حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنِ الْمِنْهَالِ ، عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ - أَوْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّادٍ - عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ، قَالَ : صَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَخَطَبَ ، ثُمَّ قَامَ إِلَيْهِ الْأَشْعَثُ ، فَقَالَ : غَلَبَتْنَا عَلَيْكَ هَذِهِ الْحُمَيْرَاءُ ، فَقَالَ : مَنْ يَعْذِرُنِي مِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ الضَّيَاطِرَةِ ، يَتَخَلَّفُ أَحَدُهُمْ يَتَقَلَّبُ عَلَى حَشَايَاهُ ، وَهَؤُلَاءِ يُهَجِّرُونَ إِلَى ذِكْرِ اللهِ ، إِنْ طَرَدْتُهُمْ إِنِّي إِذًا لَمِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ ، أَمَا وَاللهِ لَقَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ : لَيَضْرِبُنَّكُمْ عَلَى الدِّينِ عَوْدًا ، كَمَا ضَرَبْتُمُوهُمْ عَلَيْهِ بَدْءًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that he ascended the pulpit on Friday and delivered a sermon. Then Sayyiduna al-Ash'ath (may Allah be pleased with him) stood up towards him and said: "These red-complexioned people (non-Arabs) have overpowered us in your presence." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Who will accept my excuse regarding these heavy, sluggish people? One of them stays behind, turning from side to side on his soft bedding, while these people hasten early to the remembrance of Allah. If I were to drive them away, I would then certainly be among the wrongdoers. Indeed, by Allah, I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'These people will fight you for the religion again, just as you fought them for it in the beginning.'"
