 5. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn Jaumhur from Faddala ibn Ayyub from Mu‘awiya ibn Wahab from Dhurayh who has said the following. “I asked abu ‘Abdallah  about the Imams after the Holy Prophet (s.a.).” The Imam  said, “Amir al-Mu’minin (Ali)  was the Imam. Then al-Hassan  was the Imam. Then al-Husayn  was the Imam. Then Ali ibn Al-Husayn  was the Imam. Then Muhammad ibn Ali  was the Imam. One who would deny this would be as if he has denied the existence of Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, and the truthfulness of Prophet Muhammad (s.a).” I asked, “may Allah take my soul in service for your cause, are you then the Imam? I repeated it three times.” The Imam said, “I only said it to you so that you will be of the witnesses before Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, on His earth.”
