In it are a people who do not disobey Allahazwj at all, and do not recognise Ibleesla, nor do they know of the creation of Ibleesla. Wesws meet them all the time. They ask usasws of whatever their requirements may be, and they ask usasws to pray for them. Weasws teach them, and they ask usasws about ourasws Qaimasws until heasws makes hisasws appearance.

وفيهم عبادة واجتهاد شديد ولمدينتهم ابواب مابين المصراع إلى المصراع مأة فرسخ لهم تقديس واجتهاد شديدا لو ووجوههم الورقع راسه من سجوده طعامهم التسبيح ولباسهم رأيتموهم الحتقرتم عملكم يصلى الرجل منهم شهرا ال يرف

مشرقة بالنور إذا رأوا منا واحد لحسوه واجتمعوا إليه واخذوا من اثره إلى االرض يتبرآون بهAnd among them, they perform worship with great diligence, and for their city there are doors, the distance between one of its shutter to the other shutter is of forty Farsakhs. They perform (acts of worship) with great reverence and diligence. If you were to see them, you would despise your own deeds. The man among them Prays for a month without raising his head from prostration. Their food is the Praise, and their clothing is the paper, and their faces are shining by the light. If one of you were to see one of them, you would gather around him, and take from him the effects of it to the earth in order to be blessed by it. لهم دوى إذا صلوا اشد من دوى الريح العاصف فيهم جماعة لم يضعوا السالح منذ آانوا ينتظرون قائمنا يدعون ان يريهم اياه وعمر احدهم الف سنة إذا رأيتهم رأيت الخشوع واالستكانه وطلب ما يقربهم إليه إذا حبسنا ظنوا ان ذلك من سخط

يتعاهدون ساعة التى نائتيهم فيهاTheir sounds, which they make whilst Praying, is more severe than the sound made by the wind. The violent ones among them have not put down their weapons since the time they have been waiting for ourasws Qaimasws claiming that lest they should see himasws even if the age of one of them is of a thousand years. If you were to see them, you will see reverence and submissiveness, and they seek that which will bring them closer to himasws. If weasws are imprisoned, they think that this is from the difficulties of the time in which weasws will be coming to them.

ال يسئمون ال يفترون يتلون آتاب اهللا آما علمناهم وان فيما نعلمهم مالو تلى على الناس لكفروا به والنكروه يسئلوننا عن وا اهللا طول البقاء الشئ إذا ورد عليهم من القرآن وال يعرفونه فإذا اخبرناهم به انشرحت صدورهم لما يسمعون منا ويسئل

وان ال يفقدونا ويعلمون ان المنة من اهللا عليهم فيما نعلمهم عظيمةThey do not get bored, nor do they fabricate. They recite the Book of Allahazwj just as weasws have taught them, and that what weasws have taught them is what they recite to the people. They do not disbelieve in it, nor do they deny any of it. They ask usasws about something which they come across from the Quran, and they do not understand it, and if they are informed about it, their chests are pleased by it when they hear it from usasws. They ask Allahazwj to lengthen ourasws stay and that they should not lose usasws, and they know that this is a Favour from Allahazwj to them, for what weasws have taught them is great.

حيث يريد االمامThey will come out with the Imamasws if heasws makes a stand. Among them is an armed group and they supplicate to Allahazwj that Heazwj should Make them to be the ones by whom the Religion will triumph, including the elderly and the young ones of them. And if you were to see the young ones from them sees a middle-aged person, he would sit in front of him like the sitting of a slave, not getting up until he orders

them. For them is a way which they know of from the people, as to what is required by the Imamasws.

If the Imamasws were to order them with a command, they will keep to it forever until heasws issues an order other than that. If they respond to what is in between the East and the West from the creatures, they would do it in an hour. The iron does not break them as their swords are made of a metal other than this iron. If one of them were to strike at the mountain with his sword, it would disintegrate. The Imamasws will rise supported by them, Al-Hind (India), and Al-Daylam (Persia) and Al-Kark, and Al-Tark, and Al-Roum (Rome), and Berber (North Africa), and what is in between Jabarsa upto Jabalqa, and these two are cities. One of them is in the East and the other one is in the West. They will not come to a people of a religion except that they will invite them to Allahazwj, and to Islam, and to the acceptance of Muhammadsaww, and the one who does not submit, they will kill him, until there will not remain anyone in between the East and the West, and what is inside the mountain, except that he will accept’.

Heasws named them both’.

They do not disobey Allahazwj even for the blink of an eye. They do not know that Allahazwj Created Adamas or whether Heazwj did not Create himas.

8 – It has been narrated to us by Al-Husayn Bin Muhammad Bin Aamir, from Moala Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Jamhour, from Abdullah Bin Abdul Rahmaan, from Al-Hasam Bin Waaqid, from Muqaran who said: ‘I heard Abu Abdullahasws say: ‘Ibn Kawaa came up to Amir-ul-Momineenasws and said, ‘O Amir-ul-Momineenasws, “[7:46] And on the Heights are men who know them all by their marks”. Heasws said: ‘Weasws are the “A’raaf” (Recognisers). Weasws recognise ourasws helpers, and weasws are the “A’raaf” (Recognisers) who, Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic cannot be recognised except on theirasws Path. Weasws will not let anyone enter the Paradise except for the one, who recognises usasws, and we will recognise him, and weasws will not let anyone enter the Fire except for the one who denies usasws and weasws will deny him. If Allahazwj so Desires to, Heazwj can Recognise the servants Himselfazwj, but Heazwj has Made us to be Hisazwj Doors, and Hisazwj Path, and Hisazwj Way, and Hisazwj Perspective to get to Himazwj. The one who turned away from ourasws Wilayah, or preferred others over usasws, so he is the one who will fall headlong from the Bridge (Al-Siraat), and the one who stayed with it (Al-Wilayah) is not equal to the one who went where the people went. The people went to the turbid springs and some of it emptied into the others, whilst the one who came to usasws came to the clear spring flowing constantly without depletion or being cut off’.

عن ابى مريم االنصاري عن منهال بن حدثنا الحسين بن محمد عن معلى بن محمد قال حدثنى أبو الفضل المدايني) 9(

عمرو عن رزين بن حبيش قال سمعت عليا عليه السالم يقول ان العبد إذا دخل حفرته اتاه ملكان اسمهما منكر ونكير فاول من يسئالنه عن ربه ثم عن نبيه ثم عن وليه فان اجاب نجا وان عجز عذباه

9 – It has been narrated to us by Al-Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Moala Bin Muhammad, from Abu Al-FazAl-Al-Madainy, from Abu Maram Al-Ansar, from MinhaAl-Bin Amro, from Razeyn Bin Habeysh who said: ‘I heard Aliasws say that: ‘When the servant enters his grave, two Angels come up to him, called Munkar and Nakeer. Firstly, they will question him about his Lordazwj, then about his Prophetsaww, then about his Waliasws (Guardian). If he answers (correctly) he achieves salvation, and if he is unable to do so, he gets Punished’.

م يعرف وليه فقال مذبذب ال إلى هؤالء وال إلى هؤالء ومن يضلل اهللا فلن تجد له فقال له رجل لمن عرف ربه ونبيه ولسبيال ذلك السبيل له وقد قيل للنبى صلى اهللا عليه وآله من الولى يا نبى اهللا قال وليكم في هذا الزمان على عليه السالم

A man said to himasws, ‘For the one who recognises his Lordazwj, and his Prophetsaww, and does not recognise his Waliasws?’ Heasws said: ‘Not to those, and not to those, and one whom Allahazwj Let’s astray, that way will not be found for him, there will be no way for him. And it was said to the Prophetsaww, ‘Who is the Waliasws O Prophetsaww?’ Hesaww said: ‘Your Wali in this era is Aliasws, and the oneasws after himasws, hisasws successorasws, and for every era there is a knowledgeable oneasws that Allahazwj Argues by, lest that they would say similar to what the former ones said when they were separated from their Prophetsas, ‘Our Lordazwj, Send to us a

Messenger so that we may follow Yourazwj Signs before we become disgraced and discredited’. They were completely misguided and ignorant from the Signs, as were (established) for the successorsas (of their Prophetsas)

تربصوا فستعلمون من اصحاب الصراط السوى ومن اهتدى فانما آان تربصهم ان قالوا نحن في سعة عن فأجابهم اهللا قلمعرفة االوصياء حتى نعرف اماما فعرفهم اهللا بذلك واالوصياء اصحاب الصراط وقوف عليه ال يدخل الجنة اال من

Allahazwj Answered them. Heazwj Said “[20:135] Await: So you will come to know who is the follower of the even path and who goes right.” So, their waiting was that they said, ‘We are at the moment waiting to recognise the successoras until we end up recognising the Imamasws. So, due to that Allahazwj enabled them to recognise that. The successorsasws are the Masters of the Bridge (Al-Siraat). They will be made to pause to themasws. None will enter the Paradise except the one who recognises themasws and theyasws recognise him, and none will enter the Fire except the one who denies themasws and theyasws deny him, because theyasws are the recognisers (Urafaa) of Allahazwj whom Allahazwj Made themasws to be recognised when the Covenant was taken with them, and has Described them in Hisazwj Book. The Mighty and Majestic Said “[7:46] And on the Heights are men who know them all by their marks”.

هم والنبى الشهيد عليهم اخذ لهم مواثيق العباد بالطاعة واخذ النبي صلى اهللا عليه وآله عليهم هم الشهداء على اوليائالمواثيق بالطاعة فجرت نبوته عليهم وذلك قول اهللا فكيف إذا جئنا من آل امة بشهيد وجئنا بك على هؤالء شهيدا يومئذ

. اهللا حديثايود الذين آفروا وعصوا الرسول لو تسوى بهم االرض وال يكتمون Theyasws are witnesses over theirasws friends, and the prophetsaww is the witness over themasws, having taken a Covenant for themasws over the servants of their obedience to themasws, and the Prophetsaww took a Covenant to themasws for theirasws obedience to himsaww. Hissaww Prophet-hood flows through themasws, and that is the Statement of Allahazwj “[4:41] How will it be, then, when We bring from every people a witness and bring you as a witness against these? [4:42] On that day will those who disbelieve and disobey the Messenger desire that the earth were levelled with them, and they shall not hide any word from Allah”

Allahazwj cannot be recognised except by way of yourasws recognition, and the recognisers will not let anyone enter the Paradise except the one who recognises themasws and theyasws will recognise him, and the recognisers will not let anyone enter the Fire except the one who denies themasws and theyasws will deny him’.

11 – It has been narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Al-Husayn, from Muha Bin Sa’dan, from Abdullah Bin Al-Qasim, from one of his companions, from Sa’d Al-Askaaf who said: ‘I said to Abu Ja’farasws, the Statement of the Mighty and Majestic “[7:46] And on the Heights are men who know them all by their marks”. Heasws said: ‘Theyasws are the “A’raaf” (Recognisers) who will not let anyone enter the Paradise except the one who recognises themasws and theyasws will recognise him, and will not let anyone enter the Fire except the one who denies themasws and theyasws will deny him. Allahazwj cannot be recognised except by the way of theirasws recognition. They are not equal to the one who stages a sitting and those that sit in it. And the one who went on the religion of the people, the people went to a turbid spring emptying one on to the other, and the one who came to the Progenyasws of Muhammadsaww, came to a clean spring flowing with the knowledge of Allahazwj, for which there is no depletion nor interruption (in the flow), and that Allahazwj, had Heazwj so Desired, would not have Nurtured the person until he came to Hisazwj door, because Allahazwj has Made Muhammadsaww and the Progenyasws of Muhammadsaww as Doors which are from Himazwj, and that is Hisazwj Statement “[2:189] and it is not righteousness that you should enter the houses at their backs, but righteousness is this that one should guard; and go into the houses by their doors”.

When he was alone with himasws, he said, ‘O son of my brotherasws, it is known that the Messenger of Allahsaww had made the bequest and the Imamate from after himsaww to Aliasws Bin Abu Talibasws, then to Al-Hassanasws, then to Al-Husaynasws, and yourasws fatherasws has been killed and heasws did not bequeath, and I am yourasws uncle, and a twin of yourasws father, and have been born from Aliasws, and I, in age am older and more deserving of it than youasws are regarding recent events.

Abu Ja’farasws said: ‘There was a discussion between them at Mecca, and they went until they came up to the Stone. Aliasws said to Muhammad: ‘Demonstrate it by supplicating to Allahazwj and ask it to speak to you’. Muhammad asked it, and supplicated in the supplication, and asked Allahazwj. Then he called out to the Stone. It did not answer him. Aliasws Bin Al-Husaynasws said to him: ‘But, O uncle, if you were the successorasws and the Imamasws, it would have answered you’. Muhammad said to himasws, ‘You supplicate, O sonasws of my brotherasws, and ask it’. Aliasws Bin Al-
