Arabic text

5 - أخبرنا أحمد بن محمد بن سعيد بن عقدة قال: حدثنا علي بن الحسن بن فضال من كتابه، قال: حدثنا العباس بن عامر بن رباح الثقفي، عن أبي المغرا عن أبي سلام، عن سورة بن كليب، عن أبي جعفر محمد بن علي الباقر أنه قال: قول الله وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ تَرَى الَّذِينَ كَذَبُوا عَلَى اللَّهِ وُجُوهُهُمْ مُسْوَدَّةٌ ۚ أَلَيْسَ فِي جَهَنَّمَ مَثْوًى لِلْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ قال: مَن زعم أنه إمامٌ وليس بإمام. قلت: وإن كان علوياً فاطمياً؟ قال: وإن كان علوياً فاطمياً.

Translation

(5) Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Sa’eed bin Oqda narrated from Ali bin al-Hasan bin Fadhdhal from al-Abbas bin Aamir bin Rabah ath-Thaqafi from Abul-Mughra from Abu Salam from Sawra bin Kilab that Imam al-Baqir (as) had said when talking about the Qur’anic verse (And on the day of resurrection you shall see those who lied against Allah; their faces shall be blackened. Is there not in hell an abode for the proud:) “It is he, who pretends that he is an imam but he is not.” Sawra said: “Even if he is an Alawite and Fatimite?” Imam al-Baqir said: “Yes, even if he is an Alawite and Fatimite.”
