The circulating : "O Ali, do not sleep until you have done certain things: recited the entire Qur’an, given 4,000 dirhams in charity, visited the Kaaba, reserved your place in Paradise, and appeased your adversaries" has no basis. Rather, it is one of the fabricated, false hadiths made up by some misguided sects. The imams of hadith have warned against it.
