Importance of Ghadir in the words of infallible Imams

As importance of Ghadir, there are many words from Islamic scholars in which they narrated great quotes from infallible Imams. in this article, I am going to quote some of them below: Imam al-Jafar al-Sadiq ^(AS) says: The day of Ghadir among the days of Eid al-Fitr and Qurban/ Eid al-Adha and Friday, is like the moon among the stars.[1] The day of Ghadir is the great Eid of God, God has not sent a prophet, except that he took this day as an Eid and recognized its greatness, and the name of this day in the sky is the day of our covenant and on earth, the day of firm agreement and the presence of all.[2] It was said to Imam Sadiq ^(AS): Do believers have any other Eid besides Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, and Friday? He said: Sure, they have a bigger Eid than these, and that is the day when Amir al-Mu'minin^(AS) was raised in Ghadir Khum and the Messenger of God placed the issue of guardianship on the shoulders of men and women.[3] : Ammar bin Hariz says: On the 18th of Dhul Hijjah, I reached Imam Sadiq^(AS) and found him fasting. Imam said to me: Today is a great day, God gave it greatness and, on that day, he perfected the religion of the believers and completed the blessing on them and renewed our previous covenant.[4]

The Messenger of Allah, Muhammad ^(PBUH) says: The day of Ghadir is the best celebration of my nation.[5] The day of Ghadir is the best celebration of my nation and it is the day that Allah the Almighty ordered; On that day, I will appoint my brother Ali bin Abi Talib as the commander of my nation, so that the people will be guided by him after me, and that is the day that God completed the religion and completed the blessings on my nation. He liked/chose Islam as a religion for them.[6] O Muslims! Those present should convey to those who are not present: Whoever has believed in me and confirmed me, I entrust him to the Wilayat[7] of Ali, be aware that the Wilayat of Ali is my Wilayat and my Wilayat is the Wilayat of my God. This was a covenant from my Lord who commanded me to convey to you.[8]

Ziyad bin Muhammad says: I went to Imam Sadiq^(AS) and said: Do Muslims have any Eids other than Eid al-Adha, Eid al-Fitr, and Friday? The Imam said: Sure, the day when the Messenger of Allah Muhammad ^(PBUH) appointed the Commander of the Faithful as the caliphate and guardianship).[9]

Ali bin Musa al-Reza^(AS) the 8th Imam of Shia, says: My father quoted his father as saying: The day of Ghadir is more famous in heaven than on earth.[10] The day of Ghadir is more famous in the sky than on earth.[11]
