حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ حَمْشَاذٍ قَالَا ثنا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُوسَى ثنا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ ثنا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ مُجَالِدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ قَالَ
خَطَبَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ بِالنَّخْلَةِ حِينَ صَالَحَ مُعَاوِيَةَ فَقَامَ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «إِنَّ أَكْيَسَ الْكَيْسِ التُّقَى وَإِنَّ أَعْجَزَ الْعَجْزِ الْفُجُورُ وَإِنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ الَّذِي اخْتَلَفَتْ فِيهِ أَنَا وَمُعَاوِيَةُ حَقٌّ لِامْرِئٍ وَكَانَ أَحَقَّ بِحَقَّهِ مِنِّي أَوْ حَقٌّ لِي فَتَرَكْتُهُ لِمُعَاوِيَةَ إِرَادَةَ اسْتِضْلَاعِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَحَقْنَ دِمَائِهِمْ وَإِنْ أَدْرِي لَعَلَّهُ فِتْنَةٌ لَكُمْ وَمَتَاعٌ إِلَى حِينٍ أَقُولُ قُولِي هَذَا وَاسْتَغْفَرُ اللَّهَ لِي وَلَكُمْ»

✧ "The wisest among the wise is the pious, and the weakest among the weak is immorality. As for this matter in which Muawiya and I differed, it is a rightful matter for each of us. However, Muawiya had more right to it than me, so I left it for him to decide, to seek the satisfaction of the Muslims and preserve their lives. Though I do not know, it may be a trial for you and a temporary enjoyment. I say this and seek forgiveness from Allah for me and for you." - This was omitted by Al-Dhahabi from his summary due to its weakness.
