Duwa | Hubeali en-US Duwa | Hubeali 32 32 AL-RAHMAN (Chapter 55) Sura Al-Rahman (78 verses) was revealed in Medina.[1] ‘From Al-Reza-asws (8th Imam) regarding Words of the Exalted: ‘I asked him-asws about the Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: The Beneficent [55:1] Taught the Quran [55:2], so he-asws said: ‘Allah-azwj Taught Muhammad-saww the Quran’. I said, ‘(What about): Created the human being [55:3]?’ He-asws said: ‘That is Amir Al-Momineen-asws’. I said, ‘Taught him the clarification [55:4]?’ He-azwj Taught him-asws the clarification of everything from what the people would be needy to him-asws. I-asws said: ‘The sun and the moon are both with Reckonings [55:5]?’ He-asws said: ‘They are both (Abu Bakr and Umar) in the Punishment of Allah-azwj’. I said, ‘The sun and the moon are both Punished?’ He-asws said: ‘You have asked about a thing, so be certain of it. The sun and the moon are two Signs from the Signs of Allah-azwj, flowing by His-azwj Command, being obedient to Him-azwj. Their illumination is from the Noor of His-azwj Throne, and their heat is from Hell. When it will be the Qiyamah, both their lights (Noor) would return to the Throne, and their heat would return to the Fire (Hell). So, there would neither happen to be a sun nor a moon, and rather it means those two (Abu Bakr and Umar). Or haven’t the people reported that Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The sun and the moon are two Noors in the Fire?!’ I said, ‘Yes’. He-asws said: ‘Have you not heard the words of the people, ‘So and so and so and so are the sun of this community and its Noor?! So, they are both in the Fire’. I said, ‘Yes’. He-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! It does not mean other than the two’ – up to the end of the Hadeeth as I (Majlisi) would be coming with it’’.[2] Abu Abdullah-asws (6th Imam) says: ‘Words of the Exalted: So which of the Favours of your Lord with you two belie? [55:13] – i.e., which of the two Favours will you deny, (favour) of Muhammad-saww or (favour) of Ali-asws? They-asws are the two Favours Bestowed upon the servants’’.[3] From Abu Al-Hassan Al-Reza-asws regarding His-azwj Words: The Beneficent [55:1] Taught the Quran [55:2]. He-asws said: ‘Allah-azwj Taught Muhammad-saww the Quran’. I said, ‘(What about): Created the human being [55:3] Taught him the clarification [55:4]?’ He-asws said: ‘That is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. He-azwj Taught him-asws the clarification of everything from what the people would need from him-asws.’ I (the narrator) said, ‘(What about): [55:5] The sun and the moon follow a Reckoning?’ He-asws said: ‘They would both be Punished.’ I said, ‘The sun and the moon would be Punished?’ He-asws said: ‘If you ask about something, then perfect it. Surely, the sun and the moon are two Signs from the Signs of Allah, flowing by His-azwj Command, obedient to Him-azwj. Their illumination is from the Light of His-azwj Throne and their heat is from heat of Hell. So when it would be the Day of Judgment, both their lights would return to the Throne, and their heat would return to the Fire. Thus, they would neither happen to be a sun nor a moon. And rather, what is meant are those two (Abu Bakr and Umar), Allah-azwj has Cursed them both. Aren’t the people reporting that Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The sun and the moon are two lights in the Fire?’ I said, ‘Yes’. He-asws said: ‘And have you not heard the words of the people, ‘So and so, and so and so (Abu Bakr and Umar) are two suns of this community and their light?’ So these two are in the Fire, and Allah-azwj has not Meant (anything else) other than these two’ I said, ‘(What about): And the star and the tree both perform Sajdahs [55:6]?’ He-asws (Abu Al-Hassan Al-Reza-asws) said: ‘The star [55:6], is Rasool-Allah-saww, and Allah-azwj has Named him-saww so in other places, so He-azwj Said: (I Swear) by the star when it swoops down [53:1]. And He-azwj Said: And directional signs, and by the star they are being guided [16:16] – so the directional signs are the successors-asws and the star is Rasool-Allah-saww’. I said, ‘both performing Sajdahs [55:6]?’ He-asws said: ‘They are both worshipping (Allah-azwj)’. I said, ‘(What about): And the sky, He Elevated it, and He Placed the Scale [55:7]?’ He-asws said: ‘The sky is Rasool-Allah-saww. Allah-azwj Elevated him-saww to Him-azwj, and the Scale is Amir-Al-Momineen-asws, having Nominated him-asws for His-azwj creatures.’ I said, ‘(What about): Indeed! You must not transgress regarding the Scale [55:8]?’ He-asws said: ‘Do not disobey the Imam-asws.’ I said, ‘(What about): And establish the weight with the fairness [55:9]?’ (He-asws said): ‘Deal with the Imam-asws by justice.’ I said, ‘(What about): ‘and do not be deficient regarding the Scale [55:9]?’ He-asws said: ‘Do not be deficient with the Imam-asws of his-asws rights, and do not oppress him-asws’. And His-azwj Words: And the earth, He Placed it for the creatures [55:10], he-asws said: ‘For the people.’ Therein are fruits, and the palm trees with the sheathed clusters [55:11], he-asws said: ‘Fruit of the palm tree grows in the season, then emerges from it.’ And the Words of the Exalted: And the grain with the husk and the fragrance [55:12], he-asws said: ‘The grain of the wheat, and the barley, and the grain, and the fig, and the basil - what is eaten from it. And His-azwj Words: So which of the Favours of your Lord with you two belie? [55:13], he-asws said: ‘In its apparent it addresses the Jinn and the human beings, and in its hidden (it addresses) that one and that one (Abu Bakr and Umar)’’.[4] I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about Words of Allah-azwj: I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about Words of Allah-azwj: Lord of the two Easts and Lord of the two Wests [55:17], said: ‘The two Easts are Rasool-Allah-saww, and Amir-Al-Momineen-asws, and the two Wests are Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws and in these two examples flows: So which of the Favours of your Lord with you two belie? [55:18] - Rasool-Allah-saww and Amir-Al-Momineen-asws’’.[5] ‘From Abu Abdullah-asws regarding Words of Mighty and Majestic: He Let loose the two seas to meet [55:19]. He-asws said: ‘Ali-asws and (Syeda) Fatima-asws; Between them is a barrier which they do not violate [55:20], he-asws said: ‘Neither does Ali-asws violate upon (Syeda) Fatima-asws nor does (Syeda) Fatima-asws violate upon Ali-asws; There come forth from them the pearls and the rubies [55:22] – Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws’’.[6] Al-Reza-asws: regarding the Side of Allah, [39:56], said: ‘Regarding Wilayah of Ali-asws’’.[7] And Amir Al-Momineen-asws said: ‘I-asws am the Path of Allah-azwj, I-asws am the Side of Allah-azwj’’.[8] And His-azwj Words: And there will remain the Face of your Lord, with the Majesty and the Honour [55:27]. Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘We-asws are the Face of Allah-azwj’’.[9] ‘I heard Al-Reza-asws saying: ‘By Allah-azwj! No two of you would be seen in the Fire! No, by Allah-azwj, and not even one!’ He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘So, where is that from the Book of Allah-azwj?’ He-asws withheld from me for a year. One day I was with him-asws in the Tawaaf when he-asws said to me: ‘O Maysara! Allow me-asws in answering you your such and such question’. He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘So where is it from the Quran?’ He-asws said: ‘In Surah Al-Rahman, and these are the Words of Allah-azwj, Mighty and Majestic: So on that Day, neither a human being nor Jinn from you (Shias) would be Questioned about his sin [55:39]’. Abu Ja’far-asws was asked about Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: We shall soon Deal with you (with) the two weighty things! [55:31]. He-asws said: ‘Book of Allah-azwj and us-asws.
