The Sufficient (Vol 1) · Hadith 1175 (#Ḥadīth #7)

7ـ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُمْهُورٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنِ الْفُضَيْلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ ابي جعفر قَالَ إِنَّ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ نَصَبَ عَلِيّاً عَلَماً بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ خَلْقِهِ فَمَنْ عَرَفَهُ كَانَ مُؤْمِناً وَمَنْ أَنْكَرَهُ كَانَ كَافِراً وَمَنْ جَهِلَهُ كَانَ ضَالاً وَمَنْ نَصَبَ مَعَهُ شَيْئاً كَانَ مُشْرِكاً وَمَنْ جَاءَ بِوَلايَتِهِ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ.

7. Al-Hussein b. Muhammad, from Mu‘alla b. Muhammad, from Muhammad b. Jumhoor who said: Yunus narrated to us from Hammad b. Uthman from Al-Fudayl b. Yasar from Abu Ja'far who said: "Indeed, Allah, Mighty and Majestic, appointed Ali as a sign between Him and His creation. Whoever acknowledges him is a believer, and whoever denies him is an unbeliever. Whoever is ignorant of him is misguided, and whoever who sets up something alongside him is a polytheist. Whoever comes with his Wilayah will enter Paradise."
