(The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub – Abdul Razaq, from Ma’mar, from Qatadah, from Ata’a, from Ibn Masoud, ‘Regarding His-azwj Words: Surely, We Made whatever is upon the earth as an adornment for it, so We may Try them (as to) which of them is best in deeds [18: 7]. He said, ‘Adornment of the earth are the men, and adornment of the men is Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’’. [241]
Abu Al Jaroud, ‘From Abu Ja’far-asws regarding His-azwj Words: They are hastening in the good deeds, [23: 61] – Verse. He-asws said: ‘Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. No one preceded him-asws’’. [242]
Ibn Uqdah and Ibn Jareer, by the chain from Al Khudri, and Jabir Al Ansari and a group from the interpreters, ‘and you can (already) recognise them by their tone of speech, [47: 30] due to their hatred of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws’’. [243]
