Imām Ja'far as-Sādiq (A.S.) was asked -
“Do the true believers have an ‘Eid other than the two ‘Eid (of al-Adhha and al-Fitr) and the Jumu’ah?”
“Do the true believers have an ‘Eid other than the two ‘Eid (of al-Adhha and al-Fitr) and the Jumu’ah?”
Imām Ja'far ibn Muḥammad as-Sādiq (A.S.) replied:
“Yes, they have one which is even greater than these ones and that is the day when Amirul Mo’minin (peace be upon him) was designated by the Messenger of Allah (blessings of Allah be upon him and his family) with the Wilayah (at Ghadir Khumm) which rests on the necks of all the men and women.”
[Reference: Wasa’il ash-Shi’a, Volume 7, Page 325, Hadith 5]
It is narrated in a Hadith e Qudsi, that Allah (twt) said:
لو اجتمع الناس كلهم على ولاية علي ما خلقت النار
“If people would gather on the wilayat of Ali (as), I wouldn’t create the Fire”.
( Ref : Biharul Anwar Vol 39 Pg 246 )
