He claims Ali ibn Abu Talib A.S is Knowledge Ye ilm hi wahi kabhi ilham ho gaya Kaabe taka ate aate Ali naam ho gaya یہ علم ہی وہی کبھی الہام ہو گیا کعبے تک آتے آتے علی نام ہو گیا Knowledge and prophecies was none other But Ali himself who was born in holy Kaba His way of expressing the events of Karbala and portraying the characters is superb. He says Asghar hi shahar e ilm ki Pahchan ho gaya Ek nukta muskrat diya, Qur'an ho gaya اصغر ہی شہرے علم کی پہچان ہو گیا ایک نکتہ مسکرا دیا قران ہو گیا Asghar became the identification of the city of Knowledge Ali As a dot he smiled, and turned into a full Quran His Musaddas on Anaa Ego is a masterclass itself Khud hi me dooba hua ek viqaar ka lehja Ek Aitmaad ka, ek Aitbaar ka lehja Ek Iftekhar bharA ikhtiar ka lehja AnaA ka lehjaA hai ParwardiaAr ka lehja KahiN ye lafz na paiida fareb zaat kare Bashar anaA ko samajh le tab iski baat kare خود ہی مے ڈوبا ہوا ایک وقار کا لہجہ ایک اعتماد کا، ایک اعتبار کا لہجہ ایک افتخار بھرا اختیار کا لہجہ انا کا لہجہ ہے پروردگار کا لہجہ کہیں یہ لفظ نہ پیدا فریب ذات کرے بشر انا کو سمجھ تب اسکی بات کرے
