Each new Prophet has cancelled some of the previous laws by a new divine law as the nations would progress. In Principle they have called people to theism and it was applied to all attainments and virtues. There were among them five arch-Prophets, who had missions for the whole world. They were Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus Christ and Muhammad, peace be upon them all.

Although the history says that Imam ‘Ali was the fourth caliph of Islam but according to the reliable traditions of the great scholars of Sunni and Shia, the Prophet of Islam had appointed him as his successor and also his executor.

He was educated by the Prophet since childhood and had accompanied him step by step and at the time when the verses of Qur’an would come down from Heavens he was present with the Prophet and he perceived the interpretation of the verses directly by the Prophet (S). Therefore he learned the whole virtues and the good qualities, and consequently his words and deeds conformed to the Holy Qur’an and the Holy Qur’an acted upon him more than anyone else.

He who likes to understand Islam has to study Imam ‘Ali’s life carefully to react to the stimulus of civilized Islam. Therefore Imam ‘Ali's words and deeds are perfect examples for the different classes of people especially the leaders and the statesmen. As it was said earlier, there are many corruptions and crimes all over the world.
