Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: Once I was with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in some shade in Madinah. We were looking for Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) when we reached a garden, and we saw Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) sleeping on the ground, covered in dust. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I would not blame people if they gave you the kunyah Abu Turab. The narrator says: I saw Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him); his face had changed, and this weighed heavily on him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Ali, shall I not make you pleased? He submitted: Yes indeed. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: You are my brother and my minister (wazir). You will pay off my debt, fulfil my promises and discharge my obligations. Whoever loves you during my lifetime has fulfilled his duty; and whoever loves you during your lifetime after me (or: whoever loves you all his life after me), Allah Almighty will seal his end with security and faith and will keep him safe on the Day of Terror. And whoever dies while hating you, O Ali, will die the death of the Jahiliyyah, and Allah Almighty will call him to account for the deeds he did in Islam.
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its chain contains a narrator whom I do not know.
