Hasan bin Hamza narrated from ALI bin Mohammad bin Qutaibah, from Faz’l bin Shazan, from Mohammad bin Ziyad, from Jameel bin Salih, from JAAFAR BIN MOHAMMAD (ASWS), from his father, from ALI bin HUSAIN (ASWS), from HUSAIN bin ALI (ASWS) , who said:
The MESSENGER OF ALLAH (SWT) said:
FATEMA (SAWS) is the blood inside my heart; her sons are the fruits of my heart; her husband is my eyesight; the IMAMS (ASWS) from her sons are my Lord’s secretaries, and they are His extended rope between Him and His creatures.
Those who hold onto this rope will survive and those who do not will fall.
