CHAPTER 3

SURAH TUBAH

TAUBAH 36

"SURELY THE NUMBER OF MONTHS WITH ALLAH IS TWELVE MONTHS IN ALLAH'S ORDINANCE
SINCE THE DAY WHEN HK CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE
EARTH."

The
Great Scholar Syed Hashim Behrani writes in his book 'GHAYTOOL-MAARAM', quoting Faqih
Abul Hasan Mohammad bin Ali bin Shazaan, who in turn quotes lbn-e-Abbas in his book 'AL-MANAQIB-AI.-MIATA-MIN-TAREEQUL AAMMA':

lbn-e-Abbas says
that he heard from the prophet (PBUH).
(from a long tradition)

'0' people whosoever wants to
recognise after me the Vicegerent
of God (VALI-e - KHUDA) should
recognise Ali [A.S] '"0' people, whosoever wants to follow me should follow Ali
(A.S), and give obedience to him and accept the WILAYAT and authority
of lmams of my progeny, because they are treasures and Guardians of my Knowledge." Thereafter Jabbir got up. and asked: "
'0' Prophet of God, How
many Imams are there? The holy
prophet replied, " '0''Jaabir may God bless you. You have inquired from me about the whole of Islam. Their number is equal to the number
of months and that "SURELY THE NUMBER OF MONTHS WITH
ALLAH IS TWELVE." (9:36).
Then he said '0' Jaabir
Imams are also twelve. The first
of them is Ali lbn-Abi Talib (A.S.) and
the last is 'QAIM'.
(GHAYAATUL-MARAAM page 244)

AUTHOR:

The fact that the Holy prophet compared the twelve Imams with twelve months and then his reciting
the Holy verse of Quran (9:36). and then immediately saying that the Imams are twelve and
the last one of them is 'QAIM', all these things prove and give witness that the interpretation of this holy verse is the Infallible lrnarns
(A.S.) and the interpretation
given by the Holy prophet is
the spirit of Holy Ouran.
