where it is mentioned that it was for hazrat ali…
let suppose if i say hazrat abu bakar or hazrat saad bin ibi waqas is being referred here. how can u refute me… i think u have listened this interpretation in some majlis … but use bit of common sense as well.
i cant comment on the shan e nazool as i dont exactly about the shan e nazool of this ayat… but it apparent that the shariat and paigham e hidayat is being discussed rather than the khilafat.
the last word is “kafrin” . kafir are least bothered whether prophet makes hazrat abu bakar or hazrat ali his succesor.
