Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 34242 — The virtues of Ali bin Abi Talib

Abu Ishaq said that Sayyiduna Hubshi bin Junadah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: At this Sharik (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I asked him: O Abu Ishaq, where did you see him? He (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Hubshi stopped at our gathering and said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) is from me and I am from him, and none shall discharge on my behalf except Ali (may Allah be pleased with him).
