He -asws said: ‘It was Revealed regarding Ali -asws Bin Abu Talib -asws in particular, besides the people’’.
Then it was Revealed Today I Perfected your Religion for you [5:3] at Kara’a Al-Ghameem, so Rasool-Allah -saww established it at Al-Johfa. Thus, no Obligation was Revealed after it’.
But, the Wilayah is the last of the Obligations, so Allah -azwj Revealed: Today I Perfected your Religion for you and Completed My Favour upon you, and am Pleased with Al Islam as a Religion for you [5:3] ’. Abu Ja’far -asws said: ‘Allah -azwj is Saying: “I -azwj will not be Revealing upon you an Obligation after this Obligation (of Wilayah)’’.
[32] محمد بن يعقوب: عن أبي محمد القاسم بن العلاء (رحمه الله)، رفعه، عن عبد العزيز بن مسلم، قال: كنا مع الرضا (عليه السلام) بمرو، فاجتمعنا في الجامع يوم الجمعة في بدء مقدمنا، فأداروا أمر الإمامة، و كثرة اختلاف الناس فيها، فدخلت على سيدي (عليه السلام)، فأعلمته في خوض الناس فيه، فتبسم (عليه السلام)، ثم قال: «يا عبد العزيز، جهل القوم، و خدعوا عن أديانهم Muhammad Bin Yaqoub, from Abu Muhammad Al-Qasim Bin Al-A’la, raising it, from Abdul Aziz Bin Muslim who said, ‘I was with Al-Reza -asws as Merv, and we had gathered in the Mosque on Friday during the beginning of our arrival.
So they were narrating the matter of the Imamate, and there was a lot of differing by the people with regards to it.
