[Machine] I heard Ali saying: "Perform Hajj before you are unable to do so." It is as if I am looking at an Abyssinian with thick legs, demolishing a wall brick by brick with a pickaxe in his hand. I said to him, "What do you say according to your opinion or did you hear it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" He said, "No, but I heard it from your Prophet ﷺ ."
سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا ؓ يَقُولُ حُجُّوا قَبْلَ أَنْ لَا تَحُجُّوا فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى حَبَشِيٍّ أَصْمَعَ أَفْدَعَ بِيَدِهِ مِعْوَلٌ يَهْدِمُهَا حَجَرًا حَجَرًا فَقُلْتُ لَهُ شَيْءٌ بِرَأْيِكَ تَقُولُ أَوْ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَا وَالَّذِي فَلَقَ الْحَبَّةَ وَبَرَأَ النَّسَمَةَ وَلَكِنْ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ نَبِيِّكُمْ ﷺ
