Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 168 — Ali called the people to pledge

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْفِرْيَابِيُّ، ثنا فِطْرُ بْنُ خَلِيفَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ، قَالَ: دَعَاهُمْ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ إِلَى الْبَيْعَةِ، فَجَاءَ فِيهِمْ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مُلْجَمٍ، وَقَدْ كَانَ رَآهُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ مَرَّتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " مَا يُحْبَسُ أَشْقَاهَا، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَيَخْضِبَنَّ هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ، وَتَمَثَّلَ بِهَذَيْنِ الْبَيْتَيْنِ:
[البحر الهزج]
اشُدُدْ حَيَازِيمَكَ لِلْمَوْ ... تِ فَإِنَّ الْمَوْتَ آتِيَكَ
وَلَا تَجْزَعْ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ ... إِذَا حَلَّ بِوَادِيكَ "
Abu al-Tufayl said: Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) called the people to pledge allegiance, and among them came Abd al-Rahman bin Muljam, although he had seen him twice before that. Then he said: "What is holding back the most wretched of them? By the One in whose hand is my soul, this (beard) will surely be dyed with this (blood from the head)," and he recited these two verses:
"Gird up your loins for death, for death is coming to you.
And do not be alarmed by death when it descends upon your valley."
