وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ شَقِيقِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ، ثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ عُرْفُطَةَ، قَالَ:
أَتَيْتُ سَعْدَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ ؓ بِالْمَدِينَةِ، فَقَالَ: ذُكِرَ لِي أَنَّكُمْ تَسُبُّونَ عَلِيًّا ؓ ؟ قَالَ: قَدْ فَعَلْنَا. قَالَ: فَلَعَلَّكَ قَدْ سَبَبْتَهُ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَعَاذَ اللهِ. قَالَ: لَا تَسُبَّهُ، فَلَوْ وُضِعَ الْمِنْشَارُ عَلَى مَفْرِقِي عَلَى أَنْ أَسُبَّ عَلِيًّا ؓ مَا سَبَبْتُهُ أَبَدًا بَعْدَ مَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَا سَمِعْتُ

✧ I came to Sa'd b. Malik ؓ in Madinah, and he said, "It has been mentioned to me that you all revile Ali ؓ?" He said, "We have done so." He said, "Perhaps you have reviled him?" I said, "Allah forbid." He said, "Do not revile him, for if a saw were placed on the parting of my hair on condition that I revile Ali ؓ, I would never revile him after hearing from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ what I heard."
