Enlightening Points Deduced from the Holy Quran about Leadership with Divine Authority)
24ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَادٍّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ عَنِ الثُّمَالِيِّ عَنْ ابي جعفر (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ أَوْحَى الله إِلَى نَبِيِّهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فَاسْتَمْسِكْ بِالَّذِي أُوحِيَ إِلَيْكَ إِنَّكَ عَلى صِراطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ قَالَ إِنَّكَ عَلَى وَلايَةِ عَلِيٍّ وَعَلِيٌّ هُوَ الصِّرَاطُ الْمُسْتَقِيمُ.
24. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Nadr ibn Shu‘ayb from Khalid ibn Ma’dd from Muhammad ibn al-Fudayl from al-Thumali from abu Ja‘far عليه السلام who has said the following. “Allah sent revelation to His prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم in which He has said, “Follow devotedly that which is revealed to you. You are certainly on the right path.” (43:43) The Imam عليه السلام said, “It is just as saying, ‘You have acknowledged the Leadership with Divine Authority of Ali عليه السلام and Ali is on the right path.”
