Hadith 472
۞
Muhammad b. Ahmad al-Sinani (ra) narrated to us. He said: Muhammad b. Abi `Abdillah al-Asadi al-Kufi narrated to us. He said: Musa b. `Imran al-Nakha`i narrated to us from his uncle al-Husayn b. Yazid from `Ali b. Salim from his father from Sa`d b. Turayf from Sa`id b. Jubayr from Ibn `Abbas. He said
The Messenger of Allah (s) said to `Ali (as): O `Ali! You are the Imam of the Muslims, the Commander of the Faithful, the Leader of the shining believers, the Proof of Allah after me over the whole creation, the Master of Deputies, and the Deputy of the Master of Prophets. O `Ali! When I was taken up to the seventh heaven, and from there to the Lote Tree of the Furthest Boundary (sidratul muntaha), and from there to the veils of light, my Lord ennobled me with His whisper. He said to me: “O Muhammad!” I said: “I am here at Your service, my Lord, may You be glorified and exalted.” He said: “Surely, `Ali is the Imam of My friends, the light of whoever obeys Me, and the word that the pious stick to. Whoever obeys him has obeyed Me, and whoever disobeys Him has disobeyed Me. So, give him glad tidings of that.” So, `Ali (as) said: O Messenger of Allah! Is my omen such that I would be mentioned there?! So, he said: Yes, `Ali. So, thank your Lord. So, `Ali (as) fell in prostration, thanking Allah for what He had blessed him with. So, the Messenger of Allah (s) said to him: Raise your head, `Ali, for surely, Allah has boasted about you to His angels.
16 - حدثنا محمد بن أحمد السناني (رضي الله عنه)، قال: حدثنا محمد بن أبي عبد الله الاسدي الكوفي، قال: حدثنا موسى بن عمران النخعي، عن عمه الحسين بن يزيد، عن علي بن سالم، عن أبيه، عن سعد بن طريف، عن سعيد بن جبير، عن ابن عباس، قال
قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) لعلي (عليه السلام): يا علي، أنت إمام المسلمين، وأمير المؤمنين، وقائد الغر المحجلين، وحجة الله بعدي على الخلق أجمعين، وسيد الوصيين ووصيي سيد النبيين. يا علي، إنه لما عرج بي إلى السماء السابعة، ومنها إلى سدرة المنتهى، ومنها إلى حجب النور، وأكرمني ربي جل جلاله بمناجاته، قال لي: يا محمد؟ قلت: لبيك ربي وسعديك، تباركت وتعاليت، قال: إن عليا إمام أوليائي، ونور لمن أطاعني، وهو الكلمة التي ألزمتها المتقين، من أطاعه أطاعني، ومن عصاه عصاني، فبشره بذلك. فقال علي (عليه السلام): يا رسول الله، بلغ من قدري حتى إني اذكر هناك! فقال: نعم يا علي، فاشكر ربك، فخر علي (عليه السلام) ساجدا شكرا لله على ما أنعم به عليه، فقال له رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): ارفع رأسك يا علي، فإن الله قد باهى بك ملائكته (1).
