He carried with him letters from the people of Kufa who invited him to their (city) and informed him of their coming together and asking him to rise. Abu Ja’far (a.s.) then asked him, “Are these letters their initiative or as response to what you had written to them and ask them to do?” He said that it was their initiative because they acknowledge our rights and because of our being from the family of the Messenger of Allah. It is also because of what they read in the book of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most gracious, about the obligation to love us and must obey us. Also it is because of the suffering, impediments and afflictions that we had been through.” Abu Ja’far (a.s.) said to him, “ Obedience is an obligation from Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most gracious. It is a tradition Sunna that He had established in the people of the past and in the same way it will continue in the later generations of the people.
