Description
Alūsī in his commentary in Sarḥ al-Khurridah, Pages 3 and 15 on the verses of ʿAbd al-Bāqī ʿUmarī Effendi, who is also a descendant of the second caliph, writes in his book Sarḥ al-Khurridah al-Ghaybīyah fī Sharḥ al-Qasīdah al-‘Aynīyah. He quotes Effendi’s poem as follows:
"You are the exalted Ali, whose status is derived from the highest divine position, and you are at the peak of human elevation."
"God brought you to Mecca and placed you in the Ka‘bah, and this is how you were descended."
Alūsī continues in his commentary:
"The fact that Amīr al-Mu’minīn Ali ibn Abī Ṭālib (may Allah honor his face) was born in the house of God is a well-known matter, mentioned in the books of both the Sunni and Shia scholars."

By carefully considering Alūsī's words, we can understand that, as a prominent Sunni scholar, he considers the birth of Amīr al-Mu’minīn (peace be upon him) inside the Ka‘bah as a well-known fact, and he acknowledges that both Shia and Sunni books have addressed this issue.
