It is unanimously agreed that `Ali was the most pious man

 

It is unanimously agreed that `Ali was the most pious man of his time in a way he had divorced the world three times (he had completely renounced the world).

He was fasting during days and worshipping during nights. He would break his fast with dried barley bread which he kept out of the reach of others putting a seal on it so that his sons, Hasan and Husayn, would not add fat or olive to it. A man who is detached from

الحَسَنِ؟أَسَائِرٌ أَنْتَ مَعِيَ أوْ لِغَيْرِ ذَلِكَ؟ فَقالَ لَهُ أمِيرُ المُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ: إنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَلْحَقَكَ وَأَقْبِضَ مِنْكَ الآيَاتِ مِنْ بَراءَةَ وَأُنْبِذُ بِهَا عَهْدَ المُشْرِكِينَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَأَمَرَنِي أنْ أُخَيِّرَكَ بَيْنَ أَنْ تَسيرَ مَعِي أوْ تَرْجِعَ إلَيْهِ. فَقالَ: بَلْ أَرْجِعُ إلَيْهِ. وَعَادَ إلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ: يَا رَسولَ اللهِ إنَّكَ أَهَّلْتَنِي لأَِمْرٍ طَالَتِ الأَعْنَاقُ فِيهِ إلَيَّ فَلَمَّا تَوَجَّهْتُ إلَيْهِ رَدَدْتَنِي عَنْهُ؛ أَنَزَلَ فِيَّ القُرْآنُ؟ فَقالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ: لاَ، وَلِكَنَّ الأَمِينَ هَبَطَ إلَيَّ عَنِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجلَّ بِأَنَّهُ لاَ يُؤَدّي عَنْكَ إلاَّ أَنْتَ أَوْ رَجُلٌ مِنْكَ، وَعَلِيٌّ مِنِّي وَلا يُؤَدِّي عَنِّي إلاَّ عَلِيٌّ.

حَدَّثَ الزُّبَيْرُ بْنُ بَكَّارِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ العَوَّامِ وَكَانَ مِنْ بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: إنِّي لأُمَاشِي عُمَرَ بْنَ الخَطَّابِ فِي سِكَّةٍ مِنْ سِكَكِ المَدِينَةِ إذ قَالَ لِي: يَا بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ مَا أَظُنُّ صَاحِبَكَ إلاَّ مَظْلوماً. قُلتُ: فَارْدُدْ ظُلامَتَهُ. فَانْتَزَعَ يَدَهُ مِنْ يَدِي وَمَضَى وَهُوَ يُهَمْهِمُ سَاعَةً ثُمَّ وَقَفَ فَلَحِقْتُهُ فَقالَ: يَا بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ مَا أَظُنُّهُمْ مَنَعُوها مِنْهُ إلاَّ لأَنَّهُمُ اسْتَصْغَرُوهُ. فَقُلْتُ: واللهِ مَا اسْتَصْغَرَهُ اللهُ حِينَ أَمَرَهُ أنْ يَأْخُذَ سُورَةَ بَراءَةٍ مِنْ صَاحِبِكَ. قَالَ: فَأَعْرَضَ عَنِّي.

جَمْعُهُ بَيْنَ الفَضائِلِ المُتَضَادَّاتِ:

لاَ خِلافَ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ أنَّ أمِيرَ المُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ كَانَ أزْهَدَ أهْلِ زَمانِهِ، طَلَّقَ الدُّنْيَا ثَلاثاً.

وَكَانَ يَصُومُ النَّهَارَ وَيَقُومُ اللَّيْلَ وَيُفْطِرُ عَلَى جَرِيشِ الشَّعيرِ مِنْ غَيْرِ إِدامٍ وَخَتْمِهِ لِئَلاَّ يَأدُمَهُ الْحَسَنـانِ بِسَمْنٍ أوْ زَيْتٍ. وَمَنْ يَكُونُ بِهَذِهِ الْحَـالِ يَكُونُ ضَعيفَ القُوَّةِ فِي أَغْلَبِ

the worldly pleasures as such must be weak naturally and unable to tolerate the difficulties of life. However, thanks to the piety and detachment from world, he was so powerful that in the conquest of Khaybar, he took off the gate of the fort which seventy men could not hold up, threw it as far as a few meters away and made it a bridge for the Muslims to cross. Imam `Ali (a.s) used most of his time in the battlefields putting the enemies of Islam under his sword. A person like this must be stone-hearted as a rule but Amir al-Mu’minin was not as such. On the contrary, he was tender-hearted, kind and good-tempered. For this reason, the hypocrites considered this characteristic of him as witticism and used to say: He is full of witticism.[235]
