أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بُكَيْرُ بْنُ مِسْمَارٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَامِرَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ يَقُولُ
قَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ لِسَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ «§مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَسُبَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ؟» قَالَ لَا أَسُبُّهُ مَا ذَكَرْتُ ثَلَاثًا قَالَهُنَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَأَنْ تَكُونَ لِي قَالَ «وَاحِدَةٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ حُمْرِ النَّعَمِ لَا أَسُبُّهُ مَا ذَكَرْتُ حِينَ نَزَلَ عَلَيْهِ الْوَحْيُ فَأَخَذَ عَلِيًّا وَابْنَيْهِ وَفَاطِمَةَ فَأَدْخَلَهُمْ تَحْتَ ثَوْبِهِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «رَبِّ هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلِي وَأَهْلُ بَيْتِي» وَلَا أَسُبُّهُ حِينَ خَلَّفَهُ فِي غَزْوَةٍ غَزَاهَا قَالَ «خَلَّفْتَنِي مَعَ الصِّبْيَانِ وَالنِّسَاءِ؟» قَالَ «أَوَ لَا تَرْضَى أَنْ تَكُونَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَا نُبُوَّةَ» وَلَا أَسُبُّهُ مَا ذَكَرْتُ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ حِينَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَأُعْطِيَنَّ هَذِهِ الرَّايَةَ رَجُلًا يُحِبُّ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَيَفْتَحُ اللهُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ» فَتَطَاوَلْنَا فَقَالَ «أَيْنَ عَلِيٌّ؟» فَقَالُوا هُوَ أَرْمَدُ فَقَالَ «ادْعُوهُ فَدَعَوْهُ فَبَصَقَ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَعْطَاهُ الرَّايَةَ فَفَتَحَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاللهِ مَا ذَكَرَهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ بِحَرْفٍ حَتَّى خَرَجَ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ»

✧ Mu'awiyah said to Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas, "What prevented you from reviling 'Ali b. Abi Talib?" He said, "I will not revile him as long as I remember three things that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him. If I had even one of them, it would be dearer to me than red camels. I will not revile him as long as I remember when the revelation descended upon him and he took 'Ali, his two sons, and Fatimah, and gathered them under his garment, then said, 'O Lord, these are my family and my household.' And I will not revile him because when he left him behind in an expedition he went on, he said, 'You are leaving me behind with the children and women?' He said, 'Are you not content that you are to me in the position of Harun to Musa, except that there is no prophethood?' And I will not revile him as long as I remember the day of Khaybar when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I will give this banner to a man who loves Allah and His Messenger, and Allah will grant victory at his hands.' We stretched our necks, and he said, 'Where is 'Ali?' They said, 'He is suffering from eye pain.' He said, 'Call him.' So they called him, and he spat in his eyes and then gave him the banner, and Allah granted victory at his hands. By Allah, Mu'awiyah did not mention him with even a letter until he left Madinah."
