Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 860 — Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib came to Uhban

حَدَّثَنَا الْمِقْدَامُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، ثنا أَسَدُ بْنُ مُوسَى، ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرٍو الْقَسْمَلِيِّ، عَنْ بِنْتِ أُهْبَانَ، أَنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَتَى أُهْبَانَ، فَقَالَ: مَا يَمْنَعُكَ مِنَ اتِّبَاعِي؟ فَقَالَ: أَوْصَانِي خَلِيلِي، يَعْنِي رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «إِنَّهَا سَتَكُونُ فِتْنَةٌ وَفُرْقَةٌ، فَإِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ فَاكْسِرْ سَيْفَكَ، وَاتَّخِذْ سَيْفًا مِنْ خَشَبٍ» وَأَمَرَ أَهْلَهُ حِينَ ثَقُلَ أَنْ يُكَفِّنُوهُ، وَلَا يُلْبِسُوهُ قَمِيصًا، فَأَلْبَسْنَاهُ قَمِيصًا، فَأَصْبَحْنَا وَالْقَمِيصُ عَلَى الْمِشْجَبِ "
The daughter of Uhban said: Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Uhban and said: What prevents you from following me? He said: My close friend, meaning the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), advised me; he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Soon there will be tribulation and division. When that happens, break your sword and take up a sword of wood." And when his condition became grave, he instructed his family to shroud him and not to dress him in a shirt. But we dressed him in a shirt, and in the morning the shirt was on the clothes peg.
