[Machine] Ali ibn Abi Talib complained to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so he stood among us as a speaker and I heard him say, "O people, do not complain about Ali, for by Allah, he is the most fearful in the presence of Allah and in the way of Allah."  

شَكَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ النَّاسُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَامَ فِينَا خَطِيبًا فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ لَا تَشْكُوا عَلِيًّا فَوَاللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لَأَخْشَنُ فِي ذَاتِ اللَّهِ وَفِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Which one of you will be my deputy in this world and the Hereafter?" Each of them replied, "Will you be my deputy in this world and the Hereafter?" Until it came to Ali, who said, "I will be your deputy in this world and the Hereafter." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "You are my deputy in this world and the Hereafter."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «أَيُّكُمْ يَتَوَلَّانِي فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ؟» فَقَالَ لِكُلِّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ «أَيَتَوَلَّانِي فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ؟» فَقَالَ لَا حَتَّى مَرَّ عَلَى أَكْثَرِهِمْ فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ أَنَا أَتَوَلَّاكَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ فَقَالَ «أَنْتَ وَلِيِّي فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ»  

[Machine] "Regarding it, Al-Dhahabi in summary."  

عنه الذهبي في التلخيص  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying to Ali: "O Ali, blessed is he who loves you, believes in you, and woe to he who hates you and denies you."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِعَلِيٍّ «يَا عَلِيُّ طُوبَى لِمَنْ أَحَبَّكَ وَصَدَّقَ فِيكَ وَوَيْلٌ لِمَنْ أَبْغَضَكَ وَكَذَّبَ فِيكَ»  

[Machine] "Ali, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me to Yemen. So, I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I am a young man and I receive judgments that I do not have knowledge about.' He placed his hand on my chest and said, 'O Allah, make his tongue firm and guide his heart.' After that, I never doubted any judgment or any decree."  

عَلِيٌّ بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي رَجُلٌ شَابٌّ وَأَنَّهُ يَرِدُ عَلَيَّ مِنَ الْقَضَاءِ مَا لَا عَلْمَ لِي بِهِ قَالَ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى صَدْرِي وَقَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْ لِسَانَهُ وَاهْدِ قَلْبَهُ» فَمَا شَكَكْتُ فِي الْقَضَاءِ أَوْ فِي قَضَاءٍ بَعْدُ  

[Machine] While I was with the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him), a man from Yemen came and started talking to the Prophet (Peace be upon him) and informing him. He said, "O Messenger of Allah, three men came to Ali and they are quarreling over a child. They agreed on one woman when she was in her purity. He (Ali) said to them: 'Both of you have good intentions regarding this child.' Then he said: 'You are partners in dispute. I will resolve the matter between you. Whoever I decide for, the child will be his, and he will pay two-thirds of the blood money to the other. So he resolved the matter between them and decided for one of them, and he gave him the child." The Prophet (Peace be upon him) laughed until his molars were visible.  

بَيْنَا أَنَا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذْ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْيَمَنِ فَجَعَلَ يُحَدِّثُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَيُخْبِرُهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَتَى عَلِيًّا ثَلَاثَةُ نَفَرٍ يَخْتَصِمُونَ فِي وَلَدٍ وَقَعُوا عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ فِي طُهْرٍ وَاحِدٍ فَقَالَ لِاثْنَيْنِ طِيبَا نَفْسًا بِهَذَا الْوَلَدِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَنْتُمْ شُرَكَاءُ مُتَشَاكِسُونَ إِنِّي مُقْرِعٌ بَيْنَكُمْ فَمَنْ قُرِعَ لَهُ فَلَهُ الْوَلَدُ وَعَلَيْهِ ثُلُثَا الدِّيَةِ لِصَاحِبَيْهِ فَأَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَقُرِعَ لِأَحَدِهِمْ فَدَفَعَ إِلَيْهِ الْوَلَدَ قَالَ «فَضَحِكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذُهُ» أَوْ قَالَ أَضْرَاسُهُ  

[Machine] The Prophet (pbuh) said, "I do not know about it except for what Ali said."  

النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَا أَعْلَمُ فِيهَا إِلَّا مَا قَالَ عَلِيٌّ»  

[Machine] "I walked with the Prophet ﷺ to a woman who slaughtered a sheep for us. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'A man from the people of Jannah (Paradise) will enter.' Then Abu Bakr entered, and then the Prophet ﷺ said, 'A man from the people of Jannah will enter.' Then Umar entered, and then the Prophet ﷺ said, 'A man from the people of Jannah will enter.' O Allah, if You will, make him Ali bin Abi Talib.' Then Ali bin Abi Talib entered."  

مَشَيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ فَذَبَحَتْ لَنَا شَاةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَيَدْخُلَنَّ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ» فَدَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ «لَيَدْخُلَنَّ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ» فَدَخَلَ عُمَرُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «لَيَدْخُلَنَّ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ شِئْتَ فَاجْعَلْهُ عَلِيًّا» قَالَ فَدَخَلَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The first among you to enter Paradise is the first among you who embraced Islam, Ali ibn Abi Talib." Adh-Dhahabi did not include this in his summarization.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَوَّلُكُمْ وَارِدًا عَلَى الْحَوْضِ أَوَّلُكُمْ إِسْلَامًا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص  

[Machine] "The first person to embrace Islam along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was Ali bin Abi Talib."  

«إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَنْ أَسْلَمَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ entered upon Fatimah and said, "Indeed, me, you, and this sleeper, meaning Ali, and these two, meaning Hasan and Husayn, will be in the same place on the Day of Judgment."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ فَقَالَ «إِنِّي وَإِيَّاكِ وَهَذَا النَّائِمُ يَعْنِي عَلِيًّا وَهُمَا يَعْنِي الْحَسَنَ وَالْحُسَيْنَ لَفِي مَكَانٍ وَاحِدٍ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»  

[Machine] I asked Sa'id ibn Jubayr and said, "O Abu Abdullah, who carried the flag of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" He looked at me and said, "You seem to be in a state of confusion." I became angry and complained about him to his brothers from the Qur'ra (reciters). I said to them, "Are you not amazed by Sa'id? I asked him who carried the flag of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he looked at me and said, 'You seem to be in a state of confusion.'" They said, "You asked him while he was afraid of Al-Hajjaj and had sought refuge in the Ka'bah, so ask him now." So, I asked him and he said, "Ali carried it. This is what I heard from Abdullah ibn Abbas."  

سَأَلْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ جُبَيْرٍ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مَنْ كَانَ حَامِلُ رَايَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيَّ وَقَالَ كَأَنَّكَ رَخِيُّ الْبَالِ فَغَضِبْتُ وَشَكَوْتُهُ إِلَى إِخْوَانِهِ مِنَ الْقُرَّاءِ فَقُلْتُ أَلَا تَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ سَعِيدٍ؟ أَنِّي سَأَلْتُهُ مَنْ كَانَ حَامِلَ رَايَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيَّ وَقَالَ إِنَّكَ لَرَخِيُّ الْبَالِ قَالُوا إِنَّكَ سَأَلْتُهُ وَهُوَ خَائِفٌ مِنَ الْحَجَّاجِ وَقَدْ لَاذَ بِالْبَيْتِ فَسَلْهُ الْآنَ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ «كَانَ حَامِلَهَا عَلِيٌّ هَكَذَا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Paradise longs for three: Ali, Al-Ammar, and Salman."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اشْتَاقَتِ الْجَنَّةُ إِلَى ثَلَاثَةٍ عَلِيٍّ وَعَمَّارٍ وَسَلْمَانَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I asked my Lord, the Exalted and Glorious, that I should not marry anyone from my Ummah unless they are with me in Paradise, and He granted me this."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «سَأَلْتُ رَبِّي ﷻ أَنْ لَا أُزَوِّجَ أَحَدًا مِنْ أُمَّتِي وَلَا أَتَزَوَّجُ إِلَّا كَانَ مَعِي فِي الْجَنَّةِ فَأَعْطَانِي»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: It has been revealed to me regarding Ali three things, that he is the leader of the Muslims, the Imam of the righteous, and the commander of the brave warriors.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ فِي عَلِيٍّ ثَلَاثٍ أَنَّهُ سَيِّدُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَإِمَامُ الْمُتَّقِينَ وَقَائِدُ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ  

[Machine] And by Allah, if I meet him, I do not expect you to find him on the Day of Judgment standing by the pool of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, warding off the hypocrites with a staff made of 'Ausaj'. This was narrated to me by the trustworthy and truthful one, peace be upon him. Woe to the one who fabricates such lies!  

«وَاللَّهِ إِنْ لَقِيتُهُ وَمَا أَحْسَبُكَ تَلَقَّاهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ لَتَجِدَهُ قَائِمًا عَلَى حَوْضِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَذُودُ عَنْهُ رَايَاتِ الْمُنَافِقِينَ بِيَدِهِ عَصًا مِنْ عَوْسَجٍ» حَدَّثَنِيهِ الصَّادِقُ الْمَصْدُوقُ ﷺ وَقَدْ خَابَ مَنَ افْتَرَى  

The Messenger of Allah ؓ said: ʿShall I not teach you some words which, if you say them you will be forgiven, even though you are already forgiven: There is no god but Allah, Most High, the Almighty; there is no god but Him, the most Forbearing the Most Generous; glory be to Allah, Lord of the Mighty Throne; praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 1363)  

قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَا عَلِيُّ أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ كَلِمَاتٍ إِنْ قُلْتَهُنَّ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَكَ عَلَى أَنَّهُ مَغْفُورٌ لَكَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ الْحَلِيمُ الْكَرِيمُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ  

[Machine] "And I swear by the One whom I have taken an oath of allegiance to, if Ali were to make a covenant with the people, he would be the closest to the Prophet ﷺ. We returned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the morning, and he was saying, 'Has Ali come? Has Ali come?' repeatedly. Fatimah said, 'It is as if you have sent him on an errand.' She then said, 'He came afterwards.' Abi Salamah said, 'I thought he had some urgent need for him.' So we left the house and sat by the door, and I was closest to the door. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and poured his left hand on him and spoke to him privately. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away that day. So Ali was the closest to the people in commitment."  

وَالَّذِي أَحْلِفُ بِهِ إِنْ كَانَ عَلِيٌّ لَأَقْرَبَ النَّاسِ عَهْدًا بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ عُدْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ غَدَاةً وَهُوَ يَقُولُ «جَاءَ عَلِيٌّ؟ جَاءَ عَلِيٌّ؟» مِرَارًا فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ كَأَنَّكَ بَعَثْتَهُ فِي حَاجَةٍ قَالَتْ فَجَاءَ بَعْدُ قَالَتْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ لَهُ إِلَيْهِ حَاجَةً فَخَرَجْنَا مِنَ الْبَيْتِ فَقَعَدْنَا عِنْدَ الْبَابِ وَكُنْتُ مِنْ أَدْنَاهُمْ إِلَى الْبَابِ فَأَكَبَّ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَجَعَلَ يُسَارُّهُ وَيُنَاجِيهِ ثُمَّ قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ يَوْمِهِ ذَلِكَ فَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ أَقْرَبَ النَّاسِ عَهْدًا  

[Machine] While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was holding my hand as we were walking in the streets of Madinah, we passed by a garden. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, how beautiful this garden is!" He replied, "You will have something much better than this in Paradise."  

بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ آخِذٌ بِيَدِي وَنَحْنُ فِي سِكَكِ الْمَدِينَةِ إِذْ مَرَرْنَا بِحَدِيقَةٍ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا أَحْسَنَهَا مِنْ حَدِيقَةٍ قَالَ «لَكَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ أَحْسَنُ مِنْهَا»  

[Machine] I entered with the Prophet ﷺ to visit Ali ibn Abi Talib while he was sick. Abu Bakr and Umar were also present. They both changed their positions until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat down. One of them said to his companion, "I see nothing except his destruction." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, "He will not die except as a martyr and he will not die until he is filled with anger."  

دَخَلْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ يَعُودُهُ وَهُوَ مَرِيضٌ وَعِنْدَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ فَتَحَوَّلَا حَتَّى جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ مَا أُرَاهُ إِلَّا هَالِكٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّهُ لَنْ يَمُوتَ إِلَّا مَقْتُولًا وَلَنْ يَمُوتَ حَتَّى يَمْلَأَ غَيْظًا» إسناد واه  

[Machine] The following translation is not authentic: "The Prophet ﷺ ordered Ali bin Abi Talib to fight adulterers, oppressors, and rebels."  

«أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ بِقِتَالِ النَّاكِثِينَ وَالْقَاسِطِينَ وَالْمَارِقِينَ» لم يصح  

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying to Ali ibn Abi Talib, "You will fight against the traitors, the oppressors, and the rebels with swords, arrows, and spears." Abu Ayyub said, "O Messenger of Allah, with whom will you fight these people?" He said, "With Ali ibn Abi Talib."  

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ «تُقَاتِلُ النَّاكِثِينَ وَالْقَاسِطِينَ وَالْمَارِقِينَ بِالطُّرُقَاتِ وَالنَّهْرَوَانَاتِ وَبِالشَّعَفَاتِ» قَالَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَعَ مَنْ تُقَاتِلُ هَؤُلَاءِ الْأَقْوَامِ؟ قَالَ «مَعَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ»  

[Machine] Indeed, one of the things that the Prophet ﷺ entrusted to me is that the nation will betray me after him.  

إِنَّ مِمَّا عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنَّ الْأُمَّةَ سَتَغْدِرُ بِي بَعْدَهُ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said to Ali, "Verily, you will face challenges after me." Ali asked, "Will I be safe in my religion?" The Prophet replied, "You will be safe in your religion."  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِعَلِيٍّ «أَمَا إِنَّكَ سَتَلْقَى بَعْدِي جَهْدًا» قَالَ فِي سَلَامَةٍ مِنْ دِينِي؟ قَالَ «فِي سَلَامَةٍ مِنْ دِينِكَ»  

[Machine] "Do not come to Iraq, for if you do, you will be struck by the sword's flies." Ali said, "By Allah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said this to me before you." Abu Al-Aswad said, "I said to myself, 'O Allah, I have never seen a warrior speaking to people like this today.'"  

لَا تَأْتِ الْعِرَاقَ فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ أَتَيْتَهُ أَصَابَكَ بِهِ ذُبَابُ السَّيْفِ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ وَايْمُ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ قَالَهَا لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَبْلَكَ قَالَ أَبُو الْأَسْوَدِ فَقُلْتُ فِي نَفْسِي «يَا اللَّهُ مَا رَأَيْتُ كَالْيَوْمِ رَجُلٌ مُحَارِبٌ يُحَدِّثُ النَّاسَ بِمِثْلِ هَذَا»  

[Machine] I and Ali were companions in the Battle of Dhi Al-'Ashirah. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived at the place and stayed there, we saw some people from the tribe of Mudlij working in a date palm grove. Ali said to me, "O Abu Al-Yaqzhan, would you like to go and see what they are doing?" So we went to them and watched their work for a while. Then we felt sleepy and laid down on some palm tree trunks covered with soil. By Allah, only the Messenger of Allah ﷺ woke us up by gently moving us with his foot. We had become dirty with that soil. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, "O Abu Turab, for the dust that is seen on you." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Shall I inform you about the most wretched men?" We said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Al-Ohaymir, the Thamudite who hamstrung the she-camel, and the one who will harm you, O Ali, with this," and he pointed to his head, meaning the horn, "until blood will come out from it," meaning his beard.  

كُنْتُ أَنَا وَعَلِيٌّ رَفِيقَيْنِ فِي غَزْوَةِ ذِي الْعَشِيرَةِ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَقَامَ بِهَا رَأَيْنَا نَاسًا مِنْ بَنِي مُدْلِجٍ يَعْمَلُونَ فِي عَيْنٍ لَهُمْ فِي نَخْلٍ فَقَالَ لِي عَلِيٌّ يَا أَبَا الْيَقْظَانِ هَلْ لَكَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَ هَؤُلَاءِ فَنَنْظُرَ كَيْفَ يَعْمَلُونَ؟ فَجِئْنَاهُمْ فَنَظَرْنَا إِلَى عَمَلِهِمْ سَاعَةً ثُمَّ غَشِينَا النَّوْمُ فَانْطَلَقْتُ أَنَا وَعَلِيٌّ فَاضْطَجَعْنَا فِي صُورٍ مِنَ النَّخْلِ فِي دَقْعَاءَ مِنَ التُّرَابِ فَنِمْنَا فَوَاللَّهِ مَا أَيْقَظَنَا إِلَّا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُحَرِّكُنَا بِرِجْلِهِ وَقَدْ تَتَرَّبْنَا مِنْ تِلْكَ الدَّقْعَاءِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَا أَبَا تُرَابٍ» لِمَا يَرَى عَلَيْهِ مِنَ التُّرَابِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكُمَا بِأَشْقَى النَّاسِ رَجُلَيْنِ؟» قُلْنَا بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «أُحَيْمِرُ ثَمُودَ الَّذِي عَقَرَ النَّاقَةَ وَالَّذِي يَضُرُّ بِكَ يَا عَلِيُّ عَلَى هَذِهِ يَعْنِي قَرْنَهُ حَتَّى تَبْتَلَّ هَذِهِ مِنَ الدَّمِ يَعْنِي لِحْيَتَهُ »  

[Machine] "When Ali went to Siffin and I disliked fighting, so I came to the city and entered upon Maymuna bint Al-Harith. She asked, "Who are you?" I said, "I am from the people of Kufa." She asked, "Which group of them?" I said, "From the Banu 'Amir." She said, "Welcome, you are among generous people and close kin. What has brought you here?" I said, "Ali went to Siffin, and I disliked fighting, so we came here." She asked, "Did you pledge allegiance to him?" I said, "Yes." She said, "Then go back to him and be with him, for by Allah, he will not deviate nor lead others astray.""  

لَمَّا سَارَ عَلِيٌّ إِلَى صِفِّينَ كَرِهْتُ الْقِتَالَ فَأَتَيْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى مَيْمُونَةَ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ فَقَالَتْ «مِمَّنْ أَنْتَ؟» قُلْتُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ قَالَتْ «مِنْ أَيِّهُمْ؟» قُلْتُ مِنْ بَنِي عَامِرٍ قَالَتْ «رُحْبًا عَلَى رُحْبٍ وَقُرْبًا عَلَى قُرْبٍ تَجِيءُ مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟» قَالَ قُلْتُ سَارَ عَلِيٌّ إِلَى صِفِّينَ وَكَرِهْتُ الْقِتَالَ فَجِئْنَا إِلَى هَا هُنَا قَالَتْ «أَكُنْتَ بَايَعْتَهُ؟» قَالَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَتْ «فَارْجِعْ إِلَيْهِ فَكُنْ مَعَهُ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا ضَلَّ وَلَا ضَلَّ بِهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Looking at Ali is an act of worship."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «النَّظَرُ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ عِبَادَةٌ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Looking at the face of Ali is an act of worship." This statement was transmitted by Amr ibn Murrah from Ibrahim al-Nakha'i.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «النَّظَرُ إِلَى وَجْهِ عَلِيٍّ عِبَادَةٌ» تَابَعَهُ عَمْرُو بْنُ مُرَّةَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ النَّخَعِيِّ وذا موضوع  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Looking at the face of Ali is an act of worship."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «النَّظَرُ إِلَى وَجْهِ عَلِيٍّ عِبَادَةٌ»  

[Machine] "Omar proposed to her, and by Allah, no one can match what I have matched her with. So Ali married her, and then Omar went to the Muhajireen and said, 'Will you not congratulate me?' They asked, 'Who, O Amir al-Mu'minin?' He replied, 'With Umm Kulthum bint Ali, the daughter of Fatimah, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Every relationship and alliance will be severed on the Day of Judgment, except for what is from me and my lineage. So I wanted there to be a relationship and alliance between me and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ."  

عُمَرُ أَنْكِحْنِيهَا فَوَاللَّهِ مَا مِنَ النَّاسِ أَحَدٌ يَرْصُدُ مِنْ أَمْرِهَا مَا أَرْصُدُهُ فَأَنْكَحَهُ عَلِيٌّ فَأَتَى عُمَرُ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ فَقَالَ أَلَا تُهَنُّونَنِي؟ فَقَالُوا بِمَنْ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ؟ فَقَالَ بِأُمِّ كُلْثُومِ بِنْتِ عَلِيٍّ وَابْنَةِ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «كُلُّ نَسَبٍ وَسَبَبٍ يَنْقَطِعُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِلَّا مَا كَانَ مِنْ سَبَبِي وَنَسَبِي فَأَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَسَبٌ وَسَبَبٌ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If you appoint Abu Bakr as a leader, he will be ascetic in worldly affairs, desiring the Hereafter, and he will have physical weakness. And if you appoint Umar, he will be strong and trustworthy, unafraid of blaming in Allah's cause. And if you appoint Ali, he will guide and lead you upon a straight path."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنْ وَلَّيْتُمُوهَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَزَاهِدٌ فِي الدُّنْيَا رَاغِبٌ فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَفِي جِسْمِهِ ضَعْفٌ وَإِنْ وَلَّيْتُمُوهَا عُمَرُ فَقِوِيُّ أَمِينٌ لَا يَخَافُ فِي اللَّهِ لَوْمَةَ لَائِمٍ وَإِنْ وَلَّيْتُمُوهَا عَلِيًّا فَهَادٍ مُهْتَدٍ يُقِيمُكُمْ عَلَى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ»  

[Machine] To the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I say: "Indeed, the Ummah will betray you after me, while you live according to my path and are killed upon my Sunnah. Whoever loves you, loves me, and whoever hates you, hates me. Indeed, this (beard) will be dyed with (henna) from this (head)." This is from the book "Sahih."  

لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ الْأُمَّةَ سَتَغْدِرُ بِكَ بَعْدِي وَأَنْتَ تَعِيشُ عَلَى مِلَّتِي وَتُقْتَلُ عَلَى سُنَّتِي مَنْ أَحَبَّكَ أَحَبَّنِي وَمَنْ أَبْغَضَكَ أَبْغَضَنِي وَإِنَّ هَذِهِ سَتُخَضَّبُ مِنْ هَذَا» يَعْنِي لِحْيَتَهُ مِنْ رَأْسِهِ «صَحِيحٌ» صحيح
