This article deals with verses from the Quran that are said to have been revealed about Ali ibn Abi Talib. In a hadith attributed to Ibn Abbas, he knows more than 300 verses of the Quran about Ali. The majority of Islamic commentators believe that Ali ibn Abi Talib name isn't mentioned in the Quran. A notable exception is Ja'far Ibn al-Haytham who, in his Kitab al-Munazarat, points out that there are explicit uses of the words ʿAliyyan (Arabic: عَلِيًّا), ʿAliyyun (عَلِيٌّ), and ʿAlayya (عَلَيَّ) in the Quran which he believes are explicit references to Ali by name, modified according to Arabic grammatical rules.
