"عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْد الْمَلك الدِّمَشْقِىِّ، ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِىُّ، عَنْ دَاودَ بْنِ أَبِى هِنْد، عَن الشَّعْبِىِّ قَال: خَرجَ عَلِىُّ بْنُ أَبِى طَالِب يَوْمًا بالْكُوفَةِ فَوقَفَ عَلَى بَابٍ فاسْتَسْقَى مَاءً، فَخَرَجَتْ إليهِ جَارِيةٌ بإبْرِيقٍ وَمِنْدِيل، فَقَال لَهَا: يَا جارِيةُ! لمنْ هذِه الدَّارُ؟ قَالَتْ لِفُلاَنٍ الْقَسْطَالِ، فَقَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: لاَ تَشْربْ مِنْ بِئْرِ قَسْطَالِ، وَلا تَسْتَظِلَّنَّ فِى ظِلِّ عَشَّارٍ".

"On the authority of Sa'id ibn 'Abd al-Malik al-Dimashqi, narrated to us Sufyan al-Thawri, from Dawud ibn Abi Hind, from al-Sha'bi, who said: One day 'Ali ibn Abi Talib went out in Kufa, stopped at a door, and asked for water. A slave girl came out to him with a pitcher and a towel. He said to her: 'O slave girl! Whose house is this?' She said: 'It belongs to so-and-so al-Qastal.' He said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Do not drink from the well of Qastal, and do not seek shade in the shade of a tax collector.'"
