Tibrani in book Al-Awsat quotes from Jabir Ibne Abdullah that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) addressed thus: “O People! One who hates us Ahle Bayt will be gathered alongwith the Jews by Allah on the Day of Qiyamat.”1

In the book Al-Awsat, Tibrani narrates from Abdullah ibne Jafar that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) says: “O the sons of Hashim! I pray to Allah that you may always be generous and merciful. And I pray to Him that He may guide the misguided ones from you, and bestow tranquility upon the fearful ones, and satiate the hungry ones. By the one who controls my life none can achieve tranquility except that he loves you and loves you for the sake of me. And wishes that I will intercede for him to be allowed to enter Paradise. But all of the sons of Abdul Muttalib are not like this.”2

Ibn Ali Sheba and Musdad in their respective Musnads, and Al-Hakim Al-Tirmizi in the book Nawadirul Usool and Abu Yaala and Tibrani relate from Salmah bin Alkao that the Messenger of Allah said: “The stars are the safety for the inhabitants of the sky and my Ahlul Bayt are the safety for my Ummah.”3

Al-Bazzaz narrates from Abu Hurayra that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) remarked: “Surely I leave behind me amongst you two things, you will not deviate if you follow them. (They are) The book of Allah and my relatives. And they will not separate till they reach me at the pool (Hauz Kauthar).4

Al-Bazzaz quotes Ali (a.s.) that the Prophet of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: “Certainly I am to die shortly! And I leave among you two weighty things. The book of Allah and my Ahle Bayt (a.s.). If you follow them you will not go astray.”5

Al-Bazzaz narrates through Abdullah ibne Zubair that the Holy Prophet mentioned: “The simile of Ahle Bayt is like that of the Ark of Noah (a.s.). One who boards it, is saved and those who leave it are drowned.”6
