#eideghadeer

Extract from the sermon of Ghadir-

O people! There are too many of you to shake my hand at the same time, and Allah, the mighty and the majestic, commanded me to take verbal recognition from you regarding what I finalized (on behalf of Allah) about Ali Ameerul-Mo'mineen, and about the Imams from me and him who shall

Succeed him, based on what l informed you that my offspring are from his loins.

𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞, 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞 :

“We heard, obeyed, are satisfied, and are submitted to what you have conveyed to us from our Lord and your Lord with regard to the authority of Ali Ameerul-Mo'mineen and the authority of the Imams from his loins.

We pledge allegiance to you in this regard with our hearts, our souls, our tongues, and our hands. According to this, shall we live, shall we die, and shall we be resurrected. We shall not alter, nor shall we substitute, nor shall we entertain doubt, nor shall we distrust, nor shall we withdraw from the covenant, nor shall we breach the pact.

"We obey Allah, and obey you and Ali Ameerul-Mo'mineen and his descendants, whom as you mentioned, are from your offspring from his loins after al-Hasan and al-Husain." -I have

already informed you of the position of al-Hasan and al-Husain to me, and their status before Allah. Verily, they are the chiefs of the youth of Paradise. Indeed, they both are Imams after their

father, Ali, and I am their father prior to him - Thus say: "We obey Allah, and obey you, Ali, al-Hasan, al-Husain, and the Imams that you mentioned, based on the covenant and the pledge that are taken from us for the Ameerul-Mo'mineen, from our hearts, our souls, our tongues,

𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐝 to both of them (Prophet ص & Imam Ali ع], or else through affirming by tongue. We shall not seek any substitute for it, nor shall we ever let our souls deviate from it."

~Prophet Muhammadﷺ
