Imam Ali's foreknowledge and knowledge in Nahj al-balagha

Imam’s foreknowledge and knowledge is important and sensitive issues of religious faith and knowledge. Hazrat Ali (AS), according to the Quran, introduces and explains God’s foreknowledge in Nahj al-balagha. He also introduces and explains his knowledge that includes widespread sciences except foreknowledge, dedicated only to God. According to the words of the Imam, the source of his vast knowledge is the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), who received those Sciences through divine revelation and transferred them to Imam Ali (AS) through education (teaching) and inspiration. Imam’s knowledge of the upcoming events and inkling to some of them are included among them. Contemporary audiences of Hazrat Ali (AS) are usual heirs of Imam’s knowledge and next Imams are certain heirs of his knowledge.
