His covenant with non-muslims found in Cairo Jenizah https://www.jstor.org/stable/1450432?seq=3 -
When you say Musa is 'Greater than' Khidr, greater in what aspect ? You use the term 'greater than' as if we are talking about a mathematical equation. 5 > 4. Yes, this is true because numbers have only one aspect, i.e. their numeric value. That's all. Simple. People are not like that and Prophets, Imam, Awliya Allah, Mumineen, Muminaat are not like that. They have many aspects and many dimensions. People exist on many levels simultaneously. We have the different Nafs (Nafs Al Ammara, Nafs Al Muma'ina, etc), we have the Ruh, the Aql, etc. You forgot the verse in the Holy Quran regarding the Ruh (The spirit) 'We have given you knowledge of it, but only a very little'. In other words, the most important aspect of us, the eternal aspect, i.e. the Ruh we basically don't know anything about. So reducing this to a mathematical equation, IMHO is silly and non productive. If Nabi Musa((عليه السلام)) was greater than Khidr in EVERY ASPECT, then why did Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى) make Prophet Musa((عليه السلام)) as a student of Prophet Khidr ? Why did Khidr have knowledge given to him by Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى) that Musa didn't know and didn't even have the ability to understand at the time('...you cannot bear this with patience...') ? You're hadith from Bukhari didn't even answer either of these questions. If you attempt to answer these questions you will then have some knowledge which you didn't have before. -
Salam 1) Sorry I don't understand this point. I do not disagree that the Prophet is the best of creation. I am talking about the Shia claim the twelve Imams are better than the Prophets. 2) I do not know what verse you are pointing to at first but that is possible linguistically. However, it would require clear evidence. 3) The verse is saying the same people have been given these things together. As for inheritors of the knowledge the Quran talks about this in a different light. Surah Fatir verse 32 ثُمَّ أَوْرَثْنَا ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱصْطَفَيْنَا مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ۖ فَمِنْهُمْ ظَالِمٌۭ لِّنَفْسِهِۦ وَمِنْهُم مُّقْتَصِدٌۭ وَمِنْهُمْ سَابِقٌۢ بِٱلْخَيْرَٰتِ بِإِذْنِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْفَضْلُ ٱلْكَبِيرُ ٣٢ Then We caused to inherit the Book those We have chosen of Our servants; and among them is he who wrongs himself [i.e., sins], and among them is he who is moderate, and among them is he who is foremost in good deeds by permission of Allāh. That [inheritance] is what is the great bounty. 4) Again not taking the apparent meaning with no evidence. That is not allowed. The verse itself doesn't make any exceptions of "people chosen" or "people not chosen" hence why that argument can be made. -
Salam. What most people don't realize and what I've realized is that happiness comes from relationships not things. If you have a good relationship with Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى), with your spouse, family then it doesn't matter what else happens you will be happy. You may not be happy in every moment, because it doesn't work like that. Challenges and bad things happen and then you are down emotionally for a few hours, days, etc, but you will come back up to the baseline level of happiness naturally. It's like a balloon if you put it in a swimming pool. If you put it at the bottom of the pool it will float up naturally without you having to do anything. The focus should be building a good relationship with Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى),family, and neighbors (if possible), and community (if possible). Happiness is the natural product of that.

I have already stated the Shia evidence is weak and explained how. It isn't allowed to not take the apparent meaning with no evidence, let alone the clear cut meaning. I have already explained and quoted the part of the Hadith. "Al-Khadir replied, "Verily! You will not be able to remain patient with me, O Moses! I have some of the knowledge of Allah which He has taught me and which you do not know, while you have some knowledge which Allah has taught you which I do not know."" This actually goes back to another Problem shias have. They can't seem to differentiate between being better in a specific way and being better overall. No contradiction between being introduced as an Abd and being a Prophet. Our Prophet was introduced as an Abd in the first verse of Surah Al-Isra. ????????? Severe confusion in a majority of your posts. Study mantiq maybe? I don't know what to say to such a comment. Source of it being different: Your imagination? Fabricated Hadith that invalidates your point lol. Clearly shows that "min" doesn't have anything to do with being better than the Prophets. Quoting Nahj Al-Balagah and other Shia books? I am Sunni fi you forgot. Not a reliable source. "Imam Ali was forced by his soldiers" like seriously? Makes no sense at all. Is this the same way that Al-Hassan was "forced" to pledge allegiance to Muawiyah only for his soldiers to insult him for doing so? History never adds up for Shias. The Khawarij of Nahrawan literally fought Ali because he approved the hakamayn. You can try your best to reinterpret Quran and Sunnah but sometimes history exposes you. I wasn't really quoting Dhahabi I was quoting Al-'Amash. The narrator of the story literally saying "We narrated to them the anger of the Companions and they made it (insulting the Companions) religion" You will find many examples of this. For example, Al-Abbas insulting his nephew Ali! Even in Shia books Aqeel goes against Ali and sides with Muawiyah. May Allah be pleased with all the Companions. The first narration point to the person being someone apart from Abu-Musa Al-Ashari. Hence why he wasn't named while Abu Musa was. The part of the report: وإن كنت فيهم فقد كانوا خمسة عشر Was to the initial person asking not Abu Musa.
