WHO IS GOD AND HOW HE GUIDES
God is not visible. He cannot be seen by human beings.
God does not have parents. He does not bear children.
God is one. He is not two or three or twenty.
There is only one true God alone. There is none other.
God is alone and unique. He has no equals and no partners.
God does create, and He does guide.
God sends angels and men as messengers to communicate His message to mankind.
God sent as His messengers to humanity Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, Jesus and Mohammed.
Muhammed is least understood and least appreciated although he is the greatest messenger from God to mankind. His enemies promote false propaganda about him even to this day.
Muhammed like all prophets and messengers of God revealed a simple message for the world. He taught people that idol worship is wrong and that they should love their true creator. He said there is life after death. God will gather the dead and bring them back to life on the day of judgement. They will be held to account. What did they do in their life and why. God will be their ultimate judge. He will bless good people with eternal life in Paradise. He will curse evil wicked people with eternal damnation in fire of Hell.
Here is brief life and character of Muhammed the holy messenger of God.
Muhammed was prophet of God. He was born in Mecca 570 years after Jesus. Peace be upon them both.
His parents died when he was still a child of 6. His uncle Abu Talib cared for him. When he reached 25 he married a rich widow Khadija. They had a happy and loving marriage.
When Muhammad was 40, God sent Angel Gabriel to ask him to begin his divine mission of reforming his people. Angel gave his God’s holy book the Koran. In this holy book, God confirms that He had sent holy books before Koran. But men had altered Torah. They changed the Gospel for selfish interests. Priests had added to and deleted from words of God in the Bible. But now, God had sent again his pure book Koran for guidance of mankind. In the Koran, God urges a person to live a life of justice and mercy. To live life of compassion and be fair to others is the heart of divine teachings in the holy Koran.
Angel Gabriel came and gave this message to Muhammed as he meditated in on top of a mountain. Muhammed came and told his wife and his family what had happened. His wife and few others converted but most rejected his message. At first they mocked him but after a while they began to persecute the messenger of God.
Muhammad simply asked them to believe in the true creator of the universe and love him. This was the only to happiness and salvation. But people began to oppress Muhammad and eventually drove him out of his city. He was given refuge in Medina in the north. He continued to preach God’s message for the world. He encouraged people to use their intellect and seek knowledge always. He taught respect for parents. He said paradise lies under your mother’s feet. If you do not please your own mother then you cannot please God. God will not be happy with you until your mother is happy with you. Chidlren therefore all love their parents and stay with them even in old age. Muhammed also taught immense care for neighbours. He said do not leave your neighbour hungry. If you eat food while your neighbour sleeps hungry, then you are not a believer of God. Muhammed reformed lives of many pagans.
Muhammad was attacked by his enemies. He defended himself and his followers. Enemies of truth did not like him or his teachings. They launched wars upon Muhammed. But God aided His holy messenger. With God's help Muhammad was able to defeat his enemies.
Eventually Muhammed died in 630 and left Ali as heir. Ali was married to Fatima, the daughter of Muhammed. Arabs hated Ali. They killed Ali and his children. Muhammed’s grandson Husayn was killed at Karbala simply for refusing to give allegiance to an evil dictator Yazid.
God bless Muhammed and his family.

MICHEAL, GABRIEL AND ALI
With the Name of Most High the Kind and Merciful.
Vala is power that the Creator gives to His loyal friends. It is the power of the Light over Darkness. It is given to Peacemakers of the Throne. This is the story of one righteous family that was chosen for the Power of Light on the Night of Power. Light seekers with hearts can feel the force. Though the purest things remain hidden, still many a wonderful revelation gets written. Their cool reason sees things supreme. Yet for heedless the beauty veiled remains unseen.
First came Nabi who was chosen of God as His last Envoy to mankind. He was born in Maka in 570. He taught people that false idols are not your creators. There is only one true God. He gave them morals and high standards of life. He encouraged love and respect for one another. He said this life is a test and after it will come a day of judgement when all humans will stand before God. God will hold people to account for their actions. The pious and the evil will be given their due recompence.
The Makans did not like this teaching. They opposed Nabi and drove him out of the city. Only a few men and women believed in him and accepted his message. Persecuted for telling the truth, Nabi abandoned his hometown and migrated to north to Medina. This migration is the hijrat. It marks the start of the new calendar.
In Medina, Nabi converted people to the Way of Peace. They loved his message. They made him their Divine Ruler. Makans tied to destroy him and his religion. They launched major attacks on Medina.
God sent mighty Angels to aid his Envoy. Angel Gabriel and Angel Michael came from heaven and help Nabi and his followers. Nabi successfully defended Medina by winning all four battles. Enemies were defeated. They surrendered and Nabi conquered Maka. He forgave them all. Nabi asked his successor Ali to purify the House of God. In it Makans had stored their 360 idols and false deities one for each day of the year. Nabi circled the Holy House and taught all the tribes worship of God. He went back to Medina and died two months later. He was poisoned. Ali was his successor and inheritor of the Divine Book. But Ali was rejected. Makans conspired and chose their own men to rule over them. Ali did not fight them and remained patient and peaceful.
God loved Ali’s wisdom and nobility. During the life of Nabi, Ali was in danger many times. But God always protected his beloved. At one time, when holy Nabi was worried for Ali, he sent Gabriel back to heaven three times to seek Kaza to intervene and provide divine safety to him. Even before during the historic night of hijrat Ali placed himself in danger to protect God’s Envoy. In that night God dispatched two Angels, Master Gabriel and Master Michael across the seven galaxies to be with their Master and to guard him. Holy Gabriel is a mighty Angel of the Lord. Made of light, a true Master. He is the trustworthiest messenger of God in heaven. He bears God’s message and brings it down to those men on Earth who are chosen by God. He is the Holy Spirit and blessed of God. Gabriel served Master Nabi Mohamed. Whenever Nabi called for him, he came.
In night of hijrat Gabriel protected Ali in the year 622. Makans hated Nabi, giving him endless troubles. When enemies of God plotted to kill Nabi, he turned to Ali. At the fateful hour, God told Nabi to leave his city. On that night of destiny, Nabi asked Ali for help. Ali was told to sleep on Nabi’s bed to confuse the assassins. Not caring for his own life, Ali agreed happily. As long as God’s messenger lived, it mattered not that his own life ended. He preferred Nabi’s life to his own life. He would take Nabi’s cloak nnd sleep on his master’s bed. The assassins would wait and see Nabi trying to sleep on the bed. Angels were on the edge of their seat watching on big screen all this drama going on Earth. God said to Angels around the Throne, ‘Which of you would give his years of life to the other.’ Each angel preferred his own life. God said, ‘There is the man who decided to sell his life in exchange for my beloved Nabi.’ God showed the Angels around the Mighty Throne what Ali and Nabi were saying. God said to the Angels, ‘There are two brothers Ali and Mohamed. Ali is getting ready to die for his brother.’ The Angels were seeing murders making their way to Nabi’s house. Ali was bidding farewell to his master and wished his master well. He was getting ready to sacrifice his life for his brother and master Mohamed. Almighty God said to Gabriel and Michael, ‘Go down on Earth both of you and protect Ali against any harm.’
The Angels knew that they had one watch to reach Solar System and save Ali. They asked Almighty Lord for Soltan so that they can move at one radian. There was no other way they could to get from the edge of the Cosmos to Maka in less than a watch. The Mighest Lord could have stopped the killers immediately. By the might of His knowledge He knew earlier what the killers would do. But that is not how things are done up there. Premptive attack is an act of the scared. Almighty is not weak. He cares. He is not careful. When decisions are made, then the decisions are made. As soon as Gabrial and Micheal received Soltan, the both angels flew across the seven galaxies at speeds unimaginable. They travelled passed the Forbidden Zones, and the Immense Voids like Kaprikonus. They crossed the great Coma and Slon Walls. They flew passed fifty thousand blue and green earths and civilisations. They went into the Leyman forest and then past the Terrible Attractor. Along the way, they picked up some dark matter. They broke the light barrier many folds as they travelled and crossed the heavens heading towards earth.
Hijrat night was a night of grave danger. God’s enemies lurked in the night. They waited for the night to get darker. Ali prepared to give up his soul for his master. Ali risked his life for Nabi in order to allow him to escape the swords of the killers. Nabi said to Ali, ‘O Ali, there is great danger this night.’ Ali asked, ‘If I sleep would you be safe my master.’ Nabi said, ‘O Ali, this night is grave.’ Ali said to Nabi, ‘O Master, would your life be spared if I die.’ Nabi replied, ‘Yes, O Ali, when you lie on my bed I will live. I will be alright when you stay tonight.’ That was all that mattered to the faithful young boy. Ali put his life in danger so that his brother lives. He bade Godspeed to his master. Ali hugged Nabi. The sacred lips of Nabi toughed Ali. He then left the house without being noticed. The killers were waiting for him to sleep. This night Ali saved Nabi. Ali used his master’s chader and lay quietly on the bed. Ali was asleep under his brother’s cloak. Nabi went out of the city and into the night desert. He looked back towards his house. There lay his Ali in shadows of assassins’ swords which were unsheathed and prepared to strike the sleeping Nabi. Nabi wept tears of love. He looked at the night sky asked the God for Ali’s safety. Nabi then headed for Koba. A short time later, he saw the two Angels land on the Mountain on Light. They resized and went into the house of Nabi Mohamed. They covered the vision of assassins with dark dust. The destination of the two Angels was the bed. There lay the desire of their Lord Most Supreme. At Ali’s feet stood Master Michael, and Master Gabriel stood guard near Ali’s head. They praised God in fourth and fifth highest known praises. They glorified God for His Love for young Ali on this night and they sent greeting and blessings on Ali. They said, ‘Wow Ali wow, who can ever be like you. God in Heaven is proud of you and He is marvelling your self-sacrifice before the Angels.’
Both mighty Angels sang the praises of Ali and guarded him all night. On that night God was so happy with Ali that He granted him Divine Wish, the Vala, a gift of love most pure and perfect. This divine decree is the Valaya or guardianship by which the chosen one becomes God’s ruler over the creation. Vala is the divine right trusted to the desired. They keys to the Universe were given to Ali, blessed be he. Ali became the first of Twelve Guardians of Justice appointed by God as Imams, the Leaders for humanity. Their holy names are Ali, Al Hasan, Al Husayn, Al Sajaad, Al Baqir, Al Sadiq, Al Kazim, Al Reza, Al Taqi, Al Naqi, Al Askari, and Al Mahdi. In heavens, all the Angels of the Lord say, ‘God bless Mohamed and his descendents’. Peace be upon Gabriel and Michael.
The Divine Rule and Guardianship, or Valaya was by the Will of God Almighty. It began at Ghadir when God ordered His Nabi to anoint Ali as the first Leader of Justice, the Imam. It was Gabriel who came down from the heavens to tell Nabi that God said it was time to designate Ali the master of the universe. This appointment was to bring balance to the Force of Believers. That day destroyed the hopes of people of the dark side. The year was 632.
God’s Messenger Mohamed left Medina to perform Haj. Except for Valaya, he had already announced God’s commandments to the people. Then Angel Gabriel came down and said:
‘O Mohamed, God sends peace on you, and says: “I have never taken the soul of any messenger until I have completed the Path and established My Proof. Two things still remain which you need to show to the people, the need to do Haj, and the need to recognise Valaya of your successor. I have never left My Earth empty of a Proof; nor will I ever leave it empty. Go, therefore, on Haj with the Bedouins. Show them how to do Haj like you taught them other things”.’
Nabi told his caller and he announced to the people to prepare for the journey to Haj. Over seventy thousand people gathered; the same number as those who went with Musa and accepted Haroon with a pledge. But later they broke their promise and followed Samri and made themselves a cow for worship. Similarly, Nabi took pledge for Ali from the people. But these too broke it later, and followed a Cow and a Samri of their time. They were just like the people who rejected Musa.
Nabi Mohamed performed all the rituals of Haj. At Mina, the Angel Gabriel came down and said:
‘O Mohamed, your Lord sends greeting to you and says: “Time has come for you to come to Me. Therefore, make your last will earlier. Pass your weapon and all the knowledge to your executive and successor, Ali son of Abu Talib, who is My greatest Proof for My creation, and My Logic against them. To him is My Peace. Raise him high as a guiding standard before the people. Remind them of obeying him, and again take the oath from them about My Ambassador, Ali son of Abu Talib, the Master of all believers, men and women. I have never taken the soul of any prophet until I have perfected My Path and completed My favour by establishing Obedience to My Friends and Wrath on My Enemies. Following Ali is the height of My Towheed, the belief in my Path, and completion of My Blessing on My creation. Whoever obeys him has obeyed Me. Whoever denies Ali and accepts the rule of any other person is a Mushrik, a Kafir [an idolator, an infidel]. I will give Hell to those who dislike him and I will give Paradise to those who accept him. Therefore, raise him as a standard because soon I will take you to Myself ”.’
Nabi Mohamed was concerned about the enemies of Ali and their plots, that they would lead many people back to the days of ignorance. Therefore, Nabi asked Gabriel to go back to God and seek guarantee and protection against evil the conspirators. Nabi waited until Gabriel obtained the promise of security from God. Gabriel went and returned, but without God’s promise of protection. Nabi again sent Gabriel back saying, ‘O Gabriel I am worried for Ali. Evil people will not accept him and harm him’. [Gabriel went back to God to ask for what Nabi wished for Ali.]
[In the mean time] Nabi left Maka and headed for Medina. He reached the place Ghadir Khum at ten in the morning. Here Gabriel descended from the heavens and said:
‘O Mohamed, the Almighty God sends His greetings to you, and says: “O Messenger, deliver what your Lord has given to you – about Ali – and if you cannot then you would not have proclaimed His message; and [do not worry] God will protect you against those people”.’
Nabi now called on all the pilgrims to gather together for a sermon. He ordered that a temporary pulpit be constructed for him. Nabi climbed on to the pulpit and stood to deliver the sermon. He said:
"Praise is to God, who is exalted in His unity, near in His uniqueness, sublime in His power, great in His dominance, and knower of all things... There is no other god except Him. Indeed Gabriel came down three times to give me order that I stand in this place and reveal to everyone, black and white, that Ali son of Abu Talib is my brother, my excutive and my successor, and the Imam after me. Next to God and Mohamed, he is your guardian. Know that God has designated him guardian and leader for you. Choose him because God has chosen him, and turn to him, because God has appointed him. He is the Imam from God. O mankind, take Ali, because after I am gone, he is the best person in the world. I am leaving behind for you two important things, the holy book of God, and my pure family. If you hold fast to these two precious things, then you will never go astray. I will be asked about them and you will be asked. I remind you of God regarding my family. I remind you of God regarding my family. I remind you of God regarding my family. Therefore, see how you treat them. These two great things will remain together; and they will never separate from each other till they meet me at the Fountain in Heaven. After me there will be leaders who will take people to the fire. On the day of judgement no one will help them. God and I are both clear of them; they will be in the lowest depths of hell. So too will be their supporters, and their followers. Evil indeed is the home of the arrogant. Some people will usurp and replace it with their own kingdom. May God curse the usurpers who dispossess. Indeed your guardian is God Almighty; and your guardian is Mohamed who is now addressing you; and then, after me, by the command of God your Lord, your guardian and leader is Ali. There is no knowledge except what I taught Ali. He is Imam al Mobeen. God Almighty has more right over my life than I do myself; and I have more right over the lives of believers than they have themselves. And I am master of those whose take Ali as their master. I am their master to whom master is Ali. O God, love those who love him and be an enemy to those who hate him; help those who help him; and leave those who leave him! I have now delivered God’s message to you. I have made you hear. O Lord! I ask you to bear witness that I have announced it. [Pause]. God has just sent down to me this message: ‘This day I have perfected your religion for you, and completed My Blessing on you, and chosen Peace as your Way.' O mankind, the honourable and majestic God has perfected your religion through Ali’s leadership. So, now those of you who does not follow him and the Imams of my lineage, till Judgement Day when deeds are shown are presented to God the honourable and majestic, they are the ones whose deeds shall become fruitless and vain, and they shall live in fire forever. This is Ali, my brother, and executor, and the vessel of my knowledge, and my successor. He is the Captain of the Believers, the Imam of Guidance. Your Nabi is the best Nabi and your Wasi is the best Wasi. I am the warner and Ali is the guide. I am the Nabi and Ali is the Wasi. The last of the Imams will be the awaited Mehdi the Messiah. He will restore God’s Kindgom on Earth and all of our rights. On behalf of the Almighty God, I ask you now to swear the oath of allegiance to Ali. So, fear God and give your pledge of loyalty to Ali, Ameer Al Momineen, and God’s blessings is upon him and on Hasan and Husayn, and to the Imams after them. God will destroy the treacherous, and He will show mercy to the loyal. Say what I have said, and greet Ali as the Captain of the Believers, and say, ‘we hear and we obey, forgive us O Lord, to You is our return’. And say: 'Praise be to God who has guided us to this; because without guidance from God we would never have been guided.’ O mankind, whoever obeys God and His messenger and Ali and the Imams will attain a great victory. O Lord! Forgive the believers, and send Your wrath upon the disbelievers; and Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds."
This is part of the speech of Nabi at Ghadir. Ancients books record a very long three hours sermon. The Holy Family of Nabi celebrated the day of Ghadir as a Divine Blessing on them and on the entire Creation.
The fifth Imam said, “God’s Way [religion] is based on five things: God’s Way [religion] is based on five things: Prayer, Charity, Fasting, Pilgrimage, and Valaya. Nothing was commanded like Valaya was commanded. But people accepted first four and left the Valaya.”
The eighth Imam said, “Example of believers in accepting Valaya of [Ali] the Leader of the Believers on the day of Ghadir is like that of Angels in bowing to Adam; and, the example of disbelievers who left Valaya of the Leader of Believers [Ali] on day of Ghadir is like that of [Satan] Eblees.”
Holy Lady al Zahra said, “After Ghadir, God has left no argument for anyone.”
Her father Master Mohammed said, “Transmitting the Ghadir sermon is the greatest act of Amr bil Maruf [calling people towards good].”
Nabi Mohamed also said, “Day of Ghadir Khumm is the greatest Celebration Festival of believers. It was the day God Almighty ordered me to designate His Zikr, my brother, Ali son of Abu Talib as the standard of believers. Through him they will be guided after me. It was the day God perfected the true Religion and completed His blessing on believers. He is happy that Submission to God be their Way.”
The sixth Imam said, “Fasting on day of Ghadir is greater in value than fasting for the entire age of the world. It is the greatest celebration of God. God has not appointed any Nabi but to celebrate this day as Joy. They are all aware of its holiness. In heavens it is known as the Day of the Covenant. You might think that the honourable and majestic God may have created a day more holy than this. Never. By God. Never. By God. Never. By God.”
The eighth Imam said, “Truly the day of Ghadir is more popular in Heavens than it is on Earth. By God, if mankind really knew the value and greatness of this day, the Angels would come and shake hands with them ten times a day.”
Historians also record that Master Mohamed said Ali is Mowla of all pious people, 'If I am your master than take Ali as your master; O Lord, love those who love Ali and hate those who hate Ali, help those who help Ali and leave those who abandon Ali, and turn the truth to where Ali turns.'
After the sermon of Ghadir, the Angel Gabriel flew back to the heavens very happy and praising Ali, his master. There was a big party thrown across the Cosmos in celebration of Valaya of Ali.

MICHEAL, GABRIEL AND ALI
With the Name of Most High the Kind and Merciful.
Vala is power that the Creator gives to His loyal friends. It is the power of the Light over Darkness. It is given to Peacemakers of the Throne. This is the story of one righteous family that was chosen for the Power of Light on the Night of Power. Light seekers with hearts can feel the force.

They went into the Leyman forest and then past the Terrible Attractor. Along the way, they picked up some dark matter. They broke the light barrier many folds as they travelled and crossed the heavens heading towards earth.
Hijrat night was a night of grave danger. God’s enemies lurked in the night. They waited for the night to get darker. Ali prepared to give up his soul for his master. Ali risked his life for Nabi in order to allow him to escape the swords of the killers. Nabi said to Ali, ‘O Ali, there is great danger this night.’ Ali asked, ‘If I sleep would you be safe my master.’ Nabi said, ‘O Ali, this night is grave.’ Ali said to Nabi, ‘O Master, would your life be spared if I die.’ Nabi replied, ‘Yes, O Ali, when you lie on my bed I will live.

Two things still remain which you need to show to the people, the need to do Haj, and the need to recognise Valaya of your successor. I have never left My Earth empty of a Proof; nor will I ever leave it empty. Go, therefore, on Haj with the Bedouins. Show them how to do Haj like you taught them other things”.’
Nabi told his caller and he announced to the people to prepare for the journey to Haj. Over seventy thousand people gathered; the same number as those who went with Musa and accepted Haroon with a pledge.

Nabi Mohamed was concerned about the enemies of Ali and their plots, that they would lead many people back to the days of ignorance. Therefore, Nabi asked Gabriel to go back to God and seek guarantee and protection against evil the conspirators. Nabi waited until Gabriel obtained the promise of security from God. Gabriel went and returned, but without God’s promise of protection. Nabi again sent Gabriel back saying, ‘O Gabriel I am worried for Ali. Evil people will not accept him and harm him’. [Gabriel went back to God to ask for what Nabi wished for Ali.]
[In the mean time] Nabi left Maka and headed for Medina. He reached the place Ghadir Khum at ten in the morning. Here Gabriel descended from the heavens and said:
‘O Mohamed, the Almighty God sends His greetings to you, and says: “O Messenger, deliver what your Lord has given to you – about Ali – and if you cannot then you would not have proclaimed His message; and [do not worry] God will protect you against those people”.’
Nabi now called on all the pilgrims to gather together for a sermon. He ordered that a temporary pulpit be constructed for him. Nabi climbed on to the pulpit and stood to deliver the sermon. He said:
"Praise is to God, who is exalted in His unity, near in His uniqueness, sublime in His power, great in His dominance, and knower of all things... There is no other god except Him. Indeed Gabriel came down three times to give me order that I stand in this place and reveal to everyone, black and white, that Ali son of Abu Talib is my brother, my excutive and my successor, and the Imam after me. Next to God and Mohamed, he is your guardian. Know that God has designated him guardian and leader for you. Choose him because God has chosen him, and turn to him, because God has appointed him. He is the Imam from God. O mankind, take Ali, because after I am gone, he is the best person in the world. I am leaving behind for you two important things, the holy book of God, and my pure family. If you hold fast to these two precious things, then you will never go astray. I will be asked about them and you will be asked. I remind you of God regarding my family. I remind you of God regarding my family. I remind you of God regarding my family. Therefore, see how you treat them. These two great things will remain together; and they will never separate from each other till they meet me at the Fountain in Heaven. After me there will be leaders who will take people to the fire. On the day of judgement no one will help them. God and I are both clear of them; they will be in the lowest depths of hell. So too will be their supporters, and their followers. Evil indeed is the home of the arrogant. Some people will usurp and replace it with their own kingdom. May God curse the usurpers who dispossess. Indeed your guardian is God Almighty; and your guardian is Mohamed who is now addressing you; and then, after me, by the command of God your Lord, your guardian and leader is Ali. There is no knowledge except what I taught Ali. He is Imam al Mobeen. God Almighty has more right over my life than I do myself; and I have more right over the lives of believers than they have themselves. And I am master of those whose take Ali as their master. I am their master to whom master is Ali. O God, love those who love him and be an enemy to those who hate him; help those who help him; and leave those who leave him! I have now delivered God’s message to you. I have made you hear. O Lord! I ask you to bear witness that I have announced it. [Pause]. God has just sent down to me this message: ‘This day I have perfected your religion for you, and completed My Blessing on you, and chosen Peace as your Way.' O mankind, the honourable and majestic God has perfected your religion through Ali’s leadership. So, now those of you who does not follow him and the Imams of my lineage, till Judgement Day when deeds are shown are presented to God the honourable and majestic, they are the ones whose deeds shall become fruitless and vain, and they shall live in fire forever. This is Ali, my brother, and executor, and the vessel of my knowledge, and my successor. He is the Captain of the Believers, the Imam of Guidance. Your Nabi is the best Nabi and your Wasi is the best Wasi. I am the warner and Ali is the guide. I am the Nabi and Ali is the Wasi. The last of the Imams will be the awaited Mehdi the Messiah. He will restore God’s Kindgom on Earth and all of our rights. On behalf of the Almighty God, I ask you now to swear the oath of allegiance to Ali. So, fear God and give your pledge of loyalty to Ali, Ameer Al Momineen, and God’s blessings is upon him and on Hasan and Husayn, and to the Imams after them. God will destroy the treacherous, and He will show mercy to the loyal. Say what I have said, and greet Ali as the Captain of the Believers, and say, ‘we hear and we obey, forgive us O Lord, to You is our return’. And say: 'Praise be to God who has guided us to this; because without guidance from God we would never have been guided.’ O mankind, whoever obeys God and His messenger and Ali and the Imams will attain a great victory. O Lord! Forgive the believers, and send Your wrath upon the disbelievers; and Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds."
This is part of the speech of Nabi at Ghadir. Ancients books record a very long three hours sermon. The Holy Family of Nabi celebrated the day of Ghadir as a Divine Blessing on them and on the entire Creation.
The fifth Imam said, “God’s Way [religion] is based on five things: God’s Way [religion] is based on five things: Prayer, Charity, Fasting, Pilgrimage, and Valaya. Nothing was commanded like Valaya was commanded. But people accepted first four and left the Valaya.”
The eighth Imam said, “Example of believers in accepting Valaya of [Ali] the Leader of the Believers on the day of Ghadir is like that of Angels in bowing to Adam; and, the example of disbelievers who left Valaya of the Leader of Believers [Ali] on day of Ghadir is like that of [Satan] Eblees.”
Holy Lady al Zahra said, “After Ghadir, God has left no argument for anyone.”
Her father Master Mohammed said, “Transmitting the Ghadir sermon is the greatest act of Amr bil Maruf [calling people towards good].”
Nabi Mohamed also said, “Day of Ghadir Khumm is the greatest Celebration Festival of believers. It was the day God Almighty ordered me to designate His Zikr, my brother, Ali son of Abu Talib as the standard of believers. Through him they will be guided after me. It was the day God perfected the true Religion and completed His blessing on believers. He is happy that Submission to God be their Way.”
The sixth Imam said, “Fasting on day of Ghadir is greater in value than fasting for the entire age of the world. It is the greatest celebration of God. God has not appointed any Nabi but to celebrate this day as Joy. They are all aware of its holiness. In heavens it is known as the Day of the Covenant. You might think that the honourable and majestic God may have created a day more holy than this. Never. By God. Never. By God. Never. By God.”
The eighth Imam said, “Truly the day of Ghadir is more popular in Heavens than it is on Earth. By God, if mankind really knew the value and greatness of this day, the Angels would come and shake hands with them ten times a day.”
Historians also record that Master Mohamed said Ali is Mowla of all pious people, 'If I am your master than take Ali as your master; O Lord, love those who love Ali and hate those who hate Ali, help those who help Ali and leave those who abandon Ali, and turn the truth to where Ali turns.'
After the sermon of Ghadir, the Angel Gabriel flew back to the heavens very happy and praising Ali, his master. There was a big party thrown across the Cosmos in celebration of Valaya of Ali.
