3. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla ibn Muhammad from al-Washsha’ from Ahmad ibn ‘Umar who has said the following. “I asked abu al-Hassan عليه السلام, ‘Why is he (Ali ibn abu Talib عليه السلام called Amir al-Mu’minin (commander of the faithful)?” He said, “Because he fed them knowledge. Have you not read in the Holy Quran, “We can buy more provisions with this for our family. .” (12:65)” In another hadith it is said, “Because Amir al-Mu’minin عليه السلام would feed them knowledge.”
