He said: Al-Mudhaffar b. Muhammad al-Warraq reported to me from Abu ALI Muhammad b. Hammam, who reported from Abu Saeed al-Hasan b. Zakariyya al- Basri, who reported from Umar b. al-Mukhtar, who reported from Abu Muhammad al- Barsi, from al-Nadhr b. Suwaid, from Abdullah b. Maskan, from Abu Baseer, from ABU JA'FAR MUHAMMAD AL-BAQIR (ASWS), from his forefathers, peace be upon them, that:
The PROPHET (SAWW), peace be upon him and his progeny said: "How will it be for you O ALI (ASWS), when you will stand on the brim of hell fire, and the bridge (Sirat) will be laid, and the people will be told: 'Cross the bridge.' And you will tell the hell fire: 'This is for me, and this is for you!' So ALI (ASWS) said: "O MESSENGER (SAWW) of ALLAH (SWT) , who will be those with me?" He said: "They are your Shias, with you wherever you will be."
