It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of the Battle of Khandaq, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "May Allah fill their (the polytheists') houses and graves with fire, for they did not let us perform the Asr prayer until the sun had set."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) decided that "the payment of the deceased's debt will be made before the execution and implementation of the will," whereas in the Qur'an, the mention of the will comes before the debt, and that "uterine brothers will be heirs but consanguine brothers will not be heirs." A person's full brother will be his heir, but a brother sharing only the father will not be an heir. Benefit: A brother sharing only the mother is called 'ukhiyafi' and a brother sharing only the father is called 'ilati'.

Nazzal bin Sabrah says that once after the Zuhr prayer, a jug of water was brought to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). He was in the courtyard of the mosque. He drank that water while standing and said: Some people consider this disliked, but I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) doing it just as you have seen me doing it. Then he wiped with the remaining water and said: The person who is not without ablution, but already has ablution, this is the ablution of such a person.

Once, the mention of the Khawarij was made in the presence of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), so he said: Among them there will be a man who is deformed in creation. If you had not gone to extremes, I would have told you the promise that Allah has made, through the tongue of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), to those who kill them. The narrator says: I asked him, "Did you really hear any statement from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding this?" He replied three times, "Yes! By the Lord of the Ka'bah."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O people of the Qur'an! Perform Witr, for Allah is Odd and He loves the odd number."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray two rak‘ahs after every obligatory prayer except Fajr and ‘Asr.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray two units of prayer after every obligatory prayer (except Fajr and Asr).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O people of the Qur'an! Perform Witr, for Allah is Odd and He loves the odd number."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that once, at night, when we had already lain down on our beds, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came, placed his blessed feet between me and Fatimah, and taught us to recite these words after lying down on the bed: "Say Subhan Allah thirty-three times, Alhamdulillah thirty-three times, and Allahu Akbar thirty-four times." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says that after that, I never abandoned these words. Someone asked: Not even on the night of Siffin? He replied: Yes! (not even then).

Huzain (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once Walid bin Uqbah led the people in the Fajr prayer and performed four rak'ahs instead of two. Then he turned to the people and said, "Perhaps I have increased the number of rak'ahs in the prayer?" This matter was presented before Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him), so he ordered the punishment for drinking wine to be carried out on Walid. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sayyiduna Imam Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him), "Hasan! Stand up and flog him." He said, "You cannot do this; order someone else to do it." He replied, "In reality, you have become weak and incapable, so Abdullah bin Ja'far! You stand up and carry out the punishment on him." Thus, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) kept flogging him and Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) kept counting. When forty lashes were completed, Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Stop. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) gave forty lashes to the one who drank wine, and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) also gave forty lashes, but Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) gave eighty lashes, and both are Sunnah."
