Hadith 12021
اُردوEn
عَنْ قَيْسٍ الْخَارِفِيِّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَقُولُ عَلَى هَذَا الْمِنْبَرِ: سَبَقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَصَلَّى أَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، وَثَلَّثَ عُمَرُ، ثُمَّ خَبَطَتْنَا فِتْنَةٌ أَوْ أَصَابَتْنَا فِتْنَةٌ، فَكَانَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ، (وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ: يَعْفُو اللَّهُ عَمَّنْ يَشَاءُ).
Qais Kharfi says: I heard Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) saying on this pulpit: First, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) departed from this world. After him, Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) led the Ummah in prayers. Third came Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). After him, we were overtaken by trials and tribulations, then whatever Allah willed, happened. In another narration it is stated: Allah will forgive whomever He wills.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Sayyiduna Ali radi Allahu anhu is acknowledging the greatness of the first two caliphs of the Muslim Ummah, and it befits the people of truth to remain steadfast upon the path of truth.
