114 - عِلمُ الإمامِ
114. The Knowledge of The Imam
346.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام : إنّ علِيّاً كانَ عالِماً والعلمُ يُتوارَثُ ، ولَن يَهْلِكَ عالِمٌ إلّا بَقِيَ مِن بَعدِهِ مَن يَعلَمُ عِلمَهُ أو ما شاءَ اللَّهُ .1
346.Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, 'Verily Ali was knowledgeable and knowledge is something that is inherited. In fact, no sooner does a knowledgeable man die than there remains after him one who knows his knowledge or whatever Allah wishes.' 2
347.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام : واللَّهِ، إنّي لَأعلَمُ كتابَ اللَّهِ مِن أوّلِهِ إلى آخِرهِ كأنّهُ في كَفِّي ، فيهِ خَبَرُ السّماءِ وخَبرُ الأرضِ ، وخَبرُ ما كانَ وخَبرُ ما هو كائنٌ ، قالَ اللَّهُ عزّ وجلّ : فيهِ تِبيانُ كلِّ شيءٍ3 . 4
347.Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, 'By Allah, certainly I know the Book of Allah from its beginning to its end, as if it is in my palm. In it is contained the information about the heavens and the earth, about all that existed and all that is to be. Allah, Mighty and Exalted, has said: "In it is clarification of all things." 56
348.الإمامُ الرِّضا عليه السلام : إنّ العبدَ إذا اختارَهُ اللَّهُ عزّ وجلّ لاُمورِ عبادِهِ شَرحَ صَدرَهُ لذلكَ ، وأودَعَ قلبَهُ يَنابِيعَ الحِكمةِ، وألْهَمهُ العِلمَ إلهاماً ، فلَم يَعْيَ بعدَهُ بجوابٍ ولا يَحيرُ فيهِ عنِ الصّوابِ .7
348.Imam al-Rida (AS) said, 'Whenever Allah selects a person to manage the affairs of His creation, He opens his breast [endows him with tolerance] for that purpose, and he makes springs of wisdom flow in his heart, and bestows knowledge to him by way of inspiration, after which he never again lacks the capacity to answer, nor is confused from finding the right way out.' 8
