أَخْبَرَنَا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ دِينَارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي شُرَحْبِيلُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُدْرِكٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُجَىٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ لِي عَلِيٌّ
كَانَتْ لِي مَنْزِلَةٌ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمْ تَكُنْ لأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْخَلاَئِقِ فَكُنْتُ آتِيهِ كُلَّ سَحَرٍ فَأَقُولُ السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ تَنَحْنَحَ انْصَرَفْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِي وَإِلاَّ دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ

"Ali said to me: 'I was so close to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, closer than anyone else. I used to come to him at the end of every night, before dawn, and say: "As-salamu 'alayka ya Nabiyy Allah (Peace be upon you, O Prophet of Allah)." If he cleared his throat I would go back to my family, otherwise I would enter upon him.'"

في إسناده عبد الله بن نجي قال البخاري فيه نظر
machine translationIn its chain is ʿAbdullāh b. Nujayy; al-Bukhārī said of him: "There is something questionable about him (fīhi naẓar)."
in سنن النسائي, p. 1213 - الزيلعى
عبد الله بن نجي فيه مقال
machine translationThere is some criticism (maqāl) of ʿAbdullāh b. Nujayy.
in سنن النسائي, p. 1213 - Abū Bakr Aḥmad b. al-Ḥusayn al-Bayhaqī
هذا مختلف في إسناده ومتنه قيل سبح وقيل تنحنح قال ومداره على عبد الله بن نجي قلت واختلف عليه فقيل عنه عن علي وقيل عن أبيه عن علي
machine translationThis is disputed in its chain and its text: it is said that he said "Subḥān Allāh", and it is said that he cleared his throat. He said: its basis rests on ʿAbdullāh b. Nujayy. I say: there is disagreement about him; it is said that he narrated from ʿAlī, and it is said that he narrated from his father, from ʿAlī.
