"عَنْ عِصْمَة بن مَالِك الخَطمِىِّ قَالَ: قَدِمَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ فَلَقيَهُ علِىٌّ فَقَالَ: مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ قَالَ: جِئتُ أَسْأَلُ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ إِلَى مَنْ نَدْفَعُ صَدَقَةَ أَموَالِنَا إِذَا قَبَضَهُ الله؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ إِلَى أَبِى بَكْرٍ، قَالَ: فَإذَا قُبِضَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَإِلَى مَنْ؟ قَالَ: إِلَى عُمَرَ، قَالَ: فَإِذَا قَبَضَ الله عُمَرَ فَإِلَى مَنْ؟ قَالَ: إِلَى عُثْمَان، قَالَ: فَإِذَا قَبَضَ الله عُثْمَان فَإِلَى مَنْ؟ قَالَ: انْظُرُوا لأَنْفُسِكُم".

"'Ismah ibn Malik al-Khatami said: A man from Khuza'ah came, and 'Ali met him and said, 'What brought you?' He said, 'I came to ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: To whom do we give the zakat of our wealth when Allah takes him?' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'To Abu Bakr.' He said, 'And when Abu Bakr is taken, to whom?' He said, 'To 'Umar.' He said, 'And when Allah takes 'Umar, to whom?' He said, 'To 'Uthman.' He said, 'And when Allah takes 'Uthman, to whom?' He said, 'Look out for yourselves.'"
