  1. Imam Ali ibn Musa al-Rida [a] said

    When Imam Reza (a.s.) reached Nishapur and intended to go to Mamoon, the narrators of traditions gathered around him and said, "O son of Allah's Messenger! You are leaving us without having said any tradition, which could benefit us." Imam (a.s.) was seated in the camel saddle. He put his head out and said, "I heard my father, Musa Ibne Ja'far (a.s.), who says he heard from his father, Ja'far Ibne Muhammad (a.s.), who says he heard from his father, Muhammad Ibne Ali (a.s.), who says he heard from his father, Ali Ibne Husain (a.s.), who says he heard from his father, Husain Ibne Ali (a.s.), who says he heard from his father, Amirul Momineen Ali Ibne Abi Talib (a.s.), who says he heard from the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.), who says he heard from Jibraeel, who says he heard from Almighty Allah that, 'The statement Laa ilaaha illallaah is My fort. One who enters My fort will remain safe from My punishment'." When they moved on, he loudly said: "There are certain conditions for this. And I am one of these conditions."

  2. The Holy Prophet [s] said

    Once the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) was sitting with his companions including Ali Ibne Abi Talib (a.s.). "One who recites Laa ilaaha illallaah shall enter Paradise." Two of the companions sitting there said, "We also recite Laa ilaaha illallaah." The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said, "Only the statement of Laa ilaaha illallaah said by him [Ali (a.s.)] and his Shias will be accepted. With whom the Almighty Allah has made a covenant." They both again said, "We also recite Laa ilaaha illallaah." This time, the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) kept his hand on the head of Ali (a.s.) said, "The sign (of acceptance of the statement of Laa ilaaha illallaah) is that one should not break oaths given to him, nor sit in his place or reject his words."

  13. Other Narrators

    Huzaifa says that Allah is never angry on one who recites Laa ilaaha illallaah properly. However, this is applicable till he sacrifices this world for the sake of religion. If religion is sacrificed for the sake of this world he will be told that you have turned towards the world. It will be further said that they are liars and they do not speak the truth.
