Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Book of Occultation The Words of Allah and His Messenger About the Qā'im Narrated By the Shiah and the Sunnah 1- Al-Ghaiba of al-Ne‘māni: Anas Ibn Mālik says, the Messenger of Allah (a.s) said, “We the children of ‘Abd al-Mutallib are the lieges of the Paradise dwellers; the Messenger of Allah, Hamza, the liege of the martyrs, Ja‘far flying with two wings, ‘Ali, Fātimah, Hasan, Husain, and the Mahdi.” Al-Ghaiba of Sheikh Tusi narrates an identical tradition through a different chain of narration that merges with that of Ne‘māni at Sa‘d Ibn ‘Abd il-Hamīd.

2- ‘ Uyūn Akhbār al-Redhā: Al-Redhā (a.s) narrates through his holy forefathers, from the Messenger of Allah (a.s), “The Hour shall not stand until the Establisher ( Qā'im ) of Righteousness from us uprises. And that will be when Allah, the Glorified, gives him permission. Whoever follows him will find salvation and whoever falls behind will perish. For Allah’s sake, for Allah’s sake! Servants of Allah!

Come to him even if you have to walk on ice, for he is the vicegerent of Allah, the Exalted, and my vicegerent.” 3- Al-Amāli of Sadūq: Ibn ‘Abbās says, Said the Messenger of Allah (a.s), “When I was raised for the Mi‘rāj to the seventh heaven, and from there to the Lot Tree, and from the Lot Tree to the Veils of Light, my Lord, the Exalted, called on me, ‘Yā Muhammad, you are my servant and I am your Lord.

So be humble for Me and worship Me and trust Me and have confidence in Me, for I am pleased with you as a servant, as a beloved, as a Messenger, as an Apostle; and with your brother as the vicegerent and as the gateway. He is My Hujja over My servants and the Imam for My creation. Through him, My friends are known from My enemies and through him the party of Satan is distinguished from My party. Through him My religion will be established, and My codes observed, and My rules executed.

Through you, through him, and through the Imams from your progeny, I confer mercy upon My servants and bondmaids.
