[17] \n The narrator of the Hadith says: \u2018Once I went to visit the (house of) the daughter of the Holy Prophet -saww and I saw with Syeda -asws a tablet in which the names of the executors (implementers) of the Wills (of Leaders with Divine Authority) from her descendants were written. I then (with Syeda -asws \u2018s permission) counted them to twelve. The last one\u2019s name was Al-Qa\u2019im -ajfj (the one who will rise with Divine Authority and power).

The name of three of them was Mohammed -asws and the name of another three was Ali -asws .\u2019 [18] \n The narrator of the Hadith says: Our 5 th Imam said: \u2018Allah -azwj Sent Muhammad -saww to all Jinn and man and appointed twelve executors of the will after him. Of these twelve people, there are those who have already left this world and there are those who will enter this world and complete their task.

All the executors of the Wills (of the Prophets -as ) experienced certain traditions, Sunnah. The number executors of the Will after Muhammad -saww , who explain the \u2018Sunnah\u2019, is the same as the number of executors of the will of Jesus (twelve.) Amir-ul-Momineen -asws experienced the tradition of Jesus.\u2019 [19] \n The narrator of the Hadith says: \u2018Amir-ul-Momineen -asws said to ibn \u2018Abbas, \u2018Layla al-Qadr (the night of destiny Verse 97:1-6) comes every year and in that night the command for the whole year is sent down.

The Command is (only) received by the Leaders with Divine Authority after the Rasool Allah -saww .\u2019 \n \u2018Ibn \u2018Abbas then asked, \u2018Who are they?\u2019 Amir-ul-Momineen -asws replied: \u2018I -asws and the 11 persons -asws from my -asws descendants -asws who all are \u2018A\u2019immah -asws (Leaders with Divine Authority), and Muhaddathun -asws , such persons to whom angels speak.\u2019 [20] \n   \n The narrator of the Hadith says: \u2018The Messenger of Allah -saww once said to his companions, \u2018You must believe in the Layla al-Qadr (Night of Destiny: Verse no.

97 in the Holy Quran). It is Ali -asws Ibn Abu Talib -asws and his eleven descendants -asws after me -saww . [21] \n The narrator of the Hadith says: \u2018Amir-ul-Momineen Ali -asws one day recited (the following Verses of the Holy Quran) to Abu Bakr, \u2018Do not think of those slain for the cause of Allah as dead.
