Know about the 'Family' of Imam Ali (as):-
Daughters:
Grandson:-
13th of the month of Rajab, twenty-three years before the migration of
the Prophet (P.B.U.H.) a child was born in the family of Abu Talib, the light
of whom kindled the whole World. Kunaab Mecci narrates about his birth:
&We and Abbas (Ibne Abdul Mutalib) were sitting together when suddenly we
saw Fatima bint-e-Asad moving towards the Kaabah in the condition having
delivery pain and saying &Oh God I have faith in you and the Prophet (
i.e., Abraham) who by your command laid the foundation of this house. O God! I
swear you by the same Prophet (P.B.U.H.) and swear you by the child in my womb
make this birth comfortable and easy for me.&This was the time when all of us saw with our own eyes that the wall of Kaabah
broke apart and Fatima bint-e-Asad entered into the Kaabah. Then the wall
again united.
Sunni Reference Shah
Waliyullah in his book 'Izaalatul Khifa' mentions that this
distinction of Imam Ali (as) is that no one was born before or will
be born after him in the Ka'aba
We ran terrified and trembling to our houses to send our women into the Kaabah
for the help and assistance of Fatima. We did our best but the door did not
open. This event surprised all the people of Mecca.The women of Mecca were anxiously counting moments to meet Fatima till the
time she came out of the Kaabah along with a beautiful baby, saying, &God
has chosen me from among the ladies of Mecca and He made me His guest in His
house and gave me meals and fruits of the heaven to eat.The ladies who were surrounding her in the form of a circle and escorting her
to her home asked her, &What name have you given to this child?&She said: &When I was in the Kaabah, I heard a hidden voice call,&
Name this child &ALI&.
Possible Physical
The Ghadeer Affair
The Prophet (P.B.U.H.) set out for the pilgrimage of God's house with a large
Caravan in the 10th Hijra, so that the people may perform their Hajj rituals
with great fervor, in dignified and magnificent way, because that was the last
Hajj of the Prophet ( P.B.U.H.). The rituals were performed very well and the
Prophet (P.B.U.H.) returned to Medinah along with his companions. On his way
back, the Prophet (P.B.U.H.) was very anxious. His anxiety was about his
followers and the ummah. He was uneasy and anxious about the events, which
were to take place after his death. The actors and jugglers among the ummah,
were waiting for his death and had preplanned to deviate and de-track the
Imamate and leadership from its course. He sees all the hypocrites who
disg beat their heads and chests for him. But they have
not committed any blunder, folly and wrong yet, so that he may publicly
disgrace and dishonor them and prevent them (from doing what they intend). He
on one side, views all the incidents of the history and on the other, he must
perform the mission that God has handed him in connection with Ali ( A.S.),
that duty and mission is the caliphate of Ali (A.S.) that he must choose and
select him as his successor and heir, and put an end to the ambitions of the
chance seekers. Those who had nominated each one of themselves for the post of
caliphate and had made propaganda among the people that the Prophet ( P.B.U.H.)
will choose us as his heirs and successors.The call of the angel of revelation is reflecting in the heart and soul of the
Prophet (P.B.U.H.) as if still he is listening to what he said, &you have
a great mission ahead, if you did not perform this job then you have not done
the Prophetic duty and mission at all.& You must know, that God will save
you from the deceitfulness and tricks of the enemy.Yes, the successor of the sun of Prophet hood should be the sun of Willayat
(guardianship), possessing all the perfections, completeness and values of the
Prophet (P.B.U.H.). Who else could that be except Ali Ibne Abi Talib ( A.S.)?
Ali (A.S.), who was many times introduced by the Prophet (P.B.U.H.) with the
words such as: &'Ali (A.S.) is the wisest of all my ummah (followers).'
'I am the city of knowledge and wisdom and Ali is (like) its gate.' 'Whosoever
desires to have access to my wisdom should learn it from Ali.'& This is
the very reason that only Ali ( A.S.) can go up the cathedra (tribune) and say
amid the people. &Oh people, ask me whatsoever you desire, before a time
comes that you loose me.&The Prophet (P.B.U.H.) made up his mind and decided it to choose Ali ( A.S.)
as his successor on the command and at behest of God, so that, he may complete
and make the Islam perfect, as God had ordered him to do. The day of Ghadeer,
became a day in the history when God gave the good news to the Prophet (P.B.U.H.)
and said, &Today is the day when I have made Islam to be a perfect
(religion) and completed and finalized my blessings upon you (Muslims).&
What a fruitful Hajj and a holy return. There were approximately one hundred
and twenty thousand men accompanying the Prophet ( P.B.U.H.).All of them reached a place known as &Ghadeer-e-Khum& on the land of
&Juhfa&. The Prophet (P.B.U.H.) ordered them to stop. All of them
did stop at the behest of the Prophet (P.B.U.H .). They were saying to
themselves, &It appears that some vitally important problem has
confronted us.& It was just the same that they were thinking of.They built a tribune with the camel saddles for the Prophet ( P.B.U.H),
heralds were appointed amid the gathering to repeat and call out the words of
the Prophet (P.B.U.H.), so that, all the people may hear. He (P.B.U.H) went
atop the tribune while he was surrounded by his friends and said: &Oh
people! I performed my Prophetic mission and did put in endeavor to the
maximum of my energy that I possess. You should know that I leave two valuable
(weighty) things among you after myself (after my death) so that these two
will never at all get separated from each other.1. The Holy Quran, the Book of God.2. My Ahle Baith [People of the house, the Imam Ali (A.S.) Fatima (A.S.),
Hassan (A.S.), Hussain (A.S.) and nine Imams from the descendents of Hussain (A.S.)].Then, he took the hand of Ali (A.S.) and hoisted it like a flag, so that all
of the people might see. Thereafter, he said, &I am the guardian (wali)
of whosoever, (he should know that) Ali is also his guardian. Oh God! Be the
friend of the friends of Ali and be the enemy of his enemies. Help those who
help him and be the enemy of anyone who fights him. Yes, those who are present
convey my words to those who are not present here. I hope they will lend ears
and accept it.&
Martyrdom of Ali (A.S.)After the battle of Neherwan was over, group of Khwarij daily held a meeting
in Mecca and wept over their dead, those killed in Neherwan. One day, they
told each other, &Sitting here and weeping is of no use. We should kill
these three persons Ali ( A.S.), Muawiyah and Amro Aas, who destroyed the
Islamic State and killed our brothers.&They invited three volunteers to perform these errands. Ibn-e-Muljim stood and
said, &I will kill Ali (A.S.).& Hajjaj bin Abdullah, under took
killing Muawiyah and Amro bin Bakr Taimeemi said, &I will kill Amro Aas.&
The three of them made a commitment together that they would materialize their
plan on the 19th of Ramadan. Then, each one of them moved towards the place of
his mission, so that they reach there and wait for the date, which was fixed.But alas, the other two did not succeed in achieving there end, whereas,
Ibn-e-Muljim did succeed. Ibn-e-Muljim came to Kufa and contacted the enemies
of Ali (A.S.) and lived in their house till the 19th of Ramadan approached.
One day Ali (A.S.) came across him in the streets of Kufa. He wanted to hide
himself. But Ali ( A.S.) said, &I know for what purpose you have come to
Kufa.&As soon as Ibn-e-Muljim heard these words, he trembled and his legs could no
more carry him. He said to Ali (A.S.), &Oh Ali (A.S.) when it is so (that
you know) release the orders of my being killed or put me in the prison or
banish me off. Ali ( A.S.) had a look upon him and said, &Although I can
put into practice each one of your suggestions, but Islam does not deem
pre-crime punishment, fair. So I am obliged to let you go free. Perhaps you
may repent upon your decision.At last, on the 19th of Ramadan of the 40th Hijra the son of Muradi opened
apart Ali's (A.S.) head and the mountain of faith and piety tumbled and
crumbled down making the world of Islam mournful.After Ali (A.S.) cried on the prayer place (when injured), &By the God of
Kaabah I have succeeded.& The haven's angel Jabriel shouted, &By
God, the pillars of guidance are demolished. Ali ( A.S.) has been
martyred.&People rushed out of their houses and arrested the killer of Ali (A.S.) and
handed him over to Imam Hassan (A.S.), and carried Ali (A.S.) with a blood
stained face to his house.Imam Hassan (A.S.) imprisoned the killer and informed his father about it.Imam Ali (A.S.) told his son, &Oh Son! This man who is my killer and he
is your prisoner, look after his food and water and do not molest him. If I
survive I know what to do with him and if I die then do not strike him but one
blow.&Alas, Ali (A.S.) did not survive for this ummah. He passed away on the 21st of
Ramadan at the age of 63 years. His pure body was burried secretly at Najaf

Inheritance
Imam Ali (AS) was
endowed with a quick, sharp, incisive, mathematical mind. Here are a few
interesting stories in which Imam Ali's mathematical brilliance revealed
What is a wife's
Imam Ali (AS) was
once interrupted while he was delivering a sermon from the pulpit by someone
who asked him how to distribute the inheritance of someone who had died
leaving a wife, his parents and two daughters. The Imam instantly answered:
&The wife's share
becomes one ninth.&
This answer is in
fact the result of a long analysis with a number of steps. Ordinarily, we
have to decide on the original share of each of these heirs, in the
following way:
The wife takes
one eighth, in view of the presence of an inheriting child. [Holy Quran
The deceased's
father and mother take one sixth each. [Holy Quran 4:11]
The two daughters
take two thirds of the inheritance. [Holy Quran 4:11]
So the total will
be:1/8 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 2/3 = 3/24 + 4/24 + 4/24 + 16/24 = 27/24
This means the
share becomes less than 1/8 in view of the increase of the total of the
shares which are so fixed and prescribed. So the one eighth, the original
share due to the wife out of twenty-four total shares, has become three
shares out of a total of twenty-seven, which is one ninth.
Ali's mind went through this complex mathematical process in a second!
Whole Number and not a Fraction
One Day a Jewish
person came to Imam Ali (AS), thinking that since Imam Ali thinks he is too
smart, I'll ask him such a tough question that he won't be able to answer it
and I'll have the chance to embarrass him in front of all the Arabs.
He asked &Imam
Ali, tell me a number, that if we divide it by any number from 1-10 the
answer will always come in the form of a whole number and not as a
fraction.&
Imam Ali (AS)
looked back at him and said, &Take the number of days in a year and multiply
it with the number of days in a week and you will have your answer.&
The Jewish person
got astonished but as he was a polytheist (Mushrik), he still didn't believe
Imam Ali ibn Abu Talib (AS)
He calculated the answer
Ali ibn Abu Talib (AS) gave him.
To his amazement
he came across the following results:
The number of
Days in a Year = 360 (in Arab)
The Number of
Days in a Week = 7
The product of
the two numbers = 2520
1 = 25202520
