"From 'Amr ibn Khalid ibn Ghallab, who said: I came to Kufah at the time of the Battle of the Camel, and I heard some people of Kufah saying: Indeed, the Commander of the Faithful will distribute their women among us. So I came to al-Ahnaf and said: O uncle, I heard such and such. He said: Come with us to the Commander of the Faithful. We entered upon 'Ali ibn Abi Talib, and he said: My nephew informed me of such and such. He said: Allah forbid, O Ahnaf! Then he said: Who said this? He said: 'Amr ibn Khalid. He said: Ibn Ghallab? He said: Yes. He said: I bear witness that I saw his father before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he mentioned the trials. He said: O Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah to protect me from the trials. He said: O Allah, protect him from the trials, what is apparent of them and what is hidden. It was said about this: The trial of this world was averted by the supplication of Ahmad... so he triumphed among the people, and what Khunsar obtained was not... its outward and its inward together... and his affair was made sound in secret and in public... 'Ali al-Murtada narrated it from Muhammad... and in such a matter perhaps the fragrance may be pleasing."
