he Almighty answered,

hey are the Household of the Prophet (saw) and the assets of Prophet hood.

They are: Fatimah (s.a), her father (s.a.w), her husband (a.s) and her two sons (a.s)."

hen it comes to the Prophets (as), Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w), Imam Ali (a.s) and the rest of the Imams (a.s) who are the true leaders of guidance appointed by Allah (swt), Holy Qur'an and other topics of Islam, we can only talk about our knowledge but not describe it as perfectly and accurately as it is.

t's like a sea of knowledge and we have some of that sea water inside a cup where it belongs to us and thats our knowledge and understanding, not the way they perfectly are or can be described. We need to keep this in mind.

الّلهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَی مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ و عَجّل فَرَجَهم.

O Allah bless Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) & his household/family. And may You hasten their glad advent.

. Childhood, duration nearly ten years.

. Duration in the service of Prophet (saw), Nearly 23 years.

Duration of avoiding the Government machinery approx. 25 years.

. Duration of Apparent caliphate, 4 years nine months.

He was forced and obliged to avoid the interference in the caliphate machine.

Although he was nominated openly by Allah & the Prophet (saw) on various occasions including the feast of Zul Ashira.

Upon the day of Ghadeer khumm in the presence of nearly one hundred thousand pilgrim companions of the Prophet (saw), unfortunately after the sad demise of the Prophet (saw).

Some Muslims turned down the ordain of Allah (swt)'s Prophet by rejecting his caliphate creating a split and Ideological difference with the true school of Islamic Ideology presumed by the holy Prophet (saw).

If people knew from when Imam Ali (as) obtained the title of Amir al-Mu'minin, they wouldn't disagree with his position.

He was named Amir al-Mu'minin even before Prophet Adam (as) had soul blown into his body.

Unfortunately and heartbreakingly, There has been people in the history of Islam who completely ignored Prophet Muhammad (saw)'s sayings regarding Imam Ali (as).
