Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 4842 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent Sayyiduna Ali

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ الرَّامَهُرْمُزِيُّ قَالَ : نَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ قَالَ : نَا حَسَنُ بْنُ عَطِيَّةَ قَالَ : نَا سَعَّادُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَطَاءٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ : بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَخَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ ، كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا وَحْدَهُ وَجَمَعَهُمَا ، فَقَالَ : I " إِذَا اجْتَمَعْتُمَا فَعَلَيْكُمْ عَلِيٌّ I " . قَالَ : فَأَخَذَا يَمِينًا وَيَسَارًا ، فَدَخَلَ عَلِيٌّ فَأَبْعَدَ ، فَأَصَابَ سَبْيًا ، فَأَخَذَ جَارِيَةً مِنَ السَّبْيِ ، قَالَ بُرَيْدَةُ : وَكُنْتُ مِنْ أَشَدِّ النَّاسِ بُغْضًا لِعَلِيٍّ ، فَأَتَى رَجُلٌ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ فَذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ أَخَذَ جَارِيَةً مِنَ الْخُمُسِ ، فَقَالَ : مَا هَذَا ؟ ثُمَّ جَاءَ آخَرُ ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ آخَرُ ، ثُمَّ تَتَابَعَتِ الْأَخْبَارُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ، فَدَعَانِي خَالِدٌ ، فَقَالَ : يَا بُرَيْدَةُ ، قَدْ عَرَفْتَ الَّذِي صُنِعَ ، فَانْطَلِقْ بِكِتَابِي هَذَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ فَانْطَلَقْتُ بِكِتَابِهِ حَتَّى دَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَخَذَ الْكِتَابَ بِشِمَالِهِ وَكَانَ كَمَا قَالَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَا يَقْرَأُ وَلَا يَكْتُبُ ، فَقَالَ : وَكُنْتُ إِذَا تَكَلَّمْتُ طَأْطَأْتُ رَأْسِي حَتَّى أَفْرُغَ مِنْ حَاجَتِي فَطَأْطَأْتُ رَأْسِي فَتَكَلَّمْتُ ، فَوَقَعْتُ فِي عَلِيٍّ حَتَّى فَرَغْتُ ، ثُمَّ رَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي ، فَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَضِبَ غَضَبًا لَمْ أَرَهُ غَضِبَ مِثْلَهُ إِلَّا يَوْمَ قُرَيْظَةَ وَالنَّضِيرِ ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَيَّ ، فَقَالَ : يَا بُرَيْدَةُ ، أَحِبَّ عَلِيًّا ، فَإِنَّمَا يَفْعَلُ مَا يُؤْمَرُ بِهِ ، قَالَ : فَقُمْتُ ، وَمَا مِنَ النَّاسِ أَحَدٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْهُ .
لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَطَاءٍ إِلَّا سَعَّادُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، وَلَا رَوَاهُ عَنْ سَعَّادٍ إِلَّا حَسَنُ بْنُ عَطِيَّةَ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ I " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) separately (on an expedition), and, assigning the two of them together, he said: "When the two of you come together, Ali will be (the commander) over you." (Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him)) said: Then the two of them set out, one to the right and one to the left. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) advanced and prevailed over the enemy, and some captives fell into his hands, and he took a slave girl from among the captives. Sayyiduna Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was among the people who hated Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) the most. A man came to Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) and mentioned that he (Ali (may Allah be pleased with him)) had taken a slave girl from the fifth (khumus). He said: "What is this matter?" Then another man came, then another, and so reports came one after another. Then Sayyiduna Khalid (may Allah be pleased with him) called me and said: "O Buraydah! You have come to know what has happened; take this letter of mine to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)." He wrote a letter to him (peace and blessings be upon him), and I set off with the letter until I came into the presence of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) took the letter with his left hand, and his (peace and blessings be upon him) condition was as Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has said: he (peace and blessings be upon him) neither read nor wrote. (Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him)) said: Whenever I spoke, I would lower my head until I had finished what I needed to say. So I lowered my head and began to speak, and I complained about Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) until I had finished. Then when I raised my head, I saw that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was so intensely angry that I had never seen him (peace and blessings be upon him) so angry before except on the day of Banu Qurayzah and Banu al-Nadir. He (peace and blessings be upon him) looked at me and said: "O Buraydah! Love Ali, for he only does what he is commanded to do." (Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him)) said: Then I got up from there, and (the state was such that) no one among the people was more beloved to me than him.
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Abdullah bin Ata except Sa'ad bin Sulayman, and no one from Sa'ad except Hasan bin Atiyyah, while Abu Kurayb is alone in narrating it."
