حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ سَبُعٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا يَقُولُ

لَتُخْضَبَنَّ هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذَا، فَمَا يَنْتَظِرُ بِي الْأَشْقَى ؟ قَالُوا: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، فَأَخْبِرْنَا بِهِ نُبِيرُ عِتْرَتَهُ، قَالَ: إِذَنْ تَاللهِ تَقْتُلُونَ بِي غَيْرَ قَاتِلِي، قَالُوا: فَاسْتَخْلِفْ عَلَيْنَا قَالَ: لَا، وَلَكِنْ أَتْرُكُكُمْ إِلَى مَا تَرَكَكُمْ إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالُوا: فَمَا تَقُولُ لِرَبِّكَ إِذَا أَتَيْتَهُ ؟ - وَقَالَ وَكِيعٌ مَرَّةً: إِذَا لَقِيتَهُ ؟ - قَالَ: أَقُولُ: اللَّهُمَّ تَرَكْتَنِي فِيهِمْ مَا بَدَا لَكَ، ثُمَّ قَبَضْتَنِي إِلَيْكَ وَأَنْتَ فِيهِمْ، فَإِنْ شِئْتَ أَصْلَحْتَهُمْ، وَإِنْ شِئْتَ أَفْسَدْتَهُمْ

✧ This [the beard] will surely be dyed from this [the head]. What is the most wretched one waiting for with me? They said: O Commander of the Believers, tell us who he is, so we can kill his offspring. He said: Then, by God, you would kill on my account someone other than my killer. They said: Then appoint a successor over us. He said: No, but I leave you as the Messenger of God ﷺ left you. They said: Then what will you say to your Lord when you come to Him? — and Wakī‘ once said: when you meet Him? — He said: I will say: O God, You left me among them as long as You willed, then You took me to You while You were still among them. If You will, You will set them right; and if You will, You will corrupt them.
