Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 4-2275b
"عَنْ أَبِى الْبَخْتَرِىِ قَالَ: لَمَّا انْهَزمَ أَهْلُ الْجَمَلِ قَالَ عَلِىٌّ: لَا تَطْلُبُنَّ عَبْدًا خَارِجًا مِنَ الْعَسْكَرِ، وَمَا كانَ مِنْ دَابَّةٍ أَوْ سِلَاحٍ فَهُوَ لَكُمْ، وَلَيْسَ لَكُمْ أُمُّ وَلَدٍ، وَالْمَوارِيثُ عَلَى فَرَائِضِ اللهِ، وَأَىُّ امْرَأَةٍ قُتِلَ زَوْجُهَا فَلْتَعْتَدَّ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا، قَالُوا: يَا أَمِيرَ المُؤْمِنِينَ! تَحِلُّ لَنَا دِمَاؤُهُمْ وَلَا تَحِلُّ لَنَا نِسَاؤُهُمْ، فَقَالَ كَذَلِكَ السَّيرةُ فِى أهْلِ الْقِبلَةِ فَخَاصَمُوه، قَالَ: فَهَاتُوا سِهَامَكُمْ واقْرعُوا عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَهِى رَأسُ الأَمْرِ وَقَائِدُهُمْ، قَالَ: فَفَرقُوا واسْتَغْفَرُوا الله فَخَصَمَهُمْ علىٌّ".

"From Abu al-Bakhtari, he said: When the people of the Camel were routed, 'Ali said: Do not pursue any slave who has left the army. Whatever beast or weapon there is belongs to you. There is no umm walad for you, and the inheritances are according to the fara'id of Allah. Any woman whose husband has been killed shall observe 'iddah for four months and ten days. They said: O Commander of the Faithful! Their blood is lawful for us, but their women are not lawful for us? He said: That is the sunnah concerning the people of the Qiblah. They disputed with him. He said: Bring your arrows and draw lots over 'A'ishah, for she is the head of the affair and its leader. He said: So they dispersed and sought forgiveness from Allah, and 'Ali overcame them in argument."
