Hadith 23106

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبةُ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بنِ مُرَّةَ ، عَنْ عَبدِ اللَّهِ بنِ الْحَارِثِ ، عَنْ زُهَيْرِ بنِ الْأَقْمَرِ ، قَالَ : بيْنَمَا الْحَسَنُ بنُ عَلِيٍّ يَخْطُب بعْدَمَا قُتِلَ عَلِيٌّ ، إِذْ قَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَزْدِ آدَمُ طُوَالٌ ، فَقَالَ : لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَاضِعَهُ فِي حَبوَتِهِ ، يَقُولُ : " مَنْ أَحَبنِي فَلْيُحِبهُ ، فَلْيُبلِّغْ الشَّاهِدُ الْغَائِب " ، وَلَوْلَا عَزْمَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا حَدَّثْتُكُمْ.
Zuhair bin Aqmar says that once, after the martyrdom of Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), Hazrat Imam Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him) was delivering a sermon when a tall, wheat-colored man from the tribe of Azd stood up and said: I saw the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he had Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) in his lap and was saying: Whoever loves me should also love him, and convey this message to those present and absent. And if the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had not said this with certainty, I would never have narrated it to you.
