Al-Hakim (رحمه الله) reports on the authority of Ummul Mu'mineen Hadrat 'Aa'isha Siddeeqah bint as-Siddeeq (رضي الله عنهما), that Hadrat 'Ali (رضي الله عنه) was mentioned to her, and she said: "He is the best living authority on the Sunnah."

1) He was of the opinion that it is Sunnah for men to fold the hands below the navel in salaah. [Abu Dawood]

2) He was of the opinion that the Taraaweeh comprises of twenty Rakaahs. [Tirmidhi Vol.1 Pg.99, Bayhaqi Vol.2 Pg.495]

3) He issued the Fatwaa that the Eid and Jumu’ah salaahs cannot be performed in villages. [Musannaf of Abdur Razzaaq Vol.3 Pg.167, Ibn Abi Shayba Vol.1 Pg.439 – this narration is authentic].
