Ali ibn abi Talib Zitate

Abū l-Hasan ʿAlī ibn Abī Tālib , häufig kurz Ali genannt, war der Vetter und Schwiegersohn des als Prophet und Gottesgesandter geltenden Mohammed und ist eine zentrale Figur des Islam. Er war der erste männliche Anhänger Mohammeds und heiratete dessen Tochter Fatima. Nach dem Tode des Propheten im Jahre 632 war er von 656 bis 661 Kalif. Über die Frage, ob er berechtigt gewesen wäre, unmittelbar nach dem Tode Mohammeds dessen Nachfolge anzutreten, entzweiten sich die Muslime: Für die Schiiten, deren Name sich von schīʿat ʿAlī ableitet, war ʿAlī der rechtmäßige Nachfolger Mohammeds, die Sunniten dagegen meinen, dass Mohammeds Schwiegervater Abū Bakr, der auch tatsächlich die Nachfolge antrat, größeren Anspruch darauf hatte. Den Sunniten gilt ʿAlī als vierter und letzter Rechtgeleiteter Kalif, den Schiiten und den Aleviten, deren Name sich ebenfalls von ʿAlī ableitet, als erster der Zwölf Imame. Auch ʿAlīs Söhne Hasan und Husain sind zentrale Personen im schiitischen und alevitischen Islam. Bis heute genießen die Aliden hohes Ansehen in den muslimischen Gesellschaften. Wikipedia

Nahj al-Balagha

“Remember that this world which you covet so ardently and attempt to acquire so earnestly, and which sometimes annoys you and sometimes pleases you so much, is neither your home nor a permanent destination. You have not been created for it, nor invited to it as your resting-place. It shall neither remain with you for ever, nor will you remain in it eternally. If it has enticed you away with its charrns, it has also warned and cautioned you of real dangers lurking in its folds. Take account of the warnings it has given you and do not be seduced or deceived by its allurements. Let these warnings frighten you from being too greedy to possess it. Try to advance towards the place where you are invited for eternal bliss and turn your face away from the vicious world.”
