Thus, if you identify and recog\u00adnize him, you shall realize that he is my Father -saww and not the father of any of your women; the brother of my cousin (Ali -asws ) rather than any of your men. Can there be an epitome of goodness in the entire universe other than the one associated with The Prophet -saww ?

\n Thus, He -saww propagated the Message, by coming out openly with the warning, and while inclined away from the path of the polytheists, whom he struck their strength and seized their throats, while he invited all to the way of his Lord -azwj with wisdom and virtuous preaching. He -saww destroyed idols, and defeated protagonists, until their group fled and turned their backs.

So night revealed its dawn; righteousness uncovered its genuineness; the voice of the religious authority spoke out loud; the evil discords were silenced; the tightening of infidelity and desertion were untied.

So you spoke the statement of devotion amongst a band of starved ones and you were on the edge of a hole of fire; you were the drink of the drinkers; the opportunity of the desiring one; the fire brand of him who passes in haste; You had fallen lower than the dirt under the feet; you used to drink from the water gathered on roads; eat jerked meat. You were despised outcasts always in fear of abduction from those around you.

\n Yet, Allah -azwj rescued you through my father, Hazrat Muhammad -saww after much ado, and after He -saww was confronted by mighty men, the Arab beasts, and the demons of the people of the Book Who, whenever they ignited the fire of war, Allah -azwj extinguished it and whenever the thorn of the devil appeared, or a mouth of the polytheists opened wide in defiance, He -saww would strike its discords with His brother Ali -asws , who comes not back until He -asws treads its wing with the sole of His feet, and extinguishes its flames with His sword.

Ali -asws is diligent in Allah -azwj ‘s affairs, near to the Messenger of Allah -azwj , a master among Allah -azwj ‘s worshippers, setting to work briskly, sincere in His advice, earnest and exerting Himself in service to Islam. \n While you were calm, happy and feeling safe in your comfort\u00adable lives, waiting for us (Ahlulbayt -asws ) to meet calamities.

You aspired for adversities to fall upon the Prophet\u2019s Ahlulbayt -asws ; like foes you desired and yearned for the demise of The Prophet -saww and craved for the calamities and grievances to strike us.
