Siraat Al Mostaqeem


The pious scholar Abu Mohammad Hasan bin Husain narrated from Mohammad bin Hasan, from Hasan bin Husain bin Ali, from his uncle the scholar Abi Jaafar Mohammad bin Ali bin Babeweyh, from Ahmad bin Hasan Al-Qattan, from Abdul Rahman bin Abi Hatam, from Harun bin Is’haaq Al-Hamdaani, from Ubaidah bin Sulaymaan, from Kamel bin Alaa’, from Habib bin Abi Thabet, from Saeed bin Jubayr, from Ibn Abbas, who said:

The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.a.) : said to Ali bin Abi Taleb (a.s.):

O Ali (as) ! You are the owner of my Pool and you are the owner of my flag. You are the one who fulfills my promises. You are the love of my heart. You are the heir of my knowledge and the heir of all of the other prophets.

You are Allah’s (s.w.t.) trustworthy slave on His earth, you are Allah’s (s.w.t.) decisive argument on His creation, you are the pillar of faith, you are the light in darkness, you are the lighthouse of guidance, and you are the flag that Allah (s.w.t.) raised for the world.

Those who follow you will survive, and those who do not will perish.

You are the clear path and you are the SIRAAT AL-MOSTAQEEM (the straight path).

You are the leader of the believers. You are the master of whomsoever I am his master, and I am the master of all of the believers.

No one loves you except those who were conceived legitimately, and no one hates you but those who were conceived illegitimately.

Every time I went to Me’raaj, (The minimum number of times reported for ascents to Me’raaj is two and the maximum reported Is one hundred and twenty. For more information, refer to Bihar Al-Anwar Volume J8 pages 306-307 and 387.)  Allah (s.w.t.) told me to convey His Salaam to you and to tell you that you are the Imam of His friends and the light of those who obey Him.
O Ali!(as) I congratulate you for this honour.

(Bihar Al-Anwar 40:53 Amaali of Sadouq 252.)
