أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمِّي قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي حَكِيمُ بْنُ حَكِيمِ بْنِ عَبَّادِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حُسَيْنٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ

دَخَلَ عَلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَعَلَى فَاطِمَةَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَأَيْقَظَنَا لِلصَّلاَةِ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ فَصَلَّى هَوِيًّا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ لَنَا حِسًّا فَرَجَعَ إِلَيْنَا فَأَيْقَظَنَا فَقَالَ قُومَا فَصَلِّيَا قَالَ فَجَلَسْتُ وَأَنَا أَعْرُكُ عَيْنِي وَأَقُولُ إِنَّا وَاللَّهِ مَا نُصَلِّي إِلاَّ مَا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَنَا إِنَّمَا أَنْفُسُنَا بِيَدِ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يَبْعَثَنَا بَعَثَنَا قَالَ فَوَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ وَيَضْرِبُ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ مَا نُصَلِّي إِلاَّ مَا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَنَا { وَكَانَ الإِنْسَانُ أَكْثَرَ شَىْءٍ جَدَلاً }

Hs grandfather Ali bin Abi Talib said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came in to Fatimah and I, one night and woke us up to pray, then he went back to his house and prayed for part of the night, and he did not hear any movement from us. He came back to us and woke us up, and said: 'Get up and pray.' I sat up, rubbing my eyes, and said: 'By Allah, we will only pray that which has decreed for us; our souls are in the hand of Allah (SWT) and if He wants to make us get up, He will make us get up.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned away, striking his hand on his thigh, saying: 'We will only pray that which Allah (SWT) has decreed for us! But man is ever more quarrelsome than anything.'"

    رواه الزهري عن علي بن الحسين واختلف عنه فرواه الليث عن عقيل عن الزهري عن علي بن الحسين عن الحسن بن علي عن علي قال ذلك أبو صالح كاتب الليث وقتيبة بن سعيد وحجين بن المثنى عن الليث ويقال إنه هكذا كان في كتاب الليث فقيل له إن الصواب عن الحسين بن علي فرجع إلي الصواب وكذلك رواه ابن لهيعة عن عقيل عن الزهري على الصواب وكذلك رواه يحيى بن بكير وغير واحد عن الليث وكذلك رواه شعيب بن أبي حمزة وحكيم بن حكيم بن عباد بن حنيف وصالح بن كيسان وإسحاق بن راشد ويونس بن يزيد ومحمد بن أبي عتيق وزيد بن أبي أنيسة ومعمر بن أبان بن حمران عن الزهري عن علي بن الحسين عن أبيه عن علي ورواه معمر عن الزهري عن علي بن الحسين مرسلا وكذلك رواه مسعر عن عتبة بن قيس عن علي بن حسين مرسلا أيضا والصواب ما رواه صالح بن كيسان وحكيم بن حكيم ومن تابعهما عن الزهري عن علي بن الحسين عن أبيه عن علي

    machine translationAl-Zuhrī narrated it from ʿAlī b. al-Ḥusayn, and there is disagreement about it from him. Al-Layth narrated it from ʿUqayl, from al-Zuhrī, from ʿAlī b. al-Ḥusayn, from al-Ḥasan b. ʿAlī, from ʿAlī. This is what Abū Ṣāliḥ, the scribe of al-Layth, said, and Qutaybah b. Saʿīd and Ḥujayn b. al-Muthannā, from al-Layth. It is said that it was like this in the book of al-Layth, then it was said to him that the correct version is from al-Ḥusayn b. ʿAlī, so he returned to the correct version. Likewise Ibn Lahīʿah narrated it from ʿUqayl, from al-Zuhrī, in the correct form. Likewise Yaḥyā b. Bukayr and more than one narrated it from al-Layth. Likewise Shuʿayb b. Abī Ḥamzah, Ḥakīm b. Ḥakīm b. ʿAbbād b. Ḥunayf, Ṣāliḥ b. Kaysān, Isḥāq b. Rāshid, Yūnus b. Yazīd, Muḥammad b. Abī ʿAtīq, Zayd b. Abī Unaysah and Maʿmar b. Abān b. Ḥumrān narrated it from al-Zuhrī, from ʿAlī b. al-Ḥusayn, from his father, from ʿAlī. Maʿmar narrated it from al-Zuhrī, from ʿAlī b. al-Ḥusayn as a mursal report. Likewise Misʿar narrated it from ʿUtbah b. Qays, from ʿAlī b. Ḥusayn, also as a mursal report. The correct version is what Ṣāliḥ b. Kaysān and Ḥakīm b. Ḥakīm and those who followed them narrated from al-Zuhrī, from ʿAlī b. al-Ḥusayn, from his father, from ʿAlī.
