'Ali said to me: I am sending you on the same mission as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me that I should not leave a high grave without leveling it and an image without obliterating it.
لِي أَبْعَثُكَ عَلَى مَا بَعَثَنِي عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ لاَ أَدَعَ قَبْرًا مُشْرِفًا إِلاَّ سَوَّيْتُهُ وَلاَ تِمْثَالاً إِلاَّ طَمَسْتُهُ
ʿAli ؓ said to me: I shall send you on the same mission as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me: do not leave any image without erasing it or any built-up grave without levelling it.
لِي عَلِيٌّ أَبْعَثُكَ عَلَى مَا بَعَثَنِي عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ أَنْ لَا تَدَعَ تِمْثَالًا إِلا طَمَسْتَهُ وَلا قَبْرًا مُشْرِفًا إِلا سَوَّيْتَهُ
ʿAli ؓ said to me - and ‘Abdur-Rahman said: ʿAli ؓ said to Abul-Hayyaj: I am sending you on the same mission as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me: do not leave any raised grave without levelling it or any image without erasing it.
لِأَبِي الْهَيَّاجِ أَبْعَثُكَ عَلَى مَا بَعَثَنِي عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ لَا تَدَعَ قَبْرًا مُشْرِفًا إِلا سَوَّيْتَهُ وَلا تِمْثَالًا إِلا طَمَسْتَهُ
ʿAli ؓ said to me: I shall send you on the same mission as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me: do not leave any image without erasing it or any built-up grave without levelling it. (Using translation from Aḥmad 741)
