٧ - حدثنا محمد بن القاسم، قال: حدثنا يوسف بن محمد بن زياد وعلي ابن محمد بن يسار، عن أبو يهما، عن الحسن بن علي بن محمد بن علي بن موسى بن جعفر بن محمد بن علي بن الحسين بن علي بن أبي طالب (عليهم السلام)، عن أبيه، عن آبائه (عليهم السلام)، قال: قال رسول الله (صلى الله الله عليه وآله) لبعض أصحابه ذات يوم: يا عبد الله، أحبب في الله وأبغض في الله، ووال في الله، وعاد في الله، فإنه لا تنال ولاية الله إلا بذلك، ولا يجد رجل طعم الايمان وإن كثرت صلاته وصيامه حتى يكون كذلك، وقد صارت مؤاخاة الناس يومكم هذا أكثرها في الدنيا، عليها يتوادون، وعليها يتباغضون، وذلك لا يغني عنهم من الله شيئا. فقال له: وكيف لي أن أعلم أني قد واليت وعاديت في الله عز وجل، فمن ولي الله عز وجل حتى أو إليه، ومن عدوه حتى أعاديه؟ فأشار له رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) إلى علي (عليه السلام)، وقال: أترى هذا؟ فقال: بلى. قال: ولي هذا ولي الله فواله، وعدو هذا عدو الله فعاده، وال ولي هذا ولو أنه قاتل أبيك وولدك، وعاد عدو هذا ولو أنه  أبوك وولدك (١).
Muhammad b. al-Qasim narrated to us. He said: Yusuf b. Muhammad b. Ziyad and `Ali b. Muhammad b. Yasar narrated to us from their fathers from al-Hasan b. `Ali b. Muhammad b. `Ali b. Musa b. Ja`far b. Muhammad b. `Ali b. al-Husayn b. `Ali b. Abi Talib  from his father from his forefathers . He said: The Messenger of Allah (s) said to one of his companions that day: O `Abdullah! Love in the way of Allah, hate in the way of Allah, befriend in the way of Allah, and oppose in the way of Allah, for the wilaya of Allah is only achieved through this. A man cannot taste faith, even if he increases his prayer and his fasting, until he does all this. In this day and age, the people are brotherly over this world – they love one another over it, and they hate one another over it; yet it will not make them free of the need for Allah. So, it was said to him: How will I know that I have befriended and opposed in the way of Allah? Who is the friend of Allah, so that I may befriend him; and who is His enemy, so that I may oppose him? So, the Messenger of Allah (s) pointed to `Ali  for him and said: Do you see this? So, he said: Of course. He said: His friend is the friend of Allah, so befriend him. His enemy is the enemy of Allah, so oppose him. Befriend his friend, even if he killed your father and your son; and oppose his enemy, even if he is your father or your son.
