IMAM ALI (AS) AND QUR'ANIC VERSES - 1


One fourth of Qur’an had been revealed in praise of Imam A (as), The True Commander of the Faithful. Although, all the caliphs of Bani Umaiyya, Bani Abbas, and Bani Fatima were addressed by the title of ‘Amir-ul-Momineen’

Say (O Muhammad ) I do not ask for you any reward other than being kind to my kin, and who ever attains a good deed (being kind to them), We shall certainly increase him in  goodness; Verily Allah is Forgiving (to those who are kind to them), Appreciative (of such kindness) (42:23)
Then who ever argues with you about it after (this) knowledge has come to you Say  ( O Muhammad) Let us bring our sons and your sons, our women and your women, our selves and your selves, then supplicate earnestly (together) and invoke the curse of Allah upon the liars (among us) (3:61)
