He is between the two limits...

He is between the two limits, the limit of denial and the limit of immanence (similarity). He is neither body nor form nor accident nor essence. Rather, He is the Creator of bodies, the Maker of forms, the Originator of accidents and essences. He is the Lord of everything and their Master. He is their Originator and He is the One to grant them existence from non-existence. Prophethood I deem Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa (S) to be the slave of Allah, His Messenger and His last Prophet.

There will be no prophet after him till the Day of Judgment. His Shariah is the last Shariah and there will be no other Shariah till the Day of Resurrection. Imamat I believe that after Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa (S), the Imam, the Caliph, and the one in authority (Wali al-‘Amr) is Amir’ul-Mu’minin ‘Ali Ibn Abi Talib (a.s.), followed by his two sons, Imam Hasan al-Mujtaba (a.s.) and Imam Husayn (a.s.), the Chief of the Martyrs.

Thereafter, Imam ‘Ali Ibn Husayn (Zain ul-‘Abideen) (a.s.), Imam Muhammad Ibn ‘Ali (al-Baqir) (a.s.), Imam Ja'far Ibn Muhammad (as-Sadiq) (a.s.), Imam Musa Ibn Ja'far (Kadhim), Imam ‘Ali Ibn Musa (ar-Ridha’) (a.s.), Imam Muhammad Ibn ‘Ali (Taqi) (a.s.), and after him, you, O master! Mahdawiyyah {On hearing this} Imam (a.s.) remarked, 'After me, my son Hasan (al-‘Askari) (a.s.), followed by his successor. What will be the condition of the people concerning his successor?' I asked, 'Master!

What will be this condition and what will happen?' He (a.s.) informed, 'He will not be seen. It will not be permitted to remember him by his name till he reappears and fills the earth with justice and equity as it would be fraught with injustice and tyranny.' Tawalla and Tabarra Tawalla (Loving the Ahlul Bayt (a.s.)) and Tabarra (Expressing Disgust Against their Enemies) I said, 'Master! I acknowledge their Imamat and believe that their friend is Allah's friend and their enemy is Allah's enemy.

Their obedience is tantamount to obeying Allah and disobeying them is defying Allah. Day of Judgment I believe that the ascension (Me'raaj) is truth, questioning in the grave is truth, paradise is truth, hell is truth, the bridge (Seraat) is truth and the weighing scale (Meezaan) is truth. Certainly, the Day of Judgment is bound to arrive and there is no doubt or reservation about its advent. And most surely, Allah, the Powerful, will raise the dead from their graves.
