47. “O people! Believe in God and believe in His Messenger and in the Glorious
[Book] which has been sent down with him, (Haggling: 64/8), before We blot out
the faces and turn them backwards; or curse them as We cursed the People of the
Sabbath – [The Jews who were to act wittingly against God] (The Woman: 4/47).
I swear to God that the true sense of this Verse is referred to a group of my
companions whose names I know, but it is pity, I have been asked not to reveal
their identity. Thus, behave you according to your hearts’ pleasure – whatever
you feel: of love or hatred towards Ali.
48. O people! The Light, by God
Almighty, is put inside me, and then inside Ali, and then inside his lineage,
until Mahdi, the Upright, who shall demand the Divine Right as well our right.
For God has put us as an irrefutable Proof, before those who are careless, and
disprove us; who are throughout the world as: traitors, usurpers, sinners,
tyrants, and oppressors!
49. O people! I announce that I am God’s Messenger and before me, there were
also other messengers. So, what if I should pass away, or be killed? Will you
return backwards – turn on your heels? For one who turns backward, will not harm
God, and God will reward those who are thankful and patient! (The Family of
Imran: 3/144).
50. And know that indeed Ali, and after him my progeny, all
from his linage, are perfect and deserve being praised.
51. O people! Do stop, and do not impress me the Islam you have embraced for
your own, (The Chambers: 49/17), such action will indeed damage all your acts;
and Almighty God will be annoyed with you. Then He will involve you in the Flame
of Fire and the melted bronze, (The Mercy giving: 55/35), that is kept in store
for you. For indeed God is on the look-out for you! (The Daybreak: 89/14).
52.
O people! Soon after me, there will come to you some leaders, who will call you
enter the Fire, then, on that Day of Judgement, there is no assistant to rise
for their aid! (The Narration: 28/41).
53. O people! Know that both God and I detest such crowd.
54. O people! These
men along with their disciples, and their companions and their followers, will
be thrown in the lowest part of the Fire; see how horrible is the place of such
proud! (The Bees: 16/29).
55. Know that they are the followers of ‘Manu’, thus, now each of you
should look at his own manu.
56. O people! Now, I leave to you, [as
documentation], the issue of the Leadership, and the succession, and its
perpetuation in my lineage until the Day of Resurrection; I have passed on to
you what I have been said to disclose, so that it becomes as a clear argument
for those who are present and those who are absent; for those-who are here or
not here-and those who are born, or even not born. Thus, those present today,
should make this news known to those who are absent, that is, fathers [should
tell it to] their sons, until the Day the Resurrection rises!
57. But soon after I am gone, there will be some who shall unfairly take the
Leadership by force, then replace it with Monarchy. May God damn the usurpers
and those who take [the trusteeships] by force, but, of course, when, at that
moment, God unleashes the infernal Fire, and melted bronze on you, the jinn and
Mankind, you will not have a helper to be kind to you! (The Mercy giving; 55 /
31-35).
58. O people! God will not leave you on your own, except He has
separated the pure from the impure; and God will not let you know of the
‘Unseen’, (The Family of Imran: 3/179).
59. O people! There shall remain not a single land, which has not been destroyed
by God’s Will before the coming of the Resurrection Day, it is for the
abjurations and the denials that their inhabitants will have pronounced, and
their places will be under the government of his holiness Mahdi, and God
Almighty fulfills His Promise!
60. O people! Before your era, the most people
of the older times went astray, and it was God’s will to destroy them all, and
again it will be He Who will eliminate the on-coming generations. God Almighty,
in His Book, has stated: ‘Did We not destroy the despots of the old? So shall We
do with the later generations after them. Thus We deal with the men of errors.
Ah! Woe that Day, to the Rejecters!’” (The Emissaries: 77/19).
61. “O people! God has stated me His exemption and restriction of certain
things, and I also, by Divine Command, have ordained Ali the knowledge of it,
and forbidden him [some things]. And [thus] the knowledge of ordaining and
forbidding, remains with him; therefore, listen to his commands, so that to be
safe, and obey him so as you may get on the course. Accept his Warning, so that
to find the right direction, and walk on towards his ultimate destination!
[Thus, beware] so as not to draw away from His Path into the diverted paths!”
(Livestock: 6/153).
