Imams(as) knowledge

Imams(as) inherited the Knowledge from The Holy Prophet(saw)


Ahmad ibn Idris has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Shu‘ayb al-Haddad from Durays al-Kunasi who has said the following. “I was in the presence of abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) and abu Basir also was there. The Imams (a.s.) said, “David inherited the knowledge of the prophets. Solomon inherited David. Prophet Muhammad (s.a.) inherited Solomon and we inherited Muhammad (s.a.). With us are the pages of Abraham and the tablets of Moses.” Abu Basir then said, “This is the knowledge.” The Imams (a.s.) said, “O abu Muhammad, this is not the knowledge. The knowledge is what happens in the nights and in the days, day after day and hour after hour.”

Imams(as) know whats in the heavens and earth



A number of our people has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Sinan from Yunus ibn Ya‘qub from al-Harith ibn al-Mughirah and a group of our people, among whom were ‘Abd al-A‘la’, abu ‘Ubaydah and ‘Abdallah ibn Bishr al-Khath‘ami, who have said that they heard abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) say the following. “I certainly know what is the heavens and what is in the earth. I know what is in paradise and what is the fire. I know what was there and what will be there.” The narrator has said that the Imam (a.s.) paused for a while and found that what he had just said was much heavy for the audience then he (a.s.) said, “I learned all of it from the book of Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High. Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, has said, “In it there is the clarification of all things.”

Imam Jafar As-Sadiq (as)  said: ‘By Allah ! We know what is in the skies and what is in the earth, and what is in the Paradise and what is in the Fire, and whatever is between that‘

He (the narrator) said, ‘I was amazed. I looked (stared) at him , so He said: ‘O Hammad! That is from the Book of Allah , that is in the Book of Allah  , that is in the Book of Allah !’Then He  recited this Verse: And on the Day We will Send into every community a witness upon them from themselves, and We shall Come with you as a witness upon these (witnesses). And We Revealed the Book unto you as a clarification of all things, and Guidance and Mercy and glad tidings for the submitters [16:89]. It is from the Book of Allah herein is a clarification of all things. In it is clarification of all things’’.

Every Friday night They(as) receive new knowledge



Ahmad ibn Idris al-Qummi and Muhammad ibn Yahya have narrated from al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Kufi from Musa ibn Sa‘dan from ‘Abdallah ibn Ayyub from abu Yahya al-San‘ani from abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) who has said the following. “O abu Yahya, on every Friday night there is a special task for us to pursue.” The narrator has said that he asked the Imams (a.s.), ““May Allah take my soul in service for your cause, of what nature is this special task?” The Imam (a.s.) said, “The spirits of the deceased prophets and the spirits of the deceased executors of the will of the prophets and the spirit of the executor of the will of the Holy Prophet living with you now are all taken to heavens until they arrive to the throne of their Lord and then walk around it seven times. They perform prayers near every column of the columns of the throne, in a two Rak‘at form after which they are returned to their bodies in which they were before. The prophets and the executors of the will of the prophets become full of joy and the executor of the will of the Holy Prophet living with you receives a huge increase in his knowledge.”

They recieve new knowledge through The Holy Spirit


Asbat reported that he asked Imam As-Sadiq (as): “You are asked about something on which the knowledge of it is not with you.” He said: “Sometimes this happens.” I said: “How do you go about it?” He said: “The Holy Spirit enlightens us with it.”
