حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن أحمد بن الوليد - رضي الله عنه - قال: حدثنا الحسين ابن الحسن أبان، عن الحسين بن سعيد، عن النضر بن سويد، عن ابن سنان، عن أبي بصير، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام، قال: أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام في خطبته : أنا الهادي، أنا المهتدي، وأنا أبو اليتامى والمساكين، وزوج الأرامل، وأنا ملجأ كل ضعيف، ومأمن كل خائف، وأنا قائد المؤمنين [إلى الجنة]، وأنا حبل الله المتين، وأنا عروة الله الوثقى، وكلمة الله التقوى، وأنا عين الله، ولسانه الصادق، ويده، وأنا جنب الله الذي يقول: " أن تقول نفس يا حسرتي على ما فرطت في جنب الله " وأنا يد الله المبسوطة على عباده بالرحمة والمغفرة، وأنا باب حطة من عرفني وعرف حقي فقد عرف ربه لأني وصي نبيه في أرضه وحجته على خلقه، لا ينكر هذا إلا راد على الله وعلى رسوله.
14. We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan bin Ahmad bin Waleed, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Hussain bin Hasan bin Aban, from Hussain bin Sa’eed, from Nadr bin Suwayd, from Ibn Sinan, from Abu Naseer, from Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, that he said: The Commander of the Believers, peace be upon him, said in his speech: I am the Guide, I am the Guided, and I am the father of the orphans and the needy and the husband of the widows, and I am the refuge of every weak and the secure place of every fearful, and I am the leader of the believers into Paradise, and I am the Solid Rope of Allah, and I am the Strong Loop of Allah and the Godfearing Word of Allah, and I am the Eye of Allah and His Truthful Tongue and His Hand, and I am the Regard of Allah, about which He says: «For a soul to say: How heartbroken am I for how undutiful I was towards the Regard of Allah» (39:56). And I am the Hand of Allah that is extended towards His servants with mercy and forgiveness, and I am the Door of Humility. The one who knows me and knows my right, then he has known his Lord, because I am the Successor of His Prophet in His earth and His Proof upon His creation; none deny this except for one who rejects Allah and His Messenger.
