The Honor of the Shia

Here is a SaHeeH (Authentic) hadeeth that discusses the great honor the Shī`ahs are held at, and what are the characteristics of the shī`ahs.

أبي رحمه الله قال حدثني عبد الله بن جعفر عن أحمد بن محمد عن ابن أبي نجران قال سمعت أبا الحسن ع يقول من عادى شيعتنا فقد عادانا و من والاهم فقد والانا لأنهم منا خلقوا من طينتنا من أحبهم فهو منا و من أبغضهم فليس منا شيعتنا ينظرون بنور الله و يتقلبون في رحمة الله و يفوزون بكرامة الله ما من أحد من شيعتنا يمرض إلا مرضنا لمرضه و لا اغتم إلا اغتممنا لغمه و لا يفرح إلا فرحنا لفرحه و لا يغيب عنا أحد من شيعتنا أين كان في شرق الأرض أو غربها و من ترك من شيعتنا دينا فهو علينا و من ترك منهم مالا فهو لورثته
From Ibn Abī Najrān said, I heard Abā al-Hasan (عليه السلام) and he said: “Whoever hates our shī`ahs, has certainly hated us, and whoever follows them, has certainly followed us, because they are from us, and they are created from our clay. Whoever loves them has loved us, and whoever hates them is not from us. Our Shī`ahs see through the nūr (light) of Allāh, and they turn (move) in the mercy of Allāh, and triumph in the honor of Allāh. No one from our shī`ahs becomes ill except that we become ill due to his illness, they do not become sad, except that we are sad for his sadness. And they are not happy except that we are happy for his happiness, and nothing is concealed from us that is (concealed) from one of our shī`ahs, whether it is in the east or the west of the earth. And the debt that is left from our shī`ahs is our debt, and whoever leaves it from them the fortune is left to his heir.


شيعتنا الذين يقيمون الصلاة و يؤتون الزكاة و يحجون البيت الحرام و يصومون شهر رمضان و يوالون أهل البيت و يتبرءون من أعدائهم [من أعدائنا] أولئك أهل الإيمان و التقى و أهل الورع و التقوى و من رد عليهم فقد رد على الله و من طعن عليهم فقد طعن على الله لأنهم عباد الله حقا و أولياؤه صدقا و الله إن أحدهم ليشفع في مثل ربيعة و مضر فيشفعه الله تعالى فيهم لكرامته على الله عز و جل
Our shī`ahs are those who establish prayer, give zakāh, go on pilgrimage to Bayt al-Harām, fast in the month of RamaDān, follow the Ahl al-Bayt (عليهم السلام) and do bara’a from their (عليهم السلام) enemies [from our enemies], they are the people of Imān (faith), taqwa, the people of wara`a (piety) and taqwa. And whoever rejects them has certainly rejected Allaah, and whoever disputes with them, has certainly disputed with Allaah, because they are the true slaves of Allaah, and the genuine patrons of Allaah. By Allaah, Verily, each one of them will be able to intercede for as many (people as) Rabee`ah (a tribe) and MuDar (a tribe), so Allaah (accepts) the intercession for them due to his honor with/to Allaah (عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ)

Three Types of Dreams

Here is a Hasan (Good) hadīth from Imām al-Sādiq (عليه السلام) where it tells us the three types of dreams. Earlier I made a post on what to do if you were to see a bad dream (click here).

From Sa`d bn Abī Khalaf from Abī `Abd Allāh (عليه السلام) said: “Dreams are of three types: (1) Good news from Allāh to the mu’minīn. (2) Warnings from al-ShayTān. (3) Confused/Muddled dreams”

Man Can Be Better Than Angels

Here is a SaHīH (Authentic) hadeeth from Imām al-Sādiq where he says that Imām `Alī (عليه السلام) has given us a formula on how to become better than the angels. Of course, this is much harder than it sounds.

(Taken from my personal copy of al-Sadūq’s `ilal al-Sharā’i` (Beirut: Mu’assasah al-`Alaa, 2nd Edition, 1428/2007, pg. 13)

باب العلة التي من أجلها صار في الناس من هو خير من الملائكة و صار فيهم من هو شر من البهائم
Chapter on the reason which men become from those greater than angels, and become from those who are worst than beasts

أبي رحمه الله قال حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى عن علي بن الحكم عن عبد الله بن سنان قال سألت أبا عبد الله جعفر بن محمد الصادق ع فقلت الملائكة أفضل أم بنو آدم فقال قال أمير المؤمنين علي بن أبي طالب ع إن الله عز و جل ركب في الملائكة عقلا بلا شهوة و ركب في البهائم شهوة بلا عقل و ركب في بني آدم كليهما فمن غلب عقله شهوته‏ فهو خير من الملائكة و من غلبت شهوته عقله فهو شر من البهائم

From `Abd Allāh bin Sinān said, I asked Abā `Abd Allāh, Ja`far bin Muhammad al-Sādiq (عليه السلام), I (narrator) said: “Are the angels better (afDal) or the children of Adam? So he (عليه السلام) said that Amīr al-Mu’minīn, `Alī bin Abī al-Tālib (عليه السلام) said: “Verily, Allāh (عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ) has composed in angels `aql (intellect) and no desire, and he composed in beasts desire and no intellect, and he composed in the children of Adam both (`aql and desire). So whoever (lets) `aql overcome his desires, he will be than the angels, and whoever (lets) his desires overcome his `aql, he is will be worse than the beasts”

Sutrah for Salat

Here is a blog post by IslamicSalvation, which can be found here:

باب ما يستتر به المصلي ممن يمر بين يديه
Chapter on what one screens himself with from what passes in front of him (while praying)


محمد بن يحيى، عن أحمد بن محمد، عن الحسن بن محبوب، عن معاوية بن وهب عن أبي عبدالله (عليه السلام) قال: كان رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) يجعل العنزة بين يديه إذا صلى صحيح  
1. Muhammad bin Yahya from Ahmad bin Muhammad from Hasan bin Mahbub from Muawiyah bin Wahb from Abi Abdillah عليه السلام who said : the messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وآله used to place a sharp stick in front of himself when he used to pray. (Sahih)


محمد بن يحيى، عن أحمد بن محمد، عن عثمان بن عيسى، عن ابن مسكان، عن ابن أبي يعفور قال: سألت أبا عبدالله (عليه السلام) عن الرجل هل يقطع صلاته شئ مما يمر بين يديه؟ فقال: لا يقطع صلاة المؤمن شئ ولكن ادرؤوا ما استطعتم موثق
2. Muhammad bin Yahya from Ahmad bin Muhammad from Uthman bin Isa from Ibn Muskan from Ibn Abi Yafur who said : I asked Aba Abdillah عليه السلام about a man - whether it breaks his Salat - whatever passes in front of him (from) anything? He said : nothing whatsoever breaks the Salat of a Mu’min, but repel this however much you can. (Muwathaq due to Uthman bin Isa)


محمد بن يحيى، عن أحمد بن محمد، عن عثمان بن عيسى، عن ابن مسكان، عن أبي بصير، عن أبي عبدالله (عليه السلام) قال: لا يقطع الصلاة شئ لا كلب ولا حمار ولا امرأة ولكن استتروا بشئ فإن كان بين يديك قدر ذراع رافعا من الارض فقد استترت موثق
3. Muhammad bin Yahya from Ahmad bin Muhammad from Uthman bin Isa from Ibn Muskan from Abi Basir from Abi Abdillah  عليه السلام who said : nothing breaks the Salat, not (the passing of) the dog, nor the donkey, nor a woman, but take up a barrier (between yourself and the sorroundings), so if there is in front of you something with the elevation from the ground of about a Dhirā' - then you have protected yourself (taken it up as a Sutra).

When to Reject Hadith?

Here is a SaHīH (Authentic) hadīth from Imām al-RiDā (عليه السلام) having a discussion with Abū Qurrah (Mūsa bin Tāriq al-Yamānī (d. 220 AH)). He asks Imām al-RiDā (عليه السلام) if he rejects narrations, and he (عليه السلام) said, he does if it contradicts the Qur’ān. It is a fairly lengthy hadīth, so I will just quote an excerpt.

فَقَالَ أَبُو قُرَّةَ فَتُكَذِّبُ بِالرِّوَايَاتِ فَقَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ع إِذَا كَانَتِ الرِّوَايَاتُ مُخَالِفَةً لِلْقُرْآنِ كَذَّبْتُهَا
So Aboo Qurrah said: “So do you reject narrations?” So Abū al-Hasan (عليه السلام) said: “If the narrations contradict the Qur’ān, reject it.”

2. Muhammad bin Ismail from Fadhl bin Shadhan AND Ali bin Ibrahim from his father (Ibrahim bin Hashim) all togethor from Hammad bin Isa from Hariz (bin Abdallah) from Zurara (bin A'yan) from one of the two عليه السلام, said (Zurara) : I said to Him : a man does not know wether he has prayed one or two (Rakaat)? He said : (he is to) repeat, I (Zurara) said to Him : a man does not know wether he has prayed two or three (Rakaat)? so He said : if doubt enters him after he has entered into the third (Rakaat), he continues with the third and prays the next (Rakaat) and there is nothing upon him and he makes the Salaam. I (Zurara) said : what if he does not know wether he is in the second or the fourth (Rakaat)? He said : he makes the Salaam, then he stands and prays two Rakaat and makes the Salaam (again), and there is nothing (further) upon him. (Hasan like Sahih due to Ibrahim bin Hashim and Muhammad bin Ismail)



محمد بن يحيى، عن أحمد بن محمد، عن الحسن بن علي الوشاء، والحسين بن محمد، عن معلى بن محمد، عن الحسن بن علي الوشاء قال: قال لي: أبوالحسن الرضا (عليه السلام): الاعادة في الركعتين الاولتين والسهو في الركعتين الاخيرتين صحيح

The Khutbah of the Imams




محمد بن يحيى، عن أحمد بن محمد، عن الحسين بن سعيد، عن النضر بن سويد، عن يحيى الحلبي، عن بريد بن معاوية، عن محمد بن مسلم، عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام) في خطبة يوم الجمعة الخطبة الاولى:
الحمد لله نحمده ونستعينه ونستغفره ونستهديه ونعوذ بالله من شرور أنفسنا ومن سيئات أعمالنا، من يهدي الله فلا مضل له ومن يضلل فلا هادي له.
وأشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له وأشهد أن محمدا عبده ورسوله انتجبه لولايته واختصه برسالته وأكرمه بالنبوة، أمينا على غيبه ورحمة للعالمين وصلى الله على محمد وآله (عليهم السلام).
اوصيكم عباد الله بتقوى الله واخوفكم من عقابه فإن الله ينجي من اتقاه بمفازتهم لايمسهم السوء ولا هم يحزنون ويكرم من خافه يقيهم شر ما خافوا ويلقيهم نضرة وسرورا وارغبكم في كرامة الله الدائمة واخوفكم عقابه الذي لا انقطاع له ولا نجاة لمن استوجبه فلا تعزنكم الدنيا ولا تركنوا إليها فإنها دار غرور، كتب الله عليها وعلى أهلها الفناء فتزودوا منها الذي أكرمكم الله به من التقوى والعمل الصالح فإنه لا يصل إلى الله من إعمال العباد إلا ما خلص منها ولا يتقبل الله إلا من المتقين وقد أخبركم الله عن منازل من آمن وعمل صالحا وعن منازل من كفر وعمل في غير سبيله وقال: " ذلك يوم مجموع له الناس وذلك يوم مشهود * وما نؤخره إلا لاجل معدود * يوم يأتي لا تكلم نفس إلا بإذنه فمنهم شقي وسعيد * فأما الذين شقوا ففي النار لهم فيها زفير وشهيق خالدين فيها ما دامت السموات والارض إلا ما شاء ربك إن ربك فعال لما يريد وأما الذين سعدوا ففي الجنة خالدين فيها مادامت السموات والارض إلا ما شاء ربك عطاء غير مجذوذ " نسأل الله الذي جمعنا لهذا الجمع أن يبارك لنا في يومنا هذا وأن يرحمنا جميعا إنه على كل شئ قدير إن كتاب الله أصدق الحديث وأحسن القصص وقال الله عزوجل: " وإذا قرئ القرآن فاستمعوا له وأنصتوا لعلكم ترحمون " فاسمعوا طاعة [ا] لله
وأنصتوا ابتغاء رحمته.
8. Muhammad bin Yahya from Ahmad bin Muhammad from Husayn bin Said from Nadhr bin Suwayd from Yahya al-Halabiy from Burayd bin Muawiya from Muhammad bin Muslim from Abi Ja’far عليه السلام, in the Khutbah of the day of Friday.

The First Khutbah:

All praise is due to Allah, we praise Him, and seek from His aid, and His forgiveness, and His guidance. And we seek refuge in Allah from the impurity that is in ourselves and that which results from our evil actions. Whomever Allah guides, then he cannot go astray.
And whomever He lets go astray, cannot then be guided.

And I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, He is the One without a partner;
and I bear witness that Muhammad is his slave and messenger, He chose him for his guardianship, and distinguished him with His message, and blessed him with the prophethood; (he was) a trustee of His veiled (unseen matters), and a mercy unto the worlds – the blessings of Allah upon him - Muhammad and his family عليهم السلام

I enjoin unto you, O slaves of Allah, to have Taqwa of Allah, and I frighten you with his punishment.
 ‘For Allah will deliver those who have Taqwa to their place of salvation; no evil shall touch them, nor shall they grieve’ (39:61).
He will honor those who had feared Him and thus save them from what they had feared,
and will consequently place them in comfort and delight.

And I entice you to (have hope in) the constant generosity of Allah,
and (yet) I frighten you with His punishment, which is not to be cut off (has no end),
and there will be no escape from it for the one He has made it compulsory upon.

So the world should not beguile you,
and do not extend yourself towards it,
for it is an abode of false pride,
Allah decrees for it and its people destruction,
so adorn (take unto) yourselves from it - what Allah grants you thereby,
from his Taqwa, and the performance of good actions,
for it does not reach Him from the actions of the slave - except that which has been done sincerely for Him – And it is not accepted except from the Muttaqin.

And Allah has already informed you about the stations of those who believe and do righteous deeds,
and the stations of those who disbelieve and do actions in other than His path (or for his sake).

And He said: ‘That is a Day for which the people will be collected,
and that is a Day [which will be] witnessed.
And We do not delay it except for a limited term.
The Day it comes no soul will speak except by His permission.
And among them will be the wretched and the prosperous.
As for those who were wretched, they will be in the Fire.
For them therein is [violent] exhaling and inhaling.
[They will be] abiding therein as long as the heavens and the earth endure,
except what your Lord should will.
Indeed, your Lord is an effecter of what He intends’. (11:103-107)

‘And as for those who were prosperous,
they will be in Paradise,
abiding therein as long as the heavens and the earth endure,
except what your Lord should will - a bestowal uninterrupted’. (11:108)

We ask Allah, who has gathered us for this gathering, that He bless us on this day of ours, and have mercy on all of us, for He has power over all things.

Verily the book of Allah has the truest of narrations and the best of narratives,
And Allah said: ‘When the Qur'an is read, listen to it with attention, and hold your peace: that ye may receive Mercy’. (7:204)

So obey Allah and listen (hear Him in this) in order to receive His mercy.

ثم اقرأ سورة من القرآن وادع ربك وصل على النبي (ص) وادع للمؤمنين والمؤمنات.
ثم تجلس قدر ما تمكن هنيهة ثم تقوم فتقول:
[Narrator’s words] Then you recite a Surah from the Qur'an, and make a Dua to your Lord, and send salutations upon the Prophet, and make a Dua for the believing men and women,
Then you sit for a moment (short period of time), then you stand up and say:

الحمد لله نحمده ونستعينه ونستغفره ونستهديه ونؤمن به ونتوكل عليه ونعوذ بالله من شرور أنفسنا ومن سيئات أعمالنا، من يهدي الله فلا مضل له ومن يضلل فلا هادي له.
وأشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له وأشهد أن محمدا عبده ورسوله أرسله بالهدى ودين الحق ليظهره على الدين كله ولو كره المشركون وجعله رحمة للعالمين بشيرا ونذيرا وداعيا إلى الله بإذنه وسراجا منيرا من يطع الله ورسوله فقد رشد ومن يعصهما فقد غوى.
اوصيكم عباد الله بتقوى الله الذي ينفع بطاعته من أطاعه والذي يضر بمعصيته من عصاه، الذي إليه معادكم وعليه حسابكم فإن التقوى وصية الله فيكم وفي الذين من قبلكم قال الله عزوجل: " ولقد وصينا الذين اوتوا الكتاب من قبلكم وإياكم أن اتقوا الله وأن تكفروا فإن لله ما في السموات وما في الارض وكان الله غنيا حميدا " انتفعوا بموعظة الله وألزموا كتابه فإنه أبلغ الموعظة وخير الامور في المعاد عاقبة ولقد اتخذ الله الحجة فلا يهلك من هلك إلا عن بينة ولا يحيى من حي إلا عن بينة وقد بلغ رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) الذي ارسل به فألزموا وصيته وما ترك فيكم من بعده من الثقلين كتاب الله وأهل بيته اللذين لا يضل من تمسك بهما ولا يهتدي من تركهما، اللهم صل على محمد عبدك ورسولك سيد المرسلين وإمام المتقين ورسول رب العالمين - ثم تقول -: اللهم صل على أمير المؤمنين ووصي رسول رب العالمين - ثم تسمي الائمة حتى تنتهي إلى صاحبك، ثم تقول -: افتح له فتحا يسيرا وانصره نصرا عزيزا، اللهم أظهر به دينك وسنة نبيك حتى لا يستخفي بشئ من الحق مخافة أحد من الخلق اللهم إنا نرغب إليك في دولة كريمة تعز بها الاسلام وأهله وتذل بها النفاق وأهله وتجعلنا فيها من الدعاة إلى طاعتك والقادة في سبيلك وترزقنا بها كرامة الدنيا والآخرة اللهم ما حملتنا من الحق فعرفناه وما قصرنا عنه فعلمناه
ثم يدعو الله على عدوه ويسأل لنفسه وأصحابه ثم يرفعون أيديهم فيسألون الله حوائجهم كلها حتى إذا فرغ من ذلك قال: اللهم استجب لنا - ويكون آخر كلامه أن يقول -: إن الله يأمر بالعدل والاحسان وإيتاء ذي القربى وينهى عن الفحشاء والمنكر والبغي يعظكم لعلكم تذكرون. - ثم يقول -: اللهم اجعلنا ممن تذكر فتنفعه الذكرى
ثم ينزل  صحيح
"All praise is due to Allah, we praise Him, and seek from His aid, and His forgiveness, and His guidance, and we believe in Him, and rely upon Him. And we seek refuge in Allah from the impurity that is in ourselves and that which results from our evil actions. Whomever Allah guides, then he cannot go astray. And whomever He lets go astray, cannot then be guided.

And I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, He is the One without a partner;
and I bear witness that Muhammad is his slave and messenger,
He sent him with the guidance, and the Deen of truth, so that it may rise above over all other creeds, even though the Mushrikeen may hate that.
And He sent him as a mercy unto the worlds, and a bringer of glad tidings, and a warner, and a caller to Allah by His permission, and an illuminating lamp.

He who obeys Allah and His Prophet, it is the guidance. And he who disobeys,
it is (equal to) going astray.

I enjoin unto you,
O slaves of Allah, to have Taqwa of Allah –
(the One) who profits him who obeys - for his obedience,
And who disadvantages him who disobeys - due to his disobedience,
The one to whom is your return,
And upon Him is your account,

For having Taqwa is the will of Allah upon you, and those before you,
For Allah said: And We have instructed those who were given the Scripture before you and yourselves to have Taqwa of Allah, But if you disbelieve - then to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And ever is Allah Free of need and Praiseworthy.
(4:131)

Take upon yourself the exhortations of Allah and hold onto His book,
for it contains the most eloquent of exhortations, and the best of matters for the outcome of the hereafter.
Allah has taken it as a proof, so that those who perish [through disbelief] do so upon evidence, and those who live [in faith] do so upon evidence.

And the messenger of Allah has already clarified what was entrusted to him (what he was sent for),
so take upon yourself his inheritance and what he left behind him from the two weighty things –
the book of Allah and his Ahlulbayt, who do not lead astray those who hold onto (follow) them, and is not guided who leaves them, 

Oh Allah send blessings upon Muhammad, your slave, and your messenger, the master of the messengers, and the leader of the pious, and the messenger of the Lord of the worlds.

[Narrator’s words:] Then you say:

Oh Allah, send blessings upon Amir al-Mu'minin, the trustee of the messenger of the Lord of the worlds.

[Narrator’s words:] Then you name the Imams after him until you reach your man (the Imam of your time).

[Narrator’s words:] Then you say:

Open up for him an easy conquest,
And grant him a dear victory,
Oh Allah, let prevail through him your Deen, and the Sunnah of your Prophet,
until nothing of the truth is hidden in fear - from any of the creation.
Oh Allah, verily we beseech you for an honorable rule (under him),
which reinforces Islam and its people,
And humiliates hypocrisy and its people,
And make us in it (that rule) from the callers to your obedience,
and the leaders in your path.
And give us sustenance of the Dunya and the Akhira.

Oh Allah, what we have known of the truth, then strengthen us enough to bear it,
and what we fall short of in (knowing from) it, then enlighten us (of this shortcoming) .

[Narrator’s words] Then he called Allah against his enemies and asked something for himself and his companions.
Then they raise their hands in supplication and each one asks for the fulfillment of his (legitimate) desires, and once they were done with that, He used to say

O my Lord, answer our call,

[Narrator’s words] And the last of his words was to say:

Verily Allah commands justice and goodness,
and giving to those near of kin.
And He forbids lewdness and abomination and tyranny, and exhorts you to be remembering of Him.

[Narrator’s words] Then he said:

Oh Allah make us of those who remember and profit from the remembrance.




Then he descended (from the pulpit)." (Sahih)
