Thus in the Tafseer al-Burhan and Ghayat al-Maraam it is narrated from His Eminence, Imam Hasan Mujtaba (as) that he said in a sermon: “We are a family whose love the Almighty Allah has made compulsory on every Muslim when He said: قُلْ لَا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا إِلَّا الْمَوَدَّةَ فِي الْقُرْبَىٰ “Say: I do not ask of you any reward for it but love for my near relatives.” (Qur’an, Surah Shura 42:23) [^1] And in the same two books it is narrated from Imam Ja’far Sadiq (as) from his venerable forefathers that: When the following verse was revealed on the Holy Prophet (S): “Say: I do not ask of you any reward for it but love for my near relatives.” The Holy Prophet (S) stood up and said: “O people, Allah, the Mighty and the High has made a matter obligatory on you; will you fulfill it?” None of them replied.
