حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْوَضِيءِ السُّحَيْمِيِّ، قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ بِالنَّهْرَوَانِ، قَالَ:
" الْتَمِسُوا الْمُخْدَجَ، فَالْتَمَسُوهُ، فَلَمْ يَجِدُوهُ، فَأَتَوْهُ، فَقَالَ: ارْجِعُوا فَالْتَمِسُوهُ، فَوَاللهِ مَا كَذَبْتُ وَلَا كُذِبْتُ، حَتَّى قَالَ ذَلِكَ لِي مِرَارًا، فَرَجَعُوا فَقَالُوا: قَدْ وَجَدْنَاهُ تَحْتَ الْقَتْلَى فِي الطِّينِ، فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ حَبَشِيًّا، لَهُ ثَدْيٌ كَثَدْيِ الْمَرْأَةِ، عَلَيْهِ شُعَيْرَاتٌ كَشُعَيْرَاتِ الَّتِي عَلَى ذَنَبِ الْيَرْبُوعِ، فَسُرَّ بِذَلِكَ عَلِيٌّ ؓ

✧ "Look for the deformed one." So they searched for him but did not find him. They came to him and he said: Go back and look for him, for by God, I have not lied and I have not been lied to, until he said that to me many times. They went back and said: We found him under the slain in the mud. It is as if I were looking at him, an Abyssinian, with a breast like a woman's breast, with small hairs like the small hairs on the tail of a jerboa. 'Ali ؓ was delighted by that.
