\n They said, \u2018O Rasool-Allah -saww !

\n They said, \u2018O Rasool-Allah -saww ! Explain to us what this Rope is?\u2019 He -saww said: \u2018 [3:112] except with a Rope from Allah and a Rope from the people . So, the Rope from Allah -azwj is His -azwj Book, and the Rope from the people is my -saww successor -asws \u2019. \n They said, \u2018O Rasool-Allah -saww !

And who is your -saww successor -asws ?\u2019 So he -saww said: \u2018He -asws is the one regarding whom Allah -azwj Revealed Lest a soul should say: O regret, for what I wasted regarding the Side of Allah [39:56] \u2019. \n They said, \u2018O Rasool-Allah -saww ! And what is this Side of Allah -azwj (\u062c\u0646\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647)?\u2019 So he -saww said: \u2018He -asws is the one regarding whom Allah -azwj Says And on the Day when the unjust one shall bite his hands saying: Alas!

If only I had grabbed hold of Sabeel along with the Rasool [25:27] \u2013 My -saww successor -asws is the Way me -saww from after me -saww \u2019. \n They said, \u2018O Rasool-Allah -saww ! By the One -azwj Who Sent you -saww ! Show him -asws to us for we long for him -asws \u2019. He -saww said: \u2018He -asws is the One for whom Allah -azwj Made Signs for those who distinguish (the marks) [15:75] .

\n So, if you were to look at him -asws you will be looking at the one who has a heart for him, or casts the hearing, and he is a witness\u00a0 [50:37] , you would know that he -asws is my -saww successor -asws just as you recognise that I -saww am your Prophet -saww , so make rows and browse the faces (an extract).

[8] \n \u2018From Abu Abdullah -asws , he (the narrator) said, \u2018I said to him -asws , \u2018Words of Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic: Surely, We would Help Our Rasools and those who believe, in the life of the world and on the Day the witnesses would stand [40:51] \u2019.
