I have heard this guy, Allama Ghazanfar Abbas of merits of Ali ra. I’ll tell u some of the things he said, aap bhi suye aur ser dhunye
When Rasoolullah saw went on Me’raaj and reached Arsh, Rasool saw thought that when Musa as was asked to remove his shoes on Koh-e-toor before speaking to Allah, i shud also remove my shoes, but Allah asked Rasool saw not to remove the shoes and enter the Arsh with shoes. But when Rasoolullaah saw was to enter Ka’abaah he used to remove his shoes ad this was because Ali ra body had touched the inside of Ka’baah on his birth inside Ka’abaah.
So imagine, this guy is saying that because Ali ra body touched the inside of Ka’baah eve Rasoolullaah saw has to remove his shoes before entering it.
When Jibrael as came to take Rasoolullaah saw for Miraaj, Rasoolullaah saw asked Ali ra to sleep on his bed and said, we will meet tomorrow. Ali ra smiled and went to bed. As Rasoolullaah saw rode the Burraaq and wet to first sky he heard the angels saying that Ali ra just passed from here and same thing happened at each sky and when Jibrael left Rassolullaah saw that i cannot go beyond this point after sometime Rasoolullaah heard a voice tellig him to stop ad Rasoolullaah saw recognized that this was the voice of Ali ra.
