'''ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib''' (Arabic: {{iarabic|علي بن أبي طالب}}) known as '''Imam ʿAlī (a)''' (b. [[23 BH]]/[[600 CE|600]] - d. [[40]]/[[661 CE|661]]) is the first [[Imam]] of all the branches of the [[Shi'a]], a [[companions|companion]], a narrator, and a [[scribes of the Qur'an|scribe of the Qur'an]]. He is the fourth [[caliph]] of the [[Khulafa' al-Rashidun|Rightly Guided Caliphs]] in [[Sunni]] Islam. Ali (a) is the cousin, and son-in-law of the [[Prophet (s)]], the husband of [[Lady Fatima (a)]], the father of [[Imam al-Hasan (a)]] and [[Imam al-Husayn (a)]].

Based on evidence from the Qur'an, hadith, and history, the Shi'a believe that 'Ali (a) was the direct designated [[successor]] of the Prophet (s). Some verses of the Qur'an point to his [[infallibility]]. According to Shiite and some Sunni sources, roughly three-hundred verses of the Qur'an were revealed with regards to his virtues. When the [[Quraysh]] plotted to assassinate the Prophet (s), it was 'Ali (a) who slept where the Prophet (s) used to sleep, and thus helped the Prophet (s) to secretly leave for [[Medina]]. In the [[pact of brotherhood]] in Medina, the Prophet (s) chose 'Ali (a) as his brother. Except for the [[Battle of Tabuk]] when he stayed in Medina as the deputy of the Prophet (s), 'Ali (a) was with the Prophet (s) in all the battles. He was the most proud commander of Islam. | Based on evidence from the Qur'an, hadith, and history, the Shi'a believe that 'Ali (a) was the direct designated [[successor]] of the Prophet (s).
