(مَحَبَّةُ حَضْرَةِ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَلَامَةُ الإِيمَانِ)
(Love for Hazrat Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, is a sign of faith)
Hadith 6100
عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا يُحِبُّ عَلِيًّا مُنَافِقٌ وَلَا يُبْغِضُهُ مُؤْمِنٌ» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالتِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيب إِسْنَادًا
Umm Salama reported God's messenger as saying, "A hypocrite does not love `Ali and a believer does not hate him." Ahmad and Tirmidhi transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a hasan tradition whose isnad is gharib.
