Chapter 11 | Punishment of claiming Imamate while the true Imam is present
أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِیَهَ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ أَبِی سَلَّامٍ عَنْ سَوْرَهَ بْنِ کُلَیْبٍ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: قُلْتُ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ- وَ یَوْمَ الْقِیامَهِ تَرَی الَّذِینَ کَذَبُوا عَلَی اللَّهِ وُجُوهُهُمْ مُسْوَدَّهٌ قَالَ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّهُ إِمَامٌ وَ لَیْسَ بِإِمَامٍ قُلْتُ وَ إِنْ کَانَ عَلَوِیّاً فَاطِمِیّاً قَالَ وَ إِنْ کَانَ عَلَوِیّاً فَاطِمِیّاً.
1. My father said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Muhammad b. al-Hussain from Ibn Fadhal from Muawiyah b. Wahab from Abi Salam from Sawrah b. Kulayb from Abi Ja’far who said: The narrator asked Imam Muhammad Baqir about the verse, “On the Day of Judgment you will see the faces of those who associated lie with Allah to be black.” Imam replied, “This verse is for one who claims to be an Imam while he is not.” The narrator asked, “Is it so even if he is Alawi and Fatimi?” Imam replied, “Yes, even if he is Alawi and Fatimi.”
