Jazakum Allahu Khairan Katheeran. "...Wa Aliyun Maula." Ali Ibn Abu Talib AS was the only legitimate and Rightful Successor as designated by the Messenger of Allah himself SAS. Some of the most meritorious, indisputably prominent and distinguished characteristics and status of Ali AS over and above ALL the other Sahabas can be highlighted as follows: 1. Ali AS was brought up in the household of the Prophet SAS from the tender age of 10 when the Prophet SAS was then 30 years old, 10 years before Revelation and never worshipped idols, unlike the rest of the Sahabas. 2. Dawatul Ashira - 609 when Ali AS was the first male at 23 years old who openly declared acceptance of Islam directly to Prophet SAS, while the other paternal blood relatives declined. Refer to 26:214. The Prophet SAS then referred to him as "Akhi", "Wasi" and "Khalifa". 3. Lailat Mabit - 622 when Ali AS readily and happily risked his life for the Prophet SAS by agreeing to sleep in his SAS's bed for the Hijrah, at the assasination plot to kill the Prophet SAS by the tribesmen. Refer to 2:207. 4. On the Hijrah from Makkah to Madinah, the Prophet SAS left Ali AS in charge of executing the Amana by returning the valuable possessions of some Makkans kept with the Prophet SAS back to the people as a Sacred Trust. 5. The Prophet SAS then gave Ali AS another Sacred Trust to take the three Fatimas - Fatima Zahara AS, his own mother Fatima and Fatima, daughter of Hamza safely to join the Prophet SAS in Madinah and single-handedly valiantly fought off attackers on the journey. 6. A few months upon arrival in Madinah, the Prophet SAS ordered the Muhajireen to each choose an Ansar as his brother to cement brotherhood, but he SAS did not request Ali AS to do so. Neither did the Prophet SAS himself do likewise. Instead, he SAS held Ali AS's hand and declared him as his SAS brother to affirm their special and unique relationship in this world and the Hereafter. Refer to 59:9. 7. Marriage to Fatima AS - 624 when Ali AS was choosen to marry the daughter of the Prophet SAS, while Abu Bakr and Umar RA were refused. Ali AS was the paternal cousin of the Prophet SAS, son-in-law and closest confidante and their house was the only door left open to Masjid Nabawi when all others were ordered closed. 8. Battle of Badr - 624 when Ali AS put down more of the enemies than any other from among the 313 ill equipped Muslims against some 1,000 strong and better equipped enemies of Makkah. 9. Battle of Khaibar - 629 when Ali AS brought an astounding victory to the Prophet SAS. After Abu Bakr and Umar RA failed to do so before him on two separate attempts, the Prophet SAS made an amazing statement: "Tomorrow Allah will send a man who loves Allah and His Prophet and Allah and His Prophet love him too. He will deliver Khaibar to me." 10. Battle of Hunain - 630 when the army of 12,000 fled the arrows in the valley by the Hawazin and Thaqif of 24,000 strong against the Prophet SAS, while only 8 distinguished Companions remained with the Prophet SAS, not including neither Abu Bakr, Umar nor Uthman RA. Ali AS brought final victory to him SAS at Hunain. 11. Ghazwat Tabuk - 630 when the Prophet SAS left Ali AS in charge of Madinah and likened him to himself SAS as Aron was to Moses AS as Nabi and Successor. Refer to 13:7. 12. Ghadeer Khumm - 632 on the 18th of Zul Hijjah after the Farewell Hajj, when the Prophet SAS explicitly and publicly declared Ali AS his SAS's Successor and those present openly congratulated him, including Abu Bakr and Umar RA. 13. Mubahala - 632 when the Prophet SAS entered into Divine Curse with the Christians of Najran to prove the Truth. The Prophet SAS took along with himself only Ali, Fatima, Hasan and Husain AS as his family to confront the Christians. Refer 3:61. 14. Kisa - 632 when the Prophet SAS took only Ali, Fatima, Hasan and Husain AS under his cloak at the Revelation of Ayat Tathir, 33:33, as the only members of Ahlul Bait. He excluded others even though it happened in the house of Umm Salama RA who expressly requested to be included. 15. This highlights the superiority of Ali AS over all the other Sahabas, when the Prophet SAS declared: "I am the City of Knowledge and Ali is the Gate." 16. Consider why the Prophet SAS, at his death bed, when he SAS ordered everyone, including Abu Bakr and Umar RA who refused to join Usama bin Zaid's Army against the Romans but particularly insisted that only Ali Ibn Abu Talib AS alone should remain with him SAS in Madinah.

There are many objections to ur statement ill mention the verse of 33-33, if you read the whole context of the verse it is speaking to the wives of the prophet pbuh, 55-9 talks about the pact of brotherhood between the ansar and muhajiroon RA so i dont know why you added that verse as to direct it to successorship of Prophet pbuh.

Musa ibn ‘Uqbah which was cited earlier has been cited verbatim by the renowned Shia scholar, Ibn Abi al Hadid, in his commentary of Nahj al Balaghah. He writes: قال علي والزبير ما غضبنا إلا في المشورة وإنا لنري أبا بكر أحق الناس بها إنه صاحب الغار وإنا لنعرف سنه… وأمره رسول الله صلي الله عليه وسلم بالصلوة وهو حي. ‘Ali and al Zubair said: “We were only disillusioned because our opinion was not sought. And we assert that Abu Bakr is the most deserving of it; he is the companion of the cave. We concede his seniority in age… And Rasulullah salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam had instructed him to lead the salah during his lifetime.” Sharh Nahj al Balaghah 1/154, discussion regarding Saqifah and the dispute of the people after the death of Rasul Allah salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam.

Comment

[@bitterlifes]

With this interpretation of event of ,'Ghadir Khum', i respectfully desagrea!

[@sstorage3732]

Sahii Bukhari and Muslim narrates what Sheikh is saying..read your own books

[@mohdrodzi6756]

During the death of Prophet Muhammad, Ali is said to be washing the body of the prophet. People could find him after that. They found him at Fatimah's house. Was this should be the act of a leader, Imam, caliph during the chaotic situation, This action showed Ali was not interested to solve the problem of the people after loosing a leader.

[@mohdrodzi6756]

People could not find him.

[@mohdrodzi6756]

This shows your story regarding Ghadir khum is false.

[@waleeha7407]

this just shows that there was no leadership problem to be solved. Imam Ali knew about his Imamat beginning immediately after the Prophet(S.A.W.W) passed away. The problem was made by the so called khulafas as they REFUSED Ghadir e Khum, just how you're doing right now. You're welcome

[@TheAspiringFatimiya]

your comment just proves how your khalifas were more eager to get the caliphate than to mourn the prophet's death. they only wanted the caliphate.

[@abdullahassaffah]

Here The prophet warned the people of Syria, that they should consider Ali (RA) as their leader, and show love and respect for Ahle-bait. This is proven true, with the events that followed 30 years later when the governor of Syria (“Amir e Muawiya”) revolted against the 4th caliph Ali (Ra). And many unfortunate events followed in the years to come including the incident of Karbala where the grandson of the prophet was killed during the caliphate of Yazid-bin-Muawiya .The prophet knew that trouble was to arose from Syria in the coming years, and hence he warned them before hand that a time shall come when people shall be divided into two groups, and at that time Ali (RA) is the one who will be on the right path, and those who oppose him shall be on the wrong side. This is what prophet wanted to convey when he said “Those who consider me as their leader, they should consider Ali (RA) also their leader”.

What are you saying that abu bakr was a munafiq ? Remember you will answer for this statement on the day of qiyaamah
