bequest at the start of every year and make it to be a
day of Eid for them.

So they observed that which was in their possession from the Knowledge, and the

Then, from after Yusufas it went to the grandsons until it ended up to Musa as. And
there were Prophetsas in between Yusufas and Musaas. So Allahazwj Sent Musaas and
Harounas to Pharaohla, and Hamaanla, and Qarounla. “[23:44] Then We sent Our
Rasools one after another; whenever there came to a people their Rasool, they
called him a liar, so We made some of them follow others and We made them
stories”. And the Children of Israel killed a Prophetas, and if two were established
they killed two, and four would be established, to the extent that sometimes they
killed seventy Prophetsas in one day, and they set up the market and killed themas at
the end of the day.

So when the Torah was Revealed unto Musa as, it gave the good News of
Muhammadsaww, and in between Yusufas and Musaas were Prophetsas. And Musaas
had bequeathed to Yoshua bin Noonas and heas was the young man whom Allahazwj
Mentioned in Hisazwj Book. The Prophetsas never ceased to give the good News of
Muhammadsaww until Allahazwj Blessed and High Sent the Messiah Isa Bin Maryam as.
So heas gave the good News of Muhammadsaww and that is the Statement of the
High: “[7:157] they find meaning the Jews and the Christians written down with
them meaning the description of Muhammadsaww in the Torah and the Evangel
(who) enjoins them good and forbids them evil,” and it is the Statement of
Allahazwj: “[61:6] And when Isa son of Maryam said giving the good news of an
Rasool who will come after me, his name being Ahmad,”, and Musaas and Isaas
gave the good news of Muhammadsaww just as the Prophetsas had given to one
another until it reached Muhammadsaww.24

[23:45] Then We sent Musa and his brother Haroun, with Our Signs and a clear
authority [23:46] To Pharaoh and his chiefs, but they behaved haughtily and
they were an insolent people [23:47] So they said: Should we believe in two
mortals like ourselves while their people worship us? [23:48] So they belied
both of them and became of those who were Destroyed [23:49] And We Gave
Musa the Book that perhaps they may be Guided

In Majma Al-Bayan, there has come a report by the chain, from Abu Saeed Al-Khudry,

(It has been narrated) from the Prophetsaww having said: ‘Allahazwj did not Destroy a

Amir-ul-Momineenasws used to say: ‘There is no good in the world except for one of
the two men – a man who increases in it the good deeds every day and a man who
corrects himself, ready to face death by the repentance. But, what is meant by the
repentance? By Allahazwj! If he were to perform prostrations to the extent that his
neck breaks off, Allahazwj will not Accept deeds from him except by ourasws Wilayah,
the Peopleasws of the Household. Indeed, (Acceptance) is for the ones who recognise
ourasws rights and hope for Reward by usasws, (they) are pleased with their strength of
half a ‘Mudd’ (Unit of measurement) of food every day, not being able to cover their
private parts (insufficient clothing), and no covering over their head (roof), but still
they are very much fearful of Allahazwj and are pleased with the (little) share from the
world.

And that is how Allahazwj has Described them where Heazwj has Said: “[23:60] And
those who dispense their charity with their hearts full of fear”. That’s what they
come with? By Allahazwj! They come with obedience along with the love, and the
Wilayah, and they are with regards to that, (but they are still) fearful that it may not
be Accepted from them. By Allahazwj, they are not fearful with the fear of doubt with
regards to what they are in from the difficulties of Religion, but they are fearful that
they might have been deficient (Muqassir) in ourasws love and being (less) obedient to
usasws’.

Then said: ‘If you could afford not to go out of your houses, then do so, as when you
go out then it becomes obligatory on you that you would not backbite, and not lie,
and not be envious, and not show-off, and not pretend, and not flatter’. Then said:
‘Yes, a silo for the Muslim is his house in which he restrains his vision, and his
tongue, and his self, and his genitals. The one, who recognises the Favours of
Allahazwj by his heart, obligates more for himself from Allah azwj, before he even
expresses his appreciation for it upon his tongue, and the one who goes around
considering himself to be better than others, so he is from the arrogant ones’.

So I said to himasws, ‘But what if he sees himself as better due to the (spiritual) health
when he sees the one who is indulging in the sins?’ Heasws said: ‘Far be it! Far be it!
It may be that he has been Forgiven for his sins whilst you have been Paused for the
Accounting. Have you not recited the story of the magicians (at the time) of Musa as?’
Then said: ‘How many are proud with what Allahazwj has Favoured them with, and
how many have been enticed by the Veil of Allah azwj upon them, and how many have
been infatuated by the praises of the people upon him’. Then said: ‘I asws hope for the
salvation for the ones who recognise ourasws rights, from this community except for
one of the three – an unjust ruler, a follower of desires, an openly immoral one’.

Then heasws recited: “[3:31] Say: If you love Allah, then follow me, Allah will love

A man wept, so heasws said: ‘Are you crying? Even if the inhabitants of the heavens
and the earth, all of them get together crying to Allah azwj to be Rescued from the Fire
and to be entered into the Paradise, they would not be able to intercede for you.
Then if you had for yourself a living heart you would be the most fearful of the people
to Allahazwj in that condition’. Then said to him: ‘O Hafs, be a follower and not a
leader. O Hafs, the Rasoolsaww Allahazwj said: ‘The one who fears Allahazwj, would be
of little speech’.

Then said: ‘Musaas Bin Imranas passed by a man from hisas companion, and he was
prostrating. So after return back from what heas had to do, (Musaas) saw him still in
prostration. So Musaas said to him: ‘If (the fulfilment) of your need was in myas hands,
Iasws would have fulfilled it for you’. So Allahazwj Revealed unto himas; “O Musaas!

In Usool Al Kafi – Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Moala Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin

‘I heard Abu Abdullahasws saying: ‘Amir-ul-Momineenasws said: ‘Allahazwj Blessed and

High, had Heazwj so Wanted, Heazwj would have recognised the servant Himself azwj.
But, Heazwj Made us as Hisazwj Doors, and Hisazwj Path, and Hisazwj Way, and Hisazwj

preferred over usasws, someone else, so it is they who [23:74] are deviating from
the (Straight) Path’.41

forefathers were threatened with this, these are nothing but ancient stories
[23:84] Say: Whose is the earth, and whoever is therein, if you know? [23:85]
They will say: Allah's. Say: So why are you not minding? [23:86] Say: Who is
the Lord of the seven skies and the Lord of the Magnificent Throne? [23:87]
They will be saying: (This is) Allah's. Say: So why are you not fearing? [23:88]
Say: Who is it in Whose hand is the Kingdom of all things and Who Gives
Protection, but against Him there can be no protection, if you are knowing?
[23:89] They will say: (This is) Allah's. Say: So why are you then deceived?
[23:90] But, We Came to them the Truth, and they are the liars [23:91] Never
did Allah take to Himself a son, and never was there with him any (other) god -
in that case would each god have taken away what he created, and some of

Then the Messenger of Allahsaww turned towards the Thanawiyya (Dualists) – who
said that light and darkness are the governing forces – and said: 'And you, what is it
that makes you to claim that which you say from this?' They said: 'We have found in
the universe duality, good and evil, and found good to be opposite of evil. We deny
that there is one doer of something as well as its opposite, but each of it has a
different doer. You see, ice cannot give heat just like it is impossible for fire to give
out coolness. This has proven to us that there are two forces from before, darkness
and light'.

‫ وخضرة وزرقة؟ وكل واحدة‬،‫ وحمرة وصفرة‬،‫ أفلستم قد وجدتم سوادا وبياضا‬:)‫فقال لهم رسول هللا (صلى هللا عليه وآله‬

Rasool-Allahsaww said to them: 'Have you not found to be in existence black, and
white, and red, and yellow, and green and blue? And each one of them is opposite to
the rest of them, and it is impossible for any two of them to be together in one place,
just like heat and cold are two opposite and it is impossible for them to be together in
one place?' They said: 'Yes'. Then why have you not proven it to yourselves for all
these types a different doer, for the doer of one cannot be the doer of the opposite
one?' Imam Hassan Al-Askariasws said: 'They were silenced'.

‫ وهذه من طبعها النزول؟ أرأيتم لو أن رجال أخذ شرفا‬،‫ وهذا من طبعه الصعود‬،‫ وكيف اختلط النور والظلمة‬:‫ثم قال‬
‫ فوجب أن ال يختلط‬:‫ قال‬.‫ ال‬:‫يمشي اليه واالخر غربا أكان يجوز ـ عندكم ـ أن يلتقيا ماداما سائرين على وجوههما؟ قالوا‬

.‫ سننظر في امورنا‬:‫ فقالوا‬،‫هما مدبران جميعا مخلوقان‬

Then hesaww said: 'And how can light be mixed with darkness, and this one has the
quality of ascension and this one has the quality of descent? You see, if a man walks
towards the east and another to the west, do you find it possible for them to meet up
on the way face to face?' They said: 'No'. Hesaww said: 'This necessitates that light
and darkness will never mix for each of them is on another direction. How did this
universe come into being, from the blending of those that are impossible to blend?
But, they are both forces of creation altogether'. They said: 'We will look into our
affairs'.48

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al-Hakam, from Muawiya Bin
Wahab, who has narrated:

Abu Abdullahasws said: ‘Rasool Allahsaww did not eat whilst leaning, since hesaww was
Sent by Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic, up to hissaww passing away. Hesaww was
modest for the Sake of Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic, and no one ever saw hissaww
knees is a gathering at all. And the Rasool Allah saww did not shake hands with a man
at all by pulling hissaww hand from his hand until the man would pull his own hand
from hissaww hands. The Rasool Allahsaww did not recompense anyone with evil at all.
Allahazwj the High Said to himsaww: [23:96] Repel evil by what is best, so hesaww did
it.

And he never denied any beggar at all. If hesaww had it with himsaww hesaww would give
it, or else hesaww would say: ‘Allahazwj will Give it’. And hesaww did not Give anything at
all on the Authorisation of Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic except that Allahazwj
Authorised that for himsaww even if it was the Paradise, Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic
Authorised that for himsaww’.

Heasws said: ‘And hissaww brother (Aliasws) from after himsaww, by the One Whoazwj Took
hisasws soul, did not eat anything at all Prohibited in the world until he asws exited from

obedience to Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic, heasws would take the one which was
more difficult upon hisasws body. By Allahazwj, heasws freed a thousand slaves for the
Sake of Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic, from the work of hisasws own hands. By
Allahazwj, no one could endure the deeds of the Rasool Allah saww after himsaww, apart

from himsaww for it. And whenever the Rasool Allahsaww sent himasws with hissaww flag,
so Jibraeel would fight on hisasws right and Mikaeel on hisasws left. Then heasws would

I said, ‘Allahazwj! O Abu Saeed, what are you reporting regarding Aliasws and what has
been heard from you saying regarding himasws?’ He said, ‘O brother, I (Hassan Al
Basry) am trying to save my blood from these oppressive tyrants, may the Curse of
Allahazwj be upon them. O my brother, had it not been for that, I would have been
lifted by the wood (my funeral would have taken place), but, I am saying what you
have heard so that it would reach them and they would hold back from me. But what
I mean by hatred towards Aliasws is hatred towards other than Aliasws Bin Abu
Talibasws, so that they will count me as a friend to them. Allahazwj has Said [23:96]
Repel evil by what is best, it means the ‘Taqqiya’ (dissimulation)’.52

[23:112] He will say: How many number of years did you remain in the earth?
[23:113] They will say: We remained for a day or part of a day, so ask those
who keep count [23:114] He will say: You did not remain except for a little
while - had you but known (it) [23:115] Did you reckon that We had Created
you in vain and that you shall not be returning to Us? [23:116] So Exalted is
Allah, the True King; there is no god but He, the Lord of the Honourable
Throne [23:117] And whoever invokes with Allah another god - he has no proof
of this – but rather his Reckoning is with his Lord; surely the unbelievers shall
not be successful [23:118] And say: O Lord! Forgive and have Mercy, and You
are the best of the Merciful ones
