Hakem Haskani,[5] a Sunni scholar, quotes in the book Shawahed ol-Tanzil le-Qawaed al-Tafzil[6] as follows:

From Abu Barzeh:[7][8][9] The Messenger of God recited the verse "إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ أُولَٰئِكَ هُمْ خَيْرُ الْبَرِيَّةِ" and then said: "O Ali, khayr ol-bareyyah (the best of creatures) refers to you and your Shiites".[10]
From Muhammad al-Baqir: The Messenger of God recited the verse of khayr ol-bareyyah and then said to Ali: "Khayr ol-bareyyah are you and your Shiites".[11]
From Jabir ibn Abd Allah:[12][13][14] We were sitting with the Messenger of God next to the Kaaba, when Imam Ali entered, the Messenger of God said: "My brother came", and then said: "I swear by the house of God that this man believed in God before all of you and obeyed God more than all of you. He is more faithful to the divine covenant than all of you, and he judges by the command of God more than all of you, and he is more just in dividing the Bayt al-mal, and he is better than you in dealing with the weak and has a higher position", it was at this time that the verse of khayr ol-bareyyah was revealed.[15]
