Hadith 612
۞
Hadith.612 - Sulayman ibn Khalid said to Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as):
"May I be your ransom! Inform me about the obligations that Allah (swt), the Mighty and Majestic, has imposed upon the servants."
Imam (as) replied: "Testifying that there is no god but Allah (swt) and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah (sw), establishing the five daily prayers, giving zakat, performing the pilgrimage to the House (Kaaba), fasting during the month of Ramadan, and (accepting) the wilayah (divinely ordained leadership of the Imams). Whoever fulfils these and strives to do good, draws close (to what is right), and avoids all that is forbidden will enter Paradise."
612 - وَقَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ لِلصَّادِقِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ أَخْبِرْنِي عَنِ اَلْفَرَائِضِ اَلَّتِي فَرَضَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلَى اَلْعِبَادِ مَا هِيَ قَالَ
«شَهَادَةُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اَللَّهُ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ وَ إِقَامُ اَلصَّلَوَاتِ اَلْخَمْسِ وَ إِيتَاءُ اَلزَّكَاةِ وَ حِجُّ اَلْبَيْتِ وَ صِيَامُ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ اَلْوَلاَيَةُ
فَمَنْ أَقَامَهُنَّ وَ سَدَّدَ وَ قَارَبَ وَ اِجْتَنَبَ كُلَّ مُنْكَرٍ دَخَلَ اَلْجَنَّةَ.
