And the Words of the Exalted...

And the Words of the Exalted: and We Apportioned the travelling therein , so the travelling is like the Knowledge, journeying with it nights and days.

The example of the one who journeys from the Knowledge during the nights and the days from us -asws to them (Shias), regarding the Permissible and the Prohibited, and the Obligations and the Judgements, there is safety in it when it is taken from him -asws , safety from the doubt and the straying, and the transferring from the Prohibited to (become) the Permissible, because they are taking the Knowledge from the ones -asws whom it is Obligated for them to take it from them -asws , with the Forgiveness.

(This is) because they -asws are the people -asws who inherited the Knowledge from Adam -as to where it has ended, children of Mustafa -saww , from each other. It has not ended up to you, but it has ended up with us -asws , and we -asws are the children, the Chosen ones, not you and those that resemble you, O Hassan! I -asws say to you – what you are claiming is not for you, and is not to you, O ignorant one of the people of Al-Basra!

I -asws am not saying regarding you except what I -asws know of from you, and it manifests to me -asws from you. And beware that you should be speaking of the delegation, for Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic does not Delegate the Command to His -azwj creatures, and over here would be a weakness from Him -azwj , and He -azwj does not Compel them upon the disobedience (or) injustice’ – and the Hadeeth is lengthy and I have taken from it the needed matter’’.

[7] ‘From Abu Abdullah -asws (6 th Imam) having said: ‘When Allah -azwj Commanded His -azwj Rasool -saww to nominate Amir Al-Momineen -asws for the people in His -azwj Words: O you Rasool! Deliver what has been Revealed unto you from your Lord; [5:67] regarding Ali -asws at Ghadeer Khumm, he -saww said: ‘One whose Master I -saww was, so Ali -asws is his Master -asws ’. The devils came to the greatest devil (Iblees -la ), and they poured dust upon their -la heads.

Iblees -la said to them -la , ‘What is the matter with you all?’ They -la said, ‘This man -saww has tightened a pact today such a pact, nothing can loosen it up to the Day of Qiyamah!’ Iblees -la said to them, ‘Never! Those around him -saww , a number of them have promised me -la they will never oppose me -la ’. So, Allah -azwj Revealed: And Iblees did ratify his conjecture upon them, [34:20] – the Verse’’.
