حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ لَيْثٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ رُفَيْعٍ قَالَ:
لَمَّا سَارَ عَلِيٌّ إِلَى صِفِّينَ، اسْتَخْلَفَ أَبَا مَسْعُودٍ عَلَى النَّاسِ، فَخَطَبَهُمْ فِي يَوْمِ جُمُعَةٍ فَرَأَى فِيهِمْ قِلَّةً، فَقَالَ: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ! اخْرُجُوا، فَمَنْ خَرَجَ فَهُوَ آمِنٌ، إِنَّا وَاللهِ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ [١]مِنْكُمُ الْكَارِهَ لِهَذَا الْأَمْرِ وَالْمُتَثَاقِلَ [عَنْهُ] [٢]، فَاخْرُجُوا، فَمَنْ خَرَجَ فَهُوَ آمِنٌ، إِنَّا وَاللهِ مَا نَعُدُّهَا عَافِيَةً أَنْ يَلْتَقِيَ [٣]هَذَانِ الْغَارَانِ [٤]يَتَّقِي أَحَدُهُمَا صَاحِبَهُ، وَلَكِنَّا [٥]نَعُدُّهَا عَافِيَةً أَنْ يُصْلِحَ اللهُ أُمَّةَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ [٦]وَيَجْمَعَ أُلْفَتَهَا، أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ وَمَا نَقَمَ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ ؟ إِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَدَعُوهُ وَذَنْبَهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ اللهُ هُوَ يُعَذِّبُهُ أَوْ يَعْفُو عَنْهُ، وَلَمْ يُدْرِكُوا الَّذِي طَلَبُوهُ؛ إِذْ حَسَدُوهُ مَا آتَاهُ اللهُ إِيَّاهُ. [2 ] [٧]- فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ عَلِيٌّ قَالَ لَهُ: أَنْتَ الْقَائِلُ مَا بَلَغَنِي عَنْكَ يَا فَرُّوخُ [٨]! إِنَّكَ شَيْخٌ قَدْ ذَهَبَ عَقْلُكَ، قَالَ: لَقَدْ سَمَّتْنِي أُمِّي بِاسْمٍ هُوَ أَحْسَنُ مِنْ هَذَا، أَذَهَبَ عَقْلِي وَقَدْ وَجَبَتْ لِي الْجَنَّةُ [مِنَ اللهِ وَمِنْ رَسُولِهِ ﷺ] [٩]؟! تَعْلَمُهُ أَنْتَ، وَمَا بَقِيَ مِنْ عَقْلِي: فَإِنَّا كُنَّا نَتَحَدَّثُ بِأَنَّ الْآخِرَ فَالْآخِرَ شَرٌّ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ. [3 ] [١٠]- فَلَمَّا كَانَ بِالسَّيْلَحِينِ أَوْ بِالْقَادِسِيَّةِ خَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَضَفْرَاهُ [١١]يَقْطُرَانِ، يَرَوْنَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ تَهَيَّأَ لِلْإِحْرَامِ، فَلَمَّا وَضَعَ رِجْلَهُ فِي الْغَرْزِ وَأَخَذَ بِمُؤَخَّرِ وَاسِطَةِ الرَّحْلِ قَامَ إِلَيْهِ نَاسٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَقَالُوا لَهُ: لَوْ عَهِدْتَ إِلَيْنَا يَا أَبَا مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: عَلَيْكُمْ بِتَقْوَى اللهِ وَالْجَمَاعَةِ، فَإِنَّ اللهَ لَا يَجْمَعُ أُمَّةَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ [١٢]عَلَى ضَلَالَةٍ، قَالَ: فَأَعَادُوا عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: عَلَيْكُمْ بِتَقْوَى اللهِ وَالْجَمَاعَةِ ! فَإِنَّمَا يَسْتَرِيحُ بَرٌّ، أَوْ يُسْتَرَاحُ مِنْ فَاجِرٍ

When 'Ali marched to Siffin, he appointed Abu Mas'ud over the people. He gave them a sermon on a Friday and saw that they were few, so he said: "O people! Go out, for whoever goes out is safe. By Allah, we know that among you are those who hate this matter and are reluctant about it, so go out, for whoever goes out is safe. By Allah, we do not consider it well-being that these two armies meet while one of them is wary of the other. Rather, we consider it well-being that Allah reform the Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ and unite its hearts. Shall I not tell you about 'Uthman and what the people resented about him? They will not leave him and his sin until Allah Himself punishes him or pardons him. They did not attain what they sought, for they envied him for what Allah had given him." [2] When 'Ali arrived, he said to him: "Are you the one who said what has reached me from you, O Farrukh? You are an old man whose mind has gone." He said: "My mother named me with a name better than this. Has my mind gone, when Paradise has been made obligatory for me [from Allah and His Messenger ﷺ]? You know it, and what remains of my mind: we used to speak of the last after the last being evil." Then he went out. [3] When he was at al-Sayhalin or al-Qadisiyyah, he went out to them with his two braids dripping, so they thought he had prepared to enter ihram. When he placed his foot in the stirrup and took hold of the rear of the saddle, some people stood up to him and said: "If only you had entrusted us, O Abu Mas'ud." He said: "Hold to the fear of Allah and the community, for Allah will not gather the Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ upon misguidance." They repeated it to him, and he said: "Hold to the fear of Allah and the community! For only the righteous find rest, or rest is sought from the wicked."
