CHARACTERISTIC OF THE IMAMS OF THE AHLUL BAYT Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Saeed al-Kufi narrated from Ali bin al-Hasan bin Faddhal from His father that Abu al-Hasan Ali bin Musa ar Ridha (a) said: The Imams carries definite characteristics. He is the most knowledgeable, the wisest, the most God-fearing, the most clement, the most courageous, the most open-handed, and the best worshipper. He is born circumcised and purified. He can see that which behind him in the same way as he sees that which is in front of him. He has no shadow. When he first falls on the earth - from his mother womb-, he falls on his palms reciting the two shahadas - creed of islam: I declare there is no god but Allah and Mohammed is the messenger of Allah - loudly. He does not encounter wet dreams. His eyes may sleep but his heart never sleeps. He is addressed from the heavens. The armor of the prophet (s) fits him. His urination and feces can not be seen because Allah has ordered the earth to swallow that whichever is discharged from him. His smell is more fragrant than musk. He enjoys more authority over the believers than themselves. He is more compassionate with the believers than their fathers and mothers. He is the most modest for Allah, the best performer of Allahs orders and the best abstinent from the matters that Allah forbids. His prayer is responded to the degree that if he invokes Allah against a rock, it will be rent asunder. He possesses the weapon of he Prophet (s) and the sword of the Thulfeqar. He possesses al-Jamia (the comprehensive), which is a record of seventy-cubit long that contains all the requirements of people. He also possesses the Major Cipher, which is written on skin of a goat, and the Minor Cipher, which is written on a ski of ram. They contain the whole body of sciences and information, including the rulings of the compensation of the defect that occurs due to the retaliation of a scratch and the rulings of one lash, half a lash, and one third of a lash. Finally, the Imam possesses the book of Fatima (a). 186 References: Men La Yahdhuruh al-Faqih; 4:418 H.5914 al-Khissal;527-8 H.1 Meaani al-Akhbar; 102 H.4 Uyounu Akhbar ir-Radha; 1:212 H.1 Ibn Shahrashoubs al-Manaqib; 1:253 Keshf ul-Ghumma; 2:290 As-Sirat ul-Mustaqeem; 1:108 al-Kharij wa al-Jaraih; 569 Alihtijaj; 4366 Bihar ul-Anwar; 25:116 H.1.
