    Imam Ali (a.s) was endowed with all the qualities that make a man great. He was not only great, he was regarded as asuperhuman, an ideal man. He was the paragon of virtue. He enjoyed fame for his piety and religious devotions. He was theembodiment of Islamic values. In his love of God and His Messenger, he was second to none. When praying to God, hisabsorption was so intense that he often lost consciousness. His mind was so sure that he could hold communion with God.He had learned the Holy Qur'an by heart, and he could quote appropriate verses to suit every occasion. He was most truthful

    and honest. He was most humble. He was simple in his habits. He avoided display and luxury. He lived the life of an ascetic.Even when he was Caliph he lived in an ordinary house. The door of his house remained open to everyone at all times. Hewas most generous. He was most liberal in giving charity. He always came to the help of those who were distressed andinvolved in any difficulty. He looked after widows and orphans as if they weremembers of his own household. He was a warrior, a general, and a manconspicuous for his bravery and valour. Indeed he was braver than any other man inhistory. He fought hundreds of duels in his lifetime, and in all such encounters hisrivals were worsted. In the various battles, he killed a record number of enemies.He was skilful swordsman and his sword never missed its mark. In the variousbattles that he fought, he never turned his back. In the battle of Uhud, he receivedso many wounds that the nurses were unable to dress them. He bore the pain withgreat patience. The people around him misunderstood him, yet he did not lose

    patience. He was most chivalrous, and forgiving. He would forgive even his worstenemies. He was a great scholar. His book Nahjl al-Balagah is a living proof of hisscholarship and erudition. There was a sense of humour about him, and sometimeshe said things in a lighter vein to bring home the point he had in mind. He was amaster of the simile and metaphor, and when bringing home a point he alwaysillustrated it with appropriate metaphors and similes. He was a great philosopher,and there was great depth in his thoughts which were expressed in his writing. Hewas known for his wisdom. Most of his wise sayings have attained the dimensions ofproverbs. He was a great orator. His sermons were most impressive. He was amaster of rhetoric. He is regarded as the father of Islamic learning. He has left adeep mark on Islamic theology. He was the father of Islamic jurisprudence. He wasin impartial judge and his famous judgments are the most valuable assets of Islamic

    jurisprudence. He was a skilful administrator. He introduced numerous reforms.He was an eminent political thinker for his political thought had an air of modernityabout it. The greatness of Imam Ali (a.s) as a man is multi-dimensional in character,and after the Holy Prophet (pbuh), he was the greatest Muslim whose memory ishonoured by Muslims all over the world.

    About the division of the community into factionsSo now, certainly, Allah did not break the neck of any unruly tyrant in this world except after allowing him time andopportunity and did not join the broken bone of any people (ummah) until He did not inflict calamity and distress uponthem. Even less than what sufferings and misfortunes have yet to fall upon you or have already befallen you are enough forgiving lessons. Every man with a heart is not intelligent, every ear does not listen and every eye does not see.I wonder, and there is no reason why I should not wonder, about the faults of these groups who have introduced alterationsin their religious pleas, who do not move on the footsteps of their Prophet nor follow the actions of the vicegerent. They donot believe in the unknown and do not avoid the evil. They act on the doubts and tread in (the way of) their passions. Forthem good is whatever they consider good and evil is whatever they consider evil. Their reliance for resolving distresses is onthemselves. Their confidence in regard to dubious matters is on their own opinions as if every one of them is the Leader(Imam) of himself. Whatever he has decided himself he considers it to have been taken through reliable sources and strongfactors.

    When Hazrat Fatima"s (s.a) birth was to take place, the Prophet (pbuh) toldKhadija (s.a) "Jabriel has given me the good news that this child which is going to be bornis a daughter and all the infallible Imams will be from her generation.Hazrat Fatima Zahra (s.a) was born on Friday the 20th of Jumad'ul-Sani, the fifth year ofHijrah, when Quraish were busy in constructing the building of Khana-e-Kaabah.Fatima (s.a) was brought up and trained in the family of Prophet (pbuh) and took

    advantage and share of the knowledge and wisdom of the Prophet (pbuh). She heard therecitation of Quran from the Prophet (pbuh) and leant it by heart, and got busy with theidea and concept of self training and becoming a complete and real human.

    The love between the father and daughter was not a one-way process; instead,Fatima (s.a) too immensely loved her father like he loved her. When Hazrat Khadija (s.a) died, she was not more than sixyears of age. After the death of her mother, She always looked after the comfort of her father at home. Fatima (s.a) was sucha daughter who constantly and stably followed the footsteps of her father. The streets and Masjid-e-Haram of Mecca werefull of those who teased, insulted and tortured the Prophet (pbuh). Whenever her respect worthy father returned home inthe injured condition, she would wash the blood off his sacred face and dress his wounds and encouraged him with her sweetconversation.

    At such times, when her father was a stranger in his own land and among his own people and he was all alone withall the relatives present, and secluded and lonely among all those who spoke the same language he spoke. Moreover, he wasall-alone during his struggle and combat against ignorance, idol worshipping and he was carrying the heavy responsibility ofpreaching on his own. Then it was only and only Fatima (s.a) who pleased and consoled the heart of her father with her

    sincere love and affection. She by accepting the Prophecy of her father strengthened his hopes. That is the reason why theProphet (pbuh) used to say, "May your father sacrifice his life upon you" or that he would call her the "mother of herfather". Because, she was like a mother for her father.

    Bahlool Dana (wisdom) proves the three facts to Abu Hanifa, Belief in Allah (Tawhid)

    Abu Hanifa was once teaching Islamic beliefs to his students. He was arguing and challenging the validity of some of thestatements which had been proclaimed by his teacher sixth Imam, Imam Jafar Sadiq (a.s). Bahlool Dana happened to bepresent as well. Abu Hanifa proclaimed that he could not agree with the three understated statements as made by sixth

    Imam, Imam Jafar Sadiq (a.s)The first one was that "Allah (swt) can never be seen." According to Abu Hanifa it was impossible for a thing to exist andyet be invisible! The second thing that sixth Imam, Imam Jafar Sadiq (a.s) had stated was that "Shaitan (Satan) will bethrown in the inferno of Hell which will scorch him bitterly." Abu Hanifa argued: "How it was possible for fire to hurt 'fire',the fact that Shaitan (Satan) was created from fire itself!" The third statement of sixth Imam, Imam Jafar Sadiq (a.s) was that"Man alone is responsible for his actions and Allah (swt) the most powerful - has nothing to do with his actions." "How is itpossible, when Allah (swt) alone guides the destiny of man without Whose will nothing can happen?" This was Abu Hanifa'sthird challenge.As soon as the speaker, Abu Hanifa, had made these three criticisms against his teacher sixth Imam, Imam Jafar Sadiq (a.s)Bahlool Dana got up, took a piece of brick and aiming at Abu Hanifa, let it go and cracked Abu Hanifa head.Bahlool Dana was caught and taken before the Judge for punishment. In his defense, he pleaded that he had done nothing elseexcept reply to the three criticisms which Abu Hanifa had made against sixth Imam, Imam Jafar Sadiq (a.s).

    The Judge asked him to explain as to how and why he chose to reply by hitting and injuring Abu Hanifa. Bahlool said, "Thisman claims that if Allah (swt) is there, then he must be seen. He is now complaining of pain in his head due to the brickhaving hurt him. If the pain is definitely there, can he show me where it is? Well! Just as pain can be there without being seenAllah (swt) also exists without being seen.""Secondly, Abu Hanifa says that fire cannot burn fire. It is a fact that man is made out of clay and this brick with which I hithis head is also made out of clay, if clay can inflict pain and hurt clay, why can't fire do the same to fire?""The third thing Abu Hanifa says is that man is not responsible for his own actions but Allah (swt) does all things. If this is so,then why does he want justice from you and why does he want me to be punished for hurting him? He might as well transferthe punishment to Allah (swt) Who, according to him - is responsible for all the actions of man!"Everyone in the court was stunned at this and Abu Hanifa was dumb founded - having nothing to say. So Bahlool Dana wasreleased without any punishment.

    Name: Ali bin Muhammad (a.s.)Mother: Samana al-MaghribiyaKunniyat (Patronymic): Abu al-Hasan al AskariLaqab (Title): Al HadiBirth: He was born at Madina in the year 212 A.H.Martyrdom: He died of poison in 254 A.H. at Samarrah (Sarmanra) in Iraqand is buried thereThe thirty three years of imamate of Imam Ali an-Naqi coincided with thecaliphate of the following six caliphs Mutasim bin Hrun, Wthiq binMutasim, Mutawakkil bin Mutasim, Muntasir bin Mutawakkil, Mustain,and Mutazz bin Mutawakkil.Wthiq bin Mutasim had a very promiscuous lifestyle, and had no time toharass the Shias and the Imams of the Ahlul Bayt. During his caliphate, alarge number of the descendants of Imam Ali (a.s.) had settled in Samarra,the Abbasid capital. But the peaceful days for the Alids and the Imam didnot last long. After Wthiq, his brother Mutawakkil, came to power. Mutawakkil was the most cruel of all the Abbasidcaliphs; he is comparable to Yazd bin Muwiyah of the Umayyads.Mutawakkil, on the one hand, started promoting the Shfii madhhab in order to distract the masses away from the Ahlul Bayt(a.s.) And, on the other hand, he intensified harassment of the Shias. He had such hatred for the Ahlul Bayt that in 236 A.H.he ordered the grave of Imam Husayn (a.s.) be leveled to the ground, and that the surrounding area be transformed into

    farmlands so that no trace of the grave be left. This all was done to stop the Shias from visiting (ziyrat) the graves of ImamHussain (a.s.) and the other martyrs of Karbala. But when Allh wishes to protect His light no human can do anything aboutit!The attempt to erase all traces of Imam Hussains grave angered many Muslims; people starting writing anti-Abbsid sloganson the walls. Opposition poets also expressed their feelings on this issue. A famous poem against Mutawakkil is given below:By Allh, if the Umayyids unjustly killed Hussain (a.s), son of the Prophets daughter, his cousins have committed a similarcrime for I swear that Hussains (a.s) grave has been erased.It seems that they regret for not participating in the massacre, so they now go after the grave!Mutawakkil enjoyed torturing the followers of the Ahlul Bayt(a.s); even the persons appointed by him as governor in Medinaand Mecca were instructed to prevent people from being kind and courteous towards the Ahlul Bayt(a.s). In 234 A.H.,Mutawakkil ordered Imam Ali an-Naqi (a.s.) to be brought from Medina to Samarra where he was placed in a house next tothe caliphs garrison. The Imam lived under constant surveillance until Mutawakkil was murdered by his own troops at theinstigation of his own son, Muntasir.Muntasir bin Mutawakkil reversed the policies of his father towards the Ahlul Bayt (a.s.); he was kind and generous to them;

    he returned the property of Fadak to the descendants of Imams Hasan and Hussain (a.s.). Unfortunately his caliphate did notlast for more than six months when he died in 248 A.H. Mustain came to power after Muntasir and continued the oppressivepolicies of his ancestors. But soon his own Turkish troops rebelled against him and pledged allegiance to Mutazz binMutawakkil whom they rescued from prison. Finally, Mustain was killed and Mutazz become the caliph.MartydomIt was during the reign of Mutazz bin Mutawakkil that Imam Ali an-Naqi (a.s) was martyred by poisoning.Mo'taz arranged for the poisoning of Imam through an ambassador and Imam was martyred on Monday 3rd Rajab 254 a.h.nobody except Imam Hassan Askeri (a.s.) was present at the time of his death. he gave his father ghusl and kafan and weptbitterly.

    Imam Mohammad Baqirs (A.S) Imamat:Born in Madina on Ist Rajab 57 Hijri (676 AD), died in Madina on 7th Zilhijja 114 Hijri (733 AD) at the age of 57 years. Period ofImamat 19 years.

    After the death of the 4th Imam in 95 Hijri, the caliphs in Damascus were so preoccupied with their conquests of foreign lands that

    they did not have time to worry about the people in Madina, their loyalties or their hostilities. They were also satisfied that theImams of the Ahlul Bayt (AS) would not divulge in any rebellion against them due to the most peaceful and quite life of the 4thImam Zainul Abedeen (AS). They left the people of Madina to their activities in some peace. This was the time Imams of AhlulBayt were waiting for. Our 5th Imam opened a school to teach Qur'an and Hadith as itwas taught by the Holy Prophet (pbuh) and Imam Ali (AS).

    Imam Muhammad Al-Baqir (AS) was said to have been high esteemed for his learningand eloquence as well as on account of his noble birth. According to Ibn Khalikan, theImam (AS) received the title of Baqir (Splitter of knowledge) due to his ampleknowledge of Deen and his enthusiasm to teach to other people. Many historians likeYakubi asserts that the Imam (AS) split open knowledge, that is scrutinized it and exam-ined the depths of it so that it can be spread to all people truly and correctly.

    In his life of respectable and scholarly retirement at Madina, the Imam (AS) was fre-

    quently called upon to explain particular teachings in regard to Imamate. A synopsis ofhis teaching in the Ma"athirul-Baqir is given in Cannon Sell"s Ithna Ashariya, an interest-ing part of which may well be quoted, as it shows the emphasis at this early period onthe intellectual and spiritual character of the Imamate.

    Imam Mohammad Baqirs (AS) Answers to his Companions:

    A man one day said to the Imam, "Was the Prophet (pbuh) heir to all the knowledge of the Prophets?" He replied, "Yes" then hewas asked whether he had inherited it. He said he had. He was then asked if he could raise the dead to life, restore sight to theblind, and cleanse the leper. He said yes, by valor of God, the most high. He therefore put his hand on the blind eyes of a man sit-ting next to him and prayed. The next moment the blind mans eyesight was restored. Many more such stories were told by vari-ous historians of the time.The Imam discoursed fully on many topics such as the nature of the soul and Nafs, the nature and attributes of God, the qualities of

    the Ulemas. He discouraged arguments about the divine nature, saying that it was not possible for men to understand it.One day a mu"tazili leader Wasil bin Ata asked the Imam what the anger of God meant. He said, it was simply punishment, butthat this anger was not to be compared to the anger of men. Gods nature did not change. He defined a Rasul as a prophet whohears the voice of the angel (of revelation) and sees the angel in a bodily form. A Nabi, he said, is a Prophet who also hears thevoice of the angel under the same conditions, but does not see him, and the Imams condition is like that of the Nabi but not likethat of the Rasul. He said that the Imams were pure and that the Ahlul Bayt (AS) were free from sin.

    Imam Ali (A.S)

    Said:

    That

    knowledge

    which remains

    only on your

    tongue is very

    superficial. Theintrinsic value

    of knowledge is

    that you act

    upon it.

    AN AYAAT OF THE MONTHAN AYAAT OF THE MONTHAN AYAAT OF THE MONTH

    Never let your enmity for anyone lead you into

    the sin of deviating from justice. Always be just:

    that is closest to being God-fearing.

    (al-Maidah 5:8)
