1717 - خَيرُ النّاسِ أُسرَةً
1717. THE BEST FAMILY AMONG ALL PEOPLE
6039.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : اُسرَتُهُ خَيرُ اُسرَةٍ ، وشَجَرَتُهُ خَيرُ شَجَرَةٍ ، أغصانُها مُعتَدِلَةٌ ، وثِمارُها مُتَهَدِّلَةٌ ، مَولِدُهُ بمَكّةَ ، وهِجرَتُهُ بطَيبَةَ، عَلا بِها ذِكرُهُ ، وامتَدَّ مِنها صَوتُهُ .1
6039.Imam Ali (AS) said, 'His family is the best family and his tree is the best tree. Its branches are moderate and its fruits hang down. His birth was in Makkah and his migration was to Tayba [Madina]. In it his remembrance was elevated and from it his voice spread.' 2
6040.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : أشهَدُ أنّ محمّداً عَبدُهُ ورَسولُهُ ، وسَيّدُ عِبادِهِ ، كُلَّما نَسَخَ اللَّهُ الخَلقَ فِرقَتينِ جَعَلَهُ في خَيرِهِما .3
6040.Imam Ali (AS) said, 'I testify that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, and the chief of His creation; whenever Allah divided the line of descent, He put him in the better one.' 4
