Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 14963

وَعَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ قَالَ : نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - الْجُحْفَةَ ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ ، فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ ، وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " إِنِّي لَا أَجِدُ لِنَبِيٍّ إِلَّا نِصْفَ عُمُرِ الَّذِي قَبْلَهُ ، وَإِنِّي أُوشِكُ أَنْ أُدْعَى فَأُجِيبَ ، فَمَا أَنْتُمْ قَائِلُونَ ؟ " . قَالُوا : نَصَحْتَ قَالَ : " أَلَيْسَ تَشْهَدُونَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ ، وَأَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ حَقٌّ ، وَأَنَّ النَّارَ حَقٌّ ؟ " . قَالُوا : نَشْهَدُ ، قَالَ : فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَوَضَعَهَا عَلَى صَدْرِهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " أَنَا أَشْهَدُ مَعَكُمْ " . ثُمَّ قَالَ : " أَلَا تَسْمَعُونَ ؟ " . قَالُوا : نَعَمْ . قَالَ : " فَإِنِّي فَرَطٌ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ ، وَأَنْتُمْ وَارِدُونَ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ ، وَإِنَّ عَرْضَهُ مَا بَيْنَ صَنْعَاءَ وَبُصْرَى ، فِيهِ أَقْدَاحٌ عَدَدَ النُّجُومِ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ ، فَانْظُرُوا كَيْفَ تَخْلُفُونِي فِي الثَّقَلَيْنِ " . فَنَادَى مُنَادٍ : وَمَا الثَّقَلَانِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ : " كِتَابُ اللَّهِ ، طَرَفٌ بِيَدِ اللَّهِ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - وَطَرَفٌ بِأَيْدِيكُمْ ، فَتَمَسَّكُوا بِهِ لَا تَضِلُّوا ، وَالْآخَرُ عَشِيرَتِي ، وَإِنَّ اللَّطِيفَ الْخَبِيرَ نَبَّأَنِي أَنَّهُمَا لَنْ يَتَفَرَّقَا حَتَّى يَرِدَا عَلَيَّ الْحَوْضَ ، فَسَأَلْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُمَا رَبِّي ، فَلَا تَقَدَّمُوهُمَا فَتَهْلَكُوا ، وَلَا تَقْصِرُوا عَنْهُمَا فَتَهْلَكُوا ، وَلَا تَعْلَمُوهُمَا فَهُمْ أَعْلَمُ مِنْكُمْ " . ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِ عَلِيٍّ - رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ - فَقَالَ : " مَنْ كُنْتُ أَوْلَى بِهِ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ فَعَلِيٌّ وَلِيُّهُ ، اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ ، وَعَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ " .
Sayyiduna Zayd bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) encamped at al-Juhfah. Then he turned towards the people, and he (peace and blessings be upon him), after praising and extolling Allah Almighty, said: "Every prophet I have found had half the lifespan of the prophet before him, and soon I will be called and I will have to go. So what do you say? The people said: You have given sincere counsel. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Do you not bear witness that there is no god but Allah, that Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is His servant and His Messenger, that Paradise is true and that Hell is true? The people said: We bear witness to this. The narrator says: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his blessed hand, placed it on his chest and said: I bear witness along with you. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Do you not hear? The people said: Yes indeed! The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I will be your forerunner at the Pond, and you will come to me at the Pond. Its width is as great as the distance between San'a' and Busra. At it there are cups made of silver, as many as the stars of the sky. So consider how you will deal with the two things after me. A caller called out: O Messenger of Allah! What is meant by the two things? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The Book of Allah, one end of which is in the hand of Allah and the other end in your hands; hold fast to it and you will not go astray. And the other is my kinsfolk. The Subtle, the All-Aware has informed me that these two will not separate from each other until they both come to me at the Pond, and I have asked my Lord for this for the two of them. So do not try to go ahead of them, or you will be ruined; do not fall short regarding them, or you will be ruined; and do not try to teach them, for they know more than you." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) by the hand and said: "Whoever I am closer to than his own self, Ali too is his wali (patron). O Allah! Love whoever loves him, and be the enemy of whoever is his enemy."
