What is the authenticity of attributing the circulated saying to Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib, which includes his answer to: What is the obligatory and the most obligatory? And what is the near and the nearest? And what is the wondrous and the most wondrous? And what is the difficult and the most difficult?
