AT-TAKATHUR (RIVALRY IN WORLD INCREASE, COMPETITION

Pearl of Wisdom

'As for Husayn , he is from me, he is my son, my offspring, and the Imam Husayn b. ?Ali (AS) best of all mankind after his brother. He is the Imam of the Muslims, the Master of the Believers, the vicegerent of the Lord of the Universe, the helper of those who seek assistance, the refuge of those who seek refuge, the proof of Allah on all of His creation. He is the chief of the youth of Paradise, the door to the community's salvation. His command is my command. Obedience to him is obedience to me. Whoever follows him is associated with me and whoever disobeys him cannot be associated with me.'

Prophet Muhammad al-Mustafa [sawa]

Amali al-Saduq, no. 101
