Enlightening Points Deduced from the Holy Quran about Leadership with Divine Authority)

38ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الله الْحَسَنِيِّ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ ابي جعفر (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فِي قَوْلِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَأَنْ لَوِ اسْتَقامُوا عَلَى الطَّرِيقَةِ لاسْقَيْناهُمْ ماءً غَدَقاً يَقُولُ لاشْرَبْنَا قُلُوبَهُمُ الايمَانَ وَالطَّرِيقَةُ هِيَ وَلايَةُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَالاوْصِيَاءِ (عَلَيْهم السَّلام )
38. Ahmad ibn Mihran has narrated from ‘‘Abd al-‘Azim ibn ‘Abdallah al-Hassani from Musa ibn Muhammad from Yunus ibn ya‘qub from the one he mentioned from abu Ja‘far عليه السلام about the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most gracious. “Had they (jinn and mankind) remained steadfast in their religion (Islam), We would certainly have given them abundant water to drink” (72:16) The Imam عليه السلام said, “It means that Allah would quench their heart with faith. Religion is a reference to Leadership of Ali ibn abu Talib عليه السلام and the executor of his will with Divine Authority.”
