1.Why was ʿAlī chosen to sleep in the Prophet’s bed on the night of Hijrah?
alah (RA) was born into Quraysh nobility and was one of the earliest converts through Abū
Bakr’s invitation.
alah later became involved in political disputes and was killed in 656 CE during the Battle of
the Camel. Despite controversy, he is remembered for his courage and loyalty in defending the
Prophet ﷺ.
At the Battle of Uḥud, when many companions fled, alah shielded the Prophet ﷺ with his
own body, suffering more than seventy wounds. The Prophet ﷺ said: “Whoever wishes to see a
martyr walking on the earth, let him look at Ṭalḥah.” (Musnad Aḥmad). He was among those
who pledged allegiance under the tree at Ḥudaybiyyah, about whom Allah revealed: “Indeed Allah
was pleased with the believers when they pledged allegiance to you under the tree.” (48:18).
He endured persecution for Islam but remained loyal. He migrated to Madinah with the Prophet
.ﷺ
