It is narrated from Abdullah bin Raqeem Kanani, he says: During the days of the Battle of Jamal, we set out towards Madinah Munawwarah and met Sayyiduna Sa’d bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him). He said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had ordered that all the doors opening towards the mosque should be closed, except for the door of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), which was allowed to remain open.
