Warning … Danger … Wake up!

Part 1 

In different writings of this site we have repeatedly proven, without a shadow of a doubt, that from the beginning of creation the only way to Salvation has been the Wilayat of Lord of Prophets, Hazrat Mohammad and his Infallible AhlulBayt (SBUT) …

As also discussed in the E-book “Dajjaal … Antichrist …” from the beginning Shaitan (Eblis) -being of the jinn with freedom of will, turning his back to Allah’s Mercy and thus having no hope for Salvation- out of jealousy and arrogance, started his enmity with this progeny … so that many would not believe in them and thus lose Salvation … and this enmity is still in progress …

Human followers of Shaitan -under his management- almost totally removed the event of God’s command to angels to fall in prostration before Adam (SBUH) from the book which is known as the Bible; keeping in mind that Eblis by pretending to worship God was standing in the line of angels … The arrogant and jealous and disbelieving Eblis absolutely did not like God’s prostration command … he wanted to be the object of prostration himself …

This current bible, with all its omissions, additions and distortions, only implicitly mentions the prostration event; the following is a quotation from Dr. McElwain from his book “Islam in the Bible”:

“(Hebrews 1:6) is from a non-Biblical Jewish tradition which also appears in the Qur'an: `And let all the angels of God worship him.' The personage primarily referred to in the original tradition is Adam, to whom the angels are commanded to prostrate. The word `worship' in Hebrews refers to prostration before a high personage such as a king.”

But other sources (though wrapped in distortions which we do not repeat here) still clearly refer to the fact that Shaitan (Satan) disobeyed God; Book of Adam, Jewish Encyclopedia, by Louis Ginzberg mentions:

“… Satan hated Adam ... After God had created man, He ordered all the angels to prostrate themselves before Adam, but Satan rebelled against God's command..." “God cast him out from heaven ...”

(Isa. xiv. 13) (Slavonic Book of Enoch, xxxi. 18, and Mek., Shirah, § 2) 

Islamic Hadiths confirm that God’s command for prostration before Adam (SBUH) was due to the Light of Hazrat Mohammad and his AhlulBayt (SBUT) which were being put within Adam, for in the world Mohammad and his AhlulBayt  (SBUT) are of children of Adam (SBUH); let us look at a sample of such Hadiths:

Abu-Sa’eed al-Khudri said that one day that they were sitting with the Rasool of Allah (SAWA), a person asked him (SAWA) of the meaning of the verse: Have you been Arrogant, or have you been of al-‘Aaleen العالین?! (38:75) That person continued and asked: O Rasool of Allah! Who are al-‘Aaleen (the highest and most exalted creations of Allah), those who are more exalted than the angels? The Prophet (SAWA) answered:

“I and ‘Ali and Fatemah and al-Hasan and al-Hosain [SBUT]; we were in the Soraadeq of the ‘Arsh (threshold of the Throne) of Allah, we glorified Allah then the angels glorified Him by our glorification (Tasbih) years before Allah created Adam, and when Allah- Undefeated and Mighty- created Adam He commanded the angels to prostrate to him, they were not commanded to prostrate but for our honor [their Lights … being placed in Adam’s generation …]. All the angels prostrated, but Eblis refused to prostrate. Allah said to him: O Iblis! What prevented you from prostrating yourself to whom I have created with my hands? Have you been arrogant? Or have you been of al-‘Aaleen?! He said: Of these five whose names are written on the Soraadeq of al-‘Arsh?! We are the gates through which Allah bestows and by us He guides those who are guided; he who loves us, Allah loves him and enters him to His Heaven, and he who has animosity against us, Allah dislikes him and enters him to His Fire; And loves us not except he whose birth is pure.”

(Beshaaraat al-Shi’ah, Shaikh Sadooq; Tafsir Jaame’, vol. 6, p. 46; …)

In regard to the Allah’s acceptance of Hazrat Adam (SBUH)’s returning to Him, the Qur’an 2:37 states that Hazrat Adam (SBUH) was shown “Kalemaat (Words)”; through Adam’s seeking them as the means and thus through their Intercession, Allah turned to Adam mercifully, and the Hadiths verify that the “Words” were the Names and the Lights of Mohammad, ‘Ali, Fatemah, Hasan and Hosain (SBUT). (Tafsir Qommi; Osul Kaafi; Tafsir Noor al-Thaqalayn; …) 

Ironically similar hadiths are seen in Sunni documents; as a sample:

It is narrated from ibn ‘Abbaas who asked the Prophet in regard to the Words which Allah taught Adam and by which his repentance was accepted; the Prophet (SAWA) responded that the Words that Adam were taught to say were: By the Rightfulness and Value of Mohammad and ‘Ali and Fatimah and Hasan and Hosain accept my repentance.”; the Prophet continued that then Allah accepted Adam’s repentance.

(Sunni al-Dur al-Mansur, vol. 1, pp. 60-61; …)

Also we see incomplete and distorted traces of this in jewish and christian documents; for instance in the same Book of Adam, Jewish Encyclopedia, in regard to Adam and Eve it is said:

“… they [Adam and Eve] were terrified when the darkness of night began to fall upon the earth ('Ab. Zarah, 8a), and the INTERCESSION OF GOD'S WORD () was NECESSARY …”

… So from the beginning Hazrat Mohammad and his AhlulBayt (SBUT) were the keys for Salvation …

… Anyhow … the jealous and arrogant Shaitan tempted followers of Prophets step by step through seemingly logical, mystical and … justifications to deviate them from the Straight Path of God …

In Sermon 121 of the Nahj al-Balaaghah it is stated that Hazrat ‘Ali (SBUH) has warned us:

“Certainly, Satan has made his ways easy for you and wants to unfasten the knots of the Religion one by one and to cause division among you in place of unity. Keep away from his evil ideas and enchantments and accept good advice of one who offers it to you and preserve it in your minds.”

Let us be careful Shaitan has been opening humans’ beliefs one knot at a time, and has been presenting many easy and colorful ways in place of the one and only Allah Ordained Straight Path … and has been misleading humans slowly but surely toward eternal Perdition …

Ah! The arrogant and jealous Shaitan worked so hard and precise … and world-loving humans followed him so much … that Amir al-Mo’menin (SBUH) has described the world at time of Hazrat Mohammad (SAWA)’s declaration of Prophethood as follows:

“… From his (Adam’s) progeny Allah chose prophets and took their pledge for his revelation and for carrying His message as their trust. In course of time many people perverted Allah’s trust with them and ignored His position and took compeers along with Him. Satan turned them away from knowing Him and kept them aloof from His worship. Then Allah sent His Messengers and series of His prophets towards them to get them to fulfil the pledges of His creation, to recall to them His bounties, to exhort them by preaching, to unveil before them the hidden virtues of wisdom and show them the signs of His Omnipotence …

“Allah never allowed His creation to remain without a Prophet deputized by Him, or a book sent down from Him or a binding argument or a standing plea. These Messengers were such that they did not feel little because of smallness of their number or of largeness of the number of their falsifiers. Among them was either a predecessor who would name the one to follow or the follower who had been introduced by the predecessor.

“In this way ages passed by and times rolled on, fathers passed away while sons took their places till Allah deputized Muhammad (peace be upon him and his progeny) as His Prophet, in fulfilment of His promise and in completion of His Prophethood. His pledge had been taken from the Prophets, his traits of character were well reputed and his birth was honorable. The people of the earth at this time were divided in different parties, their aims were separate and ways were diverse. They either likened Allah with His creation, or twisted His Names, or turned to else than Him. Through Muhammad (S) Allah guided them out of wrong and with his efforts took them out of ignorance …”

(Nahj al-Balaghah, Sermon 1)

… And finally came that Last Prophet and his AhlulBayt (SBUT) whom all Prophets (SBUT) had introduced …

… And now is the time of the last Successor of the Last Prophet (SBUT) whom all Prophets had anticipated: …

And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars. (Bible, Rev 12:1) 

And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. (Rev 12:5) 

Imam Askari (SBUH) has said:

“When Allah bestowed Mahdi of this Ommat (Nation) to me, He sent two angels and they took him to the Soraadeq of ‘Arsh (threshold of the Throne …) until he was located before Allah's Presence; and Allah said to him: O My servant! Marhaba [expressing Pleasedness, Approval, …] to you for assisting My Religion, and revealing My Amr, and guiding My servants; verily I take from My servants through you, and through you I bestow; and I forgive them through you, and based on you I reprimand them.

Allah, addressing the two angels, continued: You two angels! Return him to his father kindly; deliver him, for, he is in security, and in my protection, and under my watch, until when by him the Truth shall be fulfilled and all falsehood will perish. And the Religion has always been Mine.”

Ah! But we have not done much better than the followers of previous Prophets (SBUT) …

Let us never forget that Shaitan’s goal now is to take us -who still, though weakly, cling to the Wilayat of Hazrat Mohammad and his AhlulBayt (SBUT)- away from this foundation of True Monotheism and fountain of everlasting Salvation …

Qur’an 57:16. Has not the time come for the hearts of those who Believe to be softened and humbled for Allah's Reminder and that which has been sent from the Truth. And do not be like those upon whom the Divine Book was sent before, and the term was prolonged for them and so their hearts were hardened [for the Truth]; and many of them have been disobedient to Allah?

Qur’an 57:17. Know that certainly Allah gives life to the earth after its death! Indeed, We have made clear the Signs to you, if you but reflect [upon them].

In regard to “Know that certainly Allah gives life to the earth after its death” Imam Baqir (SBUH) has said that Allah SWT shall give life to earth by the Qaa’em (SBUH) after its death; and that death of the earth is its people’s Disbelief, and Disbeliever is dead.

(Tafsir Noor al-Thaqalayn; …)

This lonesome Occultation has been casting its shadow for centuries … and we have been like stubborn orphans adding to our negligence and obstinacy day by day …

Prophet Mohammad and his AhlulBayt (SBUT) have warned that there would come days when:
