Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Ibn Raib, from Bukeyr Bin Ayn who said, ‘Abu Ja’far asws was saying: ‘Allah azwj Took the Covenant of our asws Shias with the Wilayah for us asws , and they were particles on the day the Covenant was Taken upon the particles with the acknowledgment to Him azwj with the Lordship, and to Muhammad saww with the Prophet-hood. And Allah azwj Majestic and Mighty Presented to Muhammad saww , his saww community in the clay, and they were shadows. And He azwj Created them from the lay from which Adam as was created, and Allah azwj Created the spirits of our asws Shias before their bodies, by two thousand years, and presented them unto him saww . And He azwj Introduced them to Rasool-Allah saww , and Introduced them to Ali asws . And we asws recognise them in the tone of their speech’.
