Musnad of Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 310 — Sayyiduna Ali said to Sayyiduna al-Abbas: Ask
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زُرَيْرٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَلِيٌّ لِلْعَبَّاسِ: قُلْ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ يُعْطِيَكَ الْخِزَانَةَ، فَسَأَلَهُ الْعَبَّاسُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم: " أُعْطِيكُمْ مَا هُوَ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ: مَاتُرْزَؤُكُمْ وَلَا تُرْزَءُونَهَا ". فَأَعْطَاهُمُ السِّقَايَةَ
It is narrated from Abdullah bin Zurayr (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him): "Ask the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to grant you the custodianship of the keys (of the House of Allah)." So Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) requested it from him (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "I will give you something that is better for you than that: a service that takes nothing from you, and from which you take nothing." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) entrusted them with the siqayah (the service of giving water to the pilgrims).
