أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَفَّانُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ أَبِي صَادِقٍ عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ نَاجِدٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ «§يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ لِمَ وَرِثْتَ ابْنَ عَمِّكَ دُونَ عَمِّكَ؟» قَالَ
جَمَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَوْ قَالَ دَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ فَصَنَعَ لَهُمْ مُدًّا مِنْ طَعَامٍ قَالَ «فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا وَبَقِيَ الطَّعَامُ كَمَا هُوَ كَأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُمَسَّ ثُمَّ دَعَا بِغُمَرٍ فَشَرِبُوا حَتَّى رَوَوْا وَبَقِيَ الشَّرَابُ كَأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُمَسَّ أَوْ لَمْ يُشْرَبْ» فَقَالَ يَا بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ «إِنِّي بُعِثْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ بِخَاصَّةٍ وَإِلَى النَّاسِ بِعَامَّةٍ وَقَدْ رَأَيْتُمْ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ مَا قَدْ رَأَيْتُمْ فَأَيُّكُمْ يُبَايِعُنِي عَلَى أَنْ يَكُونَ أَخِي وَصَاحِبِي وَوَارِثِي؟» فَلَمْ يَقُمْ إِلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ فَقُمْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَكُنْتُ أَصْغَرَ الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ «اجْلِسْ» ثُمَّ قَالَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ كُلُّ ذَلِكَ أَقُومُ إِلَيْهِ فَيَقُولُ «اجْلِسْ» حَتَّى كَانَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ ضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى يَدِي ثُمَّ قَالَ فَبِذَلِكَ وَرِثْتُ ابْنَ عَمِّي دُونَ عَمِّيَ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gathered, or said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ called, the Banu Abd al-Muttalib, and he made for them a mudd of food. He said, "They ate until they were full, and the food remained as it was, as if it had not been touched. Then he called for a drinking bowl, and they drank until they were quenched, and the drink remained as if it had not been touched or drunk." Then he said, "O Banu Abd al-Muttalib, I have been sent to you specifically and to the people generally, and you have seen from this sign what you have seen. So which of you will pledge allegiance to me on the condition that he be my brother, my companion, and my heir?" No one stood up to him, so I stood up to him, and I was the youngest of the people. He said, "Sit down." Then he said it three times, each time I stood up to him and he said, "Sit down," until on the third time he struck his hand on my hand. Then he said, "Thus I inherited my cousin rather than my uncle."
