Hadith 840

breaking the Pact of Allah from after Covenanting it and are cutting asunder what Allah has Commanded to be joined, [2: 27] – meaning one who connects with Amir Al-Momineen-asws and the Imams-asws, and are making mischief in the land; those are the losers [2: 27]’’. [142]
Tafseer Imam-asws (Hassan Al-Askari-asws) – And the Words of the Mighty and Majestic: And believe in what I have Revealed, a ratification of what is with you, and do not become the first disbeliever by it, and do not be exchanging My verses for a small price; and from Me you should be fearing [2: 41]. The Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws) said: ‘Then Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said to the Jews And believe O you Jews! in what I have Revealed unto Muhammad-saww My-azwj Prophet-saww from the mention of his-saww Prophet-hood and the news of the Imamate of his-saww brother Ali-asws and his-saww goodly Progeny-asws, the purified, a ratification of what is with you, for the example of this Remembrance in your Books that Muhammad-saww is the Chief of the former ones and the latter ones, the one supported by the Chief of the successors-as, the Caliph of the Rasool-saww of the Lord-azwj of the Worlds, the differentiator of this community, the door to the city of wisdom, and the Successor-asws of the Rasool-saww of the Lord-azwj of Mercy’. And do not be exchanging My verses – the Revelation of the Prophet-hood of Muhammad-saww and the Imamate of Ali-asws and the goodly from his-saww Family-asws for a small price – by your rejecting the Prophet-hood of the Prophet Muhammad-saww, and the Imamate of Imam Ali-asws and their-asws Progeny-asws – and be substituting instead the display of the world, for that, even if it is a lot, it would enter you into losses and failures. Then the Mighty and Majestic Said: And from Me you should be fearing in the concealment of the matter of Muhammad-saww and the matter of his-saww successor-asws. So if you are fearing, you will not be slandering regarding the Prophet-hood of the Prophet-saww, nor regarding the successorship of the successor-asws. But, the arguments have been established upon you all, and His-saww proofs with that are clear. Your excuses have been cut off and your camouflage has been invalidated. And those Jews of Al-Medina rejected the Prophet-hood of Muhammad-saww and betrayed him-saww, and they said, ‘We know that Muhammad-saww is a Prophet-saww, and that Ali-asws is his-saww successor-asws, you-saww aren’t that one, nor is he-asws this one’ –gesturing towards Ali-asws. Allah-azwj Caused their clothes which were upon them, and their shoes which were in their legs to speak, each one saying to its wearer, ‘You are lying, O enemy of Allah-azwj! But, the Prophet-saww Muhammad-saww, is this one, and the successor Ali-asws is this one, and had Allah-azwj Permitted us we would have squeezed you, and cut you, and killed you’. Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic gave them Respite in accordance with His-azwj Knowledge that He-azwj would be Bringing out from their backs, goodly offspring, Momineen. And had they slipped, Allah-azwj could have Punished them with a painful Punishment. But rather, hasty is the one who fears the loss of opportunity’’. [143]
Tafseer Imam-asws (Hassan Al-Askari-asws) – And establish the Salat and give the Zakat and perform Ruku with the Ruku performers [2: 43]. He-asws said: ‘And establish the Salat [2: 43] – The prescribed ones which Muhammad-saww came with, and establish as well the Salawat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww goodly Progeny-asws, the clean ones-asws – who Ali-asws is their-asws Chief and their-asws superior. And give the Zakat – from your wealth when you can find it, and from your bodies when required, and from your assistances when sought. And perform Ruku with the Ruku performers –
