حَدَّثَنَا سَوَّارُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُمْهَانَ ، عَنْ سَفِينَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " خِلَافَةُ النُّبُوَّةِ ثَلَاثُونَ سَنَةً ، ثُمَّ يُؤْتِي اللَّهُ الْمُلْكَ أَوْ مُلْكَهُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ " ، قَالَ سَعِيدٌ : قَالَ لِي سَفِينَةُ : أَمْسِكْ عَلَيْكَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ سَنَتَيْنِ ، وَعُمَرُ عَشْرًا ،وَعُثْمَانُ اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ وَعَلِيٌّ كَذَا ، قَالَ سَعِيدٌ : قُلْتُ لِسَفِينَةَ : إِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّ عَلِيًّا عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام لَمْ يَكُنْ بِخَلِيفَةٍ ، قَالَ : كَذَبَتْ أَسْتَاهُ بَنِي الزَّرْقَاءِ ، يَعْنِي بَنِي مَرْوَانَ .
Narrated Safinah: The Prophet ﷺ said: The Caliphate of Prophecy will last thirty years; then Allah will give the Kingdom of His Kingdom to anyone He wills. Saeed told that Safinah said to him: Calculate Abu Bakr's caliphate as two years, Umar's as ten, Uthman's as twelve and Ali so and so. Saeed said: I said to Safinah: They conceive that Ali was not a caliph. He replied: The buttocks of Marwan told a lie.
