" عَنْ أَبِى إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ: قِيلَ لِقُثَم: كَيْفَ وَرِثَ عَلِىٌّ النَّبِىَّ ﷺ دُونَكُمْ؟ قَالَ: إِنَّهُ كَانَ أَوَّلَنَا لُحُوقًا، وَأَشَدَّنَا به لُزُوقًا".
[Machine] I asked Qutham ibn al-Abbas, "How did Ali inherit the Messenger of Allah ﷺ instead of you?" He said, "Because he was the foremost among us in knowledge and the most intense among us in dedication."
سَأَلْتُ قُثَمَ بْنَ الْعَبَّاسِ كَيْفَ وَرِثَ عَلِيٌّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ دُونَكُمْ؟ قَالَ «لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ أَوَّلَنَا بِهِ لُحُوقًا وَأَشَدَّنَا بِهِ لُزُوقًا»
[Machine] It was said to Quthamah ibn al-Abbas, "How did Ali inherit the Messenger of Allah ﷺ instead of al-Abbas?" He replied, "Because he was the foremost among us in knowledge and the most intense among us in taste."
قِيلَ لِقُثَمَ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ كَيْفَ وَرِثَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَلِيٌّ دُونَ الْعَبَّاسِ؟ قَالَ «لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ أَوَّلَنَا بِهِ لُحُوقًا وَأَشَدَّنَا بِهِ لُزُوقًا»
[Machine] Qutham ibn al-Abbas was asked, "How did Ali inherit from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ before you?" He said, "Indeed, he was the first among us to grasp knowledge and the most severe of us in thirst for it."
قِيلَ لِقُثَمَ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ كَيْفَ وَرِثَ عَلِيٌّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ دُونَكُمْ؟ قَالَ «إِنَّهُ كَانَ أَوَّلَنَا بِهِ لُحُوقًا وَأَشَدَّنَا بِهِ لُزُوقًا»
