After the Divine Order, Prophet (PBUH) made a public declaration and summoned people to the ritual of Pilgrimage. He took his family, his wives, and along with seventy thousand left for Mecca. A courier delivered this order to Imam Ali (AS), who was in Yemen for gathering their religious funds and solving their problems, and asked him to join them with the Muslims of that region in Mecca. Imam Ali (AS) with a twelve thousand pilgrims started a journey to Mecca. By hearing this news all the Muslims in different part of the world traveled to Mecca. With the arrival of the pilgrimage days, the Prophet(PBUH) pursued his Course towards Arafat, Al-Mash’iril-Haram and Mina, where he performed rites of pilgrimage respectively, and taught people the recommended and discommended acts of these rites.

After Pilgrimage After the ritual pilgrimage, according to the divine order Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) in a private session delivered all the deposits of God to Imam Ali(AS) and during a special ceremony in front of the public he gave him the title of “Amir al-Muminin”.

Slide 5: 

Only two days after ritual pilgrimage, the Prophet(S) summoned Bilal, the formal declarant, and ordered him of announcing that all people should be in Ghadir Khum the next day. By the command of the Prophet (S) 120 thousand Muslims accompanied him to Ghadir Khum the next morning. Under the shadow of the trees, on a pulpit made with saddles of the camels, Prophet Mohammad (AS) delivered his speech in 11 parts for about one hour. Public Decleration

Part One : 

Part One After praising Allah and enumerating His attributes and power of the exalted God, Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HF) witnessed his servitude for the one God and said: “…I believe in Him, His angels, His books, and His messengers. I listen to His command, obey Him, proceed towards, whatever pleases Him, and submit to what He decreed.”

Part Two : 

Part Two This section is about the conveying the message of Allah, which by not being conveyed the prophet mission, will not be complete. “…Verily, Gabriel came down to me three times giving the order of my Lord, Who is the security (of the believers), that I should stand in this scene and inform everyone, white and black, that: Ali Ibn Abi Talib is my brother, my deputy and the executor of (my affairs) (Wasi), my successor [over my nation] (Khalifa), and the leader (Imam) after me, whose position to me is like that of Aaron to Moses except that there shall be no prophet after me, and that he is your guardian (Wali) after Allah and His messenger.”

Slide 8: 

He announced the leadership of twelve Imams after himself till the last day of this world and for full perception of the issue of Imamate , he said: “O people! This is the last stand I make in this gathering; Thus, listen, obey, and submit to the command of your Lord, for Allah, the mighty and the majestic…Nothing is lawful except what Allah declared so (in His book), [as well as His Messenger, and them (i.e.,the Imams)] and nothing is unlawful except Allah declared so (in His book), [as well as His Messenger, and them] (for) Allah, the mighty and the majestic, has informed me of the permissible and the forbidden things, and I have made known to him (i.e., Ali) what my Lord has taught me of His Book, the permissible, and the forbidden things… Part Three He who doubts this, is indeed a disbeliever, with the disbelief of the early era of ignorance. And he who doubts anything of what I have said this (day), has doubted all that has been revealed to me. [And anyone who doubts any of the Imams, has doubted them all], and anyone who doubts us, shall be in the Fire.” “Certainly, Gabriel has informed me of this from Allah, the most high, Who also said: “Anyone who bears enmity against Ali and refuses his authority, for him shall be My curse and My wrath.”” Then he said: “O people! Verily, Ali and the pure ones among my offspring are the lesser weight, and the Quran is the greater weight. Each one [of the two] informs about the other and agrees with it. They shall never part until they return to me at the Pool (of al-Kawthar on the Day of Judgement)… Indeed, there is no commander for the faithful save this brother of mine, and it is not permissible to call anyone other than him with the title of “the Commander of the Believers” after my departure.”

Slide 9: 

“Behold! Whosoever I am his master, this Ali is his master. O Allah! Stay firm in supporting those who stay firm in following him, be hostile to those who are hostile to him, help those who help him, and forsake those who forsake him.” Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HF) raised Imam Ali ‘s(AS) hand with his hands and said: Part Four In this part of the sermon prophet narrated from Allah, the exalted and said: “This day, I perfected your religion for you, completed My favor upon you, and was satisfied that Islam be your religion.” You (also) said, “If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Walaya of Ali), never shall it be accepted from him, and in the Hereafter, he shall be one of the losers.” O Allah! I implore You to witness that I have conveyed (Your message).”

Slide 10: 

Part Five Prophet (PBUH&HF) continued: “O People! Your prophet is the best prophet, the executor (of my will) over you is the best executor and deputy, and his sons are the best deputies…O people! The progeny of every prophet was from his own loins whereas my progeny is from the loins of Ali…Indeed, none hates Ali but a wretched person, none keeps himself attached to Ali but a pious person, and none has faith in his (virtues) but a sincere believer…O people! I have sought Allah to be my witness and have conveyed my communication to you, “and the messenger is only obligated to convey clearly.” O people! “Be cautious of (your duties towards) Allah, the caution that He deserves, and do not die except in the state of submission.”

Slide 11: 

In this section prophet announced the wrath of God with regard to the verses about torturing and damning and said: “No one is intended by this (latter) verse except a certain group of my companions whom I know by their names and their lineage, yet, I have been ordered to ignore them. Allah, the mighty and the majestic, has made us (His) exhaustive argument against the neglectful, the stubborn, the dissenters, the treacherous, the sinful, the unjust, and the usurpers from all worlds. Ignoring them in this world wont remove their punishment of the last day …. Part Six O people! The light (created) by Allah, the mighty and the majestic, has been placed in me, then in Ali, and then in his select descendants up to al-Qa’im al-Mahdi 1, who shall re-establish the right of Allah as well as all our rights.” “O people! There shall be no (wrongful) community but that Allah shall perish it due to the rejection (of truth) by its people. Such is what Allah, the exalted, mentioned (in His book) as to how He destroys the wrongful societies. This is your leader and your guardian, and these are Allah’s promises. Verily, Allah fulfills His promise.” In the end of this part he felt the greatness of this duty and said: “Certainly, I just conveyed what I have been ordered to convey as an argument against everyone, be him present or absent, a direct witness or not, and already born or not yet born. Hence, everyone who is present should convey (this sermon) to those who are absent, every parent should convey it to his/her children, (and they should continue to do so) until the Day of Judgment.”

Slide 12: 

Part Seven In the meantime of reading chapter THE OPENING (Al-Hamd), prophet announced that: “This (chapter) was revealed in my honor and in theirs (i.e., the Imams’) generally and specifically” “Lo! Their close adherents shall enter Paradise in peace and security, and the angels shall receive them with greetings.” He emphasized again that: “O people! Behold! I am a warner and Ali is a guide. O people! I am a prophet and Ali is the executor of my (will).”

Slide 13: 

In this section Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HF) stated the full description of Imam Mahdi (AS) with these words that: “Know that the seal of the leaders from among us shall be the Qa’im, the Mahdi. He shall, most certainly, prevail over (all) religious (methods of life).He shall definitely be the avenger against the oppressors. He shall surely be the conqueror of the strongholds and their demolisher. He shall be, indeed, the destroyer of every polytheistic group. He shall be the attainer of vengeance for the blood of all representatives of Allah, the mighty and the majestic. He shall be the supporter of the religion of Allah… He shall be the authorized representative of Allah on His earth, His judge over His creation, and His trustee in His secrets and in what He made evident.” Part Eight

Slide 14: 

After conveying the message of succession, the important matter is the en mass allegiance. After reciting verse of allegiance, prophet said: “O people! (By this appointment) I have directed you to every lawful deed and prohibited you from every unlawful deed. And I shall never take (my word) back, nor shall I replace it.” Part Nine

Slide 15: 

“Notice that at the end of my sermon, I shall call upon you to shake hands with me as the oath of allegiance to him and the recognition of his authority, and to shake hands with him afterwards…The greatest case of enjoining righteous deeds is comprehending my saying, conveying it to whoever is not present, urging him to accept it, and advising him against violating it, for it is an order from Allah, the mighty and the majestic, and from me. There is no (value or effect for) enjoining (other) recognized deeds and forbidding the detested deeds except with (the recognition of) an infallible leader. ” Prophet points to the perpetual of divine laws and referral to Imam Ali and other infallibles in problems and announced: Part Ten “But, if time lapses and you fall short or forget, then Ali shall direct you and shall explain for you. He is the one whom Allah, the mighty and the majestic, appointed for you after me [as the trustee of His creation. He is from me and I am from him.] He and those who will succeed him from my progeny shall inform you of anything you ask about, and shall clarify what you do not know.”

Slide 16: 

In the last part of Ghadir sermon prophet said that: “O people! There are too many of you to shake my hand at the same time, and Allah, the mighty and the majestic, commanded me to take verbal recognition from you regarding what I finalized (on behalf of Allah) about Ali, the Commander of the Believers, and about the Imams from me and him who shall succeed him, based on what I informed you that my offspring are from his loins.” Part Eleven “We heard, obeyed, are satisfied, and are submitted to what you have conveyed to us from our Lord and your Lord with regard to the authority of Ali, the Commander of the Believers, and the authority of the Imams from his loins. We pledge allegiance to you in this regard with our hearts, our souls, our tongues, and our hand. According to this, shall we live, shall we die, and shall we be resurrected…We shall convey the same on your behalf to anyone, near or far, among our offspring and our people, We take Allah as witness to this, and surely Allah suffices as witness.” Then he mentioned some sentences in detail and asked people to repeat them exact sentences:
