وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ سَالِمِ ابْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، قَالَ:

أَتَى أَهْلُ نَجْرَانَ عَلِيًّا ؓ، فَقَالُوا: نَسْأَلُكَ خَطَّكَ بِيَدِكَ، وَشَفَاعَتَكَ بِلِسَانِكَ: أَنْ تَرُدَّنَا، قَالَ: كَانَ عُمَرُ ؓ رَشِيدَ الْأَمْرِ، فَلَوْ طُعِنَ عَلَيْهِ يَوْمًا لَطُعِنَ عَلَيْهِ يَوْمَئِذٍ

✧ The people of Najran came to Ali ؓ and said: "We ask you by your own hand and your intercession with your tongue to return us (to our previous status)." He said: "Umar ؓ was rightly guided in his affairs. If he were criticized one day, he would be criticized on that day (i.e., the day of his stabbing)."
