Hadith 54

apacity for a way to it; [3: 97]. If the people were to neglect the Hajj, the House (Kabah) would not be committing Kufr by their neglecting it, but the people would be committing Kufr by their neglecting the House, because Allah-azwj has Nominated it as a flag for them. And similar to that, he-saww nominated me-asws as a flag when Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! You-asws are from me-saww at the status of Haroun-as from Musa-as, and you-asws are from me-saww at the status of the Kabah. You-asws will be coming to and you-asws will not be going’. They said, ‘And this is for you-asws by our own arguments’, and they yielded. Some of them returned but four thousand from them remained. They did not return from the ones who had been there. They sat back from him-asws. So, he-asws fought them and killed them’’. [79]
(The book) ‘Qurb Al Asnaad’ – Al Yaqzeeny, from Al Qadah, ‘From Ja’far-asws, from his-asws father-asws: ‘Ali-asws used to undertake the fighting by himself, and he-asws called his-asws son Muhammad Bin Al-Hanafiya on the day of Al-Nahrawan: ‘Advance the flag, O my-asws son! ’ He went ahead. Then he-asws said: ‘Advance the flag, O my-asws son! ’ He went ahead, then stopped. He-asws said to him: ‘Advance, O my-asws son! ’ The youth hesitated. Then Ali-asws came until he-asws took the flag from him and walked with it for as long as Allah-azwj so Desired, then withheld. Then Ali-asws walked in front of him and struck (with the sword) ahead of him’’. [80]
(The book) ‘Al Tawheed’ – Al Daqqaq, from Al Asady, from Al Barmakky, from Ja’far Bin Suleyman Al Ja’fari, from his father, from Abdullah Bin Al Fazl Al Hashimy, from Sa’ad Al Khafaf, from Al Asbagh Bin Nubata who said, ‘When Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws paused at the Kharijites, and preached to them and reminded them and cautioned them of the battle, he-asws said to them: ‘You are not avenging from me-asws except I-asws was the first one to believe in Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww’. They said, ‘You-asws are like that, but you-asws let Abu Musa Al-Ashary judge in the religion of Allah-azwj’. He-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! I-asws did not go for a judgment of a created being, and rather I-asws went for the Judgment of the Quran, and had I-asws not been overcome upon my-asws command, and opposed in my-asws orders, I-asws would not have agreed that the war place down its burdens (terminated) between me-asws and the people of war, by Allah-azwj, until the Word of Allah-azwj would have been higher, and the religion of Allah-azwj was victorious, and even if the ignorant ones and the Kafirs had been averse to it’’.

(The book) ‘Qurb Al Asnaad’ – Haroun, from Ibn Sadaqa, ‘From Ja’far-asws, from his-asws father-asws: ‘Ali-asws used to supplicate against the Kharijites. He-asws was saying in his-asws supplication: ‘O Allah-azwj! Lord-azwj of the Bayt Al-Mamour, and the raised ceiling (sky), and the swelled sea, and the written Book! I-asws ask you-asws for the victory against them, those who have discarded Your-azwj Book behind their backs, and they had divided the community of Ahmad-saww, insolence against You-azwj’’. [82]
