O people! Believe in Allah and His Messenger and the light that was sent down with him,“before We alter faces then turn them on their backs or curse them as We cursed the Sabbath breakers.”.

By Allah! No one is intended by this latter verse except a certain group of my companions whom I know by their names and their lineage, yet, I have been ordered to ignore them.
O people! The light created by Allah, the mighty and the majestic, has been placed in me, then in Ali, and then in his select descendants up to al-Qaaem al-Mahdi, who shall re-establish the right of Allah as well as all our rights, because Allah, the mighty and the majestic, has made us His exhaustive argument against the neglectful, the stubborn, the dissenters, the treacherous, the sinful, the unjust, and the usurpers from all worlds.

O people! I warn you that I am the Messenger of Allah. There have been messengers before me who came and passed away.Then, should I die or be killed, will you turn back on your heels? And whoever turns back on his heels shall not harm Allah in the least, and Allah shall soon reward the grateful, who observe patience.
Behold! Ali is surely the one described with patience and gratitude, so are after him my offspring from his loins.

O people! Do not think that you are doing a favor to Allah by accepting Islam lest His wrath should descend upon you, and lest He should afflict you with His punishment; surely He is ever-watching.

O people! There shall soon be leaders after me who shall invite people to the Fire, and on the Day of Judgement they shall not be helped. O people! Indeed, Allah and I are both clear of them.

O people! They, their supporters, their followers, and their adherents shall be in the lowest depths of the Fire; and evil, indeed, is the abode of the arrogant.
Know that these are, indeed, the People of the Sheet; so, let each one of you look into his own sheet of deeds!”

Imam Muhammad alBaghir (PEACE BE UPON HIM ), here states that except for a small band who themselves were the People of the Sheet, most people did not comprehend the issue of sheet.

O people! I leave the authority after me as Imama (leadership) inherited in my offspring until the Day of Judgement. Certainly, I just conveyed what I have been ordered to convey as an argument against everyone, be him present or absent, a direct witness or not, and already born or not yet born.

Hence, everyone who is present should convey this sermon to those who are absent, every parent should convey it to his/her children, and they should continue to do so, until the Day of Judgement.

But, I have been informed that some people shall replace this divinely-assigned leadership. with kingdom through usurpation. May Allah curse the usurpers and dispossessors.
And then, “We will soon settle your affairs, O the two weights.”. And also, “on you O the two greatest enemies shall be launched a flame of fire and a flash of molten brass, thus you shall never prevail.”

O people! Without doubt, Allah, the mighty and the majestic, does not leave you in the state you are now, until He separates the evil from the good ones. Nor does He make you acquainted with the knowledge of the unseen.

O people! There shall be no wrongful community but that Allah shall perish it due to the rejection of truth by its people.

Such is what Allah, the exalted, mentioned in His book as to how He destroys the wrongful societies. This is your leader and your guardian, and these are Allah's promises. Verily, Allah fulfills His promise.

O people! Most of the early generations before you have strayed, and surely, Allah destroyed them. He shall be the One who destroys the later generations too.
Allah, the exalted, states: “Did We not destroy the former generations? So shall We follow the same for later generations. Such is how We treat the guilty. Woe on that Day to the rejecters of truth!”

O people! Allah gave me the commandments and the prohibitions, and I gave them to Ali by the order of Allah. Hence, the knowledge of all commandments and prohibitions are with him. Thus, listen to his orders so that you remain safe, obey him so that you are guided, and leave what he prohibits so that you become mature. Conform to what he wants, and do not let different paths separate you from his path.
