Ask Me Before You Lose Me
BEST FRIEND IMAM 'ALI A.S.

O conflicting souls, divorced hearts, and people whose bodies are present but whose minds are absent, I have persuaded you to the truth, but you turn away from it.

3. O people whose bodies are present, but whose minds are absent and whose desires vary. Their leaders are being tested with their (disobedience). Surely your leader (i.e., the priest 'Ali a.s.) obeys God, while you defy him. On the contrary, the leaders of the people of Sham (i.e., Mu'awiya) disobeyed Allah, while they obeyed him.

I invite you to fight (against your enemy's enemy), but you do not fulfill my invitation. I listened to you guys still don't want to hear. I call upon you in secret and light, but you do not welcome my cry. And I have given you counsel, but you will not listen to me. So, are slaves the same as masters ?

What harm did our brother who shed his blood on the shiffin for not living now ? Only that they no longer suffer from gulping when swallowing and do not drink murky water. By Allah, they will surely meet Allah and he will bestow upon them their reward

He has put them in a safe land (heaven) after they were previously covered in fear. Where is my brother who has taken the right path and stepped in the truth ? Where is Ammar?  Where is ibn at taihan ? In what is dzusy shahadatain (khuzaimah ibn tsabit al anshari)? And where are others, such as those among their brethren, who have made a covenant (bayat) to (jihad until) meet death and whose heads (the severed) are brought to the enemy of the wicked enemy. Then the faith of ali a.s wept as he continued his sermon: duhai brother who read al qu'ran and confirmed it; contemplated their kejiban and fulfilled it; and revived the sunnah and killed the heresy. They were called to jihad, so they immediately welcomed him and believed their leader, and they followed him.

6.About the Imam's speech 'Ali a.s. when listening to the words of the khawarij," La hukma illa lillah (there is no law except for god)."

really, it is a word of right, but it is meant for an invalid thing. It is true that "there is no law except for Allah. "but, they mean to say, "there is no authority except for Allah. " A man must have a leader, whether he be a good man or an ungodly man. Under his rule, a believer carries out his duty, while the infidel enjoys it.

7. O a man who resembles a man, but is not a man. Your mind is the mind of the child and your mind is the mind of the pingitan girl. I wish I had never seen you and never knew you. By Allah, this introduction has caused regret and caused sorrow. May God fight you. You are right to fill my heart with pus and fill my chest with wrath.

So, if I order you to fight them in the summer, you say, "the weather is very hot, put it on us (the war) until the heat subsides from us." then if I command you to fight them in the winter, you say, "the weather is very cold, put it on us (the war) until the cold leaves us. "" but, all of this is just an excuse to run away from the cold. For if you flee from the heat and the cold, you, by Allah, will flee more than the sword.

The words of Imam Ali when it came to him the news of the killing of muhammad bin abi bakar:

Indeed, our sorrow for him (muhammad ibn abi bakr) is about the size of their joy (for having killed him). Know that it is reduced for them (with the killing of muhammad ibn abi bakr) a man who hates very much, while less for us a man whom we love very much.

Letter of imam ali a.s to the Egyptian people when he appointed malik al-ashtar as their governor,"..... Amma ba du, I have sent to you a servant of Allah......"

12 You are defenders of truth and brothers in religion. You are a shield on the day of my vengeance and my cultivation among others.

ILMU IMAM

So ask me before you lose me. By the substance of which my soul is in his hands, whatever you ask me ask me about what is before you and the day of the Resurrection, as for the one who guides the hundred and leads the other one astray, I will certainly inform the kaliant of his mount, his rider, his herder, his rider's residence, and his stopping place. I will also tell you who of those who died and who died. If you had lost me and had befallen you, for what is not welcome, calamity and distress, most people would have kept silent and lost their spirits, most of the people asked. All of this happens when your war is already exciting and the world becomes narrow for you. Your days are filled with disasters for so long that God conquers this earth for his chosen and devoted servant among you.

O people, ask me before you lose me. Verily I know the way of the heavens more than the way of the earth. Even I knew before the disaster that the ithu jumped on his feet that would tread the nostrils and eliminate the human mind.

Where are those who claim that they are people who are deep in knowledge, not us? Truly, this is a lie and a deceit against us. For Allah has blessed us in position and humbled them, bestowing us with knowledge and not giving it to them. Enter us and bring them out. It is on us that the guidance must be sought and blindness (due to misdeeds) eliminated.

Had it been revealed to me a barrier (misternity), it would not have added to my faith (my faith),

If I speak, they say, "He is very ambitious to get the kingdom. "on the contrary, if I keep quiet, they say," He ('Ali a.s) is afraid of death." Really, far away. Semi Allah, this son of abu thalib preferred death to a baby's fondness for his mother's breast. In fact, I have entered into a hidden science, which if I reveal its secrets, you will surely be thrown into great shock in a long famine.

The priest 'Ali a.s once asked about the distance between east and west, so he replied, "it is a day trip for the sun."
