Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books On The Khilafah Of ‘Ali Over Abu Bakr Hadith Al-Manzilah, the Golden Hadith ========================================= Shaykh Ibn Taymiyyah (d. 728 H) states: قال الرافضي الثالث قوله أنت مني بمنزلة هارون من موسى إلا انه لا نبي بعدي.... والجواب أن هذا الحديث ثبت في الصحيحين بلا ريب وغيرهما The Rafidhi said: The third (point) is his statement (to ‘Ali), “ You are to me of the status of Harun to Musa , except that there is no prophet after me.”....
The reply is: This hadith is authentic in the two Sahihs without any doubt , and in other books too.[^1] This is one of the very few, miraculous instances when our Shaykh submits to the truth about the authenticity of a pro-‘Ali hadith ! As he has conceded, the hadith is certainly sahih . Imam Muslim (d.
261 H) too recorded it in his Sahih in confirmation of this: حدثنا يحيى بن يحيى التميمي وأبو جعفر محمد بن الصباح وعبيدالله القواريري وسريج بن يونس كلهم عن يوسف بن الماجشون (واللفظ لابن الصباح) حدثنا يوسف أبو سلمة الماجشون حدثنا محمد بن المنكدر عن سعيد بن المسيب عن عامر بن سعد ابن أبي وقاص عن أبيه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم لعلي أنت مني بمنزلة هارون من موسى إلا أنه لا نبي بعدي Yahya b. Yahya al-Tamimi, Abu Ja’far Muhammad b. al-Sabah, ‘Ubayd Allah al-Qawariri and Surayj b.
Yunus – Yunus b. al-Majishun – Yusuf Abu Salamah al-Majishun – Muhammad b. al-Munkadar – Sa’id b. al-Musayyab – ‘Amir b. Sa’d b. Abi Waqqas – his father (Sa’d b. Abi Waqqas): The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said to ‘Ali: “ You are to me of the status of Harun to Musa , except that there is no prophet after me.”[^2] Imam Ahmad (d.
241 H) as well documents: حدثنا عبد الله حدثني أبى ثنا يحيى بن سعيد عن موسى الجهني قال دخلت على فاطمة بنت على فقال لها رفيقي أبو سهل كم لك قالت ستة وثمانون سنة قال ما سمعت من أبيك شيئا قالت حدثتني أسماء بنت عميس ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم قال لعلي أنت مني بمنزلة هارون من موسى الا أنه ليس بعدي نبي ‘Abd Allah (b. Ahmad) – my father (Ahmad b. Hanbal) – Yahya b.
Sa’id – Musa al-Juhani – Fatimah bint ‘Ali – Asma bint ‘Umays: The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said to ‘Ali: “ You are to me of the status of Harun to Musa , except that there is no prophet after me.”[^3] Shaykh al-Arnaut comments: إسناده صحيح Its chain is sahih ^4 We need not extend our research on the authenticity of the hadith , since there is no denial of it. So, we will simply cap the above with these words of Imam al-Kattani (d.
