He -azwj has Given me the totality of speech (The Quran) and Given to Ali -asws the totality of the Knowledge, and has Made me -saww a Prophet and Made him -asws a successor, and Gave me -saww Al-Kausar and Gave him Al-Salsabeel , ( (Of) a Fountain therein named as Salsabeel [76:18] ), and Gave me -saww the Revelation and Gave him -asws the Inspiration, and Took me -saww to Him -azwj ( Me’raaj ) and Opened for him -asws the Gateways of the sky and the Veil until he -asws looked at me -saww and I -saww looked at him -asws .’ قال: ثم بكى رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله)، فقلت له: ما يبكيك فداك أبي و أمي؟ He said, ‘Then Rasool-Allah -saww wept, so I said to him.

‘What makes you -saww cry, may my father and my mother be sacrificed for you -saww ?’ قال: «يا بن عباس، إن أول ما كلمني به أن قال: يا محمد، انظر تحتك، فنظرت إلى الحجب قد انخرقت، و إلى أبواب السماء قد فتحت، و نظرت إلى علي و هو رافع رأسه إلي، فكلمني و كلمته، و كلمني ربي عز و جل He -saww said: ‘O Ibn Abbas, it was the first thing that was said to me -saww , which was: ‘O Muhammad -saww !

Look under you -saww .’ I -saww looked towards the Veil which was breached, and towards the Gateways of the sky which were open, and looked at Ali -asws and he -asws had raised his -asws head towards me -saww . He -asws spoke to me -saww , and I -saww spoke to him -asws , and My -saww Lord -azwj Mighty and Majestic Spoke to me -saww ’. قلت: يا رسول الله بم كلمك ربك؟ قال: «قال لي: يا محمد، إني جعلت عليا وصيك و وزيرك و خليفتك من بعدك، فأعلمه، فها هو يسمع كلامك.
