Aaron had a great position before Moses and thus Imam 'Ali's (a) position and rightfulness for caliphate after the Prophet (s) can be understood. Based on the story of Aaron and Moses in the [[Qur'an]], Aaron was Moses' deputy in his mission, thus 'Ali (a) was also the Prophet's (s) deputy in his leadership and guardianship, except in his role as a [[prophet]]. Aaron was the second man after Moses among [[Bani Israel]], thus 'Ali (a) was the same in the Prophet's (s) ummah. Aaron was Moses' brother, and 'Ali (a) was also noted as the Prophet's (s) brother based on the frequently narrated [[Hadith of Mu'akhat]] which has been mentioned in both [[Shi'a]] and [[Sunni]] references. Aaron was the best of Moses' people before God, as 'Ali (a) was during the time of the Prophet.

Aaron was Moses' exclusive deputy in his absence, and the Prophet gave that right to 'Ali (a), as documented in the narration where the Prophet's (s) said, "It would not be appropriate that I go to the [[Battle of Tabuk]], except you would be my vicegerent here". Aaron was the most knowledgeable person among the people of Moses and so was 'Ali (a) as stressed by the Prophet (s). Obeying Aaron was incumbent upon both [[Joshua b. Nun]] (Moses' deputy) and his people. Obeying 'Ali (a) was also a necessity, even with the assumption of the deputyship of [[Abu Bakr]], [['Umar b. Khattab|'Umar]], [['Uthman b. Affan|'Uthman]] or anyone else.
Aaron was Moses' universal agent in his absence, and the Prophet gave that very right to 'Ali (a), as documented in the narration where the Prophet (s) said, "It would not be appropriate that I go to the [[Battle of Tabuk]], except you would be my vicegerent here". Aaron was the most knowledgeable person among the people of Moses and so was 'Ali (a) as stressed by the Prophet (s). Obeying Aaron was incumbent upon both [[Joshua b.

Affan|'Uthman]] or anyone else.


Aaron was the most beloved person before God and Moses, so was 'Ali (a). God supported Moses by his brother Aaron and did the same about the Prophet (s) by 'Ali (a). Aaron was infallible regarding any error or ignorance, and so was 'Ali (a).
