It is narrated by Haskani in his work ‘Thawahidut Tanzeel’—from Yazeed ibne Sharaheel-e-Ansari—Ali Askarani—from Ali—that the Holy Prophet told him at the time of his departure when, his head was lying on my breast quoting this verse and said: “’Khairul-Bariyya’ are thy Shias (followers) and the place for me to meet them is the ‘Houz’ the Cistern (of Kauthar) when the people will be gathered for accounting—and thy followers will be called ‘Ghorral-Mohajjaleen’”—and Haskani narrates from ‘Maqatil-ibne Suleman’, one of the well-known earliest commentators on Qur’an from ibne Abbas that ‘Khairal-Bariyya’ was revealed for Ali and those of his family.
