Infallibility of Ali was created by Abdullahmusa
Assalamu Alaikum,
I want to know if the zaydiyyah consider Ali Ibn abi Talib to be infallible? Meaning somebody who cannot err.

Here some statements of our Aimma (عليهم السلام )and Scholars on this Question:
قال الإمام أحمد بن عيسى بن زيد بن علي بن الحسين (ع) ، فيما سَمِعَه عنه إسماعيل بن إسحاق ، أنّه سُئِلَ : (( عَن رَجُلٍ تَجوزُ شَهَادَتُه وحدَه ؟ فَقال [ أحمد بن عيسى (ع) ] : لا ، إلاَّ عَلياً والحسَن والحسين، فِقيل : وكَيفَ ذلك؟ قال: لأنّهم مَعصُومُون ))[1] ، وفي ذلك روى الحافظ محمد بن سليمان الكوفي رحمة الله عليه في كتابه مناقب أمير المؤمنين ، بسنده ، عن الإمام زيد بن علي (ع) أنّه قال : ((المعصُومون منّا خمسة : النبي (ص) وعليّ وفاطمة والحسن والحسين ))[2] ، ورواهُ عنه (ع) أيضاً ابن عساكر في تاريخ دمشق[3] ، وروى الحافظ محمد بن سليمان (ع) عن الباقر (ع) أنه قال: ((المعصُومون منّا خمسة : رسول الله وعلي وفاطمة والحسن والحسين صلوات الله عليهم أجمعين ))[4] . وقال الإمام المنصور بالله عبدالله بن حمزة (ع) ، مُتكلّما عن العِصمَة الفرديّة في كتابه (الرسالة النافعة بالأدلة الواقعة) : ((وَلَمْ تَقَع العِصْمَةُ فِيمَن عَلِمْنَا مِن وَلدِ إسمَاعيل إلاّ لِمُحمّدٍ وَعَليٍّ وَفَاطِمَة وابنَيهَا سَلام الله عليهِم أجْمَعِين))[5] .
Imam Ahmad ibn ‘Isa ibn Zayd ibn ‘Ali ibn al-Husayn (peace be upon him) said—according to what Isma‘il ibn Ishaq heard directly from him—that he was asked:
“Is there any man whose testimony alone is acceptable?”
Ahmad ibn ‘Isa (peace be upon him) replied:
“No—except for ‘Ali, al-Hasan, and al-Husayn.”
He was then asked:
“And how is that?”
He said:
“Because they are infallible (ma‘sūmūn).” [1]
In this regard, al-Hāfiẓ Muhammad ibn Sulayman al-Kūfī, may God have mercy on him, narrated in his book Manāqib Amīr al-Mu’minīn (The Virtues of the Commander of the Faithful), through his chain of transmission from Imam Zayd ibn ‘Ali (peace be upon him), who said:
“The infallible ones among us are five: the Prophet (peace be upon him), ‘Ali, Fāṭimah, al-Hasan, and al-Husayn.” [2]
This same narration is also reported by Ibn ‘Asākir in his Tārīkh Dimashq (History of Damascus) [3], attributed to him (peace be upon him).
Al-Ḥāfiẓ Muhammad ibn Sulayman (peace be upon him) also narrated from Imam al-Bāqir (peace be upon him) that he said:
“The infallible ones among us are five: the Messenger of Allah, ‘Ali, Fāṭimah, al-Hasan, and al-Husayn—may Allah’s blessings be upon them all.” [4]
Imam al-Manṣūr bi-‘Llāh ʿAbdullāh ibn Ḥamzah (peace be upon him) also spoke about individual infallibility (al-‘iṣmah al-fardiyyah) in his book al-Risālah al-Nāfiʿah bi’l-Adillah al-Wāqiʿah:
“And we know of no one among the descendants of Isma‘il to whom infallibility has been granted—except for Muḥammad, ‘Ali, Fāṭimah, and her two sons—peace be upon them all.” [5]
