Hadith 35
۞
31-35 According to the same documentation, God’s Prophet (S) said, “O Ali! I asked my Lord for five things regarding you. He granted them to me. The first thing was that when the Earth is rent asunder I shall be the first one to be resurrected and push the dirt off from my face and you will be with me. This was accepted. The second thing I asked my Lord for was that when I am taken to the Scale for my deeds to be reckoned, you will be with me. This was accepted. The third thing that I asked my Lord for was that you be the one carrying my flag called “Leva Allah Akbar” on which it is written, “The prosperous ones are those who attain Paradise!” This was accepted. The fourth thing that I asked was that you be the one at my Pool to serve water to my nation. This was accepted. And the fifth thing that I asked my Lord for was that you be the one leading my nation to Paradise. This was also accepted. Therefore, I praise God for what He granted me.”

قالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُعَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ: يا عَلِيُّ إِنّي سَأَلْتُ رَبِّي فِيكَ خَمْسَ خِصالٍ فَأَعطانِي؛ أَمَّا أَوَّلُها فَسَأَلْتُ رَبِّي أَن أَكُونَ أَوَّلَ مَن تَنشَقُّ عَنْهُ الأَرْضُ وَأنفَضُ التّرابَ عَنْ رَأْسِي وَأَنْتَ مَعِي، فَأَعطانِي؛ وَأَمَّا الثَّانِيَةُ فَسَأَلْتُ رَبِّي أَن يَقِفَني عِنْدَ كَفَّةِ الميزانِ وَأَنْتَ مَعِي، فَأَعطانِي، وَأَمَّا الثالِثَةُ فَسَأَلْتُ رَبِّي أَن تَكُونَ حامِلَ لِوائي وَهُوَلِواءُ اللَّهِ الأَكبَرُ مَكْتُوبٌ عَلَيهِ (المُفلِحونَ هُمُ الفائِزُونَ بِالْجَنَّةِ)، فَأَعطانِي؛ وَأَمَّا الرَّابِعَةُ فَسَأَلْتُ رَبِّي أَن تَسقِيَ اُمَّتِي مِن حَوضي بِيَدِكَ، فَأَعطانِي، وَأَمَّا الخامِسَةُ فَسَأَلْتُ رَبِّي أَن يَجعَلَكَ قائِدَ اُمَّتِي إِلَى الجَنَّةِ، فَأَعطانِي؛ فَالحَمدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذي مَنَّ عَلَيَّ بِذلِكَ.
