He -saww got annoyed and said: ‘What is it about people who are mentioning him -asws whose status and standing with Allah -azwj is the same as my -saww status and standing, except for the Prophet-hood? ألا ومن أحب عليا فقد أحبني، ومن أحبني رضي الله عنه، ومن رضي الله عنه كافأه بالجنة Indeed! And the one who loves Ali -asws has loved me -saww , whoever has loved me -saww Allah -azwj is Pleased with him, and the one whom Allah -azwj is Pleased with will be Rewarded with the Paradise.

ألا ومن أحب عليا لا يخرج من الدنيا حتى يشرب من الكوثر، ويأكل من طوبى، ويرى مكانه من الجنة Indeed! And the one who loves Ali -asws will not exit the world until he has drunk from Al – Kawthar , and has eaten from the (tree of) Tooba , and has seen his place in the Paradise. ألا ومن أحب عليا قبل الله منه صلاته وصيامه وقيامه، واستجاب الله دعاءه Indeed!

And the one who loves Ali -asws , Allah -azwj will accept from him his Salat , his Fasts, and his standing (for the good deeds) and Allah -azwj will Answer his supplications. ألا ومن أحب عليا استغفرت له الملائكة، وفتحت له أبواب الجنة الثمانية يدخلها من أي باب شاء بغير حساب Indeed!
