No authentic describes Ali ibn Abi Talib with the attributes of prophets. Ibn al-Jawzi mentioned it in "Al-Mawdu'at" (Fabricated Hadith). "Al-Mala'" transmitted the hadith in his biography without a chain of narration (), and his book is full of fabricated narrations, so it is not permissible to attribute it to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him.
