Hadith 5

(The book) ‘Al-Amaali’ of Al-Sadouq – Majaylawiya, from his uncle, from Al-Barqy, from Ali Bin Al-Husayn Al-Barqy, from Abdullah Bin Jabalah, from Muawiya Bin Ammar, from Al-Hassan Bin Abdullah, from his father, ‘From his grandfather-asws Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws having said: ‘A number of Jews came to Rasool-Allah-saww. They asked him-saww about issues. Among what they asked him-saww was, ‘Inform me about five things written in the Torah, which Allah-azwj has Commanded the children of Israel to believe in Musa-as regarding these, from after him-as’. The Prophet-saww said: ‘I adjure with Allah-azwj that if I-saww were to inform you, you will acknowledge to me-saww’. The Jew said, ‘Yes, O Muhammad-saww! ’
He-asws said, ‘The Prophet-saww said: ‘The first of what is in the Torah, it is written: “Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj”, and it is in Hebrew’. Then Rasool-Allah-saww recited this Verse: they are finding written with them in the Torah and the Evangel [7: 157] and giving glad tidings of a Rasool to come after me, his name being Ahmad’ [61: 6]. And in the second line is the name of my-saww successor Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and the third and the fourth, Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws, and in the fifth line is their-asws mother-asws Fatima-asws, chieftess of the women of the worlds, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon them-asws. And in the Torah is the name of my-saww successor-asws as ‘Elia’, and names of the two grandsons-asws as ‘Shabbar and Shabbir’, and they-asws are both Noor of Fatima-asws’. The Jew said, ‘You-saww speak the truth, O Muhammad-saww! Inform me about your-asws merits, People-asws of the Household’. The Prophet-saww said: ‘There is a merit for me-saww over the Prophets-as, so there is no Prophet-as except he-as had supplicated against his-as people with a supplication, and I-saww have delayed my-saww supplication for my-saww community in order to intercede for them on the Day of Qiyamah. And as for the merits of the People-asws of my-saww Household, and my-saww offspring over others, is like the merit of the water over all things, and by it is life of all things, and love for the People-asws of my-saww Household and my-saww offspring is the perfection of the religion’. And Rasool-Allah-saww recited this Verse: Today I Perfected your Religion for you and Completed My Favour upon you, and am Pleased with as a Religion for you [5: 3] – up to the end of the Verse. The Jew said, ‘You-saww speak the truth, O Muhammad-saww! ’’[4]
