Ibrahim Taimi narrates from his father that Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) delivered a sermon and said: Whoever thinks that we possess anything of the religion besides Allah’s Book and this scroll is lying, in this scroll there is mention of the ages of the camels for zakat and some issues of retribution, and it is also written in this scroll that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Medina is a sanctuary from ‘Air to Thawr. Whoever introduces an innovation in it or gives refuge to an innovator, upon him is the curse of Allah, the angels, and all people. Allah will not accept from him any obligatory or supererogatory worship on the Day of Resurrection. And whoever attributes himself to anyone other than his real father or masters, upon him is the curse of Allah, the angels, and all people. Allah will not accept from him any obligatory or supererogatory worship on the Day of Resurrection. The protection of all Muslims is one, even the lowest among the Muslims can grant protection (i.e., can give refuge to someone).”
