[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ launched the expedition of Tabuk, he left Ali behind in Medina. People talked negatively about Ali and disliked his company, so Ali followed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until he caught up with him on the way. Ali said, "O Messenger of Allah, you left me in Medina with the weak and the women until they said negative things about me." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "O Ali, I only left you behind to take care of my family. Are you not pleased to be to me like Haroon was to Musa, except that there will be no prophet after me?"
