Interestingly, on the 12th of the blessed month of Ramazan in the first year after Hijra (migration from Mecca to Medina), Prophet Mohammad (SAWA) established the covenant of brotherhood between pairs of Muslims. Thus, Muslims became brothers two- by- two according to their thoughts and friendship. For instance, Salman became the brother of Abuzar. Finally, the Prophet made Imam Ali his brother as there was no one qualified to be his brother.
