Hadith 802
(حديث مرفوع) حدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، حدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ رَاشِدٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ ، عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَبِي فَضَالَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ ، وَكَانَ أَبُو فَضَالَةَ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ ، قَالَ : خَرَجْتُ مَعَ أَبِي عَائِدًا لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مِنْ مَرَضٍ أَصَابَهُ ، ثَقُلَ مِنْهُ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبِي : مَا يُقِيمُكَ فِي مَنْزِلِكَ هَذَا ، لَوْ أَصَابَكَ أَجَلُكَ لَمْ يَلِكَ إِلَّا أَعْرَابُ جُهَيْنَةَ ، تُحْمَلُ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ ، فَإِنْ أَصَابَكَ أَجَلُكَ وَلِيَكَ أَصْحَابُكَ وَصَلَّوْا عَلَيْكَ ، فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ أَنْ لَا أَمُوتَ حَتَّى أُؤَمَّرَ ، ثُمَّ تُخْضَبَ هَذِهِ ، يَعْنِي : لِحْيَتَهُ ، مِنْ دَمِ هَذِهِ ، يَعْنِي : هَامَتَهُ " ، فَقُتِلَ ، وَقُتِلَ أَبُو فَضَالَةَ مَعَ عَلِيٍّ يَوْمَ صِفِّينَ .
Fadala—whose father, Sayyiduna Abu Fadala Al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him), was among the Badri Companions—says that once I went with my father to visit Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) during his illness. He had become somewhat ill and was feeling heavy because of it. My father said to him, "What has this illness done to you? If your final time comes, no one except the villagers of Juhaina will come to you to take you to Madinah Munawwarah. Therefore, if your final time draws near, your companions should take care of you and should perform your funeral prayer." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) replied, "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has informed me that I will not die until I become a caliph, and after that, this beard will be dyed with the blood of this head." And so it happened: Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was martyred during his caliphate, while Sayyiduna Abu Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) participated in jihad with Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and was martyred at the time of the Battle of Siffin.
Hadith 803
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ الْمَاجِشُونِ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا اسْتَفْتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ يُكَبِّرُ ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ : " وَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي لِلَّذِي فَطَرَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ حَنِيفًا وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ ، إِنَّ صَلَاتِي وَنُسُكِي وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ ، لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَبِذَلِكَ أُمِرْتُ وَأَنَا أَوَّلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الْمَلِكُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ ، أَنْتَ رَبِّي ، وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ ، ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي ، وَاعْتَرَفْتُ بِذَنْبِي ، فَاغْفِرْ لِي ذُنُوبِي جَمِيعًا ، لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ ، اهْدِنِي لِأَحْسَنِ الْأَخْلَاقِ لَا يَهْدِي لِأَحْسَنِهَا إِلَّا أَنْتَ ، اصْرِفْ عَنِّي سَيِّئَهَا لَا يَصْرِفُ عَنِّي سَيِّئَهَا إِلَّا أَنْتَ ، لَبَّيْكَ وَسَعْدَيْكَ ، وَالْخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ فِي يَدَيْكَ ، وَالشَّرُّ لَيْسَ إِلَيْكَ ، أَنَا بِكَ وَإِلَيْكَ ، تَبَارَكْتَ وَتَعَالَيْتَ ، أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ " ، وَإِذَا رَكَعَ ، قَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ رَكَعْتُ ، وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ ، وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ ، خَشَعَ لَكَ سَمْعِي ، وَبَصَرِي ، وَمُخِّي ، وَعِظَامِي ، وَعَصَبِي " ، وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ ، قَالَ : " سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ ، رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ ، مِلْءَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ، وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ بَعْدُ " ، وَإِذَا سَجَدَ ، قَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ سَجَدْتُ ، وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ ، وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ ، سَجَدَ وَجْهِي لِلَّذِي خَلَقَهُ ، وَصَوَّرَهُ فَأَحْسَنَ صُوَرَهُ ، فَشَقَّ سَمْعَهُ وَبَصَرَهُ ، فَتَبَارَكَ اللَّهُ أَحْسَنُ الْخَالِقِينَ " ، وَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي مَا قَدَّمْتُ وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ ، وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ ، وَمَا أَسْرَفْتُ ، وَمَا أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنِّي ، أَنْتَ الْمُقَدِّمُ وَأَنْتَ الْمُؤَخِّرُ ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ " ، حدثنا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : بَلَغَنَا عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ رَاهَوَيْهِ ، عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ شُمَيْلٍ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ : " وَالشَّرُّ لَيْسَ إِلَيْكَ " ، قَالَ : لَا يُتَقَرَّبُ بِالشَّرِّ إِلَيْكَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say the opening takbeer, after reciting the thana, he would say: «وَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي لِلَّذِي فَطَرَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ حَنِيفًا وَمَا أَنَا مِنْ الْمُشْرِكِينَ إِنَّ صَلَاتِي وَنُسُكِي وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَبِذَلِكَ أُمِرْتُ وَأَنَا أَوَّلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ اَللّٰهُمَّ أَنْتَ الْمَلِكُ لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ أَنْتَ رَبِّي وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي وَاعْتَرَفْتُ بِذَنْبِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي ذُنُوبِي جَمِيعًا لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ اَللَّهُمَّ اهْدِنِي لِأَحْسَنِ الْأَخْلَاقِ لَا يَهْدِي لِأَحْسَنِهَا إِلَّا أَنْتَ اصْرِفْ عَنِّي سَيِّئَهَا لَا يَصْرِفُ عَنِّي سَيِّئَهَا إِلَّا أَنْتَ لَبَّيْكَ وَسَعْدَيْكَ وَالْخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ فِي يَدَيْكَ وَالشَّرُّ لَيْسَ إِلَيْكَ أَنَا بِكَ وَإِلَيْكَ تَبَارَكْتَ وَتَعَالَيْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ» "I have turned my face, being upright and in submission, towards Him Who created the heavens and the earth, and I am not among the polytheists. My prayer, my sacrifice, my life, and my death are for Allah, the Lord of all the worlds. He has no partner. This is what I have been commanded, and I am among the Muslims. O Allah! You are the true King, there is no deity except You, You are my Lord and I am Your servant. I have wronged myself, and I confess my sins, so forgive all my sins, for none forgives sins except You. Guide me to the best of character, for none guides to the best of character except You, and turn me away from bad character, for none can turn me away from it except You. I am present before You and at Your service. All kinds of good are in Your hands, and evil cannot approach You. I belong to You and will return to You. You are Most Blessed and Most Exalted. I seek Your forgiveness for my sins and I repent to You." When he would go into ruku, he would say: «اَللّٰهُمَّ لَكَ رَكَعْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ خَشَعَ لَكَ سَمْعِي وَبَصَرِي وَمُخِّي وَعِظَامِي وَعَصَبِي» "O Allah! I have bowed to You, I have believed in You, I have submitted to You. My hearing, my sight, my mind, my bones, and my tendons are all humbled before You." When he would rise from ruku, after saying 'Sami Allahu liman hamidah' and 'Rabbana wa lakal hamd', he would say: «لَكَ الْحَمْدُ مِلْءَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ بَعْدُ» "All praise is for You, filling the heavens, the earth, and whatever is between them, and whatever else You will to fill." When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would go into prostration, he would say: «اَللّٰهُمَّ لَكَ سَجَدْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ سَجَدَ وَجْهِي لِلَّذِي خَلَقَهُ وَصَوَّرَهُ فَأَحْسَنَ صُوَرَهُ فَشَقَّ سَمْعَهُ وَبَصَرَهُ فَتَبَارَكَ اللّٰهُ أَحْسَنُ الْخَالِقِينَ» "O Allah! I have prostrated for You, I have believed in You, I have submitted to You. My face has prostrated before the One Who created it and fashioned it well, and gave it hearing and sight. Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators." And when he would finish the prayer with salam, he would say: «اَللّٰهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِيْ مَا قَدَّمْتُ وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ وَمَا أَسْرَفْتُ وَمَا أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنِّي أَنْتَ الْمُقَدِّمُ وَأَنْتَ الْمُؤَخِّرُ لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ» "O Allah! Forgive all my past and future, hidden and apparent sins, and whatever excess I have committed, and whatever You know better than I do. You are the First and the Last, and there is no deity except You."

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَخِي ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَزْهَرَ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، يَقُولُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا يَحِلُّ لِامْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ أَنْ يُصْبِحَ فِي بَيْتِهِ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثٍ مِنْ لَحْمِ نُسُكِهِ شَيْءٌ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is not permissible for any Muslim that after three days, even a little of his sacrificial meat remains in his house." Benefit: This ruling was later abrogated.
Hadith 807
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَبَّاسِ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْأَصَمُّ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ السُّدِّيَّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ يَذْكُرُهُ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيِّ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقُلْتُ : إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ قَدْ مَاتَ ، قَالَ : " اذْهَبْ فَوَارِهِ ، ثُمَّ لَا تُحْدِثْ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي " ، قَالَ : فَوَارَيْتُهُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ ، قَالَ : " اذْهَبْ فَاغْتَسِلْ ، ثُمَّ لَا تُحْدِثْ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي " ، قَالَ : فَاغْتَسَلْتُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ ، قَالَ : فَدَعَا لِي بِدَعَوَاتٍ مَا يَسُرُّنِي أَنَّ لِي بِهَا حُمْرَ النَّعَمِ وَسُودَهَا ، قَالَ : وَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ إِذَا غَسَّلَ الْمَيِّتَ اغْتَسَلَ .
Once, Sayyidina Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and informed him of the death of Abu Talib. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go and hide him in a pit, and do not do any other work before coming to me." So when I had placed him in a pit and returned to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he said to me: "Go and perform ghusl (ritual bath), and do not do any other work before coming to me." So I performed ghusl and presented myself in the court of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave me so many supplications that I would not have been as happy to receive red or black camels in exchange. The narrator says that after this, whenever Sayyidina Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) gave ghusl to a deceased person, he would also perform ghusl himself.
Hadith 808
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْوَرَكَانِيُّ فِي سَنَةِ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ وَمِائَتَيْنِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَقِيلٍ يَحْيَى بْنُ الْمُتَوَكِّلِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ لُوَيْنٌ فِي سَنَةِ أَرْبَعِينَ وَمِائَتَيْنِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَقِيلٍ يَحْيَى بْنُ الْمُتَوَكِّلِ ، عَنْ كَثِيرٍ النَّوَّاءِ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ حَسَنِ بْنِ حَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " يَظْهَرُ فِي آخِرِ الزَّمَانِ قَوْمٌ يُسَمَّوْنَ الرَّافِضَةَ ، يَرْفُضُونَ الْإِسْلَامَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "In the last era, a people will emerge whose name will be Rawafid; they will abandon Islam" (their beliefs and actions will not be Islamic, even though they may use the name of Islam).
Hadith 809
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زَحْرٍ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : كُنْتُ آتِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَسْتَأْذِنُ ، " فَإِنَّ كَانَ فِي صَلَاةٍ سَبَّحَ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ فِي غَيْرِ صَلَاةٍ أَذِنَ لِي " .
Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I used to present myself before the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). If the Prophet (peace be upon him) was standing and performing prayer at that time, he would say "Subhan Allah," and if he was not performing prayer at that time, he would grant permission as it was (and there would be no need to say Subhan Allah).
Hadith 810

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah Almighty loves the believing servant who repents after being afflicted with a trial."
Hadith 811
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْوَرَكَانِيُّ ، أخبرنا أَبُو شِهَابٍ الْحَنَّاطُ عَبْدُ رَبِّهِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ ، عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي يَعْلَى ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ ابْنِ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : لَمَّا أَعْيَانِي أَمْرُ الْمَذْيِ ، أَمَرْتُ الْمِقْدَادَ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ عَنْهُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : " فِيهِ الْوُضُوءُ " ، اسْتِحْيَاءً مِنْ أَجْلِ فَاطِمَةَ .
Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I used to have frequent discharge of madhy (pre-seminal fluid). Since the daughter of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was in my marriage, I felt shy to ask the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this issue myself. When I became unable to bear it, I asked Sayyiduna Miqdad (may Allah be pleased with him) to ask the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this issue. So he asked, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Such a person should perform wudu (ablution)."
Hadith 812
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْمُقَدَّمِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " نَهَى يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ عَنِ الْمُتْعَةِ ، وَعَنْ لُحُومِ الْحُمُرِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade temporary marriage (mut'ah) and the meat of domesticated donkeys during the time of the Battle of Khaybar.
Hadith 813
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ زِرٍّ ، أَنَّ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قِيلَ لَهُ : إِنَّ قَاتِلَ الزُّبَيْرِ عَلَى الْبَابِ ، فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ : لَيَدْخُلَنَّ قَاتِلُ ابْنِ صَفِيَّةَ النَّارَ ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " لِكُلِّ نَبِيٍّ حَوَارِيٌّ ، وَإِنَّ حَوَارِيِّي الزُّبَيْرَ بْنَ الْعَوَّامِ " .
Zirr bin Hubaish says that (Ibn Jurmuz sought permission to enter upon Sayyiduna Ali, may Allah be pleased with him. Sayyiduna Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, asked, "Who is it?") The people informed him that Ibn Jurmuz wanted to come in. He said: Let him come in. The killer of Sayyiduna Zubair, may Allah be pleased with him, will enter Hell.

Abdullah bin Al-Harith says that once Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Makkah Mukarramah and camped at a place called Qudayd. Horse meat was brought to him in large pots. Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) called Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) came while dusting off his hands, but he did not eat that food. The people also withheld their hands. Then Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Is there anyone from the tribe of Ashja’ present here? Do you know that a Bedouin once presented some ostrich eggs and dried meat of a wild animal to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Feed this to your family, for we are in the state of Ihram.” The people said, why not. Seeing this, Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) got up from the dining spread and went to his tent, saying that now a dislike has arisen in this for us as well.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me, Sayyiduna Zubair, and Sayyiduna Abu Marthad (may Allah be pleased with them both)—each of us was a horseman—to a certain place and said: "You people set out, when you reach Rawdat Khakh, there you will find a woman who will have a letter with her, which will be from Hatib bin Abi Balta'ah to the polytheists. Take that letter from her and return." So we set out, our horses were running swiftly, until we reached Rawdat Khakh. There we actually found a woman who was traveling on her camel. In that letter, the people of Makkah were informed about the departure of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). We said to her, "Hand over the letter you have." She said, "I have no letter." We made her camel sit down, searched her saddle, but found nothing. My two companions said, "We think she does not have any letter." I said, "You know that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has never lied." Then I swore an oath and said, "Either you yourself hand over the letter, or we will strip you naked." Compelled, she took out a letter from her hair braid and handed it over to us. We took that letter and presented it to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). People began to say, "O Messenger of Allah! He has betrayed Allah, His Messenger, and the Muslims. Allow me to strike his neck." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked them, "Hatib! What is this?" He replied, "O Messenger of Allah! By Allah, I believe in Allah and His Messenger. The matter is that I do not have any relation with the Quraysh, but I have joined them. All the emigrants who are with you have relatives in Makkah who protect their families. I thought that since I have no blood relatives there, I would do them a favor so that in return they would protect my relatives." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "You have spoken the truth, say only good about him." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), overcome with emotion, said, "O Messenger of Allah! He has betrayed Allah, His Messenger, and the Muslims. Allow me to strike his neck." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "He has participated in the Battle of Badr, and what do you know, perhaps Allah looked upon the people of Badr from the heavens and said: 'Do whatever you wish, I have made Paradise obligatory for you.'" At this, Sayyiduna Umar's (may Allah be pleased with him) eyes filled with tears and he said, "Allah and His Messenger know best."

Hadith 838
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، أخبرنا عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمَّا زَوَّجَهُ فَاطِمَةَ بَعَثَ مَعَهُ بِخَمِيلَةٍ وَوِسَادَةٍ مِنْ أَدَمٍ حَشْوُهَا لِيفٌ ، وَرَحَيَيْنِ ، وَسِقَاءٍ ، وَجَرَّتَيْنِ ، فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ لِفَاطِمَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ : وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ سَنَوْتُ حَتَّى قَدْ اشْتَكَيْتُ صَدْرِي ، قَالَ : وَقَدْ جَاءَ اللَّهُ أَبَاكِ بِسَبْيٍ ، فَاذْهَبِي فَاسْتَخْدِمِيهِ ، فَقَالَتْ : وَأَنَا وَاللَّهِ قَدْ طَحَنْتُ حَتَّى مَجَلَتْ يَدَايَ ، فَأَتَتْ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا جَاءَ بِكِ أَيْ بُنَيَّةُ ؟ " ، قَالَتْ : جِئْتُ لَأُسَلِّمَ عَلَيْكَ ، وَاسْتَحْيَت أَنْ تَسْأَلَهُ وَرَجَعَتْ ، فَقَالَ : مَا فَعَلْتِ ؟ قَالَتْ : اسْتَحْيَيْتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ ، فَأَتَيْنَاهُ جَمِيعًا ، فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ سَنَوْتُ حَتَّى اشْتَكَيْتُ صَدْرِي ، وَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا : قَدْ طَحَنْتُ حَتَّى مَجَلَتْ يَدَايَ ، وَقَدْ جَاءَكَ اللَّهُ بِسَبْيٍ وَسَعَةٍ فَأَخْدِمْنَا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " وَاللَّهِ لَا أُعْطِيكُمَا وَأَدَعُ أَهْلَ الصُّفَّةِ تَطْوَى بُطُونُهُمْ ، لَا أَجِدُ مَا أُنْفِقُ عَلَيْهِمْ ، وَلَكِنِّي أَبِيعُهُمْ وَأُنْفِقُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَثْمَانَهُمْ " ، فَرَجَعَا ، فَأَتَاهُمَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ دَخَلَا فِي قَطِيفَتِهِمَا ، إِذَا غَطَّتْ رُءُوسَهُمَا تَكَشَّفَتْ أَقْدَامُهُمَا ، وَإِذَا غَطَّيَا أَقْدَامَهُمَا تَكَشَّفَتْ رُءُوسُهُمَا ، فَثَارَا ، فَقَالَ : " مَكَانَكُمَا " ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمَا بِخَيْرٍ مِمَّا سَأَلْتُمَانِي ؟ " ، قَالَا : بَلَى ، فَقَالَ : " كَلِمَاتٌ عَلَّمَنِيهِنَّ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام ، فَقَالَ : تُسَبِّحَانِ فِي دُبُرِ كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ عَشْرًا ، وَتَحْمَدَانِ عَشْرًا ، وَتُكَبِّرَانِ عَشْرًا ، وَإِذَا أَوَيْتُمَا إِلَى فِرَاشِكُمَا فَسَبِّحَا ثَلَاثًا وَثَلَاثِينَ ، وَاحْمَدَا ثَلَاثًا وَثَلَاثِينَ ، وَكَبِّرَا أَرْبَعًا وَثَلَاثِينَ " ، قَالَ : فَوَاللَّهِ مَا تَرَكْتُهُنَّ مُنْذُ عَلَّمَنِيهِنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ الْكَوَّاءِ : وَلَا لَيْلَةَ صِفِّينَ ؟ فَقَالَ : قَاتَلَكُمْ اللَّهُ يَا أَهْلَ الْعِرَاقِ ، نَعَمْ ، وَلَا لَيْلَةَ صِفِّينَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) married his daughter, Sayyida Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), to him, he sent with her as dowry a woolen garment, a leather pillow stuffed with grass, two hand mills, a water skin, and two pitchers. One day, Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sayyida Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), "By Allah! My chest has started to ache from drawing water from the well again and again. Some captives have come to your father, so go and request him for a servant." Sayyida Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said, "By Allah! My hands have developed calluses from turning the hand mill." So she went to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked the reason for her coming. She replied that she had come to greet him. She felt shy to present her request before the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and returned. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) asked, "What happened?" She said, "I felt shy to ask him for anything, so I returned." After that, both of us went together to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O Messenger of Allah! My chest has started to ache from drawing water from the well again and again." Sayyida Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said, "My hands have developed calluses from turning the hand mill. Some captives have come to you, so please grant us one of them as a servant." Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "By Allah! I cannot give you a servant while leaving the people of Suffa, whose stomachs are stuck to their backs and I have nothing to spend on them. Rather, I will sell them and spend their price on the people of Suffa." So both of them returned. At night, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came to their house. The sheet they had was so small that if they covered their heads, their feet would be uncovered, and if they covered their feet, their heads would be uncovered. When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saw them, both of them tried to get up, but the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) stopped them and said, "After every prayer, say Subhan Allah, Alhamdulillah, and Allahu Akbar ten times each, and when you go to bed, say Subhan Allah thirty-three times, Alhamdulillah thirty-three times, and Allahu Akbar thirty-four times. (All your fatigue and illness will go away)." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says, "By Allah! Since the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) taught me these words, I have never abandoned them." Ibn Kawwa said, "Not even on the day of Siffin?" He replied, "O people of Iraq! May Allah understand you. No, not even on the day of Siffin."

Abdullah bin Salamah says that once I and two other men, one of whom was from my tribe and the other from Banu Asad, were sent ahead by Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said, "You both are still inexperienced, so practice to understand the religion." Then he went to the toilet, relieved himself, and when he came out, he took a handful of water and wiped it over his face, and began to recite the Qur'an. When he saw that we were surprised at this, he said, "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would also begin to recite the Noble Qur'an after coming out from relieving himself, and he would eat meat with us as well. Nothing except major ritual impurity (janabah) could prevent him from reciting the Noble Qur'an."

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ شَاكِيًا فَمَرَّ بِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا أَقُولُ : اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كَانَ أَجَلِي قَدْ حَضَرَ فَأَرِحْنِي ، وَإِنْ كَانَ مُتَأَخِّرًا فَارْفَعْنِي ، وَإِنْ كَانَ بَلَاءً فَصَبِّرْنِي ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " كَيْفَ قُلْتَ ؟ " ، فَأَعَادَ عَلَيْهِ مَا قَالَ ، قَالَ : فَضَرَبَهُ بِرِجْلِهِ ، وَقَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ عَافِهِ ، أَوْ اللَّهُمَّ اشْفِهِ " ، شَكَّ شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ : فَمَا اشْتَكَيْتُ وَجَعِي ذَاكَ بَعْدُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by me while I was ill, and I was making this supplication: "O Allah! If the time of my death is near, then grant me relief from this illness and call me to Yourself. If it is delayed, then raise me up, and if this is a trial, then grant me patience." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What are you saying?" I repeated my words. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) struck me with his foot, expressing displeasure, and supplicated: «”اَللّٰهُمَّ عَافِهِ أَوْ اَللّٰهُمَّ اشْفِهِ“ شَكَّ شُعْبَةُ» "O Allah! Grant him well-being and healing." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says that after that, I never suffered that pain again.
