Imam Ali (pbuh) was born on Friday the 13th of the Islamic month, Rajab, inside the holy Ka’ba in Mecca. On this auspicious day we pray to Allah to shower all our readers with His mercy and blessings..
Following are the sayings of Ameerul Momineen Imam Ali Ibne Abu Talib (pbuh):
“Avarice is disgrace; cowardice is a defect; poverty often disables an intelligent man from arguing his case; a poor man is a stranger in his own town; misfortune and helplessness are calamities; patience is a kind of bravery; to sever attachments with the wicked world is the greatest wealth; piety is the best weapon of defence”
“Submission to Allah’s Will is the best companion; wisdom is the noblest heritage; theoretical and practical knowledge are the best signs of distinction; deep thinking will present the clearest picture of every problem”
“Live amongst people in such a manner that if you die they weep over you and if you are alive they crave for your company”
Prophet Mohammad (S.A.W.) said:
“I am the city of science and Ali is its door those who are in need for science should come through the door.”; In another statement he said “I am the city of wisdom and Ali is its door those who are in need for wisdom should come through the door otherwise he is a thief.”
Regarding divine right of Imam Ali (A.S.) the Holy Prophet of Islam (S.A.W.) declared:
“Whomsoever I have authority over; Ali (A.S.) has also authority over him, O Allah! Befriend whoever befriend him and be hostile to whosoever is hostile to him”.
