The Continuity of the Divine Testament Since the Time of Adam عليه السلام

Narrated to us my father رضي الله عنه: Narrated to us Abdullah bin Ja’far [he said: Narrated to us Ibrahim bin Hashim from Abi Ja’far from Uthman bin Aslam from Dharih from Abi Abdullah عليه السلام that he said: I heard him say: “By Allah, after Adam عليه السلام Allah, the Mighty and Sublime did not leave the earth without an Imam, who may guide the people to Allah, the Mighty and Sublime and who is the Proof of Allah on the people. One who leaves him is destroyed and one who remains attached to him gets salvation. And it is the right upon Allah (the Mighty and Sublime).”
Narrated to us my father رضي الله عنه: Narrated to us Abdullah bin Ja’far from Muhammad bin Isa from Ja’far bin Bashir and Safwan bin Yahya, all of them from Dharih from Abi Abdullah عليه السلام the same tradition.
