1. He was Born in the purest of
Places
By ALLAH’s will, the walls of the Kaaba split for Imam Ali’s (as) mother so she could enter the holy
Kaaba and give birth to him inside.
12. With the best of swords
"There is no hero and man like Ali; There is no sword like the Dhul-Fiqar“-
Prophet Muhammad(saw)
13. He was the best of heroes
HIJRA
Ali (s) slept on Pr. Muhammad’s
(s)bed without hesitation when
the non-believers entered the
house to kill the prophet. The
verse was revealed in honor of Ali
And among men there is one who
sells his life to win the pleasure of
Allah. Allah is very kind to His
devotees.
(Chapter 2; verse 207)
THE BATTLE OF BADR
The leadership of the polytheists of Makkah was
indeed permanently crippled at Badr. The hero
responsible for this was Ali.
F. E. Peters (historian)
Most of the Muslims fled the
battlefield after a rumor spread that
Muhammad (s) was killed . It was Ali
with a few brave men, stayed and
fought, beating back the enemy.
They found the injured prophet and
huddled him into a ravine where he
could be tended.
D. S. Margoliouth
14. He was the best of heroes
The battle of Khyber
20. He was the best of comforters
Fear Allah in matters concerning orphans.
Attend to their nutrition and do not forget their
interests in the middle of yours.-Imam Ali (as)
21. He was the best in giving charity
Certainly, your Master is Allah and His Messenger and those who
believe who establish prayer and give charity while they bow. And
who ever takes Allah and His Messenger and those who believe as a
guardian, so surely the party of Allah will be victorious. (Quran 5:55-56)
22. He was the best in feeding the poor and the deprived
32. On January 6, 1999 I had a meeting with Mr. Ali Tahir and Mr. Mohammad Ali. According to the photos
shown to me, I confirm that it seems possible to read the name Ali in Arabic script on the face of the moon.
