Hadith 31-211

حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّد بنُ عَلِىِّ ماجِيلوَيْه؛ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِىِّ بْنِ إِبراهِيمِ بْنِ هاشِمٍ، وَالحُسَينِ بنِ إِبْراهيمِ بْنِ ناتانَةَ - رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ - قالُوا: حَدَّثَنا عَلِىُّ بْنُ إِبراهِيمِ بْنِ هاشِمٍ، عَنْ أَبيهِ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ الَتمِيميُّ قالَ: حَدَّثَني سَيِّدي عَلِىِّ بْنِ مُوسَى الرِّضا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ عَنْ أَبيهِ، عَنْ آبائِهِ، عَنْ عَلِيِ‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ، عَنْ النَّبِيّ‏ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ أَنَّهُ قالَ: مَن سَرَّهُ أَن يَنْظُرُ إِلى القَضيبِ الياقُوتِ الأَحمَرِ الَّذِي غَرَسَهُ اللَّه بِيَدِهِ [وَيَكُونَ مُستَمسِكاً بِهِ‏] فَليَتَوَلَّ عَلِيّاً وَالأَئِمَّةِ مِن وُلْدِه فَإِنَّهُم خِيرَةُ اللَّه عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَصَفوَتُهُ، وَهُمُ المَعْصُومُونَ مِن كُلِّ ذَنبٍ وَخَطيئَةٍ.

Muhammad ibn Ali Majilawayh, Ahmad ibn Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Hashem and Al-Husayn ibn Ibrahim ibn Tatana - may God be pleased with them - narrated that Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Hashem quoted on the authority of his father, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Ali al-Tamimi, ‘My Master Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) narrated that his father (a.s.) quoted on the authority of his forefathers (a.s.), on the authority of Ali (a.s.) that the Prophet (S) said, “Whoever likes to grab the stem of a red hyacinth [72] that God has planted Himself should wholeheartedly seek the Mastery of Ali (a.s.) and the Immaculate Leaders from his progeny, as they are the ones chosen by the Honorable the Exalted God. They are purified of all sins and faults.”
