The Keepers of Allah (s.w.t.)'s Knowledge


A man came to Mohammad bin Ali Zainul Abedeen(as) and said: 
Narrate a hadith about your virtues for me that is specific to you [Ahlulbayt(as)]

Mohammad bin Ali(as) replied: 

We are the keepers of the knowledge of Allah. We are the heirs of the revelation of Allah. We are the ones who carry the book of Allah. 

Obeying us is obligatory, loving us if faith and hating us is hypocrisy. Those who love us will go to Paradise and those who hate us will go to Hell. 

I swear to the Lord of the Kaaba that we are created from a pure clay that was not used for the creation of any other being. And those who love us were created from a clay that is inferior (in quality) to our clay. 

So on the day of judgement, the inferior clay will join the superior clay. 

(On that day) where do you think Allah will lead the Prophet(saww)? And where do you think the Prophet(saww) will lead his sons? And where do you think Prophets(saww) sons will lead their Shia and their lovers? They will all go to the Paradise of the Lord of the Worlds.
