مسند علي بن أبي طالب رضي الله عنه

Hadith 3:104

Abu Khaythama narrated to us, Muhammad ibn Ubayd narrated to us, Hashim ibn al-Barid narrated to us, from Husayn ibn Maymun, from Abdullah ibn Abdullah, the judge of Rayy, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Layla, who said: I heard the Commander of the Faithful, Ali, say: I, Fatimah, al-Abbas, and Zayd ibn Harithah gathered. Al-Abbas said: "O Messenger of Allah, my age has increased, my bones have become brittle, and my expenses have become many. If you see fit, O Messenger of Allah, to order for me such and such a number of wasqs of food, then do so." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "I have done so." Fatimah said: "O Messenger of Allah, if you see fit to order for me what you ordered for him, then do so." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "I have done that." Zayd ibn Harithah said: "O Messenger of Allah, you had given me land from which was my livelihood, then you took it back from me. If you see fit to return it to me, then do so." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "I have done that." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, if you see fit to put me in charge of this right which Allah has placed for us in His Book regarding this khums (one-fifth), so that I may distribute it during your lifetime, then no one will dispute it with me after you." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "I have done that." So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) put me in charge of it, and I distributed it during his lifetime. Then Abu Bakr put me in charge of it, and I distributed it during his lifetime. Then Umar put me in charge of it, and I distributed it during his lifetime, until it was the last year of the years of Umar. A large amount of wealth came to him, so he set aside the fifth, then sent for me and said: "O Ali, this is your right, so take it." I said: "O Commander of the Faithful, we have no need of it this year, and the Muslims are in need of it, so return it to them." So Umar returned it that year. Then no one invited me to it after Umar until I stood in this position of mine. Al-Abbas met me and said: "O Ali, you have stripped us today of something that will never be returned to us."

حدثنا أبو خيثمة حدثنا محمد بن عبيد حدثنا هاشم بن البريد عن حسين بن ميمون عن عبد الله بن عبد الله قاضي الري عن عبد الرحمن بن أبي ليلى قال سمعت أمير المؤمنين عليا يقول اجتمعت أنا وفاطمة والعباس وزيد بن حارثة فقال العباس * يا رسول الله كبر سني ورق عظمي وكثرت مؤنتي فإن رأيت يا رسول الله أن تأمر لي بكذا وكذا وسقا من طعام فافعل فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فعلت فقالت فاطمة يا رسول الله إن رأيت أن تأمر لي بما أمرت فافعل فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فعلت ذلك فقال زيد بن حارثة يا رسول الله كنت أعطيتني أرضا كانت معيشتي منها ثم قبضتها مني فإن رأيت أن تردها علي فافعل فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فعلت ذلك فقلت يا رسول الله إن رأيت أن توليني هذا الحق الذي جعل الله لنا في كتابه في هذا الخمس فأقسمه في حياتك فلا ينازعنيه أحد بعدك فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فعلت ذلك فولانيه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقسمته في حياته ثم ولانيه أبو بكر فقسمته في حياته ثم ولانيه عمر فقسمته في حياته حتى كان آخر سنة من سني عمر وإنه أتاه مال كثير فعزل خمسا ثم أرسل فقال يا علي هذا حقكم فخذ فقلت يا أمير المؤمنين بنا العام عنه غنى وبالمسلمين إليه حاجة فاردده إليهم فرده عمر تلك السنة ثم لم يدعني إليه أحد بعد عمر حتى قمت مقامي هذا فلقيني العباس فقال يا علي لقد نزعت منا اليوم شيئا لا يرد علينا أبدا
