Who Did the Prophet (PBUH) Mean by the Companions of the Scroll on the Day of Ghadir?
On the Day of Ghadir, the Companions of the Scroll were those who rebelled against the authority and imamate of Imam Ali (AS), pledging to prevent him and the family of the Messenger of God (PBUH) from assuming the caliphate. This document is also known as the Accursed Scroll or the Ominous Scroll. They intended to kill the Prophet (PBUH) at the mountain pass of Harshi, and after Ghadir they reaffirmed their pact in Medina.
