Hadith 33

hildren. Allah-azwj Taught Adam-as their-asws names’’. I was informed by Mahmoud Bin Abdullah Bin Ubeydullah Al Hafiz, by his chain from Zayd Bin Aslam, from Ibn Umar, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘On the Day of Qiyamah, Adam-as will pride with his-as son-as Shees-as, and I-saww, with Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. And his-asws equality of Idreesas with things, Idrees-as being fed after his-as expiry from the food of Paradise, and Ali-asws was fed during his-asws lifetime from its food, repeatedly. And Idrees-as has been named as such because he-as learnt (Daras) the Books, all of them, and Words of Exalted regarding Ali-asws: and one with whom is Knowledge of the Book [13: 43]. And Idrees-as is the first one to place the (foundations of) writing, and Ali-asws is the first one to place the grammar and the speech development. And his-asws equality with Noah-as in fifteen places. During the Covenant: And when We Took from the Prophets, their Covenants, [33: 7], and for Ali-asws is what is reported that Allah-azwj the Exalted Took the Covenant upon the Prophet-hood and Covenant of twelve Imams-asws) after me-saww’’. And he-as was specialised with the long life, so he-as remained among them for a thousand years, and the long life of his-asws son Al-Qaim-asws: And We Intend to Confer upon those who were weakened in the land, and to Make them Imams, and Make them the inheritors [28: 5] – the Verse. And Noah-as a sheykh of the Messengers-as and Ali-asws is sheykh of the Imams-asws. And He-azwj Said to Noah-as They said, ‘O Noah! You have disputed us [11: 32], and Ali-asws: So the one who argues with you [3: 61]. And the water sprung forth for Noah-as from between the fires: and the oven overflowed, [11: 40], and the star collapsed for Ali-asws from a well of the house, (I Swear) by the star when it swoops down [53: 1]. The supplication of Noah–as was answered, so the sky came down for him-saww with the Punishment, and it was Answered for Ali-asws with the Mercy. The ground sprouted vegetation for him-asws in an uncultivated and barren wilderness and others. Allah-azwj Mentioned Noah–as in His-azwj Book in forty-two places. Its first are His-azwj Words: Surely Allah chose Adam and Noah [3: 33], and its last is: And Nuh said: ‘My Lord! Do not leave [71: 26]. And Ali-asws is Mentioned in eighty-nine places that he-asws is Emir of the Momineen. And Noah-as was named as such due to the frequency of his-as lamentation (Noha) and ascetism, and He-azwj Said for Ali-asws: Safe is He who is obedient [39: 9]. And he-as is named as thankful: Surely, he was a grateful servant [17: 3], and Ali-asws is Named by his-asws name: and We Made for them a truthful tongue of Ali [19: 50]. And entirety of people were destroyed by the flood, besides his-as people: so We Rescued him and those who were with him in the ship, [7: 64], and the enemies of Ali-asws were destroyed in the flood of hostility, so they were thrown into Hell, and ones loving him-asws are successful: Surely, for the pious, there would be success [78: 31]. Noah-as is the second father-as, and Ali-asws is father-asws of the Imams-asws and the chiefs. And the name of Noah-as was derived for him-as from his-as attributes, and the name of Ali-asws from his-asws attributes, because he-asws is exalted: It was Said: “O Noah! Descend with Peace from Us [11: 48]. And He-azwj Said to Ali-asws: Greetings be on Progeny of Yaseen [37: 130]. And He-azwj Carried him-as upon the ship during the flood of water: And We Carried him upon (a ship) of panels and nails [54: 13]. And he-saww said for Ali-asws: ‘An example of People-asws of my-saww Household is like the ship of Noah-as’ – the Hadeeth. So, the ship of Ali-asws is a salvation from the Fire’’. [104]
REGARDING HIS-asws EQUALITY WITH IBRAHIM–as AND ISMAIL–as AND IS’HAQ–as
Ali-asws equates with Ibrahim–as in thirty qualities – Regarding the selection: He Selected him and Guided him [16: 121], and for Ali-asws: Surely Allah chose Adam [3: 33]. And regarding the guidance: to the Straight Path [16: 121], and for Ali-asws: and for every people there is a Guide [13: 7]. And regarding the good deeds: And We Gave him good (deed) in this world, [16: 122], and for Ali-asws: One who comes with the good deed, [6: 160]. And regarding the Blessings: And We Sent Blessings upon him [37: 113], and for Ali-asws: and His Blessings are upon you, the People of the Household, [11: 73]. And regarding the glad tidings: And We Gave him the glad tidings of Is’haq, [37: 112], and for Ali-asws: And He it
