وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنَا أَبُو الْمُعَلَّى الْجَزَرِيُّ، عَنْ مَيْمُونِ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ؓ قَالَ:
إِنَّ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَوْفٍ ؓ قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِ الشُّورَى: هَلْ لَكُمْ أَنْ أَخْتَارَ لَكُمْ وَانْقَضَى مِنْهَا ؟ فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ ؓ: نَعَمْ، أَنَا أَوَّلُ مَنْ رَضِيَ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: أَنْتَ أَمِينٌ فِي أَهْلِ السَّمَاوَاتِ، أَمِينٌ فِي أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ
