According to Fiqh E Jaferia….. The life of' Hazrat Ali stands out as a beacon, radiating its light into the darkness of this world. A world tom asunder by strife, struggle and wars, a world in which the value of human life is regarded as next to nothing. It must be borne in mind that it was Imam Ali who gave a distinctive outlook to the intellectual, social, cultural and political concepts of his times. He was the Warrior-Saint of Islam, who spent his entire life fighting the holy wars and who in spite of his multifarious activities lit the torch of knowledge which gave unprecedented impetus to learn- ing-a marvel of the times in which he lived. (The wonder- ful personality he possessed has made him the greatest hero of all times.) In the world of today, his many-sided spiritual precepts might help to solve some of the problems with which the world is faced today. His ideas were conciliatory and his message was always one of peace. He Jived for justice and was very firm in his belief that every one should have a right to Jive in security, that there should be food, shelter and clothing for all. Humanity he considered as one family where there should be to tolerance for all-irrespective of race, creed and color and irrespective of wealth or adversity. Nowhere was his humane attitude more apparent than when he was dispensing justice. He had the strictest ideas of duty and responsibility and even the poorest and most insignificant of suitors always found him ready to gi'e his case a fair and prompt hearing. He was quick to forgive an offender as he was slow to resent an injury, a humane attitude which too many of his contemporaries were prone to interpret wrongly as a weakness; it was this humane attitude which above all stamped Ali as the ideal man.
