The same previous statement of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) is also narrated from Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him).

Hazrat Najiyah bin Ka'b (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When Abu Talib passed away, I went to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)! Indeed, your old misguided uncle has passed away." So the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "You go and bury him. Then do not do anything further until you come to me." He (may Allah be pleased with him) says: So I buried him. Then I came to the Prophet (peace be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) instructed me to take a bath. So I took a bath, then the Prophet (peace be upon him) made some supplications for me. I would not like to have such-and-such things on earth in exchange for those supplications for me.

Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: You are from me and I am from you.

Hazrat Zaid bin Yathi’ narrates that Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) received news that some people were saying certain things about him. So he (may Allah be pleased with him) ascended the pulpit and said: I adjure by Allah any companion of Muhammad ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) who heard anything from the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) about me, let him stand up. So about six people stood up, and among them was Hazrat Sa’eed bin Wahb (may Allah be pleased with him) as the sixth. Then all of them said: We bear witness that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever I am a friend to, Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) is also his friend. O Allah! Befriend whoever befriends him, and be the enemy of whoever is hostile to him.

Hazrat Abu Yazid Al-Awdi, may Allah have mercy on him, narrates that his father, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Hazrat Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, came to the mosque, so we gathered around him. Then a young man stood up and said to him: I ask you by Allah, did you hear the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say this: "Whoever's friend I am, Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, is also his friend. O Allah! Befriend whoever befriends Ali, and be the enemy of whoever is hostile to him?" He (Abu Hurairah) replied: Yes! Then the young man said: I disassociate myself from you. I bear witness that indeed you have shown enmity to the one who befriends him, and you have befriended the one who is hostile to him. The narrator says: Then the people pelted that young man with pebbles.

Hazrat Abdullah bin Shaddad (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a delegation from the Sarh tribe of Yemen came to the service of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to them: You must absolutely establish prayer and pay zakat. And listen and obey. Otherwise, I will send to you a man who is like me; he will fight your fighters and take your children as captives. By Allah! He is either me or someone like me. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took the hand of Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him).

Hazrat Asim bin Damrah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates: When Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was martyred, Hazrat Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) delivered a sermon in which he said: O people of Kufa, or he said: O people of Iraq! Indeed, there was a man among you who was martyred at night, or he said: who passed away today. Those before him did not surpass him in knowledge, nor will those after him attain his knowledge. Whenever the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent him in any army, Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him) would be on his right side and Hazrat Mikaeel (peace be upon him) on his left side. Thus, that person would not return until Allah Almighty granted him victory.

Hazrat Amr bin Murrah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that when people mentioned things about Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) in the presence of Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila (may Allah have mercy on him), he said: We have sat together, we have eaten and drunk together. And we are pleased with his deeds, so I have never heard the things that people say. Surely, it is enough for you that you say this: He is the cousin of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and his son-in-law. He was present at the occasion of Bay'at al-Ridwan and participated in the Battle of Badr.

Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Surely, today I will definitely give the flag to a person who loves Allah and His Messenger (peace be upon him)." The narrator says: So people started raising their feet to show themselves. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Where is Ali (may Allah be pleased with him)?" People submitted: "He has pain in both his eyes." The Prophet (peace be upon him) called him and put his blessed saliva in his palm and rubbed it on both eyes of Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) gave him the flag. Thus, on that very day, Allah granted him victory.

Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that while a group of the companions was present with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the Prophet (peace be upon him) sent a message to his wives for food, but none of his wives had anything to eat. Suddenly, Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) appeared from the front, covered in dust and in a disheveled state, with nearly a sa’ (a measure) of dates on his shoulder, which he had earned through labor. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Welcome to the one who carries the burden and to the burden he carries." Then he (peace be upon him) seated him near himself and brushed the dust from his head, then said: "Welcome, O Abu Turab!" Then he brought the dates close, until everyone ate to their fill. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a portion of it to all his pure wives as well.
