I submitted...

I submitted: I give witness that Allah is One and that Muhammad (S) is His messenger and I believe in all the things brought by the Holy Prophet (S) from the Almighty Allah and I also accept (believe) that Ali (a.s.) was the Imam whose obedience was made obligatory by Allah and that after him was Imam Hasan (a.s.) who was such Imam and thereafter Imam Husain (a.s.) whose obedience was made compulsory by Allah and that after him was Imam Ali bin Husain (a.s.) whose obedience was a must according to Divine Command and thereafter I described the names of all the subsequent Imams until I mentioned his name and said that I accept his Imamate as a must.

He said: Yes, this is the religion of Allah and the religion of the angels of Allah.[^2] [^1]: The writer says: This verse has been referred to because the Holy Prophet (S) had, on a number of occasions, ordered the people to obey the holy Imams and hence their obedience is the obedience of the prophet and the prophet’s obedience is the obedience of Allah. [^2]: The writer says: By the “angels’ religion” is meant that the angels also like this religion for the servants (human) of Allah.
