حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ أَنْبَأَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْقُرَشِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ دَاوُدَ ثنا نُعَيْمُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ ثنا أَبُو مَرْيَمَ الْأَسَدِيُّ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ
لَمَّا كَانَ اللَّيْلَةَ الَّتِي أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ أَبِيتَ عَلَى فِرَاشِهِ وَخَرَجَ مِنْ مَكَّةَ مُهَاجِرًا انْطَلَقَ بِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْأَصْنَامِ فَقَالَ «اجْلِسْ» فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِ الْكَعْبَةِ ثُمَّ صَعِدَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى مَنْكِبِي ثُمَّ قَالَ «انْهَضْ» فَنَهَضْتُ بِهِ فَلَمَّا رَأَى ضَعْفِي تَحْتَهُ قَالَ اجْلِسْ فَجَلَسْتُ فَأَنْزَلْتُهُ عَنِّي وَجَلَسَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي «يَا عَلِيُّ اصْعَدْ عَلَى مَنْكِبِي» فَصَعِدْتُ عَلَى مَنْكِبَيْهِ ثُمَّ نَهَضَ بِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَخُيِّلَ إِلَيَّ أَنِّي لَوْ شِئْتُ نِلْتُ السَّمَاءَ وَصَعِدْتُ إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ وَتَنَحَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَلْقَيْتُ صَنَمَهُمُ الْأَكْبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ مَوَتَّدًا بِأَوْتَادٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «عَالِجْهُ» فَعَالَجْتُهُ فَمَا زِلْتُ أُعَالِجُهُ وَيَقُولُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِيهْ إِيهْ» فَلَمْ أَزَلْ أُعَالِجُهُ حَتَّى اسْتَمْكَنْتُ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ «دُقَّهُ» فَدَقَقْتُهُ فَكَسَرْتُهُ وَنَزَلْتُ

✧ On the night the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded me to sleep on his bed and he left Makkah as an emigrant, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ took me to the idols and said: "Sit." So I sat beside the Kaaba. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ climbed onto my shoulder and said: "Rise." So I rose with him. When he saw my weakness beneath him, he said: "Sit." So I sat and let him down from me. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat for me and said: "O Ali, climb onto my shoulder." So I climbed onto his shoulders. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ rose with me, and it seemed to me that if I wished I could touch the sky. I climbed onto the Kaaba, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ moved aside. I threw down their greatest idol, which was of copper, fastened to the ground with iron pegs. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me: "Work at it." So I worked at it, and I kept working at it while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Go on, go on." I kept working at it until I got a firm hold of it. Then he said: "Smash it." So I smashed it and broke it, and I came down.
