"عن ميمون أبى عبد الله فقال: كنت عندَ زيدِ بن أرقم، فجاء رجلٌ فسأل عن عَلِىٍّ، فقال: كنا مع رسول الله ﷺ فِى سفرٍ بين مكة والمدينة فنزلنا مكانا يقال له: غدير خم، فأذن الصلاة جامعة، فاجتمعَ الناسُ، فحَمِدَ الله وأثنى عليه، ثم قال: يأيها الناسُ: ألست أولى بكل مُؤْمِنٍ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ؟ ! قلنا: بَلَى يا رسولَ الله! نحنُ نَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَولى بِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ مِنْ نَفْسِه. قال: فإنى مَنْ كُنتُ مَوْلَاهُ وأخَذَ بيد عَلِىٍّ ولا أعلمه إلا قال: اللهم وال من وَلَاهُ وعادِ مَنْ عَادَاه".

"We returned with the Messenger of Allah from his Hajj that he had performed, and we stopped at some point on the road. He commanded that prayer should be performed in congregation, then he took the hand of 'Ali and said: 'Am I not dearer to the believers than their own selves?' They said: 'Yes indeed.' He said: 'Am I not dearer to every believer than his own self?' They said: 'Yes indeed.' He said: 'This man is the friend of those whose master I am.' O Allah, take as friends those who take him as a friend, and take as enemies those who take him as an enemy.'"

ابن ماجة:١١٦حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ أَخَبَرَنِي حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ جُدْعَانَ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ

أَقْبَلْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي حَجَّتِهِ الَّتِي حَجَّ فَنَزَلَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ فَأَمَرَ الصَّلاَةَ جَامِعَةً فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِ عَلِيٍّ فَقَالَ أَلَسْتُ أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ أَلَسْتُ أَوْلَى بِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ فَهَذَا وَلِيُّ مَنْ أَنَا مَوْلاَهُ اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالاَهُ اللَّهُمَّ عَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ

ahmad:18479ʿAffān > Ḥammād b. Salamah > ʿAlī b. Zayd > ʿAdī b. Thābit > al-Barāʾ b. ʿĀzib

[AI] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey, and we stopped at Ghadeer Khumm. Then the call for prayer was made, announcing the congregational prayer. A place under two trees was cleared for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to pray Dhuhr. He took the hand of Ali and said, "Do you not know that I have more authority over the believers than they have over themselves?" They replied, "Yes, indeed." He said, "Do you not know that I have more authority over every believer than they have over themselves?" They responded, "Yes, indeed." Then, he held Ali's hand and said, "Whoever has me as their master, Ali is also their master. O Allah, be a friend to whoever befriends him and an enemy to whoever fights against him." Umar met him afterward and said, "Congratulations, O son of Abu Talib! You have become the master of every believer, male and female, both in the morning and the evening."

كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ فَنَزَلْنَا بِغَدِيرِ خُمٍّ فَنُودِيَ فِينَا الصَّلَاةُ جَامِعَةٌ وَكُسِحَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ تَحْتَ شَجَرَتَيْنِ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ وَأَخَذَ بِيَدِ عَلِيٍّ فَقَالَ أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَوْلَى بِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِ عَلِيٍّ فَقَالَ مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ قَالَ فَلَقِيَهُ عُمَرُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ هَنِيئًا يَا ابْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أَصْبَحْتَ وَأَمْسَيْتَ مَوْلَى كُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ وَمُؤْمِنَةٍ

ahmad:19325ʿAffān > Abū ʿAwānah > al-Mughīrah > Abū ʿUbayd > Maymūn Abū ʿAbdullāh > Zayd b. Arqam

[AI] I remember when we camped with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a valley called Wadi Khumm. He commanded us to perform the prayer, so we prayed with him using a sand mound as a place of prostration. Then he delivered a sermon to us while being shaded by a garment on a samurah tree from the sun. He asked us, "Do you not know, and do you not bear witness, that I am closer to every believer than his own self?" We replied, "Yes, indeed." He said, "Whoever I am his master, then Ali is his master. O Allah, be a friend to those who befriend him and an enemy to those who oppose him."

أحمد:١٩٣٢٥حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ مَيْمُونٍ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ قَالَ زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْقَمَ وَأَنَا

أَسْمَعُ نَزَلْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِوَادٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ وَادِي خُمٍّ فَأَمَرَ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَصَلَّاهَا بِهَجِيرٍ قَالَ فَخَطَبَنَا وَظُلِّلَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِثَوْبٍ عَلَى شَجَرَةِ سَمُرَةٍ مِنَ الشَّمْسِ فَقَالَ أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَوْ أَلَسْتُمْ تَشْهَدُونَ أَنِّي أَوْلَى بِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ فَمَنْكُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَإِنَّ عَلِيًّا مَوْلَاهُ اللهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ

Ali as the mawla at Wadi Khumm

bazzar:3698Ibrāhīm b. Hāniʾ > ʿAffān > Abū ʿAwānah > al-Mughīrah > Abū ʿUbaydah > Maymūn Abū ʿAbdullāh > Zayd b. Arqam

[AI] We stopped with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at a valley called Wadi Khumm. The call to prayer was given, and he prayed it at midday; then he addressed us. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was shaded from the sun by a cloth over a samurah tree, and he said: "Do you not know, or do you bear witness, that I have more right over every believer than he has over himself?" They said, "Yes." He said: "So whoever I am his mawla, Ali is his mawla. O Allah ﷻ, be loyal to whoever is loyal to him, and be hostile to whoever is hostile to him."

This hadith: we do not know of anyone who narrated it from Mughirah except Abu Awanah.

البزّار:٣٦٩٨حَدَّثنا إبراهيم بن هانيء قَال حَدَّثنا عفان قَال حَدَّثنا أَبُو عَوَانة عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَن أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ عَنْ مَيْمُونٍ أَبِي عَبد اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالَ زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْقَمَ وَأنا أَسْمَعُ

نَزَلْنَا مَعَ رسول الله ﷺ واد يُقَالُ لَهُ وَادِي خُمٍّ، فَأُذِّنَ بِالصَّلاةِ فَصَلاهَا تَهْجِيرًا، ثُمَّ خَطَبَنَا وَظُلِّلَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِثَوْبٍ عَلَى شَجَرَةٍ سَمُرَةٍ مِنَ الشَّمْسِ، فَقَالَ: «أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَوْ تَشْهَدُونَ أَنِّي أَوْلَى بِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ؟» قَالُوا: بَلَى، قَالَ: «فَمَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلاهُ فَإِنَّ عَلِيًّا مَوْلاهُ، اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالاهُ وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ».

وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لا نعلَمُ أحَدًا رَوَاهُ عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ إلاَّ أَبَا عَوَانة.

[AI] I heard that we camped with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a valley called Wadi Khumm. He ordered for the prayer to be performed, so it was performed on rocks. Then he delivered a sermon and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was shaded by a garment hanging on a tree, shielding him from the sun. He said, "Do you not know that I have more authority over the believers than they have over themselves?" They replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Whoever I am his Mawla, then Ali is his Mawla. O Allah, be a friend to his friends and an enemy to his enemies."

nasai-kubra:8415Qutaybah b. Saʿīd > Ibn Abū ʿAdī > ʿAwf > Maymūn Abū ʿAbdullāh

[AI] Zaid bin Arqam stood up when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived and praised Allah and spoke highly of Him. Then he said, "Do you not know that I am closer to every believer than his own self?" They said, "Yes, indeed. We testify that you are closer to every believer than his own self." He said, "Then whoever I am his Mawla (master), Ali is also his Mawla." He took the hand of Ali.

"كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ الله ﷺ في سَفَرٍ فَنَزَلنَا بِغَدِيرِ خُمٍّ، فَنُودِيَ: الصَّلَاةُ جَامِعَةٌ، وَكُسِحَ لِرَسُولِ الله ﷺ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ فَأَخَذَ بِيَد عَلِيٍّ، فَقَالَ: ألَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمونَ أَنِّي أَوْلَى بِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ؟ قَالُوا بَلي ، فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِ عَلِيٍّ، فَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ كنتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ، اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَعادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ. فَلَقِيَهُ عُمَرُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: هَنيئًا لَكَ يَابْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ! أَصْبَحْتَ وَأَمْسَيْتَ مَوْلَي كُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ وَمُؤمنَةٍ".
