It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) looked for me and found me sleeping in a water channel, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Get up! I do not blame the people for calling you 'Abu Turab' (father of dust)." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: He (peace and blessings be upon him) sensed that I had taken this to heart (that is, that I disliked it), so he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Get up! By Allah, I will surely make you pleased. You are my brother and the father of my two sons. You will fight to protect my Sunnah and you will discharge my obligations. Whoever dies in the time of my life is a treasure of Allah; whoever dies in your time has fulfilled his vow (or completed his term of life); whoever dies after your death while loving you, Allah will seal his end with security and faith for as long as the sun rises or sets; and whoever dies hating you dies the death of Jahiliyyah, and he will also be called to account for the deeds he did in Islam."
