A Light That Will Lead

W.P.S: Mohammad bin Musa bin MotawakklU from Mohammad bin Yahya Al-Attar, from Mohammad bin Ahmad Al-Ashaari, from Salamah bin Khattab, from Husain bin Saif Al-Azdi, from Is’haaq bin Ibrahim, from Abdullah bin Sabah, from AbiBaseer, from Jaafar bin Mohammad Al-Sadiq (a.s.), who said:

On the Day of Judgement, when Allah  (s.w.t.) gathers the entire creation from the first to the last in one desert, an extreme darkness will overcome them.

The crowd will scream, “O Allah!  (s.w.t.) Remove this darkness from us!”

Then a group of people will start walking with a light that will lead the entire desert. So the crowd will say, “They are Prophets.” But Allah (s.w.t.)  will call out to the crowd, “They are not Prophets.”

The crowd will say, “They are angels.”But Allah (s.w.t.)  will call out to the crowd, “They are not angels.”

The crowd will say, “They are martyrs.” But Allah  (s.w.t.) will call out to the crowd, “They are not martyrs.”

So the crowd will ask, “Then who are they?”

Allah  (s.w.t.) will call out to them, “O My creation! Ask this group who they are.” So the crowd will ask this group, “Who are you?”

This group will reply, “We are the progeny of Ali (a.s.). We are the progeny of the Prophetic. We are sons of Ali, the Wali of Allah (s.w.t.) . We are the chosen ones whom Allah (s.w.t.)  honours. We are the assured and safe ones.”

Then Allah (s.w.t.) will call out to this group, “Intercede for those who loved you, for your friends, and for your Shia.”

So this group will intercede and their intercession will be accepted.
