Imam `Ali in the Qur'an

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

There are many examples in the Holy Qur'an of Allah mentioning the Ahl'ul-Bayt (as) and Imam `Ali (as) in particular. The Suwar of the Qur'an were often revealed in response to specific events, trials and occasions in the life of Nabi Muhammad (sal) and pertinent issues in the Ummah. Accordingly specific names and the like are often not given in the Qur'an, as it was Revealed as a Guide to all peoples, relevant to all contexts and situations. It was not purported to be merely a history text or biography of the events and people who were behind the events that caused Allah to manifest these beautiful Ayaat.

So instead of saying "Your Wali is Allah, and Hu's Rasul, and `Ali; who established worship and paid the poor due while he was in Ruku’ in prayer," Allah takes the example of an act of Imam `Ali (as) and makes a general and universally relevant statement regarding the nature of the Imam's (as) example.

"Verily your Wali is Allah, and Hu’s Rasul, and those who believe; who establish worship and pay the poor due while they are in Ruku’ in prayer." Al-Qur’an, Surah 5:55

إِنَّمَا وَلِيُّكُمُ اللّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ الَّذِينَ يُقِيمُونَ الصَّلاَةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ الزَّكَاةَ وَهُمْ رَاكِعُونَ

005.055YUSUFALI: Your (real) friends are (no less than) Allah, His Messenger, and the (fellowship of) believers,- those who establish regular prayers and regular charity, and they bow down humbly (in worship).
PICKTHAL: Your guardian can be only Allah; and His messenger and those who believe, who establish worship and pay the poordue, and bow down (in prayer).

Salam Truth
Yes...the ALi that is dead now!
DOesnt his sayings help us to get closer more quick??? he has learnt how to know God in the Mohammad(AS) manner...and many more stuff
Now tell me....U think a dead cant help??!!
+ Imam Ali is not the only one...we have a alive Imam now...MAhdi(AS)...ask him and he will help u to get near to Allah!
have u hear this:
Ya vajihaan inda ALlah, Ishfa'ie lana indal Allah
and that will help u to recognize that Allah has some Abds(Slaves) that he loves them(Like his prophets)...if a prophet ask Allah to help a human what will ALlah say?
Is a prophet ,Nauzu biAllah, a sensualist so he ask Allah to help someone by his nafs(his bad ego,if he has one!!!!)...there are many more truth...just ask and if i can answer ,i will!
sorry 4 the english mistakes !
Peace and wasalam

I believe that Mohammed "peace be upoon him" and also all his companions after him including Ali are alive through thier teaching only but it's not logic to ask a direct help from dead people because no one can help you except Allah.

Allah promised us already:

[40:60] Your Lord says, "Implore Me, and I will respond to you. Surely, those who are too arrogant to worship Me will enter Gehenna, forcibly."

It's so clear but you are asking me to ignore Allah and go to ask his slaves !!!!!

Which Imam you are talking about? Where does he live? which country? Can i meet him?

Can you please give me more information about him?

Who told u that i,m asking them 4 help???
I said u can get near 2 God quicker with Their talkings and speeches...got it?!
Allah says(i dont know the address):
those who listen to sayings and use the best ones!(man yasme'oonal ghol va yatabeoonal ahsana)
you dont need to ask Prophets,imams or anyone else for help...you can use their help!

Where does he live? which country? Can i meet him?

Yes sure!!! go read Nahjul fasaha ,Nahjul bAllagha, sahife Sajaadiya that are from Mohammad(AS),Ali(AS) and Imam Sajjad(AS) respectively...it will make u busy 4 a while!
