حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو دَاوُدَ الْمُبَارَكِيُّ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو شِهَابٍ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي الْمُوَرِّعِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ
كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي جِنَازَةٍ، فَقَالَ: مَنْ يَأْتِي الْمَدِينَةَ، فَلَا يَدَعُ قَبْرًا إِلَّا سَوَّاهُ، وَلَا صُورَةً إِلَّا طَلَخَهَا، وَلَا وَثَنًا إِلَّا كَسَرَهُ ؟ قَالَ: فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ، فَقَالَ: أَنَا، ثُمَّ هَابَ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ، فَجَلَسَ، قَالَ عَلِيٌّ: فَانْطَلَقْتُ، ثُمَّ جِئْتُ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، لَمْ أَدَعْ بِالْمَدِينَةِ قَبْرًا إِلَّا سَوَّيْتُهُ، وَلَا صُورَةً إِلَّا طَلَخْتُهَا، وَلَا وَثَنًا إِلَّا كَسَرْتُهُ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ: مَنْ عَادَ فَصَنَعَ شَيْئًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَدْ كَفَرَ بِمَا أَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ، يَا عَلِيُّ، لَا تَكُونَنَّ فَتَّانًا - أَوْ قَالَ: مُخْتَالًا - وَلَا تَاجِرًا إِلَّا تَاجِرَ الْخَيْرِ، فَإِنَّ أُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْمَسْبُوقُونَ فِي الْعَمَلِ

✧ We were with the Messenger of God ﷺ at a funeral, and he said: 'Who will go to Madinah and not leave a grave without leveling it, nor an image without defacing it, nor an idol without breaking it?' He said: A man stood and said: 'I will.' Then he feared the people of Madinah, and sat down. Ali said: So I set out, then came back and said: O Messenger of God, I did not leave in Madinah a grave without leveling it, nor an image without defacing it, nor an idol without breaking it. He said: Then he said: 'Whoever returns and does any of that has disbelieved in what God sent down upon Muhammad. O Ali, do not be a tempter'—or he said: 'a vainglorious one'—'nor a merchant except a merchant of good, for those are the ones outstripped in deeds.'

يرويه الحكم بن عتيبة واختلف عنه فرواه شعبة بن الحجاج والحجاج بن أرطاة عن الحكم عن أبي محمد الهذلي عن علي وخالفهما أبان بن تغلب رواه عن الحكم عن ثعلبة بن يزيد الحماني على علي وخالفهم طارق بن عبد الرحمن فرواه عن الحكم عن قيس بن أبي حازم عن علي وكذلك قال صالح بن كيسان فيما بلغه عن الحكم عن قيس وأشبهها بالصواب قول شعبة عن الحكم
machine translationIt is narrated by al-Ḥakam b. ʿUtaybah, and there is disagreement about him. Shuʿbah b. al-Ḥajjāj and al-Ḥajjāj b. Arṭāh narrated it from al-Ḥakam, from Abū Muḥammad al-Hudhalī, from ʿAlī. Abān b. Taghlib differed from them: he narrated it from al-Ḥakam, from Thaʿlabah b. Yazīd al-Ḥimmānī, from ʿAlī. Ṭāriq b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān differed from them as well, narrating it from al-Ḥakam, from Qays b. Abī Ḥāzim, from ʿAlī. Ṣāliḥ b. Kaysān said likewise, in what reached him from al-Ḥakam, from Qays. The closest of these to the correct view is the statement of Shuʿbah from al-Ḥakam.
