Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 3934 — gold or silver was brought to Sayyiduna Ali

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الرَّازِيُّ قَالَ : نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْمُحَارِبِيُّ قَالَ : نَا عَبْدُ الْكَرِيمِ أَبُو يَعْفُورٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُجَيٍّ ، أَنَّ عَلِيًّا أَتَى يَوْمَ الْبَصْرَةِ بِذَهَبٍ أَوْ فِضَّةٍ فَنَكَتَهُ وَقَالَ : ابْيَضِّي وَاصْفَرِّي وَغُرِّي غَيْرِي ، غُرِّي أَهْلَ الشَّامِ غَدًا إِذَا ظَهَرُوا عَلَيْكَ . فَشَقَّ قَوْلُهُ ذَلِكَ عَلَى النَّاسِ ، فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ ، فَأَذَّنَ فِي النَّاسِ ، فَدَخَلُوا عَلَيْهِ .
فَقَالَ : إِنَّ خَلِيلِي صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : يَا عَلِيُّ إِنَّكَ سَتَقْدُمُ عَلَى اللهِ وَشِيعَتُكَ رَاضِينَ مَرْضِيِّينَ ، وَيَقْدُمُ عَلَيْهِ عَدُوُّكَ غِضَابَ مُقْمَحِينَ I " ، ثُمَّ جَمَعَ عَلِيٌّ يَدَهُ إِلَى عُنُقِهِ يُرِيهُمْ كَيْفَ الْإِقْمَاحُ .
لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ إِلَّا جَابِرٌ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ عَبْدُ الْكَرِيمِ أَبُو يَعْفُورٍ .
It is narrated from Abdullah bin Nujayy (may Allah have mercy on him) that gold or silver was brought to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) on the day of (the battle of) Basrah, and he (may Allah be pleased with him) began to poke at it (with his hand or a stick) and said: "Be white, be yellow, and deceive someone other than me. Tomorrow, when the people of Syria overcome you, deceive them." This saying of his (may Allah be pleased with him) weighed heavily on the people, so it was mentioned to him, and he (may Allah be pleased with him) had an announcement made among the people, and they came to him.
Then he (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "My dear friend (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: 'O Ali, you will come before Allah with your followers pleased and well-pleasing, and your enemies will come before Him full of anger, with their heads forced up (their necks stiffened).'" Then Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) drew his hand up to his neck to show them what iqmah (having the head forced upwards) is like.
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Abu al-Tufayl except Jabir; Abd al-Karim Abu Ya'fur is alone in narrating it."
