حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ عُبَادٍ قَالَ
كُنَّا مَعَ عَلِيٍّ، فَكَانَ إِذَا شَهِدَ مَشْهَدًا، أَوْ أَشْرَفَ عَلَى أَكَمَةٍ، أَوْ هَبَطَ وَادِيًا قَالَ: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ صَدَقَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ، فَقُلْتُ لِرَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي يَشْكُرَ: انْطَلِقْ بِنَا إِلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ حَتَّى نَسْأَلَهُ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ صَدَقَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ، قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقْنَا إِلَيْهِ، فَقُلْنَا: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، رَأَيْنَاكَ إِذَا شَهِدْتَ مَشْهَدًا، أَوْ هَبَطْتَ وَادِيًا، أَوْ أَشْرَفْتَ عَلَى أَكَمَةٍ، قُلْتَ: صَدَقَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ، فَهَلْ عَهِدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ إِلَيْكَ شَيْئًا فِي ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: فَأَعْرَضَ عَنَّا، وَأَلْحَحْنَا عَلَيْهِ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ قَالَ: وَاللهِ مَا عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَهْدًا إِلَّا شَيْئًا عَهِدَهُ إِلَى النَّاسِ، وَلَكِنَّ النَّاسَ وَقَعُوا عَلَى عُثْمَانَ، فَقَتَلُوهُ، فَكَانَ غَيْرِي فِيهِ أَسْوَأَ حَالًا وَفِعْلًا مِنِّي، ثُمَّ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ أَنِّي أَحَقُّهُمْ بِهَذَا الْأَمْرِ، فَوَثَبْتُ عَلَيْهِ، فَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ أَصَبْنَا، أَمْ أَخْطَأْنَا

✧ We were with Ali, and whenever he witnessed a scene, or overlooked a hill, or descended into a valley, he said: 'Glory be to God; God and His Messenger have spoken the truth.' I said to a man from Banu Yashkur: 'Let us go to the Commander of the Believers so that we may ask him about his saying "God and His Messenger have spoken the truth."' He said: So we went to him and said: 'O Commander of the Believers, we saw that whenever you witnessed a scene, or descended into a valley, or overlooked a hill, you said: "God and His Messenger have spoken the truth." Did the Messenger of God entrust you with something in that regard?' He said: He turned away from us, and we persisted with him. When he saw that, he said: 'By God, the Messenger of God ﷺ did not entrust me with anything except what he entrusted to the people. But the people fell upon Uthman and killed him, and others were in a worse state and action regarding it than I. Then I thought that I was the most entitled of them to this matter, so I undertook it. God knows best whether we were right or wrong.'
