AhleBait (as) are Noor
Allah (swt) says in Sura Al Asr:
وَالْعَصْرِ [١٠٣:١]
By (the Token of) Time (through the ages),
إِنَّ الْإِنْسَانَ لَفِي خُسْرٍ [١٠٣:٢]
Verily Man is in loss,
إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا
الصَّالِحَاتِ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالْحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالصَّبْرِ [١٠٣:٣]
Except those who believe, and do righteous deeds, and (join
together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy.
The Question comes... Believe in What? The
following Ayah of Holy Quran answers the question:
فَآمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ
وَالنُّورِ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْنَا ۚ وَاللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرٌ [٦٤:٨]
Believe, therefore, in Allah and His Messenger, and in the Light which we
have sent down. And Allah is well acquainted with all that ye do. [64:8]
The Following Hadees of Imam Musa Kazim (as)
Endorses the above truth that the Ahlul Bait (as) are NOT Humans and have only
come in Human form for the guidance of Human beings :
Imam Musa Kazim (as) while taking about Meraj and
referring to Prophet Muhammad (saww) and Imam Ali (as) says:
ظاهر هما بشریة و باطنهما لا هوتیه ظهرا الخلق علی هیاكل الناسوتیة حتی
یطیقوا روتیها
“These
2 are apparently (Externally) Human and their Batin (internal) is related to
Allah (swt). They have come amongst people in their form (appearance) so that
people can see them."
Imam Musa Kazim (as) continues saying that this has been mentioned
in the following verse of the Holy Quran:
وَلَوْ جَعَلْنَاهُ مَلَكًا
لَجَعَلْنَاهُ رَجُلًا وَلَلَبَسْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ مَا يَلْبِسُونَ [٦:٩]
If we had made it an angel, We should have sent him as a man, and We should
certainly have dressed them the way they are dressed up.

Hating the enemies of Ahlul Bait (as)
--- Proof of Love of Ahlul Bait (as) ---
إن الله لم يجعل لرجل من
قلبين في جوفه يحب بهذا ويبغض بهذا ، اما محبنا فيخلص الحب لنا كما يخلص الذهب
بالنار لاكدر فيه .... فمن أراد أن يعلم حبنا فليمتحن قلبه فإن شارك في حبنا عدونا
فليس منا ولسنا منه والله عدوه وجبرئيل وميكائيل والله عدو للكافرين
..."Whoever wants to know whether he loves us or not, he should test his heart, if he includes the love of our enemies with our love then he is not with us and we are not with him. And Allah (swt), Jibraeel, Mikaeel are his enemies. And Allah(swt) is the enemies of the Kafir."

--- Those who dont do Tabarra againt the enemies of Imam Ali (as) ---
وبإسناده عن الحسين
بن سعيد ، عن النضر ، عن يحيى الحلبي ، عن ابن مسكان ، عن إسماعيل الجعفي قال : قلت
لابي جعفر ( عليه السلام ) : رجل يحب أمير المؤمنين ( عليه السلام ) ولا يتبرأ من عدوه
ويقول : هو أحب إلي ممن خالفه ، فقال : هذا مخلط
وهو عدو ،
فلا تصل خلفه ولا كرامة إلا أن تتقيه .
And by his isnad form al-Husayn b. Sa`id from an-Nadr from Yahya al-Halabi from Ibn Muskan from Isma`il al-Ju`fi. He said: I said to Abu Ja`far (as): A man who loves Amir al-Mu'mineen (as) but does not do bara'a from his enemies, and he says: He [Imam Ali (as)] is more beloved to me from those who opposed him. So Imam (as) said: This is a confused (person) and he is an enemy, so do not pray behind him, not at all, unless you fear him.

--- Imam Ali (as) doing Tabarra ---
يقول سُليم: (ثم ذكر
علي عليه السلام) عائشة وخروجها من بيتها وما ركبت منه فقال عمار يا أمير المؤمنين
كفّ عنها فإنها أمك, فترك الإمام ذكرها و أخذ في شيء آخر(اي تناول موضوعا آخر), ثم
عاد إلى ذكرها فقال أشد مما قال أولا فقال عمار يا
أمير المؤمنن
كف عنها فإنها أمك, فأعرض عن ذكرها ثم عاد الثالثه فقال أشد مما قال, قال فقال عمار
كفّ عنها فإنها امك , فقال عليه السلام: كلا, إنّي مع الله على من خالفه و إنّ أمكم
ابتلاكم الله بها ليعلم أمعه تكونون أم معها
Then Ali (as) talked about Ayshah and her leaving the house and what she did to Ali (as). So Ammaar said: 'O Ameerul Momineen you leave talking about her because she is your mother.' He [Ali (as)] stopped talking about her and started another matter. Then he [Ali (as)] returned towards mentioning her and said stronger things than before. Ammaar said again: 'O Ameerul Momineen you leave talking about her. She is your mother.' Then he [Ali (as)] turned away from talking about her, but returned to it third time and said even stronger matter than the second time. Then Ammaar said: 'O Ameerul Momineen keep away from her because she is your mother.' So he (as) said:
"Never! I am with Allah. I do not care about those who oppose Allah. Surely Allah has tested you through your mother (Ayesha), so it becomes known whether you are with him or with her."

Strongest Rope of Faith
عن أبي عبدالله عليه
السلام قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله لاصحابه: أي عرى الايمان أوثق؟
فقالوا: الله ورسوله أعلم، وقال بعضهم: الصلاة وقال بعضهم: الزكاة وقال بعضهم:
الصيام وقال بعضهم: الحج والعمرة وقال بعضهم: الجهاد، فقال رسول الله صلى
الله عليه وآله: لكل ما قلتم فضل وليس به ولكن أوثق عرى الايمان الحب في الله
والبغض في الله وتوالي أولياء الله و التبري من أعداء الله
“Narrated Imam Sadiq (as) that the Holy prophet (saww) asked his companions. What is the strongest rope of Eeman (faith). The companions said "Allah and his Prophet know best". Few companions said Salaat (prayers), few said zakat, few said Fasting, few said Hajj, and few said Jihad. The Prophet (saww) said "All that who have said are merits but not the strongest rope of Eeman (faith). The strongest rope of Eeman (faith) is “loving for Allah and hating for Allah and befriending the friends of Allah and enmity with the enemies of Allah.”

religion and does not hate anyone in religion has no religion.Source: Al kafi - Book of Eeman and Kufr. Ch.188 H.16

Sayings of Allah (swt) on Wilayat & Imamat
(1)
أن جبرائيل عليه
السلام نزل على النبي ( صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم ) ، فقال : يا محمد السلام يقرئك
السلام ويقول : خلقت السماوات السبع وما فيهن ، والأرضين السبع ومن عليهن ، وما
خلقت موضعا أعظم من الركن والمقام ، ولو أن عبدا دعاني هناك منذ خلقت السماوات
والأرضين ثم لقيني جاحدا لولاية علي لكببته في سقر
“I have created the seven heavens and whatever is in them the
seven layers of earth and whatever is on them. And have not created place
greater than Rukn & Makaan. And if any of my servants calls upon me since
the time I have created the heavens and the earth and meets me in such a state
that he does not believe in the Wilayat of Imam Ali (as) then I will
surely put him in hell."

و إني جعلت عليا (ع) علما للإيمان فمن أحبه و اتبعه كان هاديا و من
تركه و أبغضه كان ضالا إنه لا يحبه إلا مؤمن و لا يبغضه إلا مناف
“Beware that I have declared Imam Ali (as) as the sign of
guidance. So whoever follows him is guided and whoever rejects him is
misguided. None will love him except a believer and none will have enmity
towards him except a hypocrite.”

فبعزتي حلفت و
بجلالي قسمت أنه لا يتولى عليا عبد من عبادي إلا زحزحته عن النار و أدخلته الجنة و
لا يبغضه عبد من عبادي و يعدل عن ولايته إلا أبغضته و أدخلته النار و بئس المصير
“By my dignity and glory I sweare that none from amongst my
servants well love Ali (as) but that I will protect him from the fire (of hell)
and will enter him in heaven. And none from amongst my servants will have His
(as) enmity but that he will be My enemy and will put him in the fire (of hell)
and that(hell) is a bad place.”

عن رسول الله صلى
الله عليه و اله ان الله عهد الي في علي عهدا فقلت يا رب بينه لي قال اسمع ان علي
رايه الهدى و امام اوليائي ونور من اطاعني و هو الكلمه التي الزمتها المتقين من
احبه فقد اخبني و من اطاعه فقد اطاعني فبشرة بذلك
“Ali ibn abi Talib is the standard of guidance and the Imam of my
friends and light for those who obey me. And He (Ali) is that word (kalma)
which has been made obligatory on the pious. The one who loves him loves me and
the one who has enmity with him had enmity with me. O Muhammad give these
tidings to him (Ali).”
