The event of Ghadir Khumm is a turning point in Islamic history. There, by divine command, the Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) announced the succession of Amir al‑Muminin (peace be upon him).And his one‑hour sermon at Ghadir is, more than anything else, proof of the unbreakable bond between religion, wilayah, and the Qur’an.

“Praise be to Allah, who guided us to this. We would never have been guided if Allah had not guided us.”
- Surah al‑Ahzab (33):71
وَمَنْ يُطِعِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَدْ فَازَ فَوْزًا عَظِيمًا
“And whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly achieved a great attainment.”
- Surah al‑Tawbah (9):20-21
(20) الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَهَاجَرُوا وَجَاهَدُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ بِأَمْوَالِهِمْ وَأَنْفُسِهِمْ أَعْظَمُ دَرَجَةً عِنْدَ اللَّهِ ۚ وَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْفَائِزُونَ (21) يُبَشِّرُهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ بِرَحْمَةٍ مِنْهُ وَرِضْوَانٍ وَجَنَّاتٍ لَهُمْ فِيهَا نَعِيمٌ مُقِيمٌ
“Those who have believed, emigrated, and striven in the cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives are greater in rank in the sight of Allah. It is they who are the successful. Their Lord gives them good tidings of mercy from Him and pleasure and gardens of lasting bliss.”
- Surah Ibrahim (14):8
إِنْ تَكْفُرُوا أَنْتُمْ وَمَنْ فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَغَنِيٌّ حَمِيدٌ
“If you disbelieve, you and whoever is on the earth entirely — indeed, Allah is Free of need and Praiseworthy.”
- Surah Al ‘Imran (3):144 (partial, already cited)
وَمَنْ يَنْقَلِبْ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيْهِ فَلَنْ يَضُرَّ اللَّهَ شَيْئًا
“And whoever turns back on his heels will not harm Allah at all.”
