24. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Nadr ibn Shu‘ayb from Khalid ibn Ma’dd from Muhammad ibn al-Fudayl from al-Thumali from abu Ja‘far who has said the following.

“Allah sent revelation to His prophet in which He has said, “Follow devotedly that which is revealed to you. You are certainly on the right path.” (43:43) The Imam said, “It is just as saying, ‘You have acknowledged the Leadership with Divine Authority of Ali and Ali is on the right path.”
