I have this HTML code :

<div class="headerPages">
        <div style="right: 0px">
          <ul dir="rtl">
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/1.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="subscribes.php">1</a></li>
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/2.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="advertisement.php">2</a></li>
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/3.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="contactPage.php">3</a></li>
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/4.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="newsBar.php">4</a></li>
          </ul>
        </div>
        <div style="right: 0px; opacity: 0">
          <ul dir="rtl">
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/1.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="manageAlbums.php">5</a></li>
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/2.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="words.php">6</a></li>
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/3.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="addVideo.php?type=1">7</a></li>
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/4.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="addVideo.php?type=2">8</a></li>
          </ul>
        </div>
        <div style="right: 0px; opacity: 0">
          <ul dir="rtl">
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/1.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="infoControl.php">9</a></li>
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/2.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="partners.php">10</a></li>
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/3.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="personalPage.php">11</a></li>
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/4.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="manageVotes.php">12</a></li>
          </ul>
        </div>
        <div style="right: 0px; opacity: 0">
          <ul dir="rtl">
            <li class="headerLinksItem"><img src="images/numbers/1.png" alt="" width="20" height="22" align="absmiddle" /> &nbsp;<a href="main.php">13</a></li>
          </ul>
        </div>
      </div>

and this javascript code:

$('.headerPages').cycle({
        timeout: 0,
        next:   '#next',
        prev:   '#prev'
});

every thing is working fine but when I am trying to click links in each slide, I can't and I get links from the prev slide because of the opacity it's set to 0 and the z-index property like layers as this plugin work.

I tried to use cssAfter, cssBefore and it's not working also

any idea how to solve this problem?

Your markup is invalid. br tags can't be directly contained by ul tags (ul can only directly contain li tags). Invalid markup can make manipulation with JavaScript and the DOM (directly, or with a library) problematic, esp. cross-browser. So step 1 would be to correct the markup the point where it passes validation either completely, or "just" with attribute errors but not structural ones. - T.J. Crowder
I removed all br elements and I am still facing the same problem - Saleh
Good deal. At least you know it's not the markup. :-) - T.J. Crowder

I´ve came across the same problem today and found out that cycle sets a class for the active slide. So you easily can use CSS instead of the callback function:

.cycle-slide-active {
    z-index: 1001 !important;
}

I had the exact same issue with this otherwise perfect plugin. After a bit of fumbling, I settled for a solution using the after callback to automatically reset the z-index. It should be doable using cssAfter as well.

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#slideshow').cycle({ 
        // options there,
        after: onAfter
    });
});


function onAfter(out)
{
    // Dyamically set the greater z-index for the current slide.
    // Works with any number of slides.

    $(this).css('z-index', Number($(out).css('z-index'))+1);
    $(out).css('z-index', Number($(out).css('z-index'))-1);
};
