Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 175 — Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib seated me behind
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَمَّادِ بْنِ زُغْبَةَ قَالَ : نَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ قَالَ : أَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ رَبِّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ خَبَّابٍ ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ الْأَزْدِيِّ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ ، قَالَ :
أَرْدَفَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ خَلْفَهُ عَلَى بَغْلَةٍ ، فَلَمَّا وَضَعَ رِجْلَهُ فِي الرِّكَابِ قَالَ : بِاسْمِ اللهِ ، فَلَمَّا اسْتَوَى قَالَ : الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ ، فَلَمَّا تَمَّ قَالَ : الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُونَ . ثُمَّ حَمِدَ اللهَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ، ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ ثَلَاثًا ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي ، إِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ ، ثُمَّ ضَحِكَ . فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : مِمَّ تَضْحَكُ ؟ قَالَ : كُنْتُ رَدِيفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ، ثُمَّ ضَحِكَ . فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مِمَّ ضَحِكْتَ ؟ قَالَ : ضَحِكْتُ لِعَجَبِ اللهِ لِلْعَبْدِ ، يَقُولُ : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي إِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ ، يَقُولُ اللهُ : عَلِمَ أَنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ غَيْرِي .
لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ شَقِيقٍ الْأَزْدِيِّ - وَهُوَ : شَقِيقُ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ - إِلَّا يُونُسُ بْنُ خَبَّابٍ ، وَلَا عَنْ يُونُسَ إِلَّا عَبْدُ رَبِّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ .
أَرْدَفَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ خَلْفَهُ عَلَى بَغْلَةٍ ، فَلَمَّا وَضَعَ رِجْلَهُ فِي الرِّكَابِ قَالَ : بِاسْمِ اللهِ ، فَلَمَّا اسْتَوَى قَالَ : الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ ، فَلَمَّا تَمَّ قَالَ : الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُونَ . ثُمَّ حَمِدَ اللهَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ، ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ ثَلَاثًا ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي ، إِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ ، ثُمَّ ضَحِكَ . فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : مِمَّ تَضْحَكُ ؟ قَالَ : كُنْتُ رَدِيفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ، ثُمَّ ضَحِكَ . فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مِمَّ ضَحِكْتَ ؟ قَالَ : ضَحِكْتُ لِعَجَبِ اللهِ لِلْعَبْدِ ، يَقُولُ : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي إِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ ، يَقُولُ اللهُ : عَلِمَ أَنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ غَيْرِي .

Ali bin Rabi'ah (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) seated me behind him on a mule. When he put his foot in the stirrup he said: 'Bismillah' (In the name of Allah). Then when he settled (upon it) he said: 'Al-hamdu lillah' (All praise is for Allah). Then when he was fully seated he said: 'Al-hamdu lillahi alladhi sakhkhara lana hadha wa ma kunna lahu muqrinin, wa inna ila rabbina la-munqalibun' (All praise is for Allah who has subjected this to us, and we could not have brought it under control, and indeed to our Lord we will surely return). Then he praised Allah three times, then he declared the greatness of Allah three times (saying Allahu Akbar), then he supplicated: 'Allahumma ighfir li dhanbi, innahu la yaghfiru al-dhunuba illa anta' (O Allah, forgive me my sin; indeed, none forgives sins except You). Then he smiled. I asked him: Why did you smile? He said: "I was (likewise) riding behind the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) did exactly as I did, then he (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled. I said: O Messenger of Allah! Why did you smile? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'I smiled at the wonder of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, at the servant when he says: Allahumma ighfir li dhanbi, innahu la yaghfiru al-dhunuba illa anta (O Allah, forgive me my sin; indeed, none forgives sins except You), whereupon Allah Almighty says: My servant has come to know that there is none who forgives sins besides Me.'"
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Only Yunus bin Khabbab narrated this hadith from Shaqiq al-Azdi, who is Shaqiq bin Abi Abdullah, and only Abd Rabbih bin Sa'id from Yunus, while Ibn Lahi'ah is alone in narrating it."
