[Machine] "Mughira bin Shu'ba used to include Ali in his sermons, and he appointed orators who also included Ali in their sermons. While he was delivering a sermon and praising Ali, Sa'id bin Zaid bin Amr bin Nufayl al-'Adawi, who was sitting next to me, punched me with his hand and said, 'Do you not see what he is saying? Or should I say, these are my witnesses, the nine who are assured of paradise. And if I were to testify about the tenth, I would be truthful. We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Hira, myself, Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, Ali, Talha, Zubayr, Sa'd, and Abdul Rahman bin Awf when the mountain shook.' The Prophet ﷺ then said, 'Hold on to Hira, for you will have nothing but a prophet, a truthful one, or a martyr.'"
كَانَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ يَنَالُ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ مِنْ عَلِيٍّ وَأَقَامَ خُطَبَاءَ يَنَالُونَ مِنْهُ فَبَيْنَا هُوَ يَخْطُبُ وَنَالَ مِنْ عَلِيٍّ وَإِلَى جَنْبِي سَعِيدِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ نُفَيْلٍ الْعَدَوِيِّ قَالَ فَضَرَبَنِي بِيَدِهِ وَقَالَ «أَلَا تَرَى مَا يَقُولُ هَذَا؟ أَوْ قَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ أَشْهَدُ عَلَى التِّسْعَةِ أَنَّهُمْ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَلَوْ حَلَفْتُ عَلَى الْعَاشِرِ لَصَدَقْتُ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِحِرَاءٍ أَنَا وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَعُثْمَانُ وَعَلِيٌّ وَطَلْحَةُ وَالزُّبَيْرُ وَسَعْدٌ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ فَتَزَلْزَلَ الْجَبَلُ» فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «اثْبُتْ حِرَاءُ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا نَبِيٌّ أَوْ صِدِّيقٌ أَوْ شَهِيدٌ»
