کتاب اعتقاد ما( انگلیسی)

to explain the realities, and clear the meanings of someof the more difficult verses in teh Book to show us better the roots and branches of our religion.

This is because Quran has declared that the words, and the methodical ways( SUNNAT )of the prophetshould serve as an example for us; as that of the God's.

" ..... So take whatever the Apostles assigns to you, anddeny yourselves that which he withholds from you, and fear Allah, for Allah is strict in punishment."

THE HOLY QURN S 95: 7

" It is not becoming to a believer, whether man orwoman, when a matter has been decided by Allah and by His Apostle, to have any option. If anyone disobeys Allah and His Apostle he is on a clearly wrong path."

THE HOLY QURN S 33: 63

" He( i. e. Mohammad )does not speak out of his ownfancy, His speech is none except that which is inspired to him from God.) i. e. what he says is none but inspired revelation

(THE HOLY QURN S 35: 2 3

Those who are indifferent to the SUNNAT of the

prophet are in fact ignoring QURN and the inspiredREVE LATION. Of course whatever is related to the prophet must be clearly proved: That, it really is said by the prophet, and it is not forged.

We cannot easily accept whatever is ascribed to theprophet to be truely of Him!

Emam Ali in one of his speeches WHICHI Scollected in the famous book, namedNAHJOL BALGHEH has said,

" So many lies were forged and ascribed to theprophet. SO much SO that one day he got up and saidto an audience. He who ascribes a lie to me shouldprepare himself to take his place in the Fire of Hell. '"

A similar tradition is also written in the famousbook SAHIH BOKHARI vol one; page 83.

33THE SAINT'S ,(EMAM) METHODECAL WAY )SUNNAT(

WE BELIEVE that the traditions and orders of theinnocent Emams are all taken from the prophet, through their fathers, and are all to be obeyed. There is a famous tradition related by successive witnesses:

" I have left among you two heavy things to preventyou being misled: The Book of Allah and my nearest KINS."

[1]On the other hand ,whatever the

siants have said, are narrations from the prophet: Theprophet foresaw the future and to solve its problems, laid the key in the hands of his nearest kins, and THEBOOK OF ALLAH; and how can a true Muslimignore such a firm and important Hadis!? if the abovetradition was considered precisely, our presentdiff iculties in faith, comments, and the disputes injurisprudence, would not exist.

این صفحه در کتاب اصلی بدون متن است / هذه الصفحة فارغة في النسخة المطبوعة

43WITHOUT RESURRECTION ,LIFE IS VOID

WE BELIEVE that all men and women will beraised up in a certain day after death. They all will be judged, and those who are good and virtuous shall live in PARADISE( THE GARDEN OF BLISS ), and the sinners will join the fire in Hell.

" Allah, there is no God but He. Of a surety He willgather you all together in the resurrection day about which there is no doubt, and whose word can be truer than Allah?"

THE HOLY QURN S 4: 78

" As for he who transgressed and chose this presentlife, his abode will be Hell Fire. And as for those who feared to stand before their LORD, and restrained their souls from lusts,( LOW DESIRES )their abode

will be PARADISE ."

THE HOLY QURN S 97: 73 14

WE BELIEVE that this world is only a bridge thatman should pass it over so as to join an eternall life; or in other word it may be a farm, to sow here and to harvest in hereafter or else it may be taken as a market here to provide for the next life to come.

About this life of ours, Emam Ali says:" This WORLD is a place of truth for him whoconfronts it with truthfulness. It is a house( means )forbeing FREE OF WANT, for him who gathers provisions from it and stores for his next life. It is aplace of awareness for him who takes advice from it. Itis the mosque of the friends of God, a place of worshipfor the angels; where God's inspirations is sent down, and a trade market for God's friends."

53THE REASONS FOR THE RESURRECTION ARE CLEARENOUGH

WE BELIEVE that the reasons to prove theresurrection are very clear, because, it can easily be
