2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn 'Isa from his father from ‘Abdallah ibn al-Mughirah from ibn Muskan from ‘Abd al-Rahim ibn Ruh al-Qasir from Abu Ja‘far who has said the following about the words of Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High. “The Prophet has more authority over the believers than themselves. His wives are their mothers. The relatives are closer to each other, according to the Book of God, than the believers and the emigrants. However, you may show kindness to your guardians. This also is written in the Book.” (33:6)

About who this verse has come? He then said, “It came about the governance (Leadership with Divine Authority). This verse continued to apply to the lineage of al-Husayn after him. We, thus, are of a priority to governance (Leadership with Divine Authority) and to the Messenger of Allah than the believers of immigrants and the Ansar.” The narrator has said that then he asked the Imam , “Do the sons of Ja‘far have any share in it?” The Imam said,” No, they do not have any share in it.” I asked, “Do the sons of al-‘Abbass have any share in it?” He said, “No, they do not have any share in it.” I counted for him the folks from the descendants of ‘Abd al-Muttalib and in answer to all he would say, “No.” The narrator has said that then he forgot the sons of al-Hassan . I went to see at another time and asked him, “Do the sons of al-Hassan have any share in it?” He replied, “No, I swear by Allah, O ‘Abd al-Rahim, no one related to Muhammad has any share in it except us.”
