Hadith of Adam, 'Alayhim al-Salam with the tree — Hadith 1

and Lut; and every one We made to excel (in) the worlds [6: 87] And from among their fathers and their descendants and their brethren, and We chose them and guided them into the right way”. “[6: 89] These are they to whom We gave the book and the wisdom and the prophecy; therefore if these disbelieve in it We have already entrusted with it a people who are not disbelievers in it”, for it has been Entrusted to the People from their (as) Household, and the brothers, and the descendants, and it is the Statement of Allah (azwj) Blessed and High that if your people were to deny it so He (azwj) has Entrusted it to the People (asws) of your (saww) Household with the Belief which He (azwj) Sent you (saww) with. So they will never deny it ever, and will not waste the Belief which you (saww) have been Sent with, the People (asws) of your (saww) Household from after you (saww), the knowledgeable ones (Ulamaa) of your (saww) community, and the Guardians of My (azwj) Command (Wali Al-Amr) after you (saww), and the people of the interpretation (Istinbaat) of the Knowledge in which there is lie, and no sin, and no forgery, and no arrogance, and no showing off. So this is the explanation of what ended up to him (saww) of the matters of the community. Allah (azwj) Purified the People (asws) of the Household of His (azwj) Prophet (saww), and asked them (the people) for the recompense of the cordiality (Muwaddat), and Made the ‘Wilayah’ to flow for them (asws), and Made them (asws) to be the successors (asws), and His (azwj) Beloved ones. He (saww) Established it after him (saww) in his (saww) community: ‘O you people! Learn a lesson from what I (saww) am saying to you. The place where Allah (azwj) has Placed His (azwj) Wilayah, and obedience to Him (azwj), and His (azwj) cordiality, and the interpretation of His (azwj) Knowledge, and His (azwj) Proofs, so these (asws) are the ones. So accept them (asws), and attach yourselves to them (asws) in order to be Rescued by it, and it will become an argument for you on the Day of Judgement, and the Path of your Lord (azwj) Majestic and Mighty. And you cannot arrive to the Wilayah of Allah (azwj) except through them (asws). So the one who does that would have the right for Allah (azwj) to Honour him and not Punish him. And the one who comes to Allah (azwj) without what He (azwj) has Commanded for, would have become deserving for Allah (azwj) to Humiliate him and Punish him’.
