3. Ayah: [Shakir 3:81] And when Allah made a covenant through the
prophets: Certainly what I have given you of Book and wisdom-- then an
messenger comes to you verifying that which is with you, you must believe
in him, and you must aid him. He said: Do you affirm and accept my
compact in this (matter)? They said: We do affirm. He said: Then bear
witness, and I (too) am of the bearers of witness with you.
The covenant of Prophets was of the Wilayat of Moula Ali (a.s).

4. Ayah: [Shakir 3:103] And hold fast by the covenant of Allah all together
and be not disunited, and remember the favour of Allah on you
when you were enemies, then He united your hearts so by His favour you
became brethren; and you were on the brink of a pit of fire, then He saved
you from it, thus does Allah make clear to you His communications that
you may follow the right way Wahahtasebu baijab lillah means the Wilay
of Moula Ali (a.s).

6. Ayah: [Shakir 2:249] So when Talut departed with the forces, he said:
Surely Allah will try you with a river; whoever then drinks from it, he is
not of me, and whoever does not taste of it, he is surely of me, except he
who takes with his hand as much of it as fills the hand; but with the
exception of a few of them they drank from it. So when he had crossed it,
he and those who believed with him, they said: We have today no power
against Jalut and his forces. Those who were sure that they would meet
their Lord said: How often has a small party vanquished a numerous host
by Allah's permission, and Allah is with the patient. The word Nayharr
refers to the Wilayat of Moula Ali (a.s) as the children of Israel were tested

We have to bear this in mind that just because something is not practiced
at present time it does not mean that it is not a part of our act of worship.
We all know that so many things have been changed in Namaz that it is
now a very big problem between different sects of Muslims as they all
have different ways to pray Namaz so accepting Namaz as it is practiced
today cannot be justified without trying hard to find out the things which
were originally part of Namaz but were struck off sometime back by the
enemies of Islam in a well planned and organized manner. We have to look
and seek further deep down inside it Specially if something is regarding the
Wilayat of Moula Ali (a.s) as we surely know that this was the very things
that the rulers have tried their level best to eradicate and there was a time
when just taking the name of Moula Ali (a.s) was enough to be killed by the
tyrant rulers and their equally tyrant lobby. Thinking about such a time
we have to consider that how could anyone testify the Wilayat of Amer ul
Momineen Ali (a.s) ibne Abi Talib (a.s) openly and loudly? Majority of
people during those times used to do ‘Taqayya ‘just to save them from
harm. This period of Taqayya was so prolonged that disappeared even
from the thoughts of Shias themselves. Even our
Aimma refrained from openly teaching the Kalma which included to
general public but instead used to teach the complete Kalma to some
trustworthy companions only who would then convey it to the lovers of
Ahlul Bait. Hence in the Book Al Kafi there is a tradition (Hadis) of Imam
Mohammad Baqir (a.s) which says “If we would have fixed the tashahud of
Namaz, our followers and lovers (Mawalis) would have been killed”. Hence
if the recitation of in Tashahud is not practiced today it
should not be taken for granted but instead we should try and see if it was
practiced earlier and if we could find the proofs in Saqalain (Quran and
157
Ahadis of Aimma). We should all try to find out the answers to the
following questions, which come to our mind regarding the Third
Shahadat in Namaz:
Does our faith and logic (Aql) allow us to recite in Tashahud of Namaz?
Has Quran ever ordered us to recite the third Shahadat?
Are there any Ahadis (Traditions of Aimma a.s) to support the recitation?
How did Rasool-e-Khuda (s.a.w.) and our Imam used to recite Tashahud?
What does the Fuqaha (Islamic Clergy/Scholars) say about 3rd Shahadat?
Now let us try and shed some light on each of the Questions separately:
And
those who are upright in their testimonies (Shahadaatehum), and those
who keep a guard on their prayer, those shall be in gardens, honoured" It
is important to note here that the word Shahadat (Plural) in
Arabic is only used for at least 3 testimonies - It cannot be used for 2
testimonies, for two testimonies the word in Arabic is ‘Shahadatain In the
above Ayah-e-Quran God Almighty is describing the glories of people who
testifies 3rd Shahadat in their Namaz and safeguards their prayers
(Namaz).
[Shakir 35:10] Whoever desires honour, then to Allah belongs the honour
wholly To Him do ascend the good words (Al Kelam Al Tayyab); and the
good deeds, lift them up, and (as for) those who plan evil deeds, they shall
have a severe chastisement; and (as for) their plan, it shall perish. In the
above ayah of Quran the word used is "Al Kelam Al Tayyab" which is
again in plural form (Sega-e-Jama) and as mentioned above in Arabic the
plural form like this is only used for Three or more? So the usage of "Al
Kelam Al Tayyab" or the Purified (3 or More) Kalama’s clearly indicates
that the Kalma which reaches and is accepted by God Almighty consists of
Three or more Kalma. Now if we see that majority of Muslims including
some Shias only recite Two Kalama’s (Kalma-e-Touheed & Kalma-e-
Risalat) in Tashahud, allow me to say that this type of Kalama does not
reach or is not accepted by God Almighty as he only accepts the shahadat
(witness) which consists of 3 or more Kalma. Now let us see how Imam
Jaffar Sadiq (a.s) explains the words ‘Al Kelam Al Tayyab’ Tafseer
Ayashi, Tafseer Saafi Our Imam said "Al Kelam Al Tayyab means the act
of Momin whereby he recites La illaha illallah-Mohammedans Rasool
Allah and " The above is an absolutely clear and undeniable proof that we
should all recite not just in Kalma, Azan and Aqamah as compulsory
159
part but also in (Tashahud) Namaz as an integral part.
[Shakir 13:25] And those who break the covenant of Allah after its
confirmation and cut asunder that which Allah has ordered to be joined
and make mischief in the land; (as for) those, upon them shall be curse
and they shall have the evil (issue) of the abode.
URDU " Yeh Ehad Wilayat Ali(a.s) ki Gawahi ko Bilafasal touheed 'o'
Risalat Kay saath milanay ka tha - Aur Jo qata kartay hain WO hi
Jahanumi hay”
TRADITIONS (AHADIS)
In Tanveerul Emaan by Sheikh Yaqoob Al Kulainy : Quotes a tradition
from Rasool-e-Khuda (pbuh & hp) “God instructed Hazrat Mohammad
Mustafa when the Prophet (pbuh & hp) was returning from Mairaj: God
said ‘inform this to your Ummat that Ali Wali ullah is Wasilla between you
and me so do not leave him. And remember that neither your Azan will be
complete without it nor Aqamah or Namaz or Roza or Hajj or Zakat and
not even your birth or death without mentioning.
Book Shajar-e-Touba Published from Najaf -Iraq :- Utba bin Amir Jehni
companion of Holy Prophet ( pbuh & hp ) narrates :- We did the ‘ Bait ‘
of Rasool-e-Khuda ( pbuh & hp ) on these lines : Ash hado anna La illaha
illalla wa Ash hado Anna Mohammedan Nabiye’hi wa an Ali’in Wasi’ yehi
: and if we reject any one of these testimonies we will become Kafir.

Book Muqadmah Mishkat ul Anwar- Imam Ali (a.s) ibn-e-Abi Talib says
“The one who does not accept/ testify my Wilayat will not get any benefit
from accepting/ testifying Mohammad’s ( pbuh & hp ) Risalat - Be aware
both these testimonies are compulsory with each other”

Rules Related to a Dying Person
1. A Muslim who is dying, whether man or woman, old or young, should, as
a measure of precaution, be laid on his/her back if possible, in such a
manner that the soles of his/her feet would face the Qibla (direction
towards the holy Kabah)
2. It is recommended that the dead body should be laid facing the Qibla
during the Ghusl’s. However, when Ghusl’s are completed, it is better to
lay it the same way as it is laid when prayers are offered for it.
