خلاصة:
A leader who draws people nearer to righteousness
is a grace of God. Imamate in Shi’i Islam considers it necessary to
have a guide who will lead the Muslim society after the Prophet’s
death to present true Islam. This guide is appointed by God; he
possesses qualities of piety, knowledge, wisdom, and infallibility.
While Part IV of this series verified that the Shi‘a understanding of
Imamate is compatible with the Qur’an, Part V studied the group of
verses that refer to the profound concept of witness, including his
roles and merits, and that it is none other than Imam Ali who
possessed those qualities. This part offers the authentic hadiths that
refer to the legitimacy of Imam Ali’s leadership, namely the Hadith
of Manzilah, Hadith of Dr, Hadith of Tayr, Hadith of Wilya,
Hadith of Ghadir, Hadith of Safinah, and the Hadith of the Stars.

"3; Sahih Muslim; also mentioned in Dua al-Nudbah And make him share my task (20:32) Thus, Imam Ali also holds the positions of being a vicegerent, minister, assistant, and partner to Prophet Muhammad with the exclusion of being a prophet.
To reiterate, when Prophet Muhammad sent for Imam Ali to convey the chapter The Immunity to the polytheists and unbelievers, he said, "I was asked by Allah that someone from myself must declare this.
The Tradition of the Roasted Bird (Hadith al-Tayr) This hadith is about the Prophet and his prayer to Allah to share his ready-to-eat meal - gifted by an Ansari woman - with most beloved person to Him. Different versions of this hadith, with a similar theme yet different phrasings, have been combined for an accurate understanding to draw a conclusion regarding the event.
When Imam Ali came once more, this time knocking harder, the Prophet heard it, and asked Anas as 5 Musnad of Imam ibn Hanbal to who it was.
The Tradition of Safinah In a well-known hadith narrated by both Shi‘a and Sunni Muslims, the Prophet Muhammad has likened his household to the ship or ark (safinah) of Prophet Noah: Surely the likeness of my Ahl al-Bayt is similar to Noah's Ark; whoever boards it will attain salvation and whoever remains behind is drowned.
The actual person among the Ahlul Bayt prepared to act as a leader was Ali. Additionally, during that time Lady Fatima asked people to follow him to achieve guidance and salvation."
