‘Ali is my brother in the world and the Hereafter

علي أخي في الدنيا و الآخرة

‘Ali is my brother in the world and the Hereafter.

The hadith is da’if.^[1]

Hafiz al ‘Iraqi announces, “Everything reported regarding ‘Ali’s brotherhood is da’if.”^[2]

Jami’ ibn ‘Umair ibn ‘Affaq al Taymi Abu al Aswad al Kufi

Ibn Numair says, “He was one of the worst liars. He would say that the crane lays eggs in the sky and her young ones do not fall.”
Ibn Hibban narrated it in Kitab al Du’afa’ with his isnad and commented, “He was a Rafidi who concocted ahadi”
Al Saji says, “He has munkar narrations. There is scepticism about him. He is truthful.”
Al ‘Ijli comments, “A Tabi’i. Reliable.”
Abu al ‘Arab al Saqli states, “Abu al Hassan is not corroborated in this.”^[3]

Hafiz’s verdict remains intact, “He was truthful but blundered and had shia ideologies.”[4]

Hakim ibn Hubayr

Al Daraqutni comments, “Hakim ibn Hubayr is the only transmitter from al Nakha’i.”
Ahmed ibn Hambal remarks, “Hakim is da’i”
Al Sa’di labelled him a kadha[5]
Ahmed also said, “Da’i Munkar al Hadith.”
Al Bukhari said, “Shu’bah would criticise him.”[6]
Al Haythami graded him da’i[7]
Ya’qub ibn Sufyan commented, “He was extreme in tashayyu’.”
He further states, “It is said about him that he was despised, and among the fanatical Rawafid.”[8]
