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

53ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَلِوالِدَيَّ وَلِمَنْ دَخَلَ بَيْتِيَ مُؤْمِناً يَعْنِي الْوَلايَةَ مَنْ دَخَلَ فِي الْوَلايَةِ دَخَلَ فِي بَيْتِ الانْبِيَاءِ (عَلَيْهم السَّلام) وَقَوْلُهُ إِنَّما يُرِيدُ الله لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيراً يَعْنِي الائِمَّةَ (عليهم السلم) وَوَلايَتَهُمْ مَنْ دَخَلَ فِيهَا دَخَلَ فِي بَيْتِ النَّبِيِّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه )
53. A number of our people has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from ibn Faddal from al-Mufaddal ibn Salih from Muhammad ibn Ali al-Halabi from abu ‘Abdallah عليه السلام about the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Gracious. “Lord, forgive me, my parents, the believers who have entered my home and all believing . .” (71:28) The Imam عليه السلام said, “Home means Wilaya of Imam Ali (Leadership with Divine Authority). Whoever acknowledges Wilaya has entered the home of the prophets. The house mentioned verse 33:33 also refers to Wilaya. “People of the house, God wants to remove all kinds of uncleanliness from you and to purify you thoroughly.” (33:33) It refers to the Imams عليه السلام and their Wilaya (Leadership with Divine Authority). Whoever would acknowledge it he has found a place in the house of The Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم.”
