Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · The meaning of aal, ahl, ‘itra and ummah
حدثنا محمد بن الحسن - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا محمد بن يحيى العطار، عن محمد ابن أحمد، عن إبراهيم بن إسحاق، عن محمد بن سليمان الديلمي، عن أبيه قال: قلت لأبي عبد الله عليه السلام: جعلت فداك من الآل؟ قال: ذريته محمد صلى الله عليه وآله. قال: فقلت: ومن الأهل؟ قال: الأئمة عليهم السلام. فقلت: قوله عز وجل: " أدخلوا آل فرعون أشد العذاب " قال: والله ما عنى إلا ابنته.
2. We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan, may Allah grant him mercy, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Yahya al-‘Attar, from Muhammed ibn Ahmad, from Ibrahim bin Ishaq, from Muhammed bin Sulayman al-Daylami, from his father, that he said: I said to Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him: May I be sacrificed for you. Who are the Aal? He said: The offspring of Muhammed, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family. He said: Then I said: And who are the Ahl? He said: The Imams, peace be upon them. So I said: The saying of Him, Exalted and Glorious is He: «Enter, (O) Family of Pharao, into the most severe punishment» (40:46) He said: By Allah, he did not mean other than his daughter.
