Surah Nisa Verse 69

 

وَمَن يُطِعِ اللّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ فَأُوْلَـئِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللّهُ عَلَيْهِم مِّنَ النَّبِيِّينَ
وَالصِّدِّيقِينَ وَالشُّهَدَاء وَالصَّالِحِينَ وَحَسُنَ أُولَـئِكَ رَفِيقًا

“And all who obey Allah and the Messenger are with those upon whom Allah has bestowed favours, of the prophets, and the truthful ones, and the martyrs, and the righteous; and excellent are these companions!”

 

Imam Sadiq (as) said, “The prophets” in this verse refer to the Messenger of Allah (sawa); “the truthful ones” refer to Ali bin Abi Talib (as); “the martyrs”are Hasan and Husain (as); “the righteous” are the Imams (as); and the “excellent” companion is the Qaem (as) (Imam Mahdi) of the family of the Prophet (sawa).
