Hadith 7

(The book) ‘Al Kafi’ – Ali, from his father, from Amro Bin Usman, from Ali Bin Isa, raising it, said, ‘Musa-as, Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted Whispered to him-as. He-azwj Said in His-azwj Whispering: ‘O Musa-as! Do not have long hopes regarding the world. That would harden your-as heart, and the hard-hearted one is remote from Me-azwj. O Musa-as! Turn yourself-as (to obedience) for the sake of My-azwj Pleasure, for if My-azwj Pleasure is obeyed, so I-azwj am not disobeyed. Kill your heart with the fear and create new clothes for the heart. You-as will be hidden from the people of the earth and be recognised by the people of the sky. Spread out the lamps in your house at night and plead before Me-azwj with the pleading of the patient ones and wail to Me-azwj from the great number of the sins like the wailing of the sinner who has fled from his enemies. And seek help for that from Me-azwj for I-azwj am the Best of the Helpers, and the best of the Supporters. O Musa-as! I-azwj am Allah-azwj high above the servants, and the servants are below Me-azwj, and everyone is helpless before Me-azwj. Accuse yourself for having wronged yourself, and do not trust your-as son upon your-as Religion unless he becomes like you-as, loving the righteous ones. O Musa-as! Wash and bathe and be near to My-azwj righteous servants. O Musa-as! Be their Imam in their Prayers, and their Imam in what they squabble about, and judge between them by what I-azwj have Revealed unto you-as. I-azwj have Sent it down as a clear and luminous Proof, and a Light Speaking by what had transpired regarding the former ones and what will be regarding the later ones. I-azwj Bequeath to you-as, O Musa-as, a bequest of the compassionate, the kind-hearted son of the Pious Lady, Isa-as son of Maryam-as, owner of the mule, and the hooded gown, and the oil and the olive, and the Prayer Niche. And from after him-saww, about the owner of the red camel, the food, and pure, the purified. His-saww example in your-as Book is that he-saww is a believer, dominant over all the Books, and that he-saww is the bowing one (performing Ruk’u), the prostrating one (performing Sajdah), a seeker, a Monk, his-saww brothers will be the poor, and his-saww helpers will be another people, and there will occur in his-saww era hardships and earthquakes, killings, and shortages of the wealth. His-saww name would be Ahmad-saww, Muhammad-saww, the trusted one from the remaining ones of the previous generations. He-saww will believe in all the Books and ratify all the Messengers-as and testify sincerely for all the Prophets-as. His-saww community will be the ones under the Mercy, Blessed with what will remain in the Religion upon its reality. They will fulfil their Prayers at its prescribed times, as servants optionally do for their chiefs, acknowledge him-saww and follow his-saww path. So he-saww is your-as brother. O Musa-as! He-saww is the ‘Ummy’, and he-saww is a truthful servant. Whatever he-saww place
