Summary

As we dive into the final video on Ali Ibn Abi Talib RA, Shaykh Yasir Qadhi packs in various Hadith and sayings of this great Khalifa of Islam and also details are shared on the death of Ali RA. Although Ali enjoyed the staunch support of his people,Alī RA authority was weakened during the last two years of his Khilafat. A number of prominent Muslims even met in Adrūh with the thought of deposing both Alī and Muʿāwiyah and appointing Abdullāh as the next Khalifa. The Khārijites had made plans for the assassination of Alī, Muʿāwiyah, and ʿAmr ibn al-ʿAṣ. This decision was met with success as Ali RA was struck in the back of the head with a poisoned sword while praying in the Masjid of Kufa. He died two days later and was buried in Al-Najaf. We are also made to understand various Hadiths with regards to Ali Ibn Abi Talib RA: Narrated by Abu Hazim: A man came to Sahl bin Sad and said, "This is so-and-so," meaning the Governor of Medina, "He is calling 'Ali bad names near the pulpit." Sahl asked, "What is he saying?" He (i.e. the man) replied, "He calls him (i.e. 'Ali) Abu Turab." Sahl laughed and said, "By Allah, none but the Prophet called him by this name and no name was dearer to 'Ali than this." So I asked Sahl to tell me more, saying, "O Abu 'Abbas! How (was this name given to 'Ali)?" Sahl said, "'Ali went to Fatima and then came out and slept in the Mosque. The Prophet asked Fatima, "Where is your cousin?" She said, "In the Mosque." The Prophet went to him and found that his (i.e. Ali's) covering sheet had slipped of his back and dust had soiled his back. The Prophet started wiping the dust off his back and said twice, "Get up! O Abu Turab (i.e. O. man with the dust)." Narrated by Ubaida: Ali said (to the people of 'Iraq), "Judge as you used to judge, for I hate differences (and I do my best ) till the people unite as one group, or I die as my companions have died." And narrated Sad that the Prophet said to 'Ali, "Will you not be pleased from this that you are to me like Aaron was to Moses?" Narrated by 'Uqba bin Al-Harith: I saw Abu Bakr carrying Al-Hasan and saying, "Let my father be sacrificed for you; you resemble the Prophet and not 'Ali," while 'Ali was laughing at this.
