Hadith 33

from me, [14: 36], and He-azwj Claimed for a people regarding the love of Ali-asws: Surely the foremost of people to Ibrahim are those who follow him [3: 68] – the Verse. And Ibrahim-as perceived fear within himself-as from the Angels, and Ali-asws spoke with them. And rest of the Prophets-as after Ibrahim-as are from his-as lineage: being a sect of your father Ibrahim. He named you all as the Muslims [22: 78], and rest of the successors-asws are from the sons-asws of Ali-asws: and their offspring follow them with Eman, [52: 21]. Ibrahim-as laid the foundation of the Kabah: Surely, the first House Placed for the people [3: 96]. And Ali-asws manifested and purified the Kaaba from the divining arrows, and Ibrahim-as broke the idols: They said, ‘Did you do this with our gods, O Ibrahim? ’ [21: 62] He said: ‘But their biggest one did this, [21: 63] – meaning Afloun (the biggest idol); and Ali-asws broke three hundred and sixty idols, their biggest being Hobal. Allah-azwj Tried Ibrahim–as with sacrifice of the son–as: I saw in the dream that I should slay you, [37: 102], and Abu Talib-asws made Ali-asws spend the night on the bed of Rasool-Allah-saww every night in the mountain pass, and the Prophet-saww made him-asws spend the night on the night of Emigration, and between the two sacrifices, there are differences. And sometimes the father would have compassion upon his son and would not slaughter him, and Ali-asws was upon certainty from the Kafirs and strength in the thinking of his son, that his father is testing him regarding his obedience. So, he-as removed a lot of the fear and wished the safety, and Ali-asws was fearful without wishes and hisas matter is attributed to the Revelation so it Obligated the following, and Ali-asws is upon other than that. And Allah-azwj Praised upon Ibrahim-as in sixty-five places, its first being: And when his Lord Tested Ibrahim [2: 124], and its last: The Parchments of Ibrahim and Musa [87: 19]. And Allah-azwj Revealed a quarter of the Quran regarding Ali-asws, Is’haq–as and Ismail–as’’. [105] REGARDING HIS-asws EQUALITY WITH YAQOUB–as AND YUSUF–as
There were twelve sons for Yaqoub–as, the most beloved of them to him-saww being Yusuf–as and Benyamin–as, and for Ali-asws were seventeen sons, the most beloved of them to him-asws being Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws; and the youngest of his–as children was Lawy, because he–as took with the posterity of Ays, so the Prophet-hood came to be for him–as and for his–as children. During the absence, Yusuf–as was thrown into the well, for him–as, and Al-Husayn-asws was slaughtered, for Ali-asws. And Yaqoub–as was Tried with the separation of Yusuf–as, and Ali-asws was Tried with the slaughter of Al-Husayn-asws. Yusuf–as was not raised from Yaqoub–as and even though he–as was distanced from him–as, and the caliphate was not raised away from Ali-asws and even though it was distanced from him-asws for days. There was a house of sorrows for Yaqoubas, and for the Progeny-asws of the Prophet-saww is Karbala. And Yaqoub–as was returned the sight by the shirt of his–as son–as, and there was a shirt for Ali-asws from the weaving of (Syeda) Fatima-asws, he-asws saved himself-asws by it during the wars. And wolf spoke to Yaqoub–as, ‘The flesh of Prophets–as is Prohibited unto us’, and a snake spoke to Ali-asws upon the pulpit, and a wolf spoke to him-asws, and a lion as well. Yaqoub–as was named as such because he–as took with the posterity of his–as brother Ays, and Ali-asws was named as such because he-asws is exalted in his-asws affiliations, and his-asws lineage, and knowledge, and his-asws ascetic, and other than that. And for Yaqoub–as there were twelve sons, from them were obedience and from them were disobedient. And for Ali-asws there were twelve sons-asws, all of them-asws infallible, Purified. And his-asws equalness with Yusuf–as in things, Yusuf–as said: Lord! You have Given me from the kingdom [12: 101], and He-azwj Said regarding Ali-asws: And when you view, then you will see Blessings and a great Kingdom [76: 20]. And when the brothers (of Yusuf-as) were the Bounties and the perfection of the compassion (from the father-as), then envied him-asws, like that is the state of Ali-asws: Or are they envying the people upon what Allah has Given them from His Grace? [4: 54], so He-azwj Increased them both with exaltedness and nobility: And do not be coveting what Allah have Graced with some of you above the others. [4: 32]. And the brothers of Yusuf-as said in the apparent:
