[Machine] Uthman came to the Prophet ﷺ with a thousand dinars when he prepared the army of Al-Usrah. Uthman emptied it in the Prophet's chamber. The Prophet ﷺ kept flipping the coins and saying, "Uthman's actions after this day will not harm him." He repeated this several times.

جَاءَ عُثْمَانُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِأَلْفِ دِينَارٍ حِينَ جَهَّزَ جَيْشَ الْعُسْرَةِ فَفَرَّغَهَا عُثْمَانُ فِي حِجْرِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُقَلِّبُهَا وَيَقُولُ «مَا ضَرَّ عُثْمَانُ مَا عَمِلَ بَعْدَ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ» قَالَهَا مِرَارًا

[Machine] "I saw the Prophet ﷺ in a dream last night, and he said, 'O Uthman, break your fast with us.' So Uthman woke up fasting and was martyred on that day."

إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي الْمَنَامِ اللَّيْلَةَ فَقَالَ «يَا عُثْمَانُ أَفْطِرْ عِنْدَنَا» فَأَصْبَحَ عُثْمَانُ صَائِمًا فَقُتِلَ مِنْ يَوْمِهِ

[Machine] I was sitting with the Prophet ﷺ when Uthman ibn Affan approached. When he neared, the Prophet said, "O Uthman, you will be killed while reciting Surah Al-Baqarah, and your blood will spill on the verse, 'And Allah is sufficient for you against them. And He is the Hearing, the Knowing.'" (Quran 2:137). And on the Day of Resurrection, you will be raised as a leader over every oppressor. The people of the East and the West will envy you, and you will intercede for the number of Rabia and Mudar.

كُنْتُ قَاعِدًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِذْ أَقْبَلَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ فَلَمَّا دَنَا مِنْهُ قَالَ يَا عُثْمَانُ تُقْتَلُ وَأَنْتَ تَقْرَأُ سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ فَتَقَعُ مِنْ دَمِكَ عَلَى {فَسَيَكْفِيكَهُمُ اللَّهُ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ} [البقرة 137] وَتُبْعَثُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَمِيرًا عَلَى كُلِّ مَخْذُولٍ يَغْبِطُكَ أَهْلُ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ وَتَشْفَعُ فِي عَدَدِ رَبِيعَةَ وَمُضَرَ

[Machine] "I witnessed Ali on the Day of the Camel saying, 'O Allah, I declare my innocence to You from the blood of Uthman. My mind went astray on the day Uthman was killed, and I condemned myself. They wanted me to pledge allegiance, but I said, 'I swear by Allah, I feel ashamed before Allah to pledge allegiance to people who have killed a man.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, 'Do you not feel ashamed before the angels from whom you feel ashamed?' And I swear by Allah, I feel ashamed before Allah to pledge allegiance while Uthman, a murdered man, lies on the ground without being buried yet.' So they left me alone. When Uthman was buried and people came back to me, they asked me for allegiance. I said, 'O Allah, I am apprehensive about what I am about to do.' Then determination came, and I pledged allegiance. They said, 'O Amir al-Mu'minin, it was as if my heart had been split open.' I said, 'O Allah, take from me for Uthman until You are pleased.'"

[Machine] "On the day of Al-Jamal (Battle of the Camel), I went out to see the corpses. Ali ibn Abi Talib, Al-Hasan ibn Ali, Ammar ibn Yasir, Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr, and Zaid ibn Suhana were walking amongst the corpses. Al-Hasan ibn Ali noticed a dead body with his face covered. He turned it over and screamed, then said, 'Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.' Quraish rejoiced and Abu Bakr's father asked him, 'Who is it, my son?' He replied, 'It is Muhammad ibn Talha ibn Ubaydullah.' His father said, 'Indeed, by Allah, he was a righteous young man, then he became sad and sorrowful.' Al-Hasan said to him, 'O father, I used to dissuade you from going on this journey, but so-and-so and so-and-so convinced you against my advice.' He replied, 'That is true, my son, and if I could have chosen, I would have preferred to die twenty years before this.' Muhammad ibn Hattab said, 'I stood up and said, O Amir al-Mu'minin (Commander of the Faithful), we are coming to Medina, and the people are asking us about Uthman, what should we say about him?' Ali ibn Abi Talib said to Ammar ibn Yasir and Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr, 'You both speak.' They spoke and Ali ibn Abi Talib said, 'O Ammar and Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr, you both claim that Uthman seized power and mismanaged the caliphate, and by Allah, you have also done wrong and will be held accountable for it. You will present yourselves before a fair judge who will pass judgment between you.' Then he said to Muhammad ibn Hattab, 'When you arrive in Medina and people ask you about Uthman, say, 'By Allah, he was among those who believed and did righteous deeds, then became cautious and believed, then became cautious and did good deeds. And Allah loves those who do good. So let the believers put their trust in Allah.'"

However, we saw it being handed over to Abu Bakr, who established and maintained it. Then it was handed over to Umar, who also established and maintained it. Then time began to take its toll."

[Machine] "That Umm Habibah bint Abi Sufyan, the wife of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , sent a message to Abdullah ibn Abi Rabiah, the brother of Ayash ibn Abi Rabiah, informing him of the killing of Uthman. She sent him the shirt in which he was killed, and his clothes were stained with his blood. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ received the news, he went out to the people, ascended the pulpit, informed them of his killing, and spread his shirt over the pulpit. He wept, and the people wept with him. He began saying, 'A matter has come to me that brings distress to the people, brings tears to the eyes, and brings humility to life. It brings tears to the noble noses. The leader of the believers has suffered this calamity, and this calamity is like the breaking of mountains. It has caused a commotion among the people of Medina, a group of whom are murderers, and others who have abandoned him. I will mourn for Abu Amr with every lamentation and eulogy known to me, with tears flowing down my cheeks. I will not sleep until these people are arrested and the guilty ones are brought to justice.' He further said, 'I am not settled wherever I reside in a town while you are killed,' He then proceeded with those who were with him. When he approached Makkah, he fell from his riding animal and died."

[Machine] Fatimah, the daughter of Asad son of Hashim, was the first Hashemite born from Hashim's family. She held a high position among the people during the time of the Prophet ﷺ. She passed away during the lifetime of the Prophet ﷺ, and he prayed for her. Her name was Ali, Asad, and because of that, the poem [Al-Bahr Ar-Rajz] says, "I am the one whom my mother called Haydar."

[Machine] I heard Amir al-Mu'minin, Ali ibn Abi Talib, saying that when Fatimah bint Asad ibn Hashim died, the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, shrouded her in his shirt, prayed upon her, and made seventy takbirat over her. He entered her grave and made his space in the grave seem as though it was spacious and level with her. He came out of her grave with his eyes shedding tears and his cheeks wet. When he returned, Umar ibn al-Khattab said, "O Messenger of Allah, I saw you do something for this woman that you did not do for anyone else." He said, "O Umar, this woman was my mother who gave birth to me. Abu Talib used to arrange banquets and invite people to his gatherings, and we would gather around his food. This woman would prefer me over everyone else and would give me a bigger portion. So, I reciprocate her favor. Indeed, Jibril, peace be upon him, informed me on behalf of my Lord, the Exalted and Mighty, that she is among the people of Paradise. And Jibril, peace be upon him, also informed me that Allah Almighty has commanded seventy thousand angels to pray upon her."

[Machine] Muawiya said to Saad bin Abi Waqqas, "What prevents you from insulting Ibn Abi Talib?" Saad replied, "I do not insult what I mentioned three times, which the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said. It is more beloved to me than the red camels." Muawiya asked, "What are they, O Abu Ishaq?" Saad replied, "I do not insult him what I mentioned when the revelation came down upon him, and he took Ali and his two sons and Fatimah and hid them under his garment, then said, 'O Lord, these are the people of my household.' And I do not insult him what I mentioned when he left me behind in the Battle of Tabuk, which the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, led. Ali said to him, 'You left me with the children and women.' He replied, 'Do you not like to be to me like Aaron was to Moses, except that there is no prophethood after me?' And I do not insult him what I mentioned on the day of Khaybar, when the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, 'I will give this banner to a man who loves Allah and His Messenger, and whom Allah will grant victory through his hands.' So, we rushed towards the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, and he asked, 'Where is Ali?' They told him that he had sore eyes. He said, 'Call him.' When Ali came, the Prophet spat in his face and then gave him the banner. Allah granted him victory. I swear by Allah, Muawiya did not mention anything correctly until he left the city."

[Machine] "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ returned from the Farewell Pilgrimage and camped at Ghadir Khumm, he ordered for a pulpit to be set up. Then he said, 'It seems that I have been called, and I have responded. I have left among you two weighty things: the Book of Allah, the Almighty and my progeny. Look carefully at how you will treat them after me, for they will never separate until they meet me at the Pool.' The narration is abbreviated by Al-Dhahabi."

[Machine] "He (Zaid ibn Arqam) heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ camped between Makkah and Madinah near five planted palm trees on the day when the bones are disintegrated. The people swept the area under the trees, then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ offered the evening prayer, stood up to deliver a sermon, praised Allah, glorified Him, and delivered a sermon. He said, 'Whatever Allah willed I uttered, and he continued, 'O people! I am leaving behind two things, and you will never go astray as long as you hold fast to them: the Book of Allah and my family, the people of my household.' Muhammad ibn Salamah ibn Kuhayl narrated this, and As-Sa'di further explained it."

I fought along with ʿAlī to Yemen and I sensed estrangement from him. Then I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and mentioned ʿAlī and talked down about him. I then saw the ˹color˺ on the face of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ change and he said, "O Buraydah, am I not more prefered to the believers than themselves?" I said, "Yes O Messenger of Allah." He then said, "For whomever I am his mawlá (leader), then ʿAlī is his mawlá." and he mentioned the ḥadīth.

غَزَوْتُ مَعَ عَلِيٍّ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ فَرَأَيْتُ مِنْهُ جَفْوَةً فَقَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ عَلِيًّا فَتَنَقَّصْتُهُ فَرَأَيْتُ وَجْهَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَتَغَيَّرُ فَقَالَ «يَا بُرَيْدَةُ أَلَسْتُ أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ؟» قُلْتُ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ» وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ

that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ dispatched an army and he put 'Ali bin Abi Talib in charge of it. He left on the expedition and he entered upon a female slave. So four of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ scolded him, and they made a pact saying: "[If] we meet the Messenger of Allah ﷺ we will inform him of what 'Ali did." When the Muslims returned from the journey, they would begin with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and give him Salam, then they would go to their homes. So when the expedition arrived, they gave Salam to the Prophet ﷺ, and one of the four stood saying: "O Messenger of Allah! Do you see that 'Ali bin Abi Talib did such and such." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned away from him. Then the second one stood and said as he said, and he turned away from him. Then the third stood before him, and said as he said, and he turned away from him. Then the fourth stood and said as they had said. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ faced him, and the anger was visible on his face, he said: "What do you want from 'Ali?! What do you want from 'Ali?! What do you want from 'Ali?! Indeed 'Ali is from me, and I am from him, and he is the ally of every believer after me." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3712)

بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ سَرِيَّةً وَاسْتَعْمَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَمَضَى عَلِيٌّ فِي السَّرِيَّةِ فَأَصَابَ جَارِيَةً فَأَنْكَرُوا ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ فَتَعَاقَدَ أَرْبَعَةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا لَقِينَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَأَخْبَرْنَاهُ بِمَا صَنَعَ عَلِيٌّ قَالَ عِمْرَانُ وَكَانَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ إِذَا قَدِمُوا مِنْ سَفَرٍ بَدَءُوا بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَنَظَرُوا إِلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمُوا عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفُوا إِلَى رِحَالِهِمْ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَتِ السَّرِيَّةُ سَلَّمُوا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَامَ أَحَدُ الْأَرْبَعَةِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ عَلِيًّا صَنَعَ كَذَا وَكَذَا؟ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ قَامَ الثَّانِي فَقَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ قَامَ الثَّالِثُ فَقَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ قَامَ الرَّابِعُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ عَلِيًّا صَنَعَ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَالْغَضَبُ فِي وَجْهِهِ فَقَالَ «مَا تُرِيدُونَ مِنْ عَلِيٍّ إِنَّ عَلِيًّا مِنِّي وَأَنَا مِنْهُ وَوَلِيُّ كُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ»

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

عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

[Machine] "Ali converted to Islam when he was either ten years old or sixteen years old. This chain of narration is more reliable than the previous one, and I have mentioned it because it was overlooked by Al-Dhahabi in his summarization."

«أَسْلَمَ عَلِيٌّ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَشْرٍ أَوِ ابْنُ سِتَّ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً» هَذَا الْإِسْنَادُ أَوْلَى مِنَ الْأَوَّلِ وَإِنَّمَا قَدَّمْتُ ذَلِكَ لِأَنِّي عَلَوْتُ فِيهِ سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

[Machine] Ali has four qualities that no one else possesses. He is the first Arab and non-Arab to pray with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He is the one whose flag was with him in every battle, and the one who showed patience with him on the day of Mihraj. He is the one who washed him and buried him in his grave. In it, Zakaria son of Yahya al-Waqar testifies against him, and he is accused.

لِعَلِيٍّ أَرْبَعُ خِصَالٍ لَيْسَتْ لِأَحَدٍ هُوَ أَوَّلُ عَرَبِيٍّ وَأَعْجَمِيٍّ صَلَّى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ الَّذِي كَانَ لِوَاؤُهُ مَعَهُ فِي كُلِّ زَحْفٍ وَالَّذِي صَبَرَ مَعَهُ يَوْمَ الْمِهْرَاسِ وَهُوَ الَّذِي غَسَّلَهُ وَأَدْخَلَهُ قَبْرَهُ فيه زكريا بن يحيى الوقار وهو متهم

[Machine] "On the day of Badr, the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, entrusted the flag to Ali, who was twenty years old."

«أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ دَفَعَ الرَّايَةَ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً»

[Machine] "I am Abdullah, the slave of Allah, and the brother of His Messenger. I am the greatest Siddiq (truthful one). No one can say this after me except as a liar. I prayed before the people for seven years before anyone of this Ummah worshiped Allah." This is a false Hadith, so reflect upon it.

«إِنِّي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَأَخُو رَسُولِهِ وَأَنَا الصِّدِّيقُ الْأَكْبَرُ لَا يَقُولُهَا بَعْدِي إِلَّا كَاذِبٌ صَلَّيْتُ قَبْلَ النَّاسِ بِسَبْعِ سِنِينَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَعْبُدَهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ» حديث باطل فتدبره

[Machine] I worshipped Allah with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for seven years before anyone from this nation worshipped him. And this is false.

«عَبَدْتُ اللَّهَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَعْبُدَهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ» وهذا باطل

[Machine] Abu Dhar and Nuaim ibn Amr ibn Abu Dhar and I set out together in search of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who was in the valley (of Mecca). Abu Dhar said to him: O Messenger of Allah, we have come to listen to what you say and to respond to your call. Upon hearing this, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, and I am the Messenger of Allah." Abu Dhar and his companion believed in him and I too believed in him. Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was in need of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ so he sent him (to the valley). On that day, the revelation was sent down to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Ali prayed on Tuesday. This is an authentic narration and it has not been narrated by anyone else.

انْطَلَقَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ وَنُعَيْمُ ابْنُ عَمِّ أَبِي ذَرٍّ وَأَنَا مَعَهُمْ نَطْلُبُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ بِالْجَبَلِ مُكْتَتِمٌ فَقَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ يَا مُحَمَّدُ آتَيْنَاكَ نَسْمَعُ مَا تَقُولُ وَإِلَى مَا تَدْعُو فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَقُولُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَإِنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ» فَآمَنَ بِهِ أَبُو ذَرٍّ وَصَاحِبُهُ وَآمَنْتُ بِهِ وَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ فِي حَاجَةٍ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَرْسَلَهُ فِيهَا وَأُوحِيَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الِاثْنَيْنِ وَصَلَّى عَلِيٌّ يَوْمَ الثُّلَاثَاءِ «صَحِيحُ الْإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ» صحيح

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ prophesied on Monday and Ali converted to Islam on Tuesday. Az-Zahabi did not mention it in his summary.

«نُبِّئَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَوْمَ الِاثْنَيْنِ وَأَسْلَمَ عَلِيٌّ يَوْمَ الثُّلَاثَاءِ» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

[Machine] "Ali was killed on Friday, the seventeenth night of the past month of Ramadan in the year forty (AH). His caliphate lasted five years except for three months. He was killed by Abdurrahman ibn Muljam al-Muradi on the same day Ibn Thalathin (Uthman) was killed, at the age of sixty-three or sixty-four."

«قُتِلَ عَلِيٌّ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ لِسَبْعَ عَشْرَةَ لَيْلَةً خَلَتْ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ سَنَةَ أَرْبَعِينَ وَكَانَتْ خِلَافَتُهُ خَمْسَ سِنِينَ إِلَّا ثَلَاثَةَ أَشْهُرٍ قَتَلَهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مُلْجَمٍ الْمُرَادِيُّ وَهُوَ يَوْمَ قُتِلَ ابْنُ ثَلَاثٍ وَسِتِّينَ سَنَةً أَوْ أَرْبَعٍ وَسِتِّينَ» حذفه الذهبي من التلخيص لضعفه

[Machine] "I heard Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah say, 'Ali ibn Abi Talib was my guardian for five years. He was martyred in the year forty of the Hijra of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at the age of sixty-three. He was killed on a Friday, the twenty-first day of Ramadan, and he passed away on a Sunday. He was buried in Kufa.'" (This part has been omitted by Al-Dhahabi in his summary due to its weakness)

[Machine] He returned with complaints that were bothering him. I said to him, "We were concerned for you, O Amir al-Mu'minin, regarding your complaint." He replied, "But I swear by Allah, I was not concerned for myself because I heard the truthful and trusted Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'You will be struck with a blow here and a blow there,' pointing to his temples, 'and blood will flow from them until it stains your beard, and the one who causes it will be more miserable than the barren she-camel of Thamud.'"

أَنَّهُ عَادَ عَلِيًّا فِي شَكْوَى لَهُ أَشْكَاهَا قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ لَقَدْ تَخَوَّفْنَا عَلَيْكَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فِي شَكْوَاكَ هَذِهِ فَقَالَ لَكِنِّي وَاللَّهِ مَا تَخَوَّفْتُ عَلَى نَفْسِي مِنْهُ لِأَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ الصَّادِقَ الْمَصْدُوقَ يَقُولُ «إِنَّكَ سَتُضْرَبُ ضَرْبَةً هَا هُنَا وَضَرْبَةً هَا هُنَا وَأَشَارَ إِلَى صُدْغَيْهِ فَيَسِيلُ دَمُهَا حَتَّى تَخْتَضِبَ لِحْيَتُكَ وَيَكُونُ صَاحِبُهَا أَشْقَاهَا كَمَا كَانَ عَاقِرُ النَّاقَةِ أَشْقَى ثَمُودَ»

[Machine] "I arrived in Damascus wanting to conquer, so I went to greet Abd al-Malik to convert to Islam. I found him in a dome, on a bed near the Qa'im, with two mats underneath. I greeted him and then I sat down. He said to me, 'O son of Shihab, do you know what happened in the morning at the Al-Aqsa Mosque where Ali ibn Abi Talib was killed?' I replied, 'Yes.' He then said, 'Come with me.' I stood up from behind the people and followed him behind the dome. He turned his face towards me and leaned towards me and asked, 'What happened?' I replied, 'Not a stone was lifted at the Al-Aqsa Mosque without finding blood underneath it.' He said, 'No one besides me and you knows this, and no one should hear it from you.' So, I did not speak of it until he passed away."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The lifespan of Islam is based on thirty-five or thirty-six years. If they are destroyed, then the way of those who perished remains as a guidance. But if their religion remains, it will last for seventy years." Umar asked, "O Messenger of Allah, by what is left or what has passed?" He replied, "By what is left."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «تَدُورُ رَحَى الْإِسْلَامِ عَلَى خَمْسٍ وَثَلَاثِينَ أَوْ سِتٍّ وَثَلَاثِينَ فَإِنْ يَهْلِكُوا فَسَبِيلُ مَنْ هَلَكَ وَإِنْ بَقِيَ لَهُمْ دِينُهُمْ فَسَبْعِينَ عَامًا» قَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ بِمَا بَقِيَ أَوْ بِمَا مَضَى؟ قَالَ «بِمَا بَقِيَ»

[Machine] Uthman was buried and then he was pledged allegiance on the pulpit of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ openly. Talhah was the first to pledge allegiance to him, he said, "This allegiance will not be broken."

أَنْ دُفِنَ عُثْمَانُ ثُمَّ بُويِعَ عَلَى مِنْبَرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ظَاهِرًا وَكَانَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ بَايَعَهُ طَلْحَةُ فَقَالَ هَذِهِ بَيْعَةُ تُنْكَثُ

[Machine] When Ali ibn Abi Talib was given the oath of allegiance on the pulpit of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , Khuzaymah ibn Thabit, who was standing in front of the pulpit, said, "When we pledged allegiance to Ali, we considered Abu Hasan sufficient for us to protect us from turmoil. We found him to be the most deserving of the people with the people, as he was the most knowledgeable about the Book and the traditions. Indeed, Quraysh does not suffer from any harm when it follows its own path, and in Ali, there is all the good that is among them and none of the bad." Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in summary.

لَمَّا بُويِعَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَلَى مِنْبَرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ خُزَيْمَةُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَهُوَ وَاقِفٌ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الْمِنْبَرِ « [البحر الطويل] إِذَا نَحْنُ بَايَعْنَا عَلِيًّا فَحَسْبُنَا أَبُو حَسَنٍ مِمَّا نَخَافُ مِنَ الْفِتَنْ وَجَدْنَاهُ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِالنَّاسِ أَنَّهُ أَطَبُّ قُرَيْشًا بِالْكِتَابِ وَبِالسُّنَنِ وَإِنَّ قُرَيْشًا مَا تَشُقُّ غُبَارَهُ إِذَا مَا جَرَى يَوْمًا عَلَى الضَّمْرِ الْبَدَنْ وَفِيهِ الَّذِي فِيهِمْ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ كُلِّهِ وَمَا فِيهِمْ كُلُّ الَّذِي فِيهِ مِنْ حَسَنْ» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

[Machine] When the Bay'ah (pledge of allegiance) of Ali came to Hudayfah, he said, "I will not pledge allegiance to anyone after him except As'ar or Abtar."

لَمَّا جَاءَتْ بَيْعَةُ عَلِيٍّ إِلَى حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ «لَا أُبَايِعُ بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا أَصْعَرَ أَوْ أَبْتَرَ»

[Machine] "I saw Ali riding on a worn-out camel with a cloak wrapped around him, and he was saying to Hasan and Husain, 'Why do you not yearn for the call of a young girl? By Allah, I have never encountered a situation that required fighting against people or rejecting what was revealed to Muhammad ﷺ.' Al-Dhahabi excluded this narration from his summary due to its weakness."

رَأَيْتُ عَلِيًّا عَلَى رَحْلٍ رَثٍّ بِالرَّبَذَةِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ لِلْحَسَنِ وَالْحُسَيْنِ «مَا لَكُمَا تَحِنَّانِ حَنِينَ الْجَارِيَةِ وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ ضَرَبْتُ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ ظَهْرًا لِبَطْنٍ فَمَا وَجَدْتُ بُدًّا مِنْ قِتَالِ الْقَوْمِ أَوِ الْكُفْرِ بِمَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ» حذفه الذهبي من التلخيص لضعفه

[Machine] "O Abu Abdurrahman, I swear by Allah that I have always wanted to imitate your smile and follow your actions in dealing with people. I distance myself from evil as much as I can. There is a verse from the Book of Allah that has deeply affected my heart. Please tell me your thoughts on it. It is the verse of Allah Almighty that says: 'And if two factions among the believers should fight, then make settlement between the two. But if one of them oppresses the other, then fight against the one that oppresses until it returns to the ordinance of Allah. And if it returns, then make settlement between them in justice and act justly. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly.' (Quran 49:9)

Abdullah replied, "What do you want from me regarding this?" So, I left him and he departed until he was out of sight. Abdullah bin Umar came to us and said, "I have found something within myself concerning this verse. I felt that I should not fight against this rebellious faction, as Allah Almighty commanded." This is a significant narrative narrated from Abdullah bin Umar by a group of prominent Tabi'een. I have presented the hadith of Shu'ayb bin Abi Hamza, narrated by Az-Zuhri, and I have focused on it because it meets the conditions of both Al-Bukhari and Muslim."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me on a military expedition with a group of his companions. I competed with a man from the Ansar in hastening towards the enemy. I mounted my horse and as I approached the enemy, the man raised his voice in takbeer (saying Allahu Akbar, meaning "Allah is the Greatest"). I attacked him and killed him. Later, I realized that he only said takbeer to protect himself, but it did not stop me from killing him. When we returned, I went ahead to the Prophet ﷺ and he asked me, "What did you do today, O Usama?" I replied, "I attacked a man who raised his voice in takbeer, thinking he did so to protect himself." The Prophet ﷺ said, "How can you bear to kill him after he said 'Allahu Akbar'? Did you not separate his heart from his body?" I said, "What he said did not deter me." After that day, the Prophet ﷺ kept repeating to me, "I will not fight against a person who says 'Allahu Akbar' more than anything else he says until I meet him."

بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ فِي أُنَاسٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَاسْتَبَقْنَا أَنَا وَرَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ إِلَى الْعَدُوِّ فَحَمَلْتُ عَلَى رَجُلٍ فَلَمَّا دَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ كَبَّرَ فَطَعَنْتُهُ فَقَتَلْتُهُ وَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّهُ إِنَّمَا فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ لِيُحْرِزَ دَمَهُ فَلَمَّا رَجَعْنَا سَبَقَنِي إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَا فَارِسَ خَيْرٍ مِنْ فَارِسِكُمْ إِنَّا اسْتَلْحَقْنَا رَجُلًا فَسَبَقَنِي إِلَيْهِ فَكَبَّرَ فَلَمْ يَمْنَعْهُ ذَلِكَ أَنْ قَتَلَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «يَا أُسَامَةُ مَا صَنَعْتَ الْيَوْمَ؟» فَقُلْتُ حَمَلْتُ عَلَى رَجُلٍ فَكَبَّرَ فَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّهُ إِنَّمَا فَعَلَ لِيُحْرِزَ دَمَهُ فَقَتَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ «كَيْفَ بَعْدَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ فَهَلَّا شَقَقْتَ عَنْ قَلْبِهِ فَقُلْتُ مَا قَالَ» فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَقُولُ لِي يَوْمَئِذٍ فَلَا أُقَاتِلُ رَجُلًا يَقُولُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ مِمَّا نَهَانِي عَنْهُ حَتَّى أَلْقَاهُ ﷺ

[Machine] "About Al-Dhahabi in summarization."

عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

[Machine] "And a man said to him, 'Indeed, Ali is being neglected by you, while you have turned away from him.' So Saad said, 'By Allah, I have seen a view, and my opinion is that Ali ibn Abi Talib should be given three things. For me to be given one of them is dearer to me than the world and all that is in it.' The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said to him on the Day of Ghadeer Khumm after praising and glorifying Allah, 'Do you not know that I have more authority over the believers?' We said, 'Yes.' He said, 'O Allah, whomever I am their master, Ali is his master. O Allah, be a friend to his friends and an enemy to his enemies.' And he was brought on the day of Khaybar, while his eyes were ailing and he said, 'O Messenger of Allah, indeed my eyes are ailing.' The Prophet placed his spittle into his eyes and prayed for him, and his eyes were healed. Then he was martyred and Khaybar was conquered. The Prophet ﷺ brought out his uncle, Abbas, and others from the mosque and Abbas said to him, 'Are you expelling us while we are your family and your supporters, and you are leaving Ali behind?' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'I am not expelling you and leaving Ali behind, but it is Allah who has expelled you and brought Ali forth.' The ruler remained silent regarding its correction."

وَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ إِنَّ عَلِيًّا يَقَعُ فِيكَ إِنَّكَ تَخَلَّفْتَ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ سَعْدٌ وَاللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لَرَأْيٌ رَأَيْتُهُ وَأَخْطَأَ رَأْيِي إِنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أُعْطِيَ ثَلَاثًا لِأَنْ أَكُونَ أُعْطِيتُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا لَقَدْ قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ غَدِيرٍ خُمٍّ بَعْدَ حَمْدِ اللَّهِ وَالثَّنَاءِ عَلَيْهِ «هَلْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ؟» قُلْنَا نَعَمْ قَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ» وَجِيءَ بِهِ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ وَهُوَ أَرْمَدُ مَا يُبْصِرُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَرْمَدُ فَتَفَلَ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ وَدَعَا لَهُ فَلَمْ يَرْمَدْ حَتَّى قُتِلَ وَفُتِحَ عَلَيْهِ خَيْبَرُ وَأَخْرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَمَّهُ الْعَبَّاسَ وَغَيْرَهُ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْعَبَّاسُ تُخْرِجُنَا وَنَحْنُ عَصَبَتُكَ وَعُمُومَتُكَ وَتُسْكِنُ عَلِيًّا؟ فَقَالَ «مَا أَنَا أَخْرَجْتُكُمْ وَأَسْكَنْتُهُ وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ أَخْرَجَكُمْ وَأَسْكَنَهُ» سكت الحاكم عن تصحيحه

[Machine] "When Uthman was killed and Ali was elected, Abu Musa delivered a sermon while he was in Kufa, advising people against fighting and getting involved in strife. Ali then removed him from Kufa and sent Ammar ibn Yasir and Hasan ibn Ali to him. They also removed him and appointed Qarzah ibn Kaab as the governor. He continued to serve as the governor until Ali arrived from Basra several months later. Ali then removed him from his position upon his arrival. When Ali marched towards Siffin, he appointed Uqbah ibn Amr Abu Mas'ud al-Ansari as his deputy, upon his arrival from Siffin."

Note: The sentence at the end seems to be a separate line unrelated to the rest of the text and is attributed to Hitham ibn Adi, and it is not clear for this sentence to be included in the translation.

«لَمَّا قُتِلَ عُثْمَانُ وَبُويِعَ عَلِيٌّ خَطَبَ أَبُو مُوسَى وَهُوَ عَلَى الْكُوفَةِ فَنَهَى النَّاسَ عَنِ الْقِتَالِ وَالدُّخُولِ فِي الْفِتْنَةِ فَعَزَلَهُ عَلِيٌّ عَنِ الْكُوفَةِ مِنْ ذِي قَارٍ وَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ عَمَّارَ بْنَ يَاسِرٍ وَالْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ فَعَزَلَاهُ وَاسْتَعْمَلَ قَرَظَةَ بْنَ كَعْبٍ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ عَامِلًا حَتَّى قَدِمَ عَلِيٌّ مِنَ الْبَصْرَةِ بَعْدَ أَشْهُرٍ فَعَزَلَهُ حَيْثُ قَدِمَ فَلَمَّا سَارَ إِلَى صِفِّينَ اسْتَخْلَفَ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو أَبَا مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ حَيْثُ قَدِمَ مِنْ صِفِّينَ» الهيثم بن عدي متروك
