حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ فُرَاتٍ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، ثنا عَوْنُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ نَائِمٌ أَوْ يُوحَى إِلَيْهِ، وَإِذَا حَيَّةٌ فِي جَانِبِ الْبَيْتِ، فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَقْتُلَهَا فَأُوقِظَهُ، فَاضْطَجَعْتُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْحَيَّةِ، فَإِنْ كَانَ شَيْءٌ كَانَ بِي دُونَهُ، فَاسْتَيْقَظَ وَهُوَ يَتْلُو هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ: {إِنَّمَا وَلِيُّكُمُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا} [المائدة: ٥٥] الْآيَةَ، قَالَ: «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ» فَرَآنِي إِلَى جَانِبِهِ، فَقَالَ: «مَا أَضْجَعَكَ هَهُنَا؟» قُلْتُ: لِمَكَانِ هَذِهِ الْحَيَّةِ، قَالَ: «قُمْ إِلَيْهَا فَاقْتُلْهَا» فَقَتَلْتُهَا، فَحَمِدَ اللهَ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِي، فَقَالَ: «يَا أَبَا رَافِعٍ سَيَكُونُ بَعْدِي قَوْمٌ يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلِيًّا، حَقًّا عَلَى اللهِ جِهَادُهُمْ فَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ جِهَادَهُمْ بِيَدِهِ فَبِلِسَانِهِ، فَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ بِلِسَانِهِ فَبِقَلْبِهِ، لَيْسَ وَرَاءَ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ»
Sayyiduna Abu Rafi' (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I entered upon the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was asleep, or revelation was coming down to him, and suddenly there was a snake in a corner of the house. I disliked killing it and waking him (peace and blessings be upon him), so I lay down between him (peace and blessings be upon him) and the snake, so that if anything happened it would happen to me rather than to him. Then he woke up reciting this verse: "Your ally is none but Allah and His Messenger and those who have believed" [Surah al-Ma'idah: 55], then he said: "Al-hamdu lillah (All praise is for Allah)." Then he saw me at his side and asked: "Why are you lying here?" I said: Because of this snake. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Get up and kill it." So I killed it, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) praised Allah, then he took my hand and said: "O Abu Rafi'! After me there will be a people who will fight Ali. It is a right upon Allah that they be fought against: whoever cannot strive against them with his hand, then with his tongue, and whoever cannot do so with his tongue, then with his heart. Beyond that there is nothing."
