Quick fact: The book attributed to Hazrat Ali (R.A) is Nehjul Balagha.

Explanation

Nehjul Balagha (meaning "Peak of Eloquence") is a famous collection of sermons, letters, and sayings attributed to Hazrat Ali (R.A), the fourth Caliph of Islam. It was compiled by Al-Sharif al-Radi in the 10th century CE. The book is highly regarded for its literary excellence and profound wisdom on theology, governance, and ethics.

Good to know

Nehjul Balagha is divided into three main sections: sermons (khutab), letters (rasail), and wise sayings (hikam). Hazrat Ali (R.A) was renowned for his eloquence and deep knowledge of the Quran and Islamic jurisprudence. The compilation by Sharif al-Radi took place approximately 300 years after Hazrat Ali's martyrdom, drawing from various oral and written sources that were in circulation.
