Thus all those who fulfill our covenant the Almighty Allah...

Thus all those who fulfill our covenant the Almighty Allah gives them Paradise and those who are inimical to us and do not fulfill our rights will remain in the Fire of Hell forever.”[^2] Again it is narrated from Imam Ja’far Sadiq (as) from Imam Ali Ibne Husain (as) that he said: “Indeed, knowledge of the scholars is most difficult and none can bear it except the proximate angels, messenger prophets or the man whose heart Allah has tested for faith.”[^3] Saffar in Basairud Darajaat has also mentioned this tradition and also through his own chain of narrators quoted from His Eminence, Abu Ja’far Baqir (as) that he said: “Our traditions are difficult, such that they could not be borne by anyone except the proximate angels, messenger prophets or the man tested for faith or a city that is having a strong fort.

Thus when our matter happens and our Mahdi reappears, men from our Shias would become like brave lions and sharp spears, they would trample our enemies under their feet and hit them with the claws of their hands.

And it is the time when the blessing of deliverance would be sent by the Almighty Allah on the people.”[^4] Through another chain of narrators from Abu Hamza Thumali from His Eminence, Abu Ja’far Baqir (as) it is narrated that he said: I heard His Eminence say: “Our traditions are really tough that except for three groups none can bear them: The messenger prophets or the proximate angels or the believer whose heart Allah has tested for faith.” Then he said: “O Abu Hamza don’t you see that the Almighty Allah has chosen for us the messenger prophets, the proximate angels and tested believers?”[^5] Through another chain of narrators, it is narrated from His Eminence that he said: “Traditions of Aale Muhammad (S) are difficult, serious, convincing, clear and sharp-witted.

None can bear them except the proximate angels, messenger prophets or the man whose heart the Almighty Allah has tested for faith, or a city that is walled.

Thus when our Qaim (aj) reappears, he would speak out and the Holy Qur’an would testify for him.”[^6] Through another chain of narrators again it is narrated from His Eminence that he said: “Our traditions are difficult, none brings faith on them except the proximate angels, messenger prophets or the man whose heart the Almighty Allah has tested for faith.
