Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
Ya Ali Madad. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (s.a.s.) was a natiq (proclaimer) and Hazrat Murtaza Ali (a.s.) was an asas (foundation) for the Holy Prophet according to the Shia Muslim understanding of Nubuwa and Imama. The Holy Prophet (s.a.s.) delivered the external message of Allah through the revelation of the Holy Qur'an while Hazrat Ali (a.s.) explained the inner meaning of the Holy Qur'an. The inspiration for this project was to link the written form of the Holy Qur'an with the speaking Qur'an by searching for Qur'anic resources which were related to the Sayings of Hazrat Mowlana Murtaza Ali (a.s.). This approach is justified by the following ta'wil:
Ta'wil of word 'Ma'a'l-Qur'ân' (With the Qur'ân):
"Externally Ali (Imam of the time) is a pure personality and internally a light. Externally, the Qur'ân is a glorious heavenly Book and internally (in the Prophet and the Imam) it is light. This shows that externally Ali and Qur'ân are separate from each other, but internally they are not only together, they are one light."
