"عن ابن عباس قال: قال عمر بن الخطاب: كُفُّوا عن ذكر على ابن أَبى طالب؛ فإنِى سمعتُ رسول اللَّه ﷺ يقول: في علىٍّ ثلاثُ خصالٍ لأن يكون لى واحدةٌ منهن أحبُّ إلى مما طلعت عليه الشَّمْسُ: كُنْتُ أنا وأَبو بكر وأَبو عبيدة بن الجراح وَنَفرٌ من أصحاب رسول اللَّه ﷺ والنبى ﷺ متكئ على عَلِىِّ بن أَبى طالب حتى ضَرَبَ بيَدِهِ على منكبِه ثم قالَ: أَنْتَ يا علِىُّ! أول المؤمنين إيمانا، وأولهم إسلاما! ثم قال: أَنْتَ مِنِّى بمنزلة هارون من موسى، وكذب على من زعم أنه يحبنى ويبغضك".

"It is narrated from Ibn 'Abbas who said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab said: Refrain from speaking about 'Ali ibn Abi Talib, for I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Concerning 'Ali there are three qualities, and if one of them were mine, it would be dearer to me than what the sun rises upon: I was with Abu Bakr and Abu 'Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah and a group of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and the Prophet ﷺ was leaning on 'Ali ibn Abi Talib until he struck his hand on his shoulder and said: You, O 'Ali! are the first of the believers in faith, and the first of them in Islam!' Then he said: 'You are to me in the position of Harun to Musa, and whoever claims that he loves me and hates you is a liar.'"
