[Machine] I was with Ali when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered him to go to Yemen. Ali mentioned the narration of his arrival and said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked me, 'What did you do?' I said, 'I performed the rites of ihram following the Prophet's ihram.' He ﷺ said, 'I have already offered the sacrificial animal and performed sa'y (the walking between Safa and Marwa) in this narration.' I (Ali) performed sa'y, but this is not mentioned in Jabir ibn Abdullah's narration when he described Ali's arrival and his ihram. The narration of Jabir has the most authentic chain of narrators and the best context, and along with Jabir's narration is the narration of Anas ibn Malik."  

كُنْتُ مَعَ عَلِيٍّ ؓ حينَ أَمَّرَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْيَمَنِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ فِي قَدُومِ عَلِيٍّ ؓ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كَيْفَ صَنَعْتَ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ أَهْلَلْتُ بِإِهْلَالِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنِّي قَدْ سُقْتُ الْهَدْيَ وَقَرَنْتُ كَذَا فِي هَذِهِ الرِّوَايَةِ وَقَرَنْتُ وَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ فِي حَدِيثِ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ حِينَ وَصَفَ قَدُومَ عَلِيٍّ ؓ وَإِهْلَالَهُ وَحَدِيثُ جَابِرٍ أَصَحُّ سَنَدًا وَأَحْسَنُ سِيَاقَةً وَمَعَ حَدِيثِ جَابِرٍ حَدِيثُ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ
