The Hadith of Position (Arabic: حديث المنزلة‎‎, Hadith al-Manzilah) is a Sahih Hadith in Islamic traditions, in which Muhammad draws a parallel between himself and Musa (Moses) and Ali to Haroun (Aaron). It is one of the primary hadiths used by the Shia to justify Imam Ali's right in the Succession of the Islamic prophet, Muhammad; Sunnis however, interpret it otherwise and do not consider Ali to be the successor stating that Haroun (Aaron) did not succeed Musa (Moses) .
