قَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ الْحِمَّانِيُّ، ثَنَا حُصَيْنُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ، قَالَ:
حُجُّوا، فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى حَبَشِيٍّ أَصْمَعَ، بِيَدِهِ مِعْوَلٌ يَنْقُضُهَا حَجَرًا حَجَرًا. قُلْنَا لِعَلِيٍّ ؓ: أَبِرَأْيِكَ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، وَالَّذِي فَلَقَ الْحَبَّةَ وَبَرَأَ النَّسَمَةَ، وَلَكِنْ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ نَبِيِّكُمْ ﷺ

✧ Make pilgrimage, for it is as if I am looking at an Ethiopian with a small ear, holding a pickaxe, demolishing it stone by stone. We said to Ali ؓ: Is this your own opinion? He said: No, by the One who split the grain and created the soul, but I heard it from your Prophet ﷺ.

هذا يرويه حصين بن عمر عن الأعمش ولحصين غير هذا من الحديث وعامة أحاديثه معاضيل ينفرد عن كل من يروي عنه
