سيرة علي بن أبي طالب — الجزء 42
'Ali (may Allah be pleased with them), the way to prove that their caliphates were valid, and that they met the conditions of being qualified for this post, is the same as that of proving the validity of the caliphate of Abu Bakr (&). The evidence of anyone who discusses the position of leadership is to be based on mutawitir reports and consensus. No attention should be paid to the one who says that there was no consensus on the caliphate of 'Ali (&), because his caliphate was not denied; rather there was division and turmoil because of other issues."47
