أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ وَاللَّفْظُ لِمُحَمَّدٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ طَلْحَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَسْبَاطٌ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ
أَنَّ عَلِيًّا كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي حَيَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ اللهَ يَقُولُ «أَفَإِنْ مَاتَ أَوْ قُتِلَ انْقَلَبْتُمْ عَلَى أَعْقَابِكُمْ وَمَنْ يَنْقَلِبْ وَاللهِ لَا نَنْقَلِبُ عَلَى أَعْقَابِنَا بَعْدَ إِذْ هَدَانَا اللهُ وَاللهِ لَئِنْ مَاتَ أَوْ قُتِلَ لَأُقَاتِلَنَّ عَلَى مَا قَاتَلَ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى مَاتَ وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَخُوهُ وَوَلِيُّهُ وَوَارِثُهُ وَابْنُ عَمِّهِ وَمَنْ أَحَقُّ بِهِ مِنِّي؟»

That ʿAlī used to say during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: "Allah says: «أَفَإِنْ مَاتَ أَوْ قُتِلَ انْقَلَبْتُمْ عَلَى أَعْقَابِكُمْ». By Allah, we will not turn back on our heels after Allah has guided us. By Allah, if he dies or is killed, I will certainly fight for what he fought for until he died. By Allah, I am indeed his brother, his guardian (walī), his heir, and his cousin, and who has a greater right to him than I?"
