Chapter: 41, Verse. 6-7 - Shirk in Imamah

قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ:أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ،عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ،عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ،عَنْ أَبِي جَمِيلَةَ،عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ تَغْلِبَ،قَالَ:قَالَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ): «يَا أَبَانُ أَ تَرَى أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ طَلَبَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ زَكَاةَ أَمْوَالِهِمْ وَ هُمْ يُشْرِكُونَ بِهِ حَيْثُ يَقُولُ: وَ وَيْلٌ لِلْمُشْرِكِينَ* اَلَّذِينَ لاٰ يُؤْتُونَ الزَّكٰاةَ وَ هُمْ بِالْآخِرَةِ هُمْ كٰافِرُونَ

قُلْتُ لَهُ:كَيْفَ ذَلِكَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ،فَسِّرْهُ لِي؟فَقَالَ:«وَ وَيْلٌ لِلْمُشْرِكِينَ الَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوا بِالْإِمَامِ الْأَوَّلِ،وَ هُمْ بِالْأَئِمَّةِ الْآخِرِينَ كَافِرُونَ،يَا أَبَانُ،إِنَّمَا دَعَا اللَّهُ الْعِبَادَ إِلَى الْإِيمَانِ بِهِ،فَإِذَا آمَنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَ رَسُولِهِ افْتَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْفَرَائِضَ

Narrated by Aban bin Taghlib that Abu Abd-Allah Imam Sadiq (عليه السلام) said to me, 

"O Aban, do you think that Allah (عز وجل) has asked the Polytheists (mushrikeen) for alms (zakat) of their wealth while they are doing shirk; when He says, "And Woe be upon the Polytheists (mushrikeen) who do not give alms (zakat) and do not believe in the hereafter" (41:6-7)

I said, "How is that, May I be sacrificed for you, explain it to me."

Imam (عليه السلام) said, "Woe upon the Polytheists (mushrikeen), those who associate others with the first Imam (referring to Imam Ali عليه السلام) and they are those who deny the other Imam's (عليهم السلام).  

O Aban, Indeed, Allah (عز وجل) calls the servants towards belief, then when they believe in Allah (عز وجل) and His Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله) then the obligations are obligated upon them."

Chapter: 41, Verse. 29 - The 2 who led others astray

حَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ:عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ الْقُمِّيِّ،عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الصَّلْتِ،عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ،عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ،عَنْ حُسَيْنٍ الْجَمَّالِ،عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ) ،فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى رَبَّنٰا أَرِنَا الَّذَيْنِ أَضَلاّٰنٰا مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَ الْإِنْسِ نَجْعَلْهُمٰا تَحْتَ أَقْدٰامِنٰا لِيَكُونٰا مِنَ الْأَسْفَلِينَ ،قَالَ هُمَا،وَ كَانَ فُلاَنٌ شَيْطَاناً

Narrated from Abu Abdillah Imam Sadiq (as) regarding the saying of Allah, "Our Lord! show us those 2 who led us astray from among the jinn and the men that we may trample them under our feet so that they may be of the lowest." (41:29)

Imam (as) said, "It refers to those 2 (Abu Bakr & Umar) and Fulan (referring to Umar?) was the devil (Satan)"

[Source: al-Kafi, Vol. 8, Pg. 334, Hadith. 522]

Regarding this narration, Allamah Majlisi says,

قوله عليه‌السلام: « هما » أي أبو بكر وعمر والمراد بـ« فلان » عمر أي الجن المذكور في الآية عمر ، وإنما سمي به لأنه كان شيطانا ، إما لأنه كان شرك شيطان لكونه ولد زناء أو لأنه كان في المكر والخديعة كالشيطان ، وعلى الأخير يحتمل العكس بأن يكون المراد بفلان أبا بكر

"The words of the Imam, 'those 2' refer to Abu Bakr and Umar and what is intended by 'Fulan' is Umar i.e. the jinn mentioned in the verse is Umar, rather umar was named as such because he was a Satan or he was connected to Satan because he was born of fornication (zina) or because he was similar to satan in cheating & betrayal/deception and it is also possible that this could mean Abu Bakr."

Narrated from Abu Abdillah Imam Sadiq (as) regarding the saying of Allah, "Our Lord! show us those 2 who led us astray from among the jinn and the men that we may trample them under our feet so that they may be of the lowest." (41:29)

Imam (as) said, "O Sawrah (the narrator), By Allah, it refers to those 2 (Abu Bakr & Umar), the Imam repeated this 3 times. By Allah, O Sawrah, We are the Treasurers of the Knowledge of Allah in the sky and We are the Treasurers of the Knowledge of Allah in the earth"

Part of long hadith quoted in the book Kamil al-Ziyarat:

Imam Sadiq (as) says, "The first judgment will be between Mohsin Ibne Ali (as) and his killer (referring to Umar). Then he will be brought forth along with Qunfudh and they will be lashed with whips of fire. The whips will be such that if one of them hits the oceans, they will boil from the east to the west and if (even one whip) touches the mountains, they will all melt and turn to ash."

Then Amirul Momineen (a.s.) will kneel before Allah so that Allah judges between him and the fourth usurper – Muawiyah. Then they (Umar, Qunfudh and Muawiyah) will be thrown in a well (of fire) which will be covered so no one can see them and they will not be able to see anyone.

So those who followed them will say, "Our Lord! show us those 2 who led us astray from among the jinn and the men that we may trample them under our feet so that they may be of the lowest." (41:29)
