When Ali (MGB) came in, the Prophet (MGB) and Ali (MGB) turned their faces towards the wall and pulled their cloak over their heads. The people were standing still outside the door until Ali (MGB) came out. A man asked him (MGB), ‘Did God’s Prophet (MGB) disclose any secrets to you?’ Ali (MGB) replied, ‘Yes. The Prophet (MGB) disclosed to me one-thousand gates each of which opens up to another one-thousand gates.’ The man said, ‘Did you memorize them?’ Ali (MGB) replied, ‘Yes. Moreover I understood them.’ The man asked, ‘What is the blackness that is in the moon?’ Ali (MGB) replied, ‘Indeed the Honorable the Exalted God said, ‘We have made the Night and the Day as two(of Our) Signs: the Sign of the Night have We obscured, while the Sign of the Day We have made to enlighten you; that ye may seek bounty from your Lord, and that ye may know the number and count of the years: all things have We explained in detail.’’ The man told him, ‘O Ali! You truly understood it.’”

In any issue in which God prevents His servants from doing their duty, God accepts His servant’s excuse.’”Other narrators of this tradition have added that Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB) added, “’This is from those chapters which result in one-thousand chapters.

Pledge allegiance to him.’ Those seven individuals pledged allegiance to the lizard and Amr ibn Harith himself was the eighth person who pledged allegiance to the lizard. They returned on Wednesday night and arrived at Madaen on Friday. They did not disperse and were all together. The Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali (as) was delivering the Friday prayer sermon at the mosque. Once they came into the mosque, Ali (as) looked at them and said, “O people! God’s Prophet (sw) disclosed one-thousand narrations to me each of which has one-thousand gates each of which has one-thousand keys. I heard God - may His Majesty be Exalted - say, ‘One day We shall call together all human beings with their (respective) Imams…’ I swear by God that there will be eight people who shall be resurrected with their leader which will be a lizard. I could name them one by one for you if I wish.”Asbaq added, “I saw that Amr ibn Harith had become so sorry and ashamed that he held his head down just like a date palm branch.”
