‘Ali adjured the people at ar-Rahbah, saying: Whoever heard the messenger of Allah ﷺ speak on the day of Ghadeer Khumm, let him stand up. And (of the people) around Sa’eed, six men stood up, and (of the people) around Zaid, six men stood up, and they testified that they had heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say to ‘Ali ؓ on the day of Ghadeer Khumm. “Isnʿt it Allah Who is closer to the believers?” They said: Yes. He said: ʿO Allah, if I am a personʿs mawla (friend and supporter) then ‘Ali is also his mawla; O Allah, take as friends those who take him as a friend, and take as enemies those who take him as an enemy.” A hadeeth like that of Abu Ishaq was narrated from ʿAmr Dhi Murr, i.e., from Saʿeed and Zaid, and he added to it: ʿand support those who support him, and forsake those who forsake him.ʿ A similar report was narrated from Abut-Tufail from Zaid bin Arqam from the Prophet ﷺ.

سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ إِلا قَامَ قَالَ فَقَامَ مِنْ قِبَلِ سَعِيدٍ سِتَّةٌ وَمِنْ قِبَلِ زَيْدٍ سِتَّةٌ فَشَهِدُوا أَنَّهُمْ سَمِعُوا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِعَلِيٍّ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ أَلَيْسَ اللهُ أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ اللهُمَّ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ

ʿIf I am a personʿs mawla (friend and supporter) then ʿAli is also his mawla.” And the people added after that: ʿSo take as friends those who take him as a friend and take as enemies those who take him as an enemy.”

حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو مَرْيَمَ وَرَجُلٌ مِنْ جُلَسَاءِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلاهُ قَالَ فَزَادَ النَّاسُ بَعْدُ وَالِ مَنْ وَالاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Am I not more worthy of the believers than themselves?" They said, "Indeed, you are." He said, "Whoever I am his Mawla (master), then 'Ali is his Mawla." Ma'mun narrated that some people reported to him from Zaid that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Allah, be a supporter to the one who supports him (Ali) and be an enemy to the one who opposes him."

إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَلَسْتُ أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ قَالَ مَيْمُونٌ فَحَدَّثَنِي بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ عَنْ زَيْدٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ

[AI] The Prophet ﷺ heard saying, "O Allah, whoever I am his master, Ali is his master. O Allah, befriend those who befriend him and oppose those who oppose him." Sixteen men stood up and witnessed it.

سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ اللهُمَّ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ قَالَ فَقَامَ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا فَشَهِدُوا

[AI] Did you hear the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, saying, "Whoever I am his master, then Ali is his master. O Allah, be a supporter of whoever supports him and an enemy of whoever opposes him"? He said, "Yes." He said, "Then why did you fight against me?" He said, "I did not remember." So Talha Al-Hasan, who is Al-Arni and is not trustworthy, turned away.

سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ يَقُولُ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَلَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ» ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَلِمَ تُقَاتِلُنِي؟ قَالَ لَمْ أَذَكُرْ قَالَ فَانْصَرَفَ طَلْحَةُالحسن هو العرني ليس بثقة

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard saying on the day of Ghadir Khumm, "When people stood up, testifying that they heard him say, 'Do you not know that I have more authority over the believers than themselves?' They replied, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'Whoever I am his master, then Ali is his master. O Allah, befriend whoever befriends him and be an enemy to whoever opposes him.' After that, I went out with something in my heart, and then I met Zaid bin Arqam and mentioned this to him. He said, 'Indeed, we have heard it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying the same thing to him.'"

سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ لَمَّا قَامَ فَقَامَ أُنَاسٌ فَشَهِدُوا أَنَّهُمْ سَمِعُوهُ يَقُولُ «أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ؟ » قَالُوا بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَإِنَّ هَذَا مَوْلَاهُ اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ» فَخَرَجْتُ وَفِي نَفْسِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ فَلَقِيتُ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ قَدْ سَمِعْنَاهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ

قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا يَنْشُدُ النَّاسَ يَقُولُ أَنْشُدُ امْرَأً مُسْلِمًا سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ إِلَّا قَامَ فَقَامَ اثْنَا عَشَرَ رَجُلًا فَقَالُوا أَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِيَدِ عَلِيٍّ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَلَسْتُ أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلًى لَهُ فَهَذَا مَوْلَاهُ اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ

سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ لَمَّا قَامَ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ ثَلَاثَةُ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا فَشَهِدُوا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَلَسْتُ أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ قَالُوا بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِ عَلِيٍّ فَقَالَ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَهَذَا مَوْلَاهُ اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ وَأَحِبَّ مَنْ أَحَبَّهُ وَأَبْغِضْ مَنْ أَبْغَضَهُ وَانْصُرْ مَنْ نَصَرَهُ وَاخْذُلْ مَنْ خَذَلَهُ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلاهُ اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ

سَمِعَ رَسُولَ الله صلى الله عيه وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ فَقَامَ سِتَّةٌ فَشَهِدُوا أَنَّهُمْ سَمِعُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ أَلَسْتُ أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ أَوَلَسْتُ أَوْلَى بِكُمْ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلاهُ اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying on the day of Ghadeer Khumm, "O Allah, whoever I am his master, then Ali is his master. O Allah, be a supporter of whoever supports him, and an enemy of whoever opposes him. Assist whoever assists him."

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ «اللهُمَّ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلَيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ وَانْصُرْ مَنْ نَصَرَهُ وأَعِنْ مُنْ أَعَانَهُ»

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying on the day of Ghadir Khumm, "Whoever I am his master, then Ali is his master. O Allah, support the one who supports him and be an enemy to those who hate him."

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ»

[AI] "Ali stood before the people and said, 'I will recite a poem about a man who heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "Whomever I am his master, Ali is his master. O Allah, be the supporter of whoever supports Ali and be the enemy of whoever opposes him." Twelve Badri Sahabah bore witness to this.' Zaid said, 'I was among those who remained silent, and my eyesight was lost.'"

نَشَدَ عَلِيٌّ النَّاسَ أَنْشُدُ اللهَ رَجُلًا سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ» فَقَامَ اثْنَا عَشَرَ بَدْرِيًّا فَشَهِدُوا بِذَلِكَ قَالَ زَيْدٌ «وَكُنْتُ أَنَا فِيمَنْ كَتَمَ فَذَهَبَ بَصَرِي»

[AI] Amr ibn Thammar and Zaid ibn Arqam reported that the Prophet ﷺ delivered a sermon on the day of Ghadeer Khumm, saying, "Whoever I am his leader, then Ali is his leader. O Allah, be a supporter of whoever supports him and an enemy of whoever opposes him. And give victory to whoever supports him, and help whoever helps him."

عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ ذِي مَرٍّ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ قَالَا خَطَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ فَقَالَ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ وَانْصُرْ مَنْ نَصَرَهُ وأَعِنْ مَنْ أَعَانَهُ»

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ addressed us on the day of Ghadir and said, "Am I not closer to the believers than their own selves?" They replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He then took the hand of Ali and said, "Whoever I am his mawla (master), Ali is also his mawla. O Allah, be a helper to whoever helps him and an enemy to whoever opposes him."

خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْغَدِيرِ فَقَالَ «أَلَسْتُ أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ؟» قَالُوا بَلَى فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِ عَلِيٍّ ؓ فَقَالَ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ»

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever I am his Mawla (master), Ali is his Mawla. O Allah, be a Wali (guardian) to the one who supports him (Ali), and be an enemy to the one who opposes him (Ali)." Then I (the narrator) asked for clarification, and he said, "You are only in a position where I (the Messenger of Allah) am."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ» فَأَخَذْتُ أَسْتَزِيدُهُ فَقَالَ «إِنَّمَا أَنْتَهِي حَيْثُ انْتَهَى بِي»

[AI] That he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Whoever I am his guardian, then Ali is his guardian."

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ»

[AI] I heard that we camped with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a valley called Wadi Khumm. He ordered for the prayer to be performed, so it was performed on rocks. Then he delivered a sermon and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was shaded by a garment hanging on a tree, shielding him from the sun. He said, "Do you not know that I have more authority over the believers than they have over themselves?" They replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Whoever I am his Mawla, then Ali is his Mawla. O Allah, be a friend to his friends and an enemy to his enemies."

أَسْمَعُ نَزَلْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِوَادٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ وَادِي خُمٍّ فَأَمَرَ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَصَلَّاهَا بِالْهَجِيرِ فَخَطَبَنَا وَظُلِّلَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِثَوْبٍ عَلَى شَجَرَةٍ مِنَ الشَّمْسِ فَقَالَ «أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَوْلَى بِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ وَمُؤْمِنَةٍ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ؟» قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ «فَمَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَإِنَّ عَلِيًّا مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ»

from the Prophet ﷺ: "For whomever I am his Mawla then 'Ali is his Mawla." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3713)

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ»

[AI] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Ali ibn Abi Talib on the day of Ghadir Khumm, "O Allah, whoever I am his master, Ali is his master. O Allah, be a friend to whoever is a friend to him and be an enemy to whoever is an enemy to him."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ «اللهُمَّ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ»

"اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ كنتُ مَوْلاهُ فَعَلِيُّ مَوْلاهُ، اللَّهُمَّ والِ مَنْ وَالاهُ، وَعَاد مِنْ عَادَاهُ، وَانْصُرْ مَنْ نصَرَه، وَأعِنْ مَنْ أَعَانَهُ" .

"مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلاهُ فعَلِيٌّ مَوْلاهُ، اللَّهُمَّ وال مَنْ والاهُ، وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ".

"مَنْ كنت مَوْلاهُ فعَلِيٌّ مَوْلاهُ، اللَّهُمَّ وَال مَنْ والاهُ، وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ، وَأَعِزَّ (*) مَنْ نصَرَهُ، وأَعِنْ مَنْ أَعَانَهُ".

"عَنْ عَلَىٍّ: أَنَّ النَّبيَّ ﷺ أَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ يَوْمَ غَدِير خُمِّ فَقَالَ: الَّلهُمَّ مَن كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلىٌّ مَوْلَاهُ، فَزَادَ النَّاسُ بَعْدُ: الَّلهُمْ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ، وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ".

"عن زيد بن أرقم قال: نَشَدَ عَلِىٌّ النَّاسَ: مَنْ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ: أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّى أوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنيِنَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ؟ قَالُوا: بَلَى، قَالَ: فَمَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلاَهُ فَعَلِىٌّ مَوْلاَهُ، الَّلهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالاَهُ، وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ، فَقَامَ اثْنَا عَشَرَ رَجُلًا فَشَهِدُوا بِذَلِكَ".

"عن عمير بن سعيد قال: شهدتُ عليّا عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ نَاشَدَ أصحابَ رسولِ اللهِ ﷺ : مَنْ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ يَقُولُ: مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلاَهُ فَعَلِىٌّ مَوْلاَهُ، اللهُمَّ والِ مَنْ وَالاَهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ؟ ".

"عَنْ رِفَاعَةَ بْنِ إِيَاسٍ الضَّبِىِّ، عَنْ أبيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ: كنْتُ مَعَ عَلِىٍّ فِى الْجَمَلِ، فَبَعَثَ إِلَى طَلْحَةَ أنِ الْقَنِى: فَلَقِيَهُ، فَقَالَ: أَنْشُدُكَ اللهَ: أسَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلاَهُ فَعَلِىٌّ مَوْلاَهُ، الَّلهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالاهُ وَعادِ من عَادَاهُ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فِلِمَ تُقَاتِلُنِى؟ ".
