An Inquiry into the Hadith ((Claiming Shiaism to the Exclusion of Loving Aha al-Bayt))

The consideration of Loving without action is a superficial approach which includes the deviating movement of a school of thought. Jabir`s hadith is one of the most reliable Shiah`s hadith in which Imam Baqir (p.b.u.h) introduces the real Shiahs. Perfectly, this hadith depicts the unbreakable bond of lover and beloved. According to this hadith, and using an action-oriented approach, the mere love is neglected and love without action is derivative and its consequences are hardship and misery. Imam Baqir (p.b.u.h) introduces the real Shiahs by depiting 17 features of belief, moral and education. He demands his followers to utilize these features in their behavior. Piety and obeying God are two pivotal features that specifies the belief and functional management of the real Shiahs. Using these attribute alongside with other 15 attributes leads to the individual and social prosperity. Based on this Hadith, on the contrary to the common wrong belief of the ignorant frinds and negligent enemies and common belief of some people, the mere friendship with Ahl al-Bayt is not sufficient and obeying the mentioned attributes is obligatory. The present paper analyzes this Hadith, using the narrative data.
