Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 366 — I passed by the mosque and saw Ali

حَدَّثَنَا خَلَفُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الْعُكْبَرِيُّ، ثنا مُعَلَّى بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ الْمَوْصِلِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، حَدَّثَنِي أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، قَالَ: مَرَرْتُ بِالْمَسْجِدِ، فَإِذَا عَلِيٌّ وَالْعَبَّاسُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا قَاعِدَانِ، فَقَالَا: يَا أُسَامَةُ، اسْتَأْذِنْ لَنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، هَذَا عَلِيٌّ، وَالْعَبَّاسُ بِالْبَابِ، يُرِيدَانِ الدُّخُولَ عَلَيْكَ، قَالَ: «تَدْرِي مَا جَاءَ بِهِمَا؟» قُلْتُ: لَا وَاللهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا أَدْرِي وَمَا جَاءَ بِهِمَا. قَالَ: «وَلَكِنِّي قَدْ عَلِمْتُ مَا جَاءَ بِهِمَا، ائْذَنْ لَهُمَا» فَدَخَلَا عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ جِئْنَا نَسْأَلُكَ: أَيُّ أَهْلِكَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ؟ قَالَ: «فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ مُحَمَّدٍ» صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. قَالَ عَلِيٌّ: وَاللهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا عَنْ أَهْلِكَ أَسْأَلُكَ. قَالَ: " فَأَحَبُّ أَهْلِي إِلَيَّ مَنْ أَنْعَمَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَنْعَمْتُ عَلَيْهِ: أُسَامَةُ ". قَالَ: ثُمَّ مَنْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: «ثُمَّ أَنْتَ» . قَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ: أَجَعَلْتَ عَمَّكَ آخِرَهُمْ؟ قَالَ: «إِنَّ عَلِيًّا سَبَقَكَ بِالْهِجْرَةِ»
Usamah bin Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I passed by the mosque and saw Ali and al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) sitting. They said: O Usamah, seek permission for us from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I said: O Messenger of Allah, Ali and al-Abbas are at the door; they wish to come in to you. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do you know what has brought them?" I said: No, by Allah, O Messenger of Allah, I do not know what has brought them. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "But I know what has brought them; give them permission." So they both came in, and Ali said: O Messenger of Allah, we have come to ask you: which of your family is most beloved to you? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Fatimah bint Muhammad." Ali said: By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, we are not asking you about your family. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then the most beloved to me of my (other) family is the one upon whom Allah bestowed favour and upon whom I bestowed favour: Usamah." He asked: Then who, O Messenger of Allah? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then you." Al-Abbas said: Have you put your uncle last of them? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Ali preceded you in emigration (Hijrah)."
