بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم الحمد الله رب العالمين، وصلى الله على محمد وآله الطاهرين. الحمد الله الواحد الأحد الفرد الصمد الحي القادر العليم الحكيم، تقدس و تعالى عن صفة المخلوقين، ذي الجلال والاكرام، والافضال والانعام، والمشيئة النافذة والإرادة الكاملة، ليس كمثله شئ، وهو السميع البصير، لا تدركه الابصار، وهو يدرك الابصار، وهو اللطيف الخبير. وأشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له، خالق كل شئ، ومالك كل شئ وجاعل كل شئ، ومحدث كل شئ، ورب كل شئ، وأنه يقضي بالحق، ويعدل في الحكم، ويحكم بالقسط، ويأمر بالعدل والاحسان، وإيتاء ذي القربى، وينهى عن الفحشاء والمنكر والبغي، ولا يكلف نفسا إلا وسعها، ولا يحملها فوق طاقتها، وله الحجة البالغة، ولو شاء لهدى الناس أجمعين، يدعو إلى دار السلام، ويهدى من يشاء إلى صراط مستقيم. لا يعجل بالعقوبة ولا يعذب إلا بعد إيضاح الحجة وتقديم الآيات والنذارة، لم يستعبد عباده بما لم يبينه لهم، ولم يأمرهم إطاعة من لم ينصبه لهم، ولم يكلهم إلى أنفسهم واختيارهم وآرائهم بطاعته واختراعهم في خلافته، تعالى الله عن ذلك علوا كبيرا. وأشهد أن محمدا صلى الله عليه وآله عبده ورسوله وأمينه، وأنه بلغ عن ربه، ودعا إلى سبيله بالحكمة والموعظة الحسنة، وعمل بالكتاب وأمر باتباعه، وأوصى بالتمسك به وبعترته الأئمة بعده صلوات الله عليهم، وإنهما لن يفترقا حتى يردا عليه حوضه، وإن اعتصام المسلمين بهما على المحجة الواضحة، والطريقة المستقيمة، والحنيفية البيضاء التي ليلها كنهارها، وباطنها كظاهرها، ولم يدع أمته في شبهة ولا عمى من أمره، ولم يدخر عنهم دلالة ولا نصيحة ولا هداية، ولم يدع برهانا ولا حجة إلا أوضح سبيلها وأقام لهم دليلها لئلا يكون للناس على الله حجة بعد الرسل، وليهلك من هلك عن بينة ويحيى من حي عن بينة. وأشهد أنه ليس بمؤمن ولا مؤمنة إذا قضى الله ورسوله أمرا أن يكون لهم الخيرة من أمرهم، وأن الله يخلق من يشاء ويختار، وأنهم لا يؤمنون حتى يحكموه فيما شجر بينهم، ثم لا يجدوا في أنفسهم حرجا مما قضاه ويسلموا تسليما، وإن من حرم حلالا ومن حلل حراما، أو غير سنة، أو نقص فريضة، أو بدل شريعة، أو أحدث بدعة يريد أن يتبع عليها ويصرف وجوه الناس إليها فقد أقام نفسه لله شريكا، ومن أطاعه فقد ادعى مع الله ربا، وباء بغضب من الله ومأواه النار وبئس مثوى الظالمين، وحبط عمله وهو في الآخرة من الخاسرين. وصلى الله على محمد وآله الطاهرين.
In the Name of Allah the Beneficent the Merciful. Praise be to Allah the Lord of the Worlds and may Allah bless Muhammad and his Purified Progeny. All the praise is for that God, Who is one, unique and single. He is Needless, Ever-living, All-powerful, All-knowing and Wise. He is pure from the traits of the creatures. He is most high and most exalted. He is glorious and honored, and perfect and of elevated status. He is One with a firm resolve and a perfect intention. Nothing is like Him. And He is all-hearing and all-Seeing. The eyes are unable to perceive Him and He perceives all vision. And He is Kind and All-aware. And I testify that there is no god except Allah. He is alone and without a partner. He is the Creator of everything, Master of everything, appointer of everything, initiator of everything and the Lord of everything. He judges with truth and he is equitable in judging and commands justice. He commands justice, goodness and fulfillment of the rights of the relatives and he prohibits indecency, evil and injustice. He does not lay on any soul a burden except to the extent of its ability and He is having the final argument. If He wills, He can guide all the people. He calls the people to the abode of peace (Dar as-Salaam) and guides whoever He likes to the right path. He does not make haste in punishing and He does not punish without clarifying proof and evidence and without giving His signs and warnings. He does not ask His servants to obey Him in matters He has not explained to them and He does not command them to obey one He has not appointed for obedience. And with regard to His obedience, He does not leave the people to their own choice and He does not allow them innovation in the matter of His vicegerency. His being is much higher than all this. And I testify that Muhammad (sw) is His servant and trustworthy messenger. And He performed the duty of propagation on behalf of his Lord as it deserved. And he called to His path with wisdom and a good exhortation. And he acted on the Book and commanded its obedience. And along with it and after him he willed the people to remain attached to the Purified Imams (as). And he stressed that the two shall never separate from each other till they meet him at the Pool of Kauthar. And the attachment of Muslims to both of them is in accordance with clear evidence, based on the straight path and an illuminated faith. Whose night is like the day and the internal is like the external. And he did not miss out any argument or proof to convince the Muslims so that no excuse remains for them. So that whoever goes to perdition should do so after seeing clear evidence and those who get life should also be after obvious proof. And I testify that indeed no one can become a believer if in some matter Allah and His Messenger command something but he follows his own choice. And indeed Allah creates what He likes and He chooses whatever He likes. And they can never become faithful until they consider the Prophet as a judge in their disputes and after that they follow the decision of the Prophet with utmost sincerity. And that they should submit to the Prophet’s decision with absolute humility. And indeed one who makes unlawful a lawful act or vice versa or he changes a prophetic practice or reduces an obligatory ordinance or alters a command of the Shariah or creates an innovation so that he may be followed and that people may become attracted to him; then he has indeed considered himself a partner to the Almighty Allah and whoever obeys such a person has in fact claimed existence of a god other than the Almighty Allah and he becomes eligible for divine punishment and his abode is the fire (of Hell) and the abode of the unjust is indeed very bad. His deeds are wasted and in the Hereafter he shall be from the losers. And benedictions be upon Muhammad and his Purified Progeny.
