'''Hadith Silsilat al-Dhahab''' (Arabic: {{iarabic|حديث سِلسِلَة الذَّهَب}}) or the '''Golden Chain [[Hadith]]''' is a short narration given by [[Imam al-Rida (a)]] on his way to [[Merv]] through [[Neyshabur]], on the [[unity of God]] and one of its main conditions. Since all the narrators of this hadith are the infallible [[Imam]]s (a), all the way to [[The Prophet (s)|the Noble Prophet (s)]], whom himself has narrated it from Jabra'il (Gabriel) from God, thus it has been called '''Silsilat al-Dhahab''', which means Golden Chain. | |||

[[Ishaq b. Rahawayh]] says, "When [[Imam al-Rida (a)]] reached [[Nishabur]] on his journey to [[Khurasan]], after he decided to leave for [[Ma'mun]], the penmen gathered and said, "O son of the [[The Prophet (s)|Messenger of God (s)]], are you leaving our city without giving us a statement to benefit from?" Upon this request, the Imam (a) brought his head out of his wagon and said: "I heard my father [[Imam al-Kazim (a)|Musa b. Ja'far (a)]] say that I heard my father [[Imam al-Sadiq (a)|Ja'far b. Muhammad (a)]] say that I heard my father [[Imam al-Baqir (a)|Muhammad b. 'Ali (a)]] say that I heard my father [[Imam al-Sajjad (a)|'Ali b. al-Husayn (a)]] say that I heard my father [[Imam al-Husayn (a)|Husayn b.

Abi Talib (a)]] say that I heard [[The Prophet (s)|God's Messenger (s)]] say that I heard [[Gabriel]] say that I heard God say that 'the sentence 'There is no god but God' is my stronghold, thus whomever enters my stronghold shall be safe from my punishment.'" As the Imam's (a) caravan began to move, he said aloud: "With its conditions, and I myself am one of those conditions." | :[[Ishaq b.
