Maulvi (مولوی)

Loyal to (Allah-azwj)

(When Imam Ali-asws cut a hand of a thief, he kept on praising Imam Ali-asws while walking in streets, in a lengthy Hadith using the word ‘مَوْلَوِيٌّ’):

قَطَعَ يَمِينِي إِمَامٌ حَظِيٌّ بَدْرِيٌّ أُحُدِيٌّ مَكِّيٌّ مَدَنِيٌّ أَبْطَحِيٌّ هَاشِمِيٌّ قُرَشِيٌّ أَرْيَحِيٌّ مَوْلَوِيٌّ طَالِبِيٌّ جَرِيُّ قَوِيٌّ لَوْذَعِيٌّ الْوَلِيُّ الْوَصِيُّ

My right hand was cut by the Imam-asws, the pure of status, (participant of) Badr, (participant of) Ohad, (from) Makkah, (from) Madani, (from) Bat’ha, Hashimite, Qureyshite, of capacious morals, loyal (to Allah-azwj), strong, the iron-hearted, the guardian, the successor (an extract).[1]
