IMAM ALI'S LAST WILL TO HIS SONS I.HASSAN(A.S) AND IMAM HUSSAIN (A.S)

My advice to you is to be conscious of Allah and steadfast in your
religion. Do not yearn for the world, and do not be seduced by it. Do not
resent anything you have missed in it. Proclaim the truth; work for the
next world. Oppose the oppressor and support the oppressed.

I advise you, and all my children, my relatives, and whosoever receives
this message, to be conscious of Allah, to remove your differences, and to
strengthen your ties. I heard your grandfather, peace be upon him,
say: "Reconciliation of your differences is more worthy than all prayers
and all fasting."

Fear Allah in matters concerning orphans. Attend to their nutrition and do
not forget their interests in the middle of yours.

Fear Allah in your relations with your neighbors. Your Prophet often
recommended them to you, so much so that we thought he would give them a
share in inheritance.

Remain attached to the Quran. Nobody should surpass you in being intent on
it, or more sincere in implementing it.

Fear Allah in relation to your prayers. It is the pillar of your religion.

Fear Allah in relation to His House; do not abandon it as long as you
live. If you should do that you would abandon your dignity.

Persist in jihad in the cause of Allah, with your money, your souls, and
your tongue.

Maintain communication and exchange of opinion among yourselves. Beware of
disunity and enmity. Do not desist from promoting good deeds and
cautioning against bad ones. Should you do that, the worst among you would
be your leaders, and you will call upon Allah without response.

O Children of Abdul Muttalib! Do not shed the blood of Muslims under the
banner: The Imam has been assassinated! Only the assassin should be
condemned to death.

If I die of this stroke of his, kill him with one similar stroke. Do not
mutilate him! I have heard the Prophet, peace be upon him, say: "Mutilate
not even a rabid dog."

In the 40th year of Hijri, in the early hours of the morning of 19th
Ramadhan, Imam Ali (AS) was struck with a poisoned sword by the Kharijite
Ibn Muljim (may the curse of Allah be upon him) while leading prayers in
the Masjid of Kufa. He was martyred on the 21st day of Ramadhan 40 A.H.
and buried in Najaf-ul-Ashraf. He was born in the House of Allah, the
Ka'ba, and martyred in the House of Allah, Masjid-e-Kufa. The Lion of
Allah, the most brave and gentle Muslim after the Holy Prophet (pbuh&hf)
himself, began his glorious life with devotion to Allah and His Messenger,
and ended it in the service of Islam.

"And do not speak of those who are slain in the the Way of Allah as dead;
nay, they are alive, but you perceive not." Qur'an 2:154

If only we could abide by his will. the world would b full of peace :)
