Miracle 77: Imam Ali (a.s.), Knower of What Is in the Hearts

And a man came to him (a.s.) and said, ‘I love you’. Ameerul Momineen (a.s.) said: ‘You are lying!’ The man said, ‘Glory be to Allah, the Almighty! It is as if you know what is in my heart’.

And another one came and said, ‘I love you all, people of the household’. And there was softness in him and he praised the Ahlul Bait (a.s.).

Ameerul Momineen (a.s.) said: ‘You are lying! He will not love us, neither an effeminate, nor a cuckold, nor a child of adultery, nor one whose mother conceived him during her menstruation’.

The man went away. During the battle of Siffeen, he fought against Imam Ali (a.s.) from the camp of Muawiya’’.¹
