Hadith 147

wj Said to Musa-as: And We Prescribed to him in the Tablets, from all things [7: 145]. So we know that He-azwj did not Prescribe all the things to Musa-asws. And Allah-saww Said to Isa-as: In order to Clarify to them which they are differing in [16: 39]. And Allah-azwj Said to Muhammad-saww, may the greeting be upon him-saww: and We shall Come with you as a witness upon these (witnesses). [16: 89]’’. [201]
Tafseer Al Ayyashi – from Mas’ada Bin Sadaqa, ‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘But rather the healing in knowledge of the Quran is due to His-azwj Words: And We Reveal from the Quran what is a healing and a Mercy for the Momineen, [17: 82], for his-saww people. There is no doubt in it nor any suspicion, and his-saww people are the Imams-asws of Guidance, those Allah-azwj Said: ‘Then We Gave the Book as an inheritance to those We Chose from among Our servants [35: 32]’’. [202]
(The book) ‘Al Ghayba’ of Al Numani –
‘The Prophet-saww said in his-saww famous sermon which he-saww addressed in Masjid Al-Khief during the farewell Hajj: ‘I-saww and you all will be arriving at the Fountain, a Fountain its width is what is between Busra up to Sana’a. In it are cups of the number of stars of the sky! And I-saww am leaving behind among you all the two weighty things. The bigger weighty thing is the Quran and the smaller weighty thing is my-saww family-asws, and People-asws of my-saww Household. They are both the rope of Allah-azwj extended between you and Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic! For as long as you hold on to it, you will not stray. A cause from it is in the Hand of Allah-azwj and a cause from it is in your hands! ’
And in another report: ‘And end is in the Hand of Allah-azwj and an end is in your hands! The Gentle, the All-Informed has Given me-asws the news that these two will never separate until they return to me-saww at the Fountain, like these two fingers’ – and he-saww gathered between his-saww two index fingers – ‘And I-saww am not saying like these two’ – and he-saww gathered between his-saww index finger and the middle finger’ – ‘So this one would have preference over this! ’’[203]
(The book) ‘Al Durr Al Bahira’ –
‘Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The book of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic is based upon four things – upon the text, and the indications, and the subtleties, and the realities. The text is for the general public, and the indications are for the special ones, and the subtleties are for the Guardians-asws, and the realities are for the Prophets-as’’. [204]
(The book) ‘Asraar Al Salaat’ –
‘Ali-asws said: ‘If I-asws so desire, I-asws can load seventy camels from interpretation of Surah Al Fatiha’’. [205]
The Seyyid Bin Tawoos, may Allah-azwj Mercy him, said in the book ‘Sa’ad Al Saoud’, ‘It is reported by Yusuf Bin Abdullah Bin Muhammad Bin Abdul Birr in the book ‘Al Istiyaab’, from Muabbar Wahb Bin Abdullah, from Abu Al Tufeyl who said, ‘I witnessed Ali-asws addressing and he-asws said: ‘Ask me-asws! By Allah-azwj, you will not ask me about anything except I-asws will inform you, and ask me-asws about the Book of Allah-azwj! By Allah-azwj, there is none from a Verse except and I-asws know whether it was Revealed at night, or at daytime, or in a coast or in a mountain’’. [206]
Explanation – I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘And Abdul Haamid Al-Gazaly said in the book ‘Bayan Al-Ilm Al Ladany’ in description of our Master-asws Ali Bin Abu Talib-asws what its wording is this – ‘And Amir Al-Momineen-asws Ali-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww inserted his-saww tongue in my-asws mouth, so a thousand doors of knowledge opened up in my heart, with each door were a thousand doors’’. And he-asws, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon him-asws, said: ‘If a pillow (platform) were to be set up for me-asws and I-asws were to sit upon it, I-asws have judged for people of the Torah with their Torah, and for people of the Evangel with their Evangel, and for people of the Quran with their Quran! ’’
And this rank cannot be attained with the knowledge alone, but the person is enabled in this rank by strength of the Divine Knowledge. And he said, ‘When Ali-asws narrated the Covenant: ‘The commentary of his-as book was of forty camels. Had Allah-azwj and His-azwj Permitted for me-asws, I-asws would have swiftly explained a thousand meaning of (Surah) Al Fatiha until it would have reached similar to that’, meaning forty loads, or camels, and this is a lot in capacity and the opening in the knowledge cannot be except for Divine, heavenly, Godly’.
