Hadith 32562
٣٢٥٦٢ - حدثنا حسين (بن علي) (١) عن عبد الملك بن أبجر قال: كانوا يتكلمون، قال: فخرج عليٌ مرة ومعه عقيل، (قال) (٢): (ومع عقيل) (٣) كبش قال: (فقال) (٤) علي: (يعض) (٥) أحدنا بذكره، قال: قال عقيل: أما أنا وكبشي فلا (٦).
It is narrated from Abdul Malik bin Abjar (may Allah have mercy on him) that people were talking when Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) came out; Aqeel was with him, and Aqeel had a ram with him. The narrator says that Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Someone among us is being spoken ill of." Hazrat Aqeel said, "Well, neither I nor my ram is being spoken ill of, in any case."
