[Machine] Abu Talib had three sons: Aqeel, Ja'far, and Ali. Each one of them was ten years older than his companion in loyalty.  

«وَلَدَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ عَقِيلًا وَجَعْفَرًا وَعَلِيًّا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ أَسَنُّ مِنْ صَاحِبِهِ بِعَشْرِ سِنِينَ عَلَى الْوَلَاءِ»  

[Machine] Aqeel ibn Abi Talib came to Kufa, Basra, and Sham, and he died during the caliphate of Muawiyah.  

«أَتَى عَقِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ الْكُوفَةَ وَالْبَصْرَةَ وَالشَّامَ وَمَاتَ فِي خِلَافَةِ مُعَاوِيَةَ»  

[Machine] That the Quraysh faced severe crises and Abu Talib had many dependents. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to his uncle Abbas, who belonged to the lesser branch of the Hashemite clan, "O Abu al-Fadl, your brother Abu Talib has many dependents and the people are suffering from what you see from this crisis. So come with me to him and we will relieve him of some of his dependents. You take one of his sons and I will take one, and we will take care of them on his behalf." Abbas agreed, so they went until they reached Abu Talib and said to him, "We want to relieve you of some of your dependents so that the people may see what they are going through." Abu Talib replied, "If you leave me Aqeel, then do as you please." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ took Ali and held him close to himself, and Abbas took Ja'far and held him close to himself. Ali remained with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until Allah made him a prophet and he followed him and believed in him. Abbas took Ja'far and Ja'far remained with Abbas until he embraced Islam and became independent.  

أَنَّ قُرَيْشًا أَصَابَتْهُمْ أَزِمَّةٌ شَدِيدَةٌ وَكَانَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ فِي عِيَالٍ كَثِيرٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِعَمِّهِ الْعَبَّاسِ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَيْسَرِ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ يَا أَبَا الْفَضْلِ «إِنَّ أَخَاكَ أَبَا طَالِبٍ كَثِيرُ الْعِيَالِ وَقَدْ أَصَابَ النَّاسَ مَا تَرَى مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأَزْمَةِ فَانْطَلَقَ بِنَا إِلَيْهِ نُخَفِّفُ عَنْهُ مِنْ عِيَالِهِ آخِذٌ مِنْ بَنِيهِ رَجُلًا وَتَأْخُذُ أَنْتَ رَجُلًا فَنَكْفُلُهُمَا عَنْهُ» فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ نَعَمْ فَانْطَلَقَا حَتَّى أَتَيَا أَبَا طَالِبٍ فَقَالَا إِنَّا نُرِيدُ أَنْ نُخَفِّفَ عَنْكَ مِنْ عِيَالِكَ حَتَّى تَنْكَشِفَ عَنِ النَّاسِ مَا هُمْ فِيهِ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا أَبُو طَالِبٍ إِذَا تَرَكْتُمَا لِي عَقِيلًا فَاصْنَعَا مَا شِئْتُمَا فَأَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلِيًّا فَضَمَّهُ إِلَيْهِ وَأَخَذَ الْعَبَّاسُ جَعْفَرًا فَضَمَّهُ إِلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ عَلِيٌّ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى بَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ نَبِيًّا فَاتَّبَعَهُ وَصَدَّقَهُ وَأَخَذَ الْعَبَّاسُ جَعْفَرًا وَلَمْ يَزَلْ جَعْفَرٌ مَعَ الْعَبَّاسِ حَتَّى أَسْلَمَ وَاسْتَغْنَى عَنْهُ  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Aqil ibn Abi Talib, 'O Abu Yazid, Indeed, I love you with two loves: a love for your kinship with me and a love for the knowledge I had of the love of my uncle for you.' Adh-Dhahabi remained silent about it in his summary."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لِعَقِيلِ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ يَا أَبَا يَزِيدَ «إِنِّي أُحِبُّكَ حُبَّيْنِ حُبًّا لِقَرَابَتِكَ مِنِّي وَحُبًّا لَمَّا كُنْتُ أَعْلَمُ مِنْ حُبِّ عَمِّي إِيَّاكَ» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to say to Ali, "Verily, I love you, O Ali, with two kinds of love: love for you and love for the love of my father, Abu Talib. Beware of that." This statement is found in the hadith.  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِعَقِيلٍ «إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّكَ يَا عَقِيلُ حُبَّيْنِ حُبًّا لَكَ وَحُبًّا لِحُبِّ أَبِي طَالِبٍ إِيَّاكَ» بَيَانُ هَذَيْنِ الْحَدِيثَيْنِ فِي الْحَدِيثِ الَّذِي  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out of a house with his uncles Abbas, Hamza, Ali, Ja'far, and Uqail. They were working in a land. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to his uncles, "Choose from among them." One of them said, "I choose Ja'far," and the other said, "I choose Ali." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "You both have made a good choice, so I choose Ali."  

أَشْرَفَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ بَيْتٍ وَمَعَهُ عَمَّاهُ الْعَبَّاسُ وَحَمْزَةُ وَعَلِيٌّ وَجَعْفَرٌ وَعُقَيْلٌ هُمْ فِي أَرْضٍ يَعْمَلُونَ فِيهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِعَمَّيْهِ «اخْتَارَا مِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ؟» فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا اخْتَرْتُ جَعْفَرًا وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ اخْتَرْتُ عَلِيًّا فَقَالَ «خَيَّرْتُكُمَا فَاخْتَرْتُمَا فَاخْتَارَ اللَّهُ لِي عَلِيًّا»  

[Machine] Talha is a small sapling that grew due to the intensity of the heat. Because of the scorching heat of the summer, he started looking for shade and walking in it. So we approached him and Abu Talib said, "Your cousins claim that you harm them in their gatherings and councils, so refrain from that." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ lifted his eyes to the sky and said, "What do you see from this sun?" They replied, "Yes." He said, "I am not able to leave that from you, so that you may be occupied with it." Abu Talib said, "We have never lied about my nephew before, so go back."  

طَلْحَةُ نَبْتٌ صَغِيرَةٌ فَجَاءَ فِي الظَّهْرِ مِنْ شِدَّةِ الْحَرِّ فَجَعَلَ يَطْلُبُ الْفَيْءَ يَمْشِي فِيهِ مِنْ شِدَّةِ حَرِّ الرَّمْضَاءِ فَأَتَيْنَاهُمْ فَقَالَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ إِنَّ بَنِي عَمِّكَ زَعَمُوا أَنَّكَ تُؤْذِيهِمْ فِي نَادِيهِمْ وَفِي مَجْلِسِهِمْ فَانْتَهِ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَحَلَّقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِبَصَرِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَقَالَ «مَا تَرَوْنَ هَذِهِ الشَّمْسَ؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ «مَا أَنَا بِأَقْدَرَ عَلَى أَنْ أَدَعَ ذَلِكَ مِنْكُمْ عَلَى أَنْ تُشْغَلُوا مِنْهَا شُغْلَةً» فَقَالَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ مَا كَذَّبْنَا ابْنَ أَخِي قَطُّ فَارْجِعُوا  

[Machine] Rather say: "May Allah bless you and bless upon you."  

بَلْ قُولُوا بَارَكَ اللَّهُ لَكَ وَبَارَكَ عَلَيْكَ
