Le Maître des Arabes: Le sens de la parole du Prophète, que les bénédictions d'Allah soient sur lui et sur sa Famille, à propos d'Ali ibn Abi Talib, que la paix soit sur lui.

2. We were told by Ahmad bin Muhammed bin al-Sinani, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Hamza bin Qasim al-Alawi al-Abbasi, that he said: We were told by Ja’far bin Muhammed bin Malik al-Fazari, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Hussain bin Zaid, the Oilman, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Sinan, that he said: We were told by Ziyad bin Mundhir, from Sa’eed bin Jubayr, from Aisha, that she said: The Messenger of Allah, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, said: Ali is the Master of the Arabs. So I said: O Allah’s Messenger, are you not the Master of the Arabs? He said: I am the Master of the sons of Adam, and Ali is the Master of the Arabs. I said: And what is a Master? He said: The one to whom obedience is made obligatory, like how obedience to me is made obligatory.

"Ali est le chef des Arabes." J'ai dit: "Ô Messager d'Allah, n'es-tu pas le chef des Arabes?" Il a dit: "Je suis le chef des enfants d'Adam et Ali est le chef des Arabes." J'ai dit: "Et qu'est-ce qu'un chef?" Il a dit: "Celui dont tu as l'obligation d'obéir comme tu as l'obligation d'obéir à moi."
