عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عليه السلام) قَالَ قَالَ يَا جَابِرُ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ جَمَعَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ لِفَصْلِ الْخِطَابِ دُعِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) وَ دُعِيَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عليه السلام) فَيُكْسَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) حُلَّةً خَضْرَاءَ تُضِي‏ءُ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَشْرِقِ وَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَ يُكْسَى عَلِيٌّ (عليه السلام) مِثْلَهَا وَ يُكْسَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) حُلَّةً وَرْدِيَّةً يُضِي‏ءُ لَهَا مَا بَيْنَ الْمَشْرِقِ وَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَ يُكْسَى عَلِيٌّ (عليه السلام) مِثْلَهَا ثُمَّ يَصْعَدَانِ عِنْدَهَا ثُمَّ يُدْعَى بِنَا فَيُدْفَعُ إِلَيْنَا حِسَابُ النَّاسِ فَنَحْنُ وَ اللَّهِ نُدْخِلُ أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ الْجَنَّةَ وَ أَهْلَ النَّارِ النَّارَ ثُمَّ يُدْعَى بِالنَّبِيِّينَ (عليهم السلام) فَيُقَامُونَ صَفَّيْنِ عِنْدَ عَرْشِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ حَتَّى نَفْرُغَ مِنْ حِسَابِ النَّاسِ فَإِذَا دَخَلَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ الْجَنَّةَ وَ أَهْلُ النَّارِ النَّارَ بَعَثَ رَبُّ الْعِزَّةِ عَلِيّاً (عليه السلام) فَأَنْزَلَهُمْ مَنَازِلَهُمْ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَ زَوَّجَهُمْ فَعَلِيٌّ وَ اللَّهِ الَّذِي يُزَوِّجُ أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ مَا ذَاكَ إِلَى أَحَدٍ غَيْرِهِ كَرَامَةً مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ ذِكْرُهُ وَ فَضْلًا فَضَّلَهُ اللَّهُ بِهِ وَ مَنَّ بِهِ عَلَيْهِ وَ هُوَ وَ اللَّهِ يُدْخِلُ أَهْلَ النَّارِ النَّارَ وَ هُوَ الَّذِي يُغْلِقُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ إِذَا دَخَلُوا فِيهَا أَبْوَابَهَا لِأَنَّ أَبْوَابَ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَيْهِ وَ أَبْوَابَ النَّارِ إِلَيْهِ.


154. A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir, who has narrated the following: Abu Ja’far (a.s) having said: ‘O Jabir! When it will be the Day of Judgement Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic will Gather the former ones and the later ones for the Decisive Speech (Fasl Al-Khitaab). The Rasool Allah ﷺ will be Called, and Amir-ul-Momineen (a.s) will be Called. So the Rasool Allah ﷺ would be clothed in a green garment which would illuminate what is in between the east and the west, and Ali (a.s) would be clothed with the like of it. And the Rasool Allah ﷺ would be clothed in a rosy garment which would illuminate what is in between the east and the west, and Ali (a.s) would be clothed with the like of it. Then they (a.s) would both ascend wearing these. Then we (a.s) will be Called, and the Accounting of the people would be handed over to us (a.s). By Allah (azwj), we (a.s) are the ones who (a.s) would be making the people of the Paradise enter into the Paradise and the people of the Fire into the Fire. Then the Prophets (a.s) would be Called, and they will be standing in two rows in front of the Throne of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic until we (a.s) are free from the Accounting of the people. So when the people of the Paradise enter the Paradise, and the people of the Fire enter the Fire, the Lord (azwj) of the Honour will Send Ali (a.s) who would descend them to their places in the Paradise and get them married, for Ali (a.s), by Allah (azwj), is the one who (a.s) will perform the marriages of the people of the Paradise in the Paradise. And that Prestige is not for anyone other than him (a.s) from Allah (azwj) and a Preference which Allah (azwj) has Preferred him (a.s) by and Bestowed upon him (a.s). By Allah (azwj), he (a.s) is the one who (a.s) will make enter the people of the Fire into the Fire, and he (a.s) is the one who (a.s) will close the Doors of the Paradise when the people of the Paradise have entered into it, because the Doors of the Paradise are under his (a.s) control and the Doors of the Fire are under his (a.s) control’.
