[Machine] One of the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had several doors in the mosque. So one day, he said, "Close all these doors except for Ali's door." Some people spoke about this, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up and praised and glorified Allah. Then he said, "After that, I have been commanded to close these doors except for Ali's door." He (the companion) said, "By Allah, I did not close or open anything, but I followed what I was commanded to do."
