ومن خطبة له (عليه السلام)
[في الله وفي الرسول الاكرم]
[الله تعالى]
الْحَمْدُ للهِ الاَْوَّلِ فَلاَ شَيْءَ قَبْلَهُ، وَالاخِرِ فَلاَ شَيْءَ بَعْدَهُ، وَالظَّاهِرِ فَلاَ شَيْءَ فَوْقَهُ، وَالْبَاطِنِ فَلاَ شيَ دُونَهُ.
منها: في ذكر الرسول(صلى الله عليه وآله)
مُسْتَقَرُّهُ خَيْرُ مُسْتَقَرٍّ، وَمَنْبِتُهُ أَشْرَفُ مَنْبِت، فِي مَعَادِنِ الْكَرَامَةِ، وَمَمَاهِدِ السَّلاَمَةِ.
قَدْ صُرِفَتْ نَحْوَهُ أَفْئِدَةُ الاَْبْرَارِ، وَثُنِيَتْ إِلَيْهِ أَزِمَّةُ الاَْبْصَارِ، دَفَنَ [اللهُ ]بِهِ الضَّغَائِنَ ، وَأَطْفَأَ بِهِ الثَّوَائِرَ ، وأَلَّفَ بِهِ إِخْوَاناً، وَفَرَّقَ بِهِ أَقْرَاناً، أَعَزَّ بِهِ الذِّلَّةَ، وَأَذَلَّ بِهِ الْعِزَّةَ، كَلاَمُهُ بَيَانٌ، وَصَمْتُهُ لِسَانٌ.
Praise be to Allah who is such First that nothing is
before Him and such Last that there is nothing after Him. He is such Manifest that there
is nothing above Him and such Hidden that there is nothing nearer than He.
A part of the same sermon about the
Holy Prophet
His place of stay is the best of all places and his origin the noblest of all origins in the mines of honour and the cradles of safety. Hearts of virtuous persons have been inclined towards him and the reins of eyes have been turned towards him.
Through him Allah buried mutual rancour and put off the flames of revolt. Through him He gave them affection like brothers and separated those who were together (through unbelief). Through him He gave honour to the low and degraded honour (of unbelief). His speaking is clear and his silence is (indicative) like tongue.
