Ali(R) was the son of the prophet's uncle Abuthalib and the husband of prophet's dearest daughter Fathima (R). He embraced Islam at the age of 10th and he became first child coming to Islam. Ali(R) become ready to sacrifice his life by lying in the bed of prophet while the enemies surrounded the house of prophet (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him). When prophet migrated from holy Makkah to holy Madina he entrusted Ali all 'Amanath' to give them away. Within days he did so and went to holy Madina. He fought with prophet in all wars except 'Thabuk' war. At the time of 'Thabuk' war prophet asked him to stay in holy Madina as his representative. He was well known for his bravery, scholarship and his oratory. Prophet had said that Ali would be his friend in both worlds.

Administration of Ali

When Uthman(R) was died the companions of Rasulullah selected Ali(R) as the next caliph. He worked had to prevail peace and justice in the country. Some people turned against him alleging that he was negligent in nabbing the murderers of Uthman(R). He argued that could be possible only after a peaceful atmosphere was created. Over this split 'Jamal' and 'Siffin' wars happened. Ali(R) won the 'Jamal war'. 'Siffin war' was ended through the discussions of mediators. But another group came out declaring that obliging the mediator's mission was against Qur'an. These groups were called 'Khawarijs'. Ali(R) appointed Abdullah bin Abbas to resist Khawarijs. Most of them came back to truth. Others were making troubles organizing themselves at 'Nehruvan war'. Most of the Khawarijs were killed and others escaped. One of the escaped Khawarijs stabbed morally on Ali's (R) forehead while he was going to the down prayer. After three days of his injure he passed away. Prophet(PBH) had warned that the one who stabbed Ali (R) would be the most unlucky.
