== The Indication of The Hadith as to Imam Ali's Virtues and His Succession to the Prophet ==
In addition to proving a great merit for [[Imam 'Ali (a)]], this hadith also proves his right for [[caliphate]] and infallibility, since the [[Prophet (s)]] has elevated Imam 'Ali (a) to [[Aaron]] and all of his virtues, except for being a prophet. According to Quranic verses, prophet [[Moses]] asked God to choose Aaron as his deputy, and prophet Musa helps him in his mission<ref>Sura Taha (20:29-32)</ref>. God accepted Moses' request<ref>Sura Taha (20:36)</ref> and Aaron became Moses' vicegerent in his absence<ref>Sura A'raf (7:142)</ref>. Therefore, Aaron had all the positions of Moses as well, and if Aaron remained alive after Moses, he would have served as his successor (according to Jews, Aaron passed away forty years before Moses.)
