Quran and Etrat
Quran and Etrat (relatives (of Prophet PH):
In Maani-ol-akhbar and many other narrative books it has been narrated a famous narration from Prophet Mohammad (PH) which is called Thaqaleyn (two heavy things) hadith and in a part of it he stated: ((I leave two valuable things among you as a memorial; the book of Allah (Quran) and my Ahl-e-bayt (AS) (the family of Prophet Mohammad PH; including Imam Ali AS, Lady Fateme SA, Imam Hasan (AS), Imam Hussain AS and their sons) … these two never separate each other until when they come to at the Kowsar pool.))
Imam Ali (AS) pointed to this content of this narration from Prophet (PH) in many speeches.
For instance, in oration 154 of Nahj-ol-balaqe he stated about Etrat (relatives (of Prophet PH): ((the holy verse of Quran are about them and they are the treasures of merciful God.))
Or in another speech, in wise saying number 432 he knew Ahl-e-bayt (AS) (the family of Prophet Mohammad PH; including Imam Ali AS, Lady Fateme SA, Imam Hasan (AS), Imam Hussain AS and their sons) as the clear symbol of saints of God and described the relationship between Quran and them as:
((the book of Allah (Quran) is been known through them and they themselves gained knowledge through Quran. the book of Allah (Quran) is stood through them and they are also stood through Quran.))
In other statement, he beside mentioning that the cognition of the correct way is when you know misled people as well and compliance to firm promise of Quran is when you know the violators of covenant of Quran, stated: ((do cling to Quran in order to know the ones who has laid Quran aside. Seek Quran and its knowledge from those who deserve it and they are Ahl-e-bayt (AS) (the family of Prophet Mohammad PH; including Imam Ali AS, Lady Fateme SA, Imam Hasan (AS), Imam Hussain AS and their sons) of Prophet Mohammad PH.)) in order to describe them (Ahl-e-bayt (AS) (the family of Prophet Mohammad PH; including Imam Ali AS, Lady Fateme SA, Imam Hasan (AS), Imam Hussain AS and their sons) he added: ((they are the life of knowledge and the death of ignorance. They are the ones who their injunction signals their knowledge, their silence signals their logic and their appearance is telling of their inward. They do not oppose the religion, nor they dispute in religion.))
In oration 2 also, to introduce Etrat (relatives (of Prophet PH) he stated: ((they are the state of secrets of Allah, the refuge of affair of God, the repository of the divine knowledge, the reference of order of Allah and the guard and support of divine books and the religion of Allah.))
Quran and Etrat (relatives (of Prophet PH):
In a sedition, group of naive people of Imam Ali (AS)’s army has been deceived; Imam (AS) made effort to give this insight to his companions. In oration 122, these speeches have been narrated as: ((this is a fraud; its outward is faith and its inward is aggression and it will lead to your repentance. Continue your fighting and do not hear to these seducer voices and deviational invitations well and I am more worthy to be followed by you; I have never been separated from Quran. (it is good to mention that the topic of conformity between the manner of Imam Ali (AS) and Quran has been pointed to in oration 205 when the event of incendiary of Talha and Zubair happened, in another way.) he also spoke painfully about this disaster, scatteration and deviation in oration 87:
((where are you going? Where are you turning back to astray? While the signs are upright and the signs and rations are clear and the radiant signs are stood. How you are being misled and bewildered while the Etrat (relatives (of Prophet PH) of your Prophet (PH), who are in charges of right and the signs of the religion and fluent language of honest, are among you! So put them at the best statuses which Quran has, respect them and go to them like thirsty people.))
In oration 138, where he spoke about the savior at the end of the world, he introduces the government of Imam Mahdi (AJ), the very government of justice. He stated about the signs of that era that: ((the opinions will tend to Quran when they inclined Quran to their opinions.)) And in continue, he introduced Imam Mahdi (AJ) as the reviver of book (Quran) and tradition (of Prophet PH and Imams AS).
In oration 87 beside blaming the ones who got separated from the right way and became inwardly blind, he stated:
((did not I acted according to Theql-e-akbar (the bigger gravity) (Quran) among you? Did not I leave Theql-e-asghar (the smaller gravity) (Etrat (relatives (of Prophet PH) for you? I have made firm the flag of faith among you, raised it and I have put you at the court of borders of divine lawful and unlawful.))
