YAUM-E-HAZRAT ALI (RTA)
Today, November 1, 1998, (Rajab 13th) is Hazrat Ali's birthday anniversary. This day is celebrated throughout the Muslim world with great veneration. Mowlana Sultan Mahomed Shah's birthday is November 2, 1998, and so we have two good reasons to celebrate and count our blessings.
You must have already visited my Naad-e Ali page wherein you'll find more interesting material to help you in celebrating this auspicious day with your families and friends and offer thanks to Allah in unison for Allah's Grace upon us.
Born inside the Holy Kaaba in Mecca on Friday the 13th Rajab, 30 Amulfeel, (year of the Elephant) 11th October 599 A.D. His father was Hazrat Abu Talib, his mother was Bibi Fatima Binte Asad, his wife was Bibi Fatima Binte Muhammad and he was the father of Hazrat Hassan (AS), Imam Hussein (AS), Bibi Zaynab (AS) and Bibi Kulthum (AS).
The Last Will of Ali ibn Abi Talib (AS)
Imam Ali's (AS) last will to his sons Imam Hasan (AS)
and Imam Hussain (AS) after the attempt on his life by a
stab from Ibn Muljam:
My advice to you is to be conscious of Allah and steadfast in
your religion. Do not yearn for the world, and do not be seduced
by it. Do not resent anything you have missed in it. Proclaim the
truth; work for the next world. Oppose the oppressor and
support the oppressed.
I advise you, and all my children, my relatives, and whosoever
receives this message, to be conscious of Allah, to remove your
differences, and to strengthen your ties. I heard your grandfather,
peace be upon him, say: "Reconciliation of your differences is
more worthy than all prayers and all fasting."
Fear Allah in matters concerning orphans. Attend to their
nutrition and do not forget their interests in the middle of yours.
Fear Allah in your relations with your neighbors. Your Prophet
often recommended them to you, so much so that we thought he
would give them a share in inheritance.
Remain attached to the Quran. Nobody should surpass you in
being intent on it, or more sincere in implementing it.
Fear Allah in relation to your prayers. It is the pillar of your
religion.
Fear Allah in relation to His House; do not abandon it as long as
you live. It you should do that you would abandon your dignity.
Persist in jihad in the cause of Allah, with your money, your
souls, and your tongue.
Maintain communication and exchange of opinion among
yourselves. Beware of disunity and enmity. Do not desist from
promoting good deeds and cautioning against bad ones. Should
you do that,the worst among you would be your leaders, and
you will call upon Allah without response.
O Children of Abdul Muttaleb! Do not shed the blood of
Muslims under the banner: The Imam has been assassinated!
Only the assassin should be condemned to death.
If I die of this stab of his, kill him with one similar stroke. Do not
mutilate him! I have heard the Prophet, peace be upon him, say:
"Mutilate not even a rabid dog."

In the 40th year of Hijri, in the small hours of the morning of 19th
Ramadan, Imam Ali (AS) was struck with a poisoned sword by the
Kharijite Ibn Maljam while offering his prayers in the Masjid of Kufa.
He died on the 21st day of Ramadan 40 A.H. and buried in
Najaf-ul-Ashraf. He was born in the House of Allah, the Kaaba, and
martryed in the House of Allah, Masjid-e-Kufa. The Lion of Allah,
the most brave and gentle Muslim after the Prophet (PBUH&HF)
himself, began his glorious life with devotion to Allah and His
Messenger, and ended it in the service of Islam.
