*In The Name of Allah the Most High* *Salamun Alaikum*
Allah says - .....In My sight the greatest sin is to deny me and My messenger and to be inimical towards Ali (a.s.) and thereafter the Holy Imams (a.s.) from his progeny. If you desire to gain a high rank, it is incumbent upon you not to give preference to anyone over and above Muhammad (s.a.w.a.) and Ali (a.s.) and thereafter the holy Imams (a.s.) from their progeny who are the owners of your affairs. One who believes what I have said, will be among honorable kings in Paradise and I am the greatest enemy of one who tries to become My equal and claims godhood. Thereafter, I am the greatest foe of one who tries to be on equal footing with Muhammad (s.a.w.s.) and disputes with him in the matter of messengership and claims prophethood. Thereafter I am the biggest enemy of one who tries to be equal to my messenger’s successor Ali (a.s.) and disputes with him in rank and position and claims his position. After all of these false claimants (who have, by so doing inflamed My anger and have become entitled to My chastisement) I am the enemy of those who assist such false claimants and thereafter I am the enemy of those who are pleased with these false claimants, even though they do not aid them in any way. Likewise in My sight, the most loving creation is My Messenger, Muhammad (s.a.w.s.) and after him is Ali (a.s.) and thereafter the true Imams (a.s.) all of whom are just. Thereafter, the excellent people are those who assist the aforesaid best persons in supporting their right. Thereafter, I love most those who love the said excellent personalities and are inimical to their enemies, even if they may not be able to help them. (Tafseer-e-Imam Hasan Askari a.s. under the tafseer of - Thee do we beseech for help (Surah Fatihah)).
