OCCASION OF REVELATION
VERSE NO. 1-3
Many of the expounders of QurÌn have related that, when our prophet, in the GHADIR KHOMM, introduced Hazrat Imam Ali(AS), as his vicegerent; NEAMAN IBN HARITH, said to him;-
``Yet told us to testify the Oneness of God, and we did. You said that you are the Messenger of God and we accepted. Then you ordered us to perform the prayers, the rites of Hajj, and to attend Jihad; we followed you. With all that you were not satisfied! Now you bid us to accept this young man as your successor! Is that your own decision or God has said it? The prophet answered:-
I swear by Allah that there is no God except Him that this appointment, I have done as per order of God.''
NEAAMAN, left the prophet saying:-
``O,God! If this is true, rain down stones upon me.''
At once a stone came down from the sky, and fell upon his head and killed him!
Allameh AMINY in his great work named, ALGHADIR, has related the above tradition by 30 Sunnite witnesses.
The Arabic,``MAARIJ'' which is the name of Sureh (No. 70) has been used in its literal sense of meaning; which means steps, ladders, grades and etc., through which Man may ascend towards God. But Allah is so high that no man or angel can ever reach that height for being infinite and limitless.
