Amir b Sad bin Abi Waqqas reported on the authority of his father that Allahs Messenger ﷺ addressing Ali said: You are in the same position with relation to me as Aaron- (Harun) was in relation to Moses (علیہ السلام) but with (this explicit difference) that there is no prophet after me. Sad said: I had an earnest desire to hear it directly from Sad, so I met him and narrated to him what (his son) Amir had narrated to me, whereupon he said: Yes, I did hear it. I said: Did you hear it yourself? Thereupon he placed his fingers upon his ears and said: Yes, and if not, let both my ears become deaf.
