Musnad of Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 424 — when Abu Talib passed away, I came
حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْأَصَمُّ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ السُّدِّيَّ ، يَقُولُ : عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيِّ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ، قَالَ : لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ ، أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ، فَقُلْتُ : إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ قَدْ مَاتَ ، قَالَ : اذْهَبْ فَوَارِهِ ، وَلَا تُحْدِثْ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي ، قَالَ : فَوَارَيْتُهُ ، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ ، فَقَالَ : اذْهَبْ فَاغْتَسِلْ ، وَلَا تُحْدِثْ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي ، قَالَ : فَاغْتَسَلْتُ ، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ ، فَدَعَا لِي بِدَعَوَاتٍ مَا يَسُرُّنِي أَنَّ بِهَا حُمْرَ النَّعَمِ أَوْ سُودَهَا ، قَالَ : وَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ إِذَا غَسَّلَ مَيِّتًا اغْتَسَلَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that when Abu Talib passed away, I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "Your old uncle has died." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go and bury him, and do not do anything new until you come back to me." He said: So I buried him and then came to him (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go and take a bath (ghusl), and do not do anything until you come back to me again." He said: Then I took a bath and came to him (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) made such supplications for me that receiving red or black camels in exchange for them would not have pleased me as much. Al-Suddi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Whenever Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) washed a dead person, he would take a bath himself.
