The meaning of word Welayat, Wali, Mawla,...
لبیک یا علی!
#Ali
He claimed that welayat doesn't mean political leader. See how their sources refute his claim.👇👇👇

It's fixed that Umar ibn Khattab after death of Abubakr said:
"I'm the Wali (from the root of Welayat) of the Wali of the Prophet and Abubakr."
انا ولی ولی رسول الله
I have a question: Wali here means political leader but doesn't mean political leader about Ali ibn Abi Talib?!

◇Other evidences that shows 'Wali' means Caliph and political leader:

1."Umar said: If Salim was servant of Hozaifa, I would appoint him as your Wali."
لو کان سالم مولی حذیفه حیّا لَوَلَّیتُهُ..
_Umar used the word 'Wali' for who can be appointed._
Ibn Kheldon/ v.1 / pg. 243

2."Abubakr appointed Umar as his Caliph and said: 'Umar is your Wali.'"
ولّیتُ علیکم عُمَر
_Umar was caliph of Abubakr and Abubakr used the word 'Wali' for him._
Ibn Athir al-Jazari/Jame ol Osol/ v.4 / pg.108

3."When Abd al-Mulk Marwan addresses the people, he says:

ولیُّکم عمر خطاب فکان فظا غلیظا

'But your Wali, Umar ibn al-Khattab, was immoral.'"
_Here Wali absolutely means political leader._
Lean ol Arab/ v.8 / pg.166

◇Now, see how the Holy Prophet used the word 'Wali' about Imam Ali:
1....The Prophet answered:"What do you want from Ali? What do you want from Ali? Ali is from me and I'm from Ali. Ali is Wali of all believers after me."
Kufi/Al-kitab ol Mosanaf Ahadith va Athar/v.6/pg.373

2. "The Prophet said: What's their problem with Ali? Ali is absolutely from me and I'm from Ali. And he is Wali of all believers after me."
Mosnad Abi Dawood/ v.2 / pg.168

3."The Prophet told Ali:" You are my Wali in Donya(in this World) and Akhira(that world)."
Mosnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal/v.5/pg.178

4."The Prophet said to Ali:" You are Wali of all believers after me."
Fazael Al-Sahaba/v.2/pg.851

5."... The Prophet said:" Don't say that. He is Wali/Owla(more Wali) of the people after me. "
Tabarani/ Al-Mo'jam Al-Kabir/v.22/pg.135

6. "The Prophet said to Ali:" You are Wali of all the believers after me."
Al-Bidaya va al-Nahaya/v.11/pg.62

7. "Ali is from me and I'm from Ali... You are Wali of all the believers after me."
Albani said in his book that this hadithes are authentic.
Selsela al-Ahadith al-Sahiha/pg.263

Then, answer us. The word 'Wali' means political leader when Abubakr, Umar and Marwan use that. But it means friend when the Prophet uses that?!!!?!

◇Now see that Sunni scholars admit our claim and denies what Umar did!
Imam Qazali/Serrol Alamin/pg. 23
'On Ghadir Umar said to Ali:"Bakhen, Bakhen (Congratulation). You became all the believers' Mawla." It shows submission and satisfaction. But then Umar's desire to...

But then Umar's desire to principalship overcame and then carried the backbone of caliphate and oppose the order of the Holy Prophet (pbuh). He cast it behind his back and sold it for a paltry gain. How evil is what they buy!"
Imam Qazali said this and adds:

'In the last moments of the life of the Prophet, he asked for a paper and a pen. But Umar said:" This bugger is hallucinating!"
These events are narrated from another sources too.
Seyar ol A'alam admitted this and said that is authentic.
Seyar ol A'alam ol Nobala/v.19/pg.328

Abu Sa'eed Khedri narrated:" Duty of people is five things. But they accomplished four and left one."
The four things: Salah, Zakat, Fast of Ramadan and Hajj. He was asked about that one thing that people left it. He answered:"Welayat of Ali ibn Abi Talib." Sb asked:"Was it..

"Was it obligatory?", he answered: "Yes."
Khotat o Sham/v.6/pg.245

Also you can find many Ayas which the word 'Wali' means guardian, successor and leader.
A'raf:196/Yosuf:101/Esra:33/Naml:49/Nisa:45/◇Nisa:75/Kahf:17/◇Baqara:275/Jathia:19/Saba':41/Esra:111

We don't deny that 'Wali' means friend too. But some people use this meaning to refute the other meaning. It's bad and illogical.

We showed that Wali means political leader in the words of Quran. And also in the words of Sahabas. And we ...

And we also showed the usage of the word 'Wali' in the words of the Prophet (SAA).
Sunnies accept the meaning of the leadership when Abubakr and Umar are talking. But don't accept this meaning when the Prophet is talking about Imam Ali.
Who seeks the truth, will find it.
