CHAPTER 5
SURAH HUD HUD66"WHAT REMAINS WITH ALLAH IS BETTER FORYOU IF YOU ARE BELIEVERS"Shaafic Scholar
Syed Momin Shablanji has quoted a long
tradition in his book 'NOOR-UL-ABSAAR'
from Imam Mohammad Baquir (A.S). A
part of it is given below:-"So
when Mahdi (A.S) will reappear he will rest his back against the wall of Kaaba and 313 of his followers will
gather around him. Then the first word which he will utter will be
the verse of Holy Quran "BAQIYATULLAH
- HE- KHAYR.UL-LAKUM-IN-KUNTUM MOMINEEN'. Thereafter he will say "I am BAQIYATUL-LAH. HIS vicegerents
and caliph and His Proof (HUJJAT) upon you. After that who ever will
salute him will salute him in this words"ASSALAAMO-ALAIYKA-YA
BAQUIYATALLAH FIL-ARDEHI"
(Peace be upon you '0' the Remnant of God on his earth)
(Noor-nl-Absaar, page
172)Also Allamah lbn-e-Sabbagh-Maliki (in twelveth chapter of his book
"AL-FUSOOL-AL-MUHIMMAH" and other scholars have quoted this tradition.AUTHOR: The explanation of the verse does not come into conflict with the tradition about
Prophet Shoeb (A.S.). because TANZEEL (descendence) and TAWEEL (explanation) are two different things and the Quran also has ZAAHIR (outward meaning) and BAATIN (hidden
meaning). Hence the interpretation of either of them
when continous traditions are found do not
create any controversy.
