Fulfulah al-Ju'fi states: I heard Sayyiduna Imam al-Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with them both) say: "I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a dream, clinging to the Throne, and I saw Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) holding the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) by the waist; I saw Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) holding Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) by the waist; I saw Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) holding Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) by the waist; and then I saw blood pouring down from the sky to the earth." When Imam al-Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him)
narrated this, some Shi'ah were present with him at that time. They said: "Did you not see Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him)?" Sayyiduna Imam al-Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "There is nothing I would have loved more than to see Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) holding the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) by the waist, but the dream is what I have described." Then Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "You narrate from Sayyiduna Imam al-Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him) a dream that he saw. We were taking part in a military expedition with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the people were struck by severe hardship, until I saw distress on the faces of the Muslims and joy on the faces of the hypocrites. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) observed this situation, he said: 'By Allah! Before the sun sets, Allah Almighty will grant you provision.' Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) knew that the Messenger of Allah speaks the truth, so Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) bought fourteen riding camels together with the food on them, and sent nine of them to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw them, he said: 'Where has this come from?' The people told him: 'Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) has sent these to you as a gift.' The narrator says: Then signs of joy appeared on the faces of the Muslims and signs of distress appeared on the faces of the hypocrites. I looked towards the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and saw that he had raised both his hands so high that the whiteness of his armpits could be seen; he was supplicating for Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) in a way I had never heard him supplicate for anyone before: 'O Allah! Give to Uthman; O Allah! Do this for Uthman.'"
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir in abridged form, and its chain is hasan (good).
