Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 32626 — Reports on talk about rulers
٣٢٦٢٦ - حدثنا غندر عن شعبة عن سعد بن إبراهيم قال: سمعت أبي (يقول) (١): قال: بلغ علي بن أبي طالب أن طلحة يقول: إنما بايعت واللج (٢) على قفاي، فأرسل ابن عباس فسأله، قال: فقال أسامة: أما اللج على قفاه فلا، ولكن (قد) (٣) بايع وهو كاره، قال: فوثب الناس إليه حتى كادوا أن يقتلوه، قال: ⦗١٢٣⦘ فخرج صهيب وأنا إلى جنبه (فالتفت) (٤) إلي فقال: قد علمت أن أم عوف (حائنة) (٥) (٦).
Ibrahim said: The news reached Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) was saying: "I pledged allegiance in a state where a sword was placed on the back of my neck." He sent Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) to him, and he asked him about the truth of this. Then Sayyiduna Usamah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "There was no sword on the back of his neck, but the fact of the matter is that he pledged allegiance in a state where he was unwilling." So the people fell upon him and almost killed him. He said: Then Sayyiduna Suhayb (may Allah be pleased with him) came out, and I was at his side. He looked towards me and said: "You know that the locust is sure to perish."
