أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْجُنَيْدِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ قَالَ
شَهِدْتُ عَلِيًّا أُتِيَ بِدَابَّةٍ لِيَرْكَبَهَا فَلَمَّا وَضَعَ رِجْلَهُ فِي الرِّكَابِ قَالَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فَلَمَّا اسْتَوَى عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ قَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ قَالَ {سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُونَ} ثُمَّ قَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ثَلَاثًا اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ثَلَاثًا سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي إِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ ثُمَّ ضَحِكَ قُلْتُ مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ ضَحِكْتَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ؟ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ صَنَعَ كَمَا صَنَعْتُ ثُمَّ ضَحِكَ فَقُلْتُ مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ ضَحِكْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَيَعْجَبُ مِنْ عَبْدِهِ إِذَا قَالَ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذُنُوبِي قَالَ عَلِمَ عَبْدِي أَنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ غَيْرِي»

✧ I witnessed ‘Alī being brought a mount to ride. When he placed his foot in the stirrup, he said, “In the name of Allah.” When he settled on its back, he said, “Praise be to Allah” three times, then said, “Glory be to Him who subjected this to us, for we were not capable of it” up to His saying, “and to our Lord we shall return.” Then he said, “Praise be to Allah” three times, “Allāhu akbar” three times, “Glory be to You, I have wronged myself, so forgive me, for none forgives sins but You.” Then he laughed. I asked, “Why did you laugh, O Commander of the Faithful?” He replied, “I saw the Prophet ﷺ do as I did, then he laughed. I asked, ‘Why did you laugh, O Messenger of Allah?’ He said, ‘Your Lord marvels at His servant when he says, “My Lord, forgive me my sins,” for He knows that none forgives sins but Me.’”

والصواب ما رواه شيبان عن الأجلح عن أبي إسحاق عن علي بن ربيعة
machine translationThe correct version is what Shaybān narrated from al-Ajlaḥ, from Abū Isḥāq, from ʿAlī b. Rabīʿah.
in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 2703 - Abū Ḥatim al-Rāzī
حدثني أبو زياد القطان عن يحيى بن سعيد قال كنت أعجب من حديث علي بن ربيعة كنت ردف علي لأن علي بن ربيعة كان حدثا في عهد علي ومثله أنكرت أن يكون ردف علي حتى حدثنا سفيان عن أبي إسحاق عن علي بن ربيعة قلت لسفيان سمعه أبو إسحاق من علي بن ربيعة فقال سألت أبا إسحاق عنه فقال حدثني رجل عن علي بن ربيعة
machine translationAbū Ziyād al-Qaṭṭān narrated to me from Yaḥyā b. Saʿīd, who said: I used to be amazed at the hadith of ʿAlī b. Rabīʿah, "I was riding behind ʿAlī", because ʿAlī b. Rabīʿah was a youth in the time of ʿAlī, and I denied that someone like him could have been riding behind ʿAlī, until Sufyān narrated to us from Abū Isḥāq, from ʿAlī b. Rabīʿah. I said to Sufyān: Did Abū Isḥāq hear it from ʿAlī b. Rabīʿah? He said: I asked Abū Isḥāq about it, and he said: A man narrated it to me from ʿAlī b. Rabīʿah.
