Abu Al-Hassan Al-Shazany...

Abu Al-Hassan Al-Shazany, from Abu Saeed Al-Khudry who said, ‘I heard Rasool-Allah -saww saying: ‘When it will be the Day of Judgement, Allah -azwj the High would Command two Angels to be seated upon the Bridge (الصراط). So they would not allow anyone (to pass) except with an approval of Ali -asws Bin Abu Talib -asws .

And the one who does not have an approval of Amir-Al-Momineen -asws , Allah -azwj would Have him to be grabbed by his nostrils and flung into the Fire, and these are the Words of the Exalted: And stop them! They have to be Questioned [37:24] ’. قلت: فداك أبي و أمي- يا رسول الله- ما معنى البراءة التي أعطاها علي؟ فقال: «مكتوب: لا إله إلا الله، محمد رسول الله، و أمير المؤمنين علي بن أبي طالب وصي رسول الله». I said, ‘May my father and my mother be sacrificed for you -saww , O Rasool-Allah -saww !

What is the meaning of the ‘approval’ which Ali -asws would be giving out?’ So he -saww said: ‘A written (permit) – ‘There is no god except for Allah -azwj , Muhammad -saww is Rasool-Allah -saww , and Amir-Al-Momineen -asws Ali -asws Bin Abu Talib -asws is the successor -asws of Rasool-Allah -saww ’.

Al-Sheykh in his Amaali, from Abu Muhammad Al-Faham, from Abu Al-Fazal Muhammad Bin Hashim bin Hisham Al-Hasimy the Prayer leader at Sur Man Rayy, from Abu hashim Bin Al-Qasim, from Muhammad Bin Zakariyya Bin Abdullah Al-Jowhary Al-Basry, from Abdullah Bin Al-Masny, from Samamat Bin Abdullah Bin Anas Bin Malik, from his father, from his grandfather, (It has been narrated) from the Prophet -saww having said: ‘When it will be the Day of Judgement, and the Bridge would be Established over Hell, no one would be permitted to cross over it except the one with whom would be a permit in which is (mentioned) the Wilayah of Ali -asws Bin Abu Talib -asws , and these are the Words of the Exalted: And stop them!

They have to be Questioned [37:24] , meaning about the Wilayah of Ali -asws Bin Abu Talib -asws ’.
