Selections from a long narration as narrated from Imam Ali Rida (عليه السلام), from His father Musa ibn Jafar (عليه السلام), from His father Jafar bin Muhammad al-Sadiq (عليه السلام), from His father Muhammad bin Ali al-Baqir (عليه السلام), from His father Ali ibn al-Husayn Zayn al-Aabideen (عليه السلام), from His father al-Husayn ibn Ali (عليه السلام), from His father Amir al-Momineen (عليه السلام) who said that the Prophet of Allah (صلى الله عليه وآله) gave a sermon one day (on the advent of month of Ramdan):

قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ: فَقُمْتُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا أَفْضَلُ الأَعْمَالِ فِي هَذَا الشَّهْرِ؟فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا الْحَسَنِ أَفْضَلُ الأَعْمَالِ فِي هَذَا الشَّهْرِ الْوَرَعُ عَن مَحَارِمِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ. ثُمَّ بَكَى. فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا يُبْكِيكَ؟ فَقَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ أَبْكِي لِمَا يَسْتَحِلُّ مِنْكَ فِي هَذَا الشَّهْرِ. كَأَنِّي بِكَ وَأَنْتَ تُصَلِّي لِرَبِّكَ وَقَدِ انْبَعَثَ أَشْقَى الأَوَّلِينَ شَقِيقُ عَاقِرِ نَاقَةِ ثَمُودَ فَضَرَبَكَ ضَرْبَةً عَلَى قَرْنِكَ فَخَضَبَ مِنْهَا لِحْيَتَكَ.قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَذَلِكَ فِي سَلامَةٍ مِنْ دِينِي؟فَقَالَ‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ فِي سَلامَةٍ مِنْ دِينِكَ

 ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ مَنْ قَتَلَكَ فَقَدْ قَتَلَنِي وَ مَنْ أَبْغَضَكَ فَقَدْ أَبْغَضَنِي وَ مَنْ سَبَّكَ فَقَدْ سَبَّنِي لِأَنَّكَ مِنِّي كَنَفْسِي رُوحُكَ مِنْ رُوحِي وَ طِينَتُكَ مِنْ طِينَتِي إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى خَلَقَنِي وَ إِيَّاكَ وَ اصْطَفَانِي وَ إِيَّاكَ وَ اخْتَارَنِي لِلنُّبُوَّةِ وَ اخْتَارَكَ لِلْإِمَامَةِ فَمَنْ أَنْكَرَ إِمَامَتَكَ فَقَدْ أَنْكَرَ نُبُوَّتِي يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْتَ وَصِيِّي وَ أَبُو وُلْدِي وَ زَوْجُ ابْنَتِي وَ خَلِيفَتِي عَلَى أُمَّتِي فِي حَيَاتِي وَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِي أَمْرُكَ أَمْرِي وَ نَهْيُكَ نَهْيِي أُقْسِمُ بِالَّذِي بَعَثَنِي بِالنُّبُوَّةِ وَ جَعَلَنِي خَيْرَ الْبَرِيَّةِ إِنَّكَ لَحُجَّةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى خَلْقِهِ وَ أَمِينُهُ عَلَى سِرِّهِ وَ خَلِيفَتُهُ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ‌

Imam Ali (عليه السلام) said, “I asked the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله), What are the best deeds to perform during this month (Ramadan)?”

The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله) replied, “O Abu Al-Hasan (عليه السلام), the best deeds to perform during this month are to avoid the prohibitions of Allah (عز وجل).'

Then the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله) cried. I asked him, “What makes you cry?”

The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله) replied, “O Ali (عليه السلام), I weep for what will happen to You during this month. It will be as if I see you praying to your Lord, and the most wretched of the first ones, the one who hamstrung the she-camel of Thamud, will strike you on the head with a blow that will dye your beard with your own blood.”

Imam Ali (عليه السلام) said, “I asked the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله), “Will my religion remain intact in this situation?”

The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله) said, “Your religion will be intact.”

The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله) then added, "O Ali (عليه السلام), Whoever kills you has indeed killed me. Whoever hates you has indeed hated me. Whoever insults (use abusive language against) you have indeed insulted me. This is because you are from me and just like myself. Your spirit is from my spirit. Your clay is from my clay. In fact, Allah (عز وجل) has created me and you and selected me and you. Allah chose me for the Prophethood and chose you for the Imamat (Divine Leadership). Whoever denies your Imamat has, in fact, denied my Prophethood. O Ali (عليه السلام)! You are my Trustee, the father of my grandchildren, the spouse of my daughter, My Caliph over my nation during and after my life. Your orders are my orders. Your prohibitions are my prohibitions. I swear by Him who has sent me with Prophethood and established me as the best of the people, that you are Allah’s Proof upon His creatures, the one entrusted with His Secrets and His Successor over His servants."

حدثنا محمد بن أحمد السناني رضي الله عنه قال حدثنا محمد بن أبي عبد الله الكوفي قال: حدثنا محمد بن أبي بشر قال حدثنا الحسين بن الهيثم عن سليمان بن داود عن علي بن غراب قال حدثنا ثابت بن أبي صفية، عن سعد بن ظريف عن الأصبغ ابن نباتة قال: قلت لأمير المؤمنين " ع " ما منعك من الخضاب وقد اختضب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله قال: انتظر أشقاها ان يخضب لحيتي من دم رأسي بعد عهد معهود أخبرني به حبيبي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله.

Narrated that Asbagh bin Nobatah asked Amir al-Momineen (عليه السلام): 

What has prevented you from not applying dye while the Holy Prophet (ص) used to apply it?

Imam (ع) replied: I am waiting for the most wretched person to dye my beard with the blood of my head as per a certain covenant about which my beloved Messenger of Allah (ص) had informed me.

Hadith 3:

ونادى جبرئيل عليه السلام بين السماء والارض بصوت يسمعه كل مستيقظ: " تهدمت والله أركان الهدى، وانطمست والله نجوم السماء و أعلام التقى، وانفصمت والله العروة الوثقى، قتل ابن عم محمد المصطفى، قتل الوصي المجتبى، قتل علي المرتضى، قتل والله سيد الاوصياء، قتله أشقى الاشقياء " قال: فلما سمعت ام كلثوم نعي جبرئيل فلطمت على وجهها وخدها وشقت جيبها و صاحت: وا أبتاه وا علياه وامحمداه واسيداه

Describing the event of Martyrdom of Imam Ali (عليه السلام):

Narrated that: Jibreel called out from between the sky and the earth, and all who were awake heard him:

By Allah (عز وجل), the pillars of guidance have been demolished. 

The stars of the sky and signs of the pious have been extinguished. 

By Allah (عز وجل), the rope of Allah (swt) has been cut. 

The cousin of Mohammad al-Mustafa (صلى الله عليه وآله) has been killed.

The guardian al-Mujtaba has been killed. Ali al-Murtaza (عليه السلام) has been killed. 

By Allah (عز وجل) the chief of the guardians has been killed. 

He was killed by the most wretched of all the wretched."

When Umm-Kulsoom (عليها السلام) heard the announcement of Jibraeel , She hit her face and her cheek, tore the side of her dress and screamed ‘O Father, O Ali (عليه السلام), O Mohammad (صلى الله عليه وآله) ..

Hadith 4:

فَقامَ إلَيهِ حُجرُ بنُ عَدِيٍّ الطّائِيُّ وقالَ

فَيا أسفى عَلَى المَولَى التَّقِيِّ أبو الأَطهارِ حَيدَرَةُ الزَّكِيِّ 

قَتلَهُ كافِرٌ حَنِثٌ زَنيمٌ لَعينُ فاسِقٌ نَغِلٌ شَقِيِّ

فَيَلَعَنُ رَبُّنا مَن حادَ عَنكُم ويبَرَأ مِنكُمُ لَعناً وَبِيِّ 

لِأَنَّكُمُ بِيَومِ الحَشرِ ذُخري وأنتُم عِترَةُ الهادِي النَّبِيِّ

Hujr bin Adee after seeing Imam Ali (ع) injured recited the following words of poetry:

"O My sadness upon the pious Master, the father of the Pure Ones, Haider the Pure,

Killed Him a disbeliever (Kafir), liar, evil, immoral, illegitimate born, wretched,

So, my Lord curses those who deviate away from You and those who stay away (do Bar’a) from You and so do I curse,

Because You are what I have gathered/preserved for the day of gathering (judgement) and You are the family of the guiding Prophet ص"

Hadith 5:

فَدَخَلتُ عَلى أميرِ المُؤمِنينَ عليه السلام فَإِذا هُوَ مُستَنِدٌ ، مَعصوبُ الرَّأسِ بِعِمامَةٍ صَفراءَ ، قَد نُزِفَ واصفَرَّ وَجهُهُ ، ما أدري وَجهُهُ أصفَرُ أمِ العِمامَةُ ، فَأَكبَبتُ عَلَيهِ فَقَبَّلتُهُ وبَكَيتُ ، فَقالَ لي : لا تَبكِ يا أصبَغُ ؛ فَإِنَّها وَاللّه ِ الجَنَّةُ ، فَقُلتُ لَهُ : جُعِلتُ فِداكَ ، إنّي أعلَمُ وَاللّه ِ أنَّكَ تَصيرُ إلَى الجَنَّةِ ، وإنَّما أبكي لِفِقداني إيّاكَ يا أميرَ المُؤمِنينَ

Part of a long narration on the last meeting of Asbagh bin Nubatah with Imam Ali (عليه السلام)

Asbagh says, "I entered upon Amir al-Muminin (عليه السلام) and found him reclining (against a support) with his head wrapped in a yellow turban, having lost lot of blood and His face looking yellow. I could not understand whether His face was more yellow or the turban. So I leaned over Him, kissed Him, and cried."

The Imam said to me, "Do not cry, O Asbagh, for By Allah it is paradise."

I said to Him, "May I be sacrificed for you, I know for sure that You will go to paradise. I only cry for losing you, O Amir al-Muminin (عليه السلام)."

Hadith 6:

محمد بن يحيى، عن أحمد بن محمد، وعلي بن محمد، عن سهل بن زياد جميعا، عن ابن محبوب، عن أبي حمزة، عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: لما قبض أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام قام الحسن بن علي عليه السلام في مسجد الكوفة فحمد الله وأثنى عليه وصلى على النبي صلى الله عليه وآله ثم قال: أيها الناس إنه قد قبض في هذ الليلة رجل ما سبقه الأولون ولا يدركه الآخرون، إنه كان لصاحب راية رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله، عن يمينه جبرئيل وعن يساره ميكائيل، لا ينثني حتى يفتح الله له والله ما ترك بيضاء ولا حمراء إلا سبعمائة درهم فضلت عن عطائه، أراد أن يشتري بها خادما لأهله. والله لقد قبض في الليلة التي فيها قبض وصي موسى يوشع بن نون والليلة التي عرج فيها بعيسى ابن مريم، والليلة التي نزل فيها القرآن 

Narrated through a chain of reliable narrators from Imam Baqir (عليه السلام):

When Amir al-Momineen (عليه السلام) passed away, al-Hasan bin Ali (عليه السلام) stood in the mosque of Kufa and praised Allah and extolled Him, and sent blessings upon the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله), then said: 

"O People, Indeed in this night, a man has passed away, none from the past has gone ahead of Him and none from those to come will be able reach Him. 

He was the holder of the banner of the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وآله), with Jibrael on his right and Mikael on his left. 

He would not return back (from battle) until Allah granted him victory. 

By Allah, he did not leave behind any white or red (i.e., silver or gold) except for seven hundred dirhams that remained. He intended to buy a servant for his family with them. 

By Allah, he passed away on the night in which the successor of Musa, Yusha bin Nun had passed away, and the night in which Isa the son of Maryam was raised to the heavens, and the night in which the Quran was revealed."

Hadith 7:

Narrated that on the day Amir al-Momineen (عليه السلام) passed away, a person came at the door of the house of Amir al-Momineen (عليه السلام) and said,

وَأَفْضَلَهُمْ مَنَاقِبَ وَأَكْرَمَهُمْ سَوَابِقَ وَأَرْفَعَهُمْ دَرَجَةً وَأَقْرَبَهُمْ مِنْ رَسُولِ الله ﷺ وَأَشْبَهَهُمْ بِهِ هَدْياً وَخَلْقاً وَسَمْتاً وَفِعْلاً وَأَشْرَفَهُمْ مَنْزِلَةً وَأَكْرَمَهُمْ عَلَيْهِ

"And you were the best of them in virtues, and the noblest of them in precedence, and the highest of them in rank, and the closest of them to the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وآله), and the most similar to him in guidance, character, manners, and actions, and the most noble of them in status, and the most honored of them to him."

وَكُنْتَ أَخْفَضَهُمْ صَوْتاً وَأَعْلاهُمْ قُنُوتاً وَأَقَلَّهُمْ كَلاماً وَأَصْوَبَهُمْ نُطْقاً وَأَكْبَرَهُمْ رَأْياً وَأَشْجَعَهُمْ قَلْباً وَأَشَدَّهُمْ يَقِيناً وَأَحْسَنَهُمْ عَمَلاً وَأَعْرَفَهُمْ بِالامُورِ

"And you were the softest (most humble) of them in voice, the highest of them in devotion (qunūt), the least of them in speech, the most correct of them in speaking, the greatest of them in opinion/insight, the bravest of them in heart, the strongest of them in certainty (yaqeen), the best of them in deeds, and the most knowledgeable of them of matters."

كُنْتَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَباً رَحِيماً إِذْ صَارُوا عَلَيْكَ عِيَالاً

"You were to the believers a kind father when they became dependents upon you."
