Wednesday, Mar. 19, 2025

Ya Ali Madad. This post consists of two parts:

Part 1: The tawil of Quranic words or ayats pertaining to Imam and Imamat

Let us read the following ta'wil:

Ta'wil of words 'Qāla Rasūl Allāh' (The Messenger of God said):

"The holy Prophet said: "I have left behind among you two weighty things as a rope reaching the earth from heaven, one of them is greater than the other: the Book of Allāh and my itrat (progeny), the people of my house. They will never separate until they will come to me at the pond (of Kawthar)." These two unprecedented and magnificent things, each of which is weightier than the heaven and the earth, or rather the entire universe, are the Qur'ān and its Teacher (the Imam) whom the Prophet appointed as his khalifah or successor. It is they who are the rope of God which is stretched from the heaven to the earth to lift the people of the earth to the heaven (Sharh, X, 481)."
