 6. Muhammad ibn Yahya from Ahmad ibn Muhammad and Muh. ammad ibn al-Husayn, the two together from Muhammad ibn Isma’il ibn Bazi’ from Mansur ibn Yunus that Abu ’I-Jarud said: “I heard Abu Ja’far (p.b.u.h.) say: Aliah, to Whom belong Might and Majesty, made five things incumbent on (his) servants: they accepted four and rejected one.’ I said: ’May I be made your ransom, name them for me.’ He said: ’Prayer; but the people did not understand how to pray, then Jibril (pb.uh.) came down and said: “O Muhammad, inform them of the timings of their prayers.” Then zakat was sent down, and He said: “O Muhammad, inform them of their zakit as you have informed them of their prayer.” Then fasting was sent down, and, when the day of ’Ashura came, the Messenger of Allah (pb.uh.ah.p.) sent a message to the villages around it (Medina), and they fasted on that day. Then (the fasting) of the month of Ramadan, between (the months of ) Sha’ban and Shawwal, was sent down. Then hajj was sent down, and Jibril (p.b.uh.) came down and said:”Inform them of their hajj as you informed them of their prayer, their Rabat and their fasting.” Then the Mastership was sent down, and when this came to him on Friday at ’Arafah (or ’Arafat, the gathering place for the pilgrims on the 9th of Dhu ’l-Hijjah, near Mecca), Allah, to Whom belong Might and Majesty, sent down: Today I have completed your religion for you, and I have perfected My blessing upon you (al-Ma’idah,5:3). The completion of the religion was through the Mastership of Ali ibn Abu Talib (p.b.uh.). Then the Messenger of Allah (pb.uh.ah.p.) said together with this (verse): “My community has recently experienced the jahiliyyah (the period of ignorance before Islam), and whenever I inform them of this concerning my cousin, one speaker will say this and another will say that. I say (this) to myself without my tongue speaking out: a decisive obligation came to me from Allah, to Whom belong Might and Majesty, with finality; He threatened me that if I did not make (this) reach (the people), He would punish me.” Then was sent down: O Messenger, deliver that which has been sent down to thee from thy Lord; for if thou cost not, thou wilt not have delivered His Message. Allah will protect thee from men. Allah guides not the people of the unbelievers (al-Matidah, S :67). Then the Messenger of Allah (p.b.uh.a.h.p.) took the hand of Ali (pb.uh.) and said: “O people, there was no prophet among the prophets who were before me to whom Allah did not grant a span of life, then tie called him and he answered Him. The time is now near when I shall be called and I will answer. I shall be questioned and you will be questioned, and what will you say?” They said: “We bear witness that you have delivered (what you had to deliver) and advised sincerely, and conveyed what you had. May Allah reward you with the best of the rewards of those who were messengers.” He said: “O Allah, I call you to witness”—three times —then he said: “O assembly of believers, that this man is your Master (wall) after me. Let the one among you who witnesses this convey (what he has seen) to the one who is absent.” ’ Abu Ja’far (p.b.u.h.) said: ’By Allah, (Ali—p.b.u.h.) was the one trusted by Allah over His creation, His unseen (commands), and His religion which He Himself accepted (for His creatures). Then came to the Messenger of Allah (p.b.uh.ah.p.) that which came (his death), and he called Ali and said: “O Ali, I wish to entrust you with what Allah has entrusted me both of His unseen (commands) and of knowledge of llim, and of His creation and His religion which He Himself accepted (for ITis creatures).”’ (Abu Ja’far—p.b.u.h.—said:) ’By Allah, O Ziyad, (ibn Mundhir Abu ’I-Jarud), he (the Prophet—p.b.u.h.a.h.p.) has not given any share in this to anyone. Then came to Ali (p.b.u.h.) that which came, and he called his sons, and they were twelve males. lie said to them: “O my sons,Allah, to whom belong Might and Majesty, willed that He bring about in me one of the particularities (He established) with Ya’qub (see al-Baqarah, 2:132 - 133): and Ya’qub called his sons, and they were twelve males. He informed them of the one in authority among them. Indeed, I shall inform you of the one in authority among you. They are these two sons of the Messenger of Allah ( p.b.u.h.a.h.p. ), al-Hassan and al-Husayn (pb.u.t.). Listen to them, and obey and support them. I entrust them with what the Messenger of Allah (p.b.u.h. a.h.p.) entrusted me of what Allah entrusted him of His creation and His unseen (commands) and His religion, which He Himself accepted (for Ills creatures).” Allah made obligatory for them through Ali (p.b. u h.) what he made obligatory for Ali through the Messenger of Allah (pb.uh.ah.p.). Neither of them had any excellence over the one in authority over him except on account of his age. When al-Hassan (p.b. u.h.) was present, al-Husayn (pb.u.h.) said nothing in a session, until (al-Hassan—pb.uh.) rose (to leave).Then came to al-Hassan (p.b.u.h.) what came to him, and he handed it (the Imamite) to al-Husayn. Then came to al-I.lusayn (pb.uh.) what came to him, and he called his eldest daughter, Fatimah hint al-Husayn (pb.uh.) and handed over to her a rolled up writing and an open testament (for Ali ibn al-Husayn—p.b.u.h.). Ali ibn al-Husayn (pb.uh.) was ill with a gastric complaint which (everyone) thought he would die of, so Fatimah handed the writing to Ali ibn al-Husayn (p.b.uh.). Thereafter, by Allah, this writing has come down to us.’ “ *al-Husayn ibn Muhammad from MuAliah ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn Jumhur from Muhammad ibn Isma’il ibn Bazi’ from Mansur ibn Yunus from Abu ’I-Jarud from Abu Ja’far (pb.u.h.), the same tradition.
