The Eventual outcome of us and Shias

The Messenger of Allah (ص) said to Ali (ع):

﴿ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ أَخَذْتُ بِحُجْزَةِ اللهِ وَأَخَذْتَ أَنْتَ بِحُجْزَتِي وَأَخَذَ وُلْدُ كَ بِحُجْزَتِكَ، وَأَخَذَتْ شِيعَةُ وُلْدِكَ بِحُجْزَتِهِمْ فَتَرَی أَيْنَ يُؤْمَرُ بِنَا ﴾

"When the day of Resurrection comes, I will beseech Allah, and you will resort to me, and your children will call upon you, and your followers (Shias) will call upon them, and you will see to where they will lead us."

Reference

Zamakhshari, Asas al-Balagha, page 155; and similar to this, in Rabi al-Abrar, (Zamakhshari, V.2, p.159). It is recorded in the chapter concerning Goodness and righteousness and reliving good and peace. And in Nazm Durar al-Simtain, (Zarandi, page 243) the same has come down in a hadith where he recommended his Ummah to cling to his Ahl al-bayt and explained that his progeny would resort to their Prophet (on the Resurrection day).
