‘Ali Bin Abi Talib – The Golden series of the Prophet’s Companions

This small book tells the life of ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib, one of the Companions of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. He was one of the first to accept Islaam, still a boy at the time. He lived in the house of the Prophet ﷺ, followed his example in everything and stayed humble all his life. The Prophet ﷺ was very fond of him, took him as a brother in Islaam and more than once called him the ‘Lion of Allaah’. No Companion was braver in the struggle for Islaam. The book is by Abdul Basit Ahmed and belongs to the series The Golden Series of the Prophet’s Companions. A good choice if you want an accessible introduction to his life.
