tirmidhi:3037Khalāad b. Aslam al-Baghdādī > al-Naḍr b. Shumayl > Isrāʾīl > Thūwayr b. Abū Fākhitah from his father > ʿAlī b. Abū Ṭālib

from his father that 'Ali bin Abi Talib said: "There is no Ayah in the Qur'an more beloved to me than this Ayah: Verily Allah forgives not associating others with Him, but He forgives what is less than that for whomever He wills (4:116)."  

الترمذي:٣٠٣٧حَدَّثَنَا خَلاَّدُ بْنُ أَسْلَمَ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ ثُوَيْرِ بْنِ أَبِي فَاخِتَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ

مَا فِي الْقُرْآنِ آيَةٌ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنْ هَذِهِ الآيَةِ ( إِنَّ اللَّهَ لاَ يَغْفِرُ أَنْ يُشْرَكَ بِهِ وَيَغْفِرُ مَا دُونَ ذَلِكَ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ ) قَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ وَأَبُو فَاخِتَةَ اسْمُهُ سَعِيدُ بْنُ عِلاَقَةَ وَثُوَيْرٌ يُكْنَى أَبَا جَهْمٍ وَهُوَ رَجُلٌ كُوفِيٌّ مِنَ التَّابِعِينَ وَقَدْ سَمِعَ مِنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ وَابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ وَابْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ كَانَ يَغْمِزُهُ قَلِيلاً
