Saiyidina Ali AS was not only a sahaba loved so much by Rasullullah (PBUH) but also an extraordinaty human being whose knowledge like the ocean, fluency of his tounge was matchless as an expert in literature and speech, in addition to a hero that no one can deny his reliability among the lines of spelled heroes. The first male believer in Islam, the Prophet’s standard-bearer in battle, the Door of the City of Knowledge, the most judicious of the Companions, and the "Possessor of a wise heart and inquiring tongue.
As a loved-most friend who is brave, Saiyidina Ali was never behind in any war both large and small made by the Prophet Muhammad. He had an important role in the famous battle of Badr, at that time he was a strong and handsome young man who was still in the 20s. In that battle, the Prophet has been handed the banner of war to Saiyidina Ali for the first time.where he was performing his duties in the war with distinction at all. After the war was over, the companions of the Prophet did not found him among them, when they wondered, suddenly he appeared with Ali, then the Prophet said, "actually I was behind you for treating wounds in Ali's stomach". From this incident, it can be seen just how great love of the Prophet to Ali and the enormity of the sacrifice of Ali in upholding the glory of religion Islam.
This is one of Ali's sayings narrated by Abu Nu'aym with his chains:
From `Abd Khayr: "Goodness does not consist in having much property and children, but in doing many good deeds, increasing your gentle character, and adorning yourself before people with the worship of your Lord. Then, if you do well, glorify Allah; if you do ill, ask forgiveness of Him. There is no good in the world except for two types of people: someone who sins and then follows up with repentence, and someone who races to do good deeds. What is done in Godwariness is never little, and how can something be little if accepted by Allah?"
I am currently reading some books about him. So as for me, he is very inspiring.

The Messenger of Allah (PBUH&HF) said: "He who wants to see Noah (AS) in his determination, Adam (AS) in his knowledge, Abraham (AS) in his clemency, Moses (AS) in his intelligence and Jesus (AS) in his religious devotion should look at Ali Ibn Abi Talib (AS)."
(Musnad Ahmad Ibn Hanbal and Tafsir al-Kabir, by Fakhruddin al-Razi)
There are a thousand more hadiths about his virtues, and there are many verses in the Qur'an believed to point to him according to scholars from all sects.
InshAllah you get to visit his shrine one day. It is in my hometown :) and it is breath-taking. I guarantee you that whatever you ask from Allah in that holy place will be granted to you.
