Hadith 4

(The books) ‘Kunz Jamie Al Fawaaid’ and ‘Taweel Al Ayaat Al Zaahira’ – Muhammad Bin Al Abbas, from Ahmad Bin Howzah, from Ibrahim Bin Is’haq, from Abdullah Bin Hammad, from Aban Bin Taghlib who said, ‘I asked Abu Ja’far-asws about this Verse. He-asws said: ‘It is Ali-asws because Rasool-Allah-saww (is someone) there is no differing regarding him-saww’’. [4]
And it is mentioned by author of the book ‘Al Nakhab’ a Hadeeth attributed from Muhammad Bin Momin Al Shirazi, by his chain to Al Sudy in the interpretation of this Verse having said, ‘Sakhr Bin Harb came until he sat to Rasool-Allah-saww and said, ‘O Muhammad-saww! This command, after you-saww, is it going to be for us or for who? ’ He-saww said: ‘O Sakhr! The command from after me-saww is for the one, who is from me-saww, (who) is at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as. Allah-azwj the Exalted Revealed: What are they asking about? [78: 1] About the Magnificent News, [78: 2] Which they are differing in? [78: 3]. (He-saww said): ‘From them is the ratifier with his-asws Wilayah, and his-asws caliphate, and from them is the belier with these two’. Then He-azwj Said: ‘Never! – and it is a rebuttal to them – They shall soon come to know [78: 4] – his-asws caliphate after you-asws, it is true – Then (again), never! They shall soon come to know [78: 5]. He-azwj is Saying they would be recognising his-asws Wilayah and his-asws caliphate when they would be questioned about it in their graves. Thus, there is no deceased in the east, nor in the west, nor sea, nor land, except and Munkar and Nakeer (two questioning Angels) would question him about the Wilayah of Amir Al-Momineen-asws after the death. They would be saying to the deceased: ‘Who is your Lord-azwj, and what is your religion, and who is your Prophet-saww, and who is your Imam-asws? ’’[5]
And it is reported as well, ‘It is narrated to us by Ahmad, by his chain to Alqamah having said, ‘A man went out on the day of (battle of) Siffeen from the Syrian forces, and he had a weapon on him, and on top of it was the Parchment (Quran), and he was reciting: What are they asking about? [78: 1] About the Magnificent News, [78: 2], so I wanted to go for a duel towards him, but Ali-asws said to me: ‘(Stay in) your place! ’
And he-asws went out himself-asws and said to him: ‘Do you recognise: the Magnificent News, [78: 2] Which they are differing in? [78: 3]’ He said, ‘No’. Ali-asws said to him: ‘By Allah-azwj! I-asws am the Magnificent News about whom they are differing, and upon the Wilayah of whom they are disputing, and it was about my-asws Wilayah that you turned back after having accepted it, and by this rebellion of yours you were destroyed after having been rescued by my-asws sword, and of the Day of Ghadeer you have known, and on the Day of Qiyamah you will come to know what you had done’. Then he-asws raised his-asws sword and gestured by his-asws head and his-asws hand’’. [6]
