حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي صَالِحٍ أَنَّ أَبَا الْوَضِيءِ عَبَّادًا حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ كُنَّا عَامِدِينَ إِلَى الْكُوفَةِ مَعَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَلَمَّا بَلَغْنَا مَسِيرَةَ لَيْلَتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثٍ مِنْ حَرُورَاءَ شَذَّ مِنَّا نَاسٌ كَثِيرٌ فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لِعَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ لَا يَهُولَنَّكُمْ أَمْرُهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ سَيَرْجِعُونَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ قَالَ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَقَالَ إِنَّ خَلِيلِي أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ قَائِدَ هَؤُلَاءِ رَجُلٌ مُخْدَجُ الْيَدِ عَلَى حَلَمَةِ ثَدْيِهِ شَعَرَاتٌ كَأَنَّهُنَّ ذَنَبُ الْيَرْبُوعِ فَالْتَمَسُوهُ فَلَمْ يَجِدُوهُ فَأَتَيْنَاهُ فَقُلْنَا إِنَّا لَمْ نَجِدْهُ فَقَالَ فَالْتَمِسُوهُ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا كَذَبْتُ وَلَا كُذِبْتُ ثَلَاثًا فَقُلْنَا لَمْ نَجِدْهُ فَجَاءَ عَلِيٌّ بِنَفْسِهِ فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ اقْلِبُوا ذَا اقْلِبُوا ذَا حَتَّى جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْكُوفَةِ فَقَالَ هُوَ ذَا قَالَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا يَأْتِيكُمْ أَحَدٌ يُخْبِرُكُمْ مَنْ أَبُوهُ فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَقُولُونَ هَذَا مَالِكٌ هَذَا مَالِكٌ يَقُولُ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ابْنُ مَنْ هُوَ
Abu Wadi’i ‘Abad says: We were traveling towards Kufa in the company of Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). When we had gone two or three nights’ distance beyond Harura, many of our people separated from us. We mentioned this to Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). He said: Do not let this action of theirs worry you; these people will soon return. After that, he narrated the whole hadith. Then Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) praised and glorified Allah and said: My beloved Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed me that the leader of these people will be a man with an incomplete hand, and on his nipple there will be some hair, like the tail of a certain kind of small mouse. Now you people search for him. They did not find any such man among them. We came to him and said: We did not find any such man. He said: Search again. By Allah, neither have I spoken falsely nor was I told anything false. He repeated this three times. We said: We did not find any such man. Then Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) himself came and said: Turn him over and look, turn him over. Until a man from Kufa came and said: Here is that man. Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said Allahu Akbar and then said: No man will be able to tell you who his father is. People began to say: This is Malik, this is Malik. He said: Then tell me, whose son is he?
