 Ghadir Khum (Part 2 of 3)
Thus, logically speaking, the word MAWLA can not be interpreted as friend, and we should rather use its other more-frequently- used meanings which are Leader and Guardian.
It is interesting to note that the words WALI and MAWLA are also used in Quran frequently with the meaning of master and guardian.
In fact Imam Ali was asking this question to reiterate the importance of the word MAWLA and showing that people at that time did not mean it friend for him, and that what they meant is master of the believers.

Yet even the pending priority does not actually agree with the general meaning of this hadith, for it obviously does not necessitate that `Ali (as) should not have been the mawla of the three caliphs, nor the mawla of anyone who died while being contemporary to any of them.
Consider how his (`Umer's) statement proved that `Ali was his mawla and the mawla of every believing man and woman right then, not by virtue of futurity, since the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him and his progeny, on behalf of the Almighty Allah, conveyed the same on the Ghadir Day.
Do you know who this man is? He is your mawla, my mawla, and the mawla of all believers; whoever rejects him as the mawla is certainly not a Muslim," as stated near the conclusion of Chapter 11 of Ibn Hajar's Al-Sawa`iq al-Muhriqa.

The Sunnis say that the word "mawla" uttered by the Prophet in Ghadir does not mean "master or lord", it means "friend".
This could not be anything but the position of the mawla in the sense of ruler, master and lord.
In this line, Hassãn ibn Thãbit has understood the term "mawla" in the meaning of "Imam and Guide" which clearly proves that the Prophet was talking about his successor, and that he was not introducing 'Ali as a "friend" but as a "leader".

 Hadith of the pond of Khumm - TvWiki, the free encyclopedia
According to numerous Islamic scholars (both Sunni and Shi'a), the event at Ghadir Khumm is a credible one which has been narrated by about 110 companions of Muhammad.
The debate lies in the definition attributed by either side to the term mawla adopted in the Prophetic tradition.
Sunni resources counter by the fact that the Prophet could have assigned Ali in his Farewell sermon few days before the incident of Gadir, when all the muslims attended the Hajj and listened to his final cermon.
