Ghadir feast in light of Ahadith
By: Ghadir K. Safavi
A dignified feast
Hazrat Imam Ali ibn-e-Abi Talib (as) said: The Ghadir feast is a day
which dignity is great. On this day, blessings fell from heaven; the
ranks of those who were eligible to rise was enhanced; God's proofs
became clear and manifest; today was the day when religion was
perfected; a day fit to take the oath of allegiance.
A great feast
Imam Jafar bin Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) was asked if there is any Eid
other than 'Friday', 'Qurban', & 'Fitr'? The Imam peace be on him
replied: "Yes, the greatest one! It is a day in which the Prophet
(saww) appointed Amir-ul-Momineen Hazrat Ali ibn-e-Abi Talib (as) as
his successor & said: 'Whoever I am his master, then Ali is his
master.'"
A felicitous feast
Hazrat Imam Jafar bin Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: By God if people
knew the real virtue of the Ghadir Khum feast, the angels would shake
hand with them ten times a day and what the God would grant to them
could not be counted.
A refulgent feast
Hazrat Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar bin Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: Ghadir
Khum feast in the midst of Eid-ul-Fitr, Eid-ul-Azha and Friday is like
the moon amid the stars.
One of the four divine feasts
Imam Jafar bin Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: On the Day of
Resurrection, four days will be summoned before God like the bride who
hurries into the wedding chamber. These are Eid-ul-Fitr, Eid-ul-Adha,
Friday and Ghadir Khum feast.
A heavenly feast
Hazrat Imam Ali bin Mousa Al-Reza (as) said: My father told me from
his father Hazrat Imam Jafar bin Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) that the
Ghadir feast is much more famous in heaven than on Earth.

"Knowledge is
better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
