((Imam Ali (peace be upon him), the Commander of the Faithful, is the light and direction of faith and guidance for every believer who turns to pray towards the Holy Kaaba. When a Muslim turns his body towards the Kaaba during his prayers, he is turning towards the spiritual light that radiates from within it. God - Glory be to Him - wanted the birth of Imam Ali (peace be upon him) has the unique, blessed, and special place inside the Kaaba to make it a miracle, a sign, a sign, and a symbol of faith, piety, and justice. And how desperate is everyone who turns to the Holy Kaaba, the direction of prayer, to feel in his heart that he is heading toward the direction of faith, the path to the straight path.)
Imam Ali (peace be upon him) is the shortest, fastest and most effective way to reach the pleasure of God - Glory be to Him - and achieve prosperity and success. Imam Ali (peace be upon him) is a qiblah, and the qiblah is the direction, and it has a religious meaning, and it is the direction to which the Muslim faces during prayer. At the beginning, it should be emphasized that the Holy Kaaba in Mecca is the only qibla for Muslims, in compliance with the command of God - Glory be to Him - this is a settled matter. The Holy Kaaba has been honored by God - the Almighty - and made it a qibla for Muslims, towards which every Muslim must turn during every prayer. Imam Ali (peace be upon him) is a light and a direction of faith for believers to obtain spiritual light and guidance.
What is meant by the qiblah is the direction, direction, and path, as Imam Ali (peace be upon him) is the direction and path of true faith. One of the places where the word qibla is mentioned in the Noble Qur’an is in the Noble Verse, when God Almighty said in His Noble Book: "And We revealed to Moses and his brother, ‘Reside in houses for your people in Egypt, and make your houses a direction of direction and establish prayer, and give good news to the believers” [Yunus: 87]. The verse clearly refers to a matter May God grant the people of Israel to make the house of the Prophet of God, Moses, and the house of his brother Aaron, a qibla. What is meant here is a destination and a way to draw closer to God.
Whoever belongs to authentic Muhammadan Islam, adheres to and adheres to its directives, as he (may God’s prayers and peace be upon him and his family) said about Imam Ali (peace be upon him) in a hadith known as the hadith of status: "You are to me as Aaron was to Moses, except that there is no prophet after me.” According to the hadith of the Messenger of God (PBUH), Ali (PBUH) is to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in the same position as Aaron to Moses in everything: faith, morals, knowledge, and upbringing... except for prophecy, as there is no prophet after him. If Aaron was a direction and guidance (qibla) for the pleasure of God, then Imam Ali (peace be upon him), who is in the same position as Aaron to Moses, is a path, direction, light, guidance, and direction for the pleasure of God. Rather, it represents the best and quickest way to obtain the pleasure of God - Glory be to Him - after the Messenger of God (PBUH), as it is the door of knowledge and the direction of faith. The Messenger of God (PBUH) said: (I am the city of knowledge and Ali is its gate. Whoever wants knowledge should come to the gate). He (PBUH) said: (I am the abode of wisdom and Ali is its gate). He also said (PBUH): (I am the city of wisdom and Ali is its gate).
* Imam Ali Walid the Kaaba *
One of the blessings of Imam Ali Al-Murtada - peace be upon him - is that he was born in the interior of the Holy Kaaba in the Sacred House of God, so that it would increase more light, and in his birth there is more than one indication of the connection of the Holy Kaaba with Imam Ali (peace be upon him), for they are both qibla, so the Kaaba is a qibla for prayer and Imam Ali is a qibla for faith. The birth of Imam Ali (peace be upon him) in the interior of the Holy Kaaba is a miracle by divine will, which results in specialness for the newborn and draws attention to creation that the newborn is chosen, chosen, unique and special, as no one was born before or after him and the wall of the Holy Kaaba split open to receive his birth.
Being born inside the Holy Kaaba is not just a coincidence, but rather a unique miracle, distinction, honor, choice and selection by the Creator - the Almighty - for His servant, the Commander of the Faithful, Imam Ali Al-Murtada - peace be upon him - to be unique and distinguished among the people since his birth, as he is the guardian Imam, guardian and caliph. After the Messenger of God (may God bless him and his family and grant them peace), there are inevitably great goals from his birth in the Holy Kaaba.
One of the characteristics of Imam Ali (peace be upon him) is that his love is a sign of faith (the believer), and his hatred is a sign of hypocrisy (the hypocrite), as the Prophet (peace be upon him) said to him: "Your love is faith and your hatred is hypocrisy.” Turning to the Holy Kaaba as a qibla in prayer in compliance with the command of God - Glory be to Him - to perform prayers, and to seek His pleasure out of obedience and response to the request of the Creator - Glory be to Him - even though it is an inanimate material, just a building of stone and clay. However, the Qiblah of the Holy Kaaba emanates from it the light of spirituality of faith, and how beautiful and wonderful it is for a Muslim to be aware when he turns to the Holy Kaaba to seek nourishment from the light of spirituality of faith, including the light of Ali Ibn Abi Talib (peace be upon him)... The Holy Kaaba has become more and more honorable with his light (peace be upon him).
Whoever knows Ali will not be surprised at all that he is the direction and address of the people of faith, the Commander of the Faithful, and the Imam of the pious. Since no one knows Ali - peace be upon him - and his status, knowledge, faith and justice (peace be upon him) except God - Glory be to Him - and His Messenger (peace be upon him), according to what was narrated on the authority of the Messenger of God (peace be upon him) when he said: "No one knows you, O Ali, as I truly know you except God and me.” Just as no one knows God - the Almighty - and the Messenger of God (PBUH) except Ali (PBUH), according to what was stated on the authority of our master, the greatest Messenger Muhammad (PBUH), when he said: "O Ali, no one knew God except me and you, and no one knew me except God and you. And no one knows you except God and me.” And he (PBUH) said: "O Ali, no one has truly known God except me and you, and no one has truly known you except God and me.”
One of the characteristics and distinctions of Imam Ali (peace be upon him) is that the greatest Messenger (peace be upon him) is his educator. He is the one who took care of him after his birth, supervised his upbringing and education, and made him the door of his knowledge. He (peace be upon him) guided and directed that whoever wants knowledge and knowledge should come to it through its door, and he is Ali Ibn Abi. Talib (peace be upon him) said (peace be upon him): "I am the city of knowledge and Ali is its gate. Whoever wants the city, let him come to the gate.”
Imam Ali (peace be upon him) is the kiss of knowledge, the kiss of faith, the kiss of culture, the kiss of literature, and the kiss of courage. It is the Qibla for Muslims and believers after the Messenger of God (may God bless him and his family and grant them peace), and it will remain the Qibla of faith and believers until the day they are resurrected.
Imam Ali (peace be upon him) is the Commander of the Faithful and he is the symbol of faith and he is the direction of guidance for every believer who heads to pray towards the Holy Kaaba, to be nourished with the light and spirituality of Ali (peace be upon him). When a Muslim turns his body towards the Kaaba during his prayers, he is heading towards the spiritual light that radiates from within it. The Light of Faith God - Glory be to Him - wanted that unique, blessed and special birth in the interior of the Kaaba to make Ali a miracle, a sign, a sign, and a symbol of faith, piety, and justice.
Everyone who turns to the Holy Kaaba, the direction of prayer, is in dire need of feeling in his heart that he is heading to the direction of faith and the path that leads to the straight path.
Congratulations to everyone who loves, follows, and follows the path of Imam Ali (peace be upon him), the Qibla of faith, the Commander of the Faithful, the Master of Muslims, the Imam of the pious, the leader of the venerable, the dragonfly of religion, and the voice of human justice... who was born in the interior of the Holy Kaaba and was martyred in the prayer niche, so that his entire life would be linked to the Qibla of prayer, the Holy Kaaba. ; He was born inside it and was martyred heading there. May God’s peace be upon you, O Abu Al-Hasan, O Commander of the Faithful, and the kiss of the people of faith on the day you were born, the day you were martyred, and the day you will be resurrected alive.
