THE WHOLE OF ISLAM
A summary of what we said so far would be that the
Holy Prophet (s.a.w) in one of Hadiths stressed the point
that his hadiths should be narrated and recorded. In
another group he said:
Dont let it be that
someone out of annoyance or aggravation should say
Show it to me in the Quran, when one of my Hadiths
is narrated for him. No, this statement is incorrect. You
must not say that I speak not except on the basis of
revelation, I say nothing except the truth.
Remembering these introductory facts we may now go on
to a study of the alterations they made after the
prophets death. From that moment on, his supporters (who
were the subjects of his speeches address) turned to
oppose him, thus becoming the vast source of the
alteration of Islamic truths.
In the following discussions we will prove that the
Prophet (s.a.w) dictated the collection of religious
commandments to Imam Ali (a.s), and the Imam also
recorded them in a book called [Al-Jameah]. If you had
heard the terms, [Jafr] and [Jameah] mentioned in the
Shiite Hadiths, [Jameah] is this very book. After Imam
Ali Ibn Abi Talib (a.s) this valuable collection was
passed onto each of the Holy Imams (a.s). And
occasionally they would show it to other certain persons
and they used to extract Hadiths form it. According to
existing reliable sources, this collection was made of
leather and was seventy [Dhera] long. As such the Holy
Prophet dictated his Hadith or that which was revealed to
him and which mankind needed until Resurrection Day, all
of it, to Imam Ali and he, in turn, wrote it down and
left it for the Holy Imams.
The Holy Prophet (s.a.w) communicated to his
supporters and companions those of the Islamic religious
laws which were needed by the Muslims of his time. This
means those laws that concerned events which occured at
that time and the Muslims questioned him about, or points
that was necessary to notify them of. There was a series
of matters however, whose time of enactment had not yet
arrived. These, he left as a trust with his executor Imam
Ali (a.s) so that in their time he or his descendants
would relate them to the people. The Holy Prophet
proclaimed the command or ruling of that which was needed
during his own lifetime and then commanded that his
sayings be related to others and for them to be written
down for safekeeping as a legacy for future generations.
Islam at that time was comprised of the Holy Quran and
these types of the Prophets saying and or the relating of
his religious actions, together making up the Prophets
Sunnat, which is in turn comprised of two
parts, Hadith and Sireh.
