Happy Eid al-Ghadir
Eid al-Ghadir is the Eid of pontificate.
After
the last pilgrimage that performed by Prophet Muhammad along with the
Muslims, when returning from Mecca, a place called Ghadir Khom, from
God, comes to the Prophet, the verse of the pontificate
_(یَا
أَیُّهَا الرَّسُولُ بَلِّغْ مَا أُنْزِلَ إِلَیْکَ مِنْ رَبِّکَ ۖ وَإِنْ
لَمْ تَفْعَلْ فَمَا بَلَّغْتَ رِسَالَتَهُ ۚ وَاللَّهُ یَعْصِمُکَ مِنَ
النَّاسِ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا یَهْدِی الْقَوْمَ الْکَافِرِین)
_
(O Messenger, announce that which has been revealed to you from your
Lord, and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message. And
Allah will protect you from the people. Indeed, Allah does not guide the
disbelieving people). God tells the Prophet to choose his successor.
Prophet Mohammad in Ghadir Khom introduces Imam Ali (as) as his
successor to all Muslims.
Prophet Mohammad: Allah
is my Master and I am the Master of the believers. Of whomsoever I had
been Master, Ali here is to be his Master. O Allah, be a supporter of
whoever supports him (Ali) and an enemy of whoever opposes him (Ali). O
people! Truth is always with Ali and Ali is with the truth.
For
the people of world this blessing has arrived/ O Shias! Spread the news
to all that Eid of Wilayat has arrived/ Tonight the whole world has
lightened with the light of Ali (as)/ O Shias; O shias; The knots of
our hearts have untied.
