حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا رِشْدِينُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ الْهَادِ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَلِيٌّ
قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: مَنْ أَشْقَى الْأَوَّلِينَ ؟ قُلْتُ: عَاقِرُ النَّاقَةِ، قَالَ: صَدَقْتَ، فَمَنْ أَشْقَى الْآخِرِينَ ؟ قُلْتُ: لَا عِلْمَ لِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: الَّذِي يَضْرِبُكَ عَلَى هَذِهِ، وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى يَافُوخِهِ، وَكَانَ يَقُولُ: وَدِدْتُ أَنَّهُ قَدِ انْبَعَثَ أَشْقَاكُمْ فَخَضَّبَ هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ، يَعْنِي لِحْيَتَهُ مِنْ دَمِ رَأْسِهِ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, “Who is the most wretched of the former peoples?” I said, “The one who hamstrung the she-camel.” He said, “You have spoken the truth. So who is the most wretched of the latter peoples?” I said, “I have no knowledge, O Messenger of Allah.” He said, “The one who strikes you on this,” and he gestured with his hand to the top of his head. He used to say, “I wish that the most wretched of you would rise up and dye this from this,” meaning his beard from the blood of his head.
