hadith thaqalayn
7:36:21 2023-03-26 1035

Zaid ibn Arqam has recounted that the Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) said, "It seems that Allah has called me to Himself and I must obey His call. But I leave two great and precious things among you: The Book of Allah and My Household. Be careful as to how you behave toward them. These two will never be separated from each other until they encounter me at Kawthar (in Paradise.)"  Hadith Thaqalayn is one of the most strongly established Hadiths, and has been transmitted through many chains of transmission and in different versions. Shi'ites and Sunnis agree concerning its authenticity.

 Several important points can be deduced from this hadith and it's like:  In the same way that the Holy Qur'an will remain until the Day of Judgment, the progeny of the Holy Prophet will also remain. No period of time will be without the existence of the figure which is called the Imam, the real leader and guide of men. Through these two great trusts (Amana), the Prophet has provided for all the religious and intellectual needs of the Muslims. He has introduced his Household to Muslims as authorities in knowledge and has pronounced their words and deeds to be worthy and authoritative. One must not separate the Holy Qur'an from the Household of the Prophet. No Muslim has a right to reject knowledge of the members of the Household of the Prophet and remove himself from under their direction and guidance. If people obey the members of the Household and follow their words, they will never be led astray and Allah will always be with them.  

For Shi'ism, these individuals consist of 'Ali ibn Abi-Talib and his eleven descendants who were chosen to be Imams by Allah one after another. This interpretation is also confirmed by the Shiite traditions.
