حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْجَلِيلِ قَالَ انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى حَلْقَةٍ فِيهَا أَبُو مِجْلَزٍ وَابْنَا بُرَيْدَةَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي بُرَيْدَةُ قَالَ

أَبْغَضْتُ عَلِيًّا بُغْضًا لَمْ أُبْغِضْهُ أَحَدًا قَطُّ قَالَ: وَأَحْبَبْتُ رَجُلًا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ لَمْ أُحِبَّهُ، إِلَّا عَلَى بُغْضِهِ عَلِيًّا قَالَ: فَبُعِثَ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى خَيْلٍ، فَصَحِبْتُهُ مَا أَصْحَبُهُ إِلَّا عَلَى بُغْضِهِ عَلِيًّا قَالَ: فَأَصَبْنَا سَبْيًا قَالَ: فَكَتَبَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ: ابْعَثْ إِلَيْنَا مَنْ يُخَمِّسُهُ قَالَ: فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْنَا عَلِيًّا، وَفِي السَّبْيِ وَصِيفَةٌ هِيَ مِنْ أَفْضَلِ السَّبْيِ، فَخَمَّسَ وَقَسَمَ، فَخَرَجَ وَرَأْسُهُ يَقْطُرُ، فَقُلْنَا: يَا أَبَا الْحَسَنِ، مَا هَذَا؟ قَالَ: أَلَمْ تَرَوْا إِلَى الْوَصِيفَةِ الَّتِي كَانَتْ فِي السَّبْيِ، فَإِنِّي قَسَمْتُ، وَخَمَّسْتُ، فَصَارَتْ فِي الْخُمُسِ، ثُمَّ صَارَتْ فِي أَهْلِ بَيْتِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، ثُمَّ صَارَتْ فِي آلِ عَلِيٍّ، وَوَقَعْتُ بِهَا قَالَ: فَكَتَبَ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقُلْتُ: ابْعَثْنِي، فَبَعَثَنِي مُصَدِّقًا قَالَ: فَجَعَلْتُ أَقْرَأُ الْكِتَابَ، وَأَقُولُ: صَدَقَ قَالَ: فَأَمْسَكَ يَدِي، وَالْكِتَابَ، وَقَالَ: أَتُبْغِضُ عَلِيًّا؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَلَا تُبْغِضْهُ، وَإِنْ كُنْتَ تُحِبُّهُ، فَازْدَدْ لَهُ حُبًّا، فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَنَصِيبُ آلِ عَلِيٍّ فِي الْخُمُسِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ وَصِيفَةٍ قَالَ: فَمَا كَانَ مِنَ النَّاسِ أَحَدٌ بَعْدَ قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ عَلِيٍّ

✧ I hated ʿAlī with a hatred I had never felt for anyone, and I loved a man from Quraysh only because of his hatred of ʿAlī. That man was sent in command of a cavalry force, and I accompanied him only because of his hatred of ʿAlī. We captured some prisoners, and he wrote to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: 'Send us someone to take the fifth.' He sent ʿAlī to us. Among the captives was a young slave girl who was among the best of them. He took the fifth and divided the rest, then came out with his head dripping. We said: 'O Abū al-Ḥasan, what is this?' He said: 'Did you not see the slave girl among the captives? I divided and took the fifth, and she fell to the fifth, then to the Prophet's household ﷺ, then to the family of ʿAlī, and I had intercourse with her.' The man wrote to the Prophet of Allah ﷺ, and I said: 'Send me.' So he sent me as a collector of zakāt. I began to read the letter and say: 'He has spoken the truth.' He took hold of my hand and the letter, and said: 'Do you hate ʿAlī?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Do not hate him, and if you love him, increase your love for him. For by the One in Whose hand is the soul of Muḥammad, the share of the family of ʿAlī in the fifth is better than a slave girl.' After the words of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, no one among people became more beloved to me than ʿAlī.
