'''Ali ibn Abi Talib''' (عَلِيّ ٱبْن أَبِي طَالِب) was [[Muhammad]]'s cousin and son-in-law, and was the fourth of the "four rightly guided [[caliph]]<nowiki/>s." [[Shias|Shia]] Muslims, emphasizing his status as a member of the prophet's family or "household" (''ahl al-bayt''), consider him the first Imam and rightful successor to Muhammad. | |||

{{Quote|{{Al Tirmidhi||6|46|3713}}|Narrated Abu Sarihah, or Zaid bin Arqam - Shu'bah had doubt: | |||
from the Prophet (ﷺ): '''"For whomever I am his Mawla then 'Ali is his Mawla."''' <br> Grade: Sahih (Darussalam)}}{{Quote|{{Al Tirmidhi||6|46|3719}}|Narrated Hubshi bin Junadah: that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: '''"'Ali is from me and I am from 'Ali.

==The First ''Fitna'' (civil war)== | |||
Ali was one of the first of Muhammad's contemporaries to accept [[Islam]] and had great repute amongst Muhammad's followers. However, he was ultimately assassinated by the Kharijites during the civil war that erupted upon his ascension to the seat of the caliph. The Kharijites were not initially opponents of Ali's becoming caliph, but were instead defectors who had once sided with him against Mu'awiyah. | |||
[[Hadith|Hadiths]] and traditions that describe Ali and those attributed to him are among the most contested between [[Sunni]] and Shi'ite sources, owing to the strong political and theological stakes. | |||
==Ali's view on the Ahl al-Bayt== | |||
{{Quote|{{Muslim||1370d|reference}}. See also [https://web.archive.org/web/20150529140610/https://sunnah.com/muslim/20/24]|Ibrahim al-Taimi reported on the authority of his father: | |||
'Ali b. Abu Talib (Allah be pleased with him) addressed us and said: He who thinks that we (the members of the Prophet's family) read anything else besides the Book of Allah and this Sahifa (and he said that Sahifa was tied to the scabbard of the sword) tells a lie. (This Sahifa) contains (problems) pertaining to the ages of the camels and (the recompense) of the injuries, and it also records the words of the Prophet (ﷺ): Medina is a sacred territory from 'Ayr to Thaur (it is most probably Uhud). He who innovates (an act or practice) or gives protection to an innovator, there is a curse of Allah and that of His angels and that of the whole humanity upon him. Allah will not accept from him (as a recompense) any obligatory act or supererogatory act, and the responsibility of the Muslims is a joint responsibility; even the lowest in rank can undertake the responsibility (on behalf of others), and he who claims anyone else as his father besides his own father or makes one his ally other than the one (who freed him), there is a curse of Allah. that of His angels and that of the whole of mankind upon him. Allah will not accept the obligatory act of the supererogatery act (as a recompense) from him.}} | |||

{{Quote|{{Al Tirmidhi||3|15|1458}}|Narrated 'Ikrimah: That '''Ali burnt some people who apostasized from Islam'''. This news reached Ibn 'Abbas, so he (Ibn 'Abbas) said: "If it were me I would have killed them according to the statement of Messenger of Allah. The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever changes his religion then kill him.' And I would not have burned them because the Messenger of Allah said: 'Do not punish with the punishment of Allah.' So this reached 'Ali, and he said: "Ibn 'Abbas has told the truth." (Sahih)}} | {{Quote|{{Al Tirmidhi||3|15|1458}}|Narrated 'Ikrimah: That '''Ali burnt some people who apostasized from Islam'''.
