Hadith 169
۞
1. We were told by Muhammed bin Umar, the Keeper, in the City of Peace, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Qasim bin Zakariya, Abu Abdillah, and Hussain bin Ali al-Salouli, that they both said: We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan al-Salouli, that he said: We were told by Saleh bin Abi’l-Aswad, from Abu’l-Mudaffar al-Madeeni, from Salam al-Ju’fi, from Abu Ja’far al-Baqir, peace be upon him, from Abu Barda, from the Prophet, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, that he said
Indeed, Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He, made a covenant to me with regards to Ali. I said: O Lord, clarify it to me. He said: Listen. I said: I have listened. He said: Indeed, Ali is the Banner of Guidance, the Imam of My Allies and the Light of those who obey Me, and he is the Word that I have bound upon the Godfearing; those who love him have loved Me, and those who obey him have obeyed Me.
حدثنا محمد بن عمر الحافظ بمدينة السلام، قال: حدثنا محمد بن القاسم بن ، زكريا أبو عبد الله، والحسين بن علي السلولي، قالا: حدثنا محمد بن الحسن السلولي، قال: حدثنا صالح بن أبي الأسود، عن أبي المظفر المديني عن سلام الجعفي، عن أبي جعفر الباقر عليه السلام، عن أبي بردة، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وآله قال
إن الله عز وجل عهد إلي في علي عهدا. قلت يا رب بينه لي، قال: استمع ، قلت قد سمعت، قال: إن عليا راية الهدى، وإمام أوليائي ونور من أطاعني، وهو الكلمة التي ألزمتها المتقين ، من أحبه أحبني، ومن أطاعه أطاعني.
