Hadith 34

(The book) ‘Al Taraaif’ – Abu Bakr Bin Mardawayh, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Al Tameemi, from Al Munzir Bin Muhammad Bin Al Munzir, from his father, from his uncle Al-Husayn Bin Saeed Bin Abu Al Jahm, from his father, from Aban Bin Taghlib, from Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Al Munkadir, ‘From Umm Salama-ra, wife of the Prophet-saww, she-ra said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Allah-azwj Chose a Prophet-as from every community, and Chose a successor-as to be for every Prophet-as. So, I-saww am the Prophet-saww of this community and Ali-asws is my-saww successor-asws in my-saww family, and People-asws of my-saww Household, and my-saww community from after me-saww. So, this is what I-ra have testified from Ali-asws. Now, O father, so either revile him-asws or leave him-asws’. Her-ra father went to whisper at night and day, ‘O Allah-azwj! Forgive for me what I was ignorant of from the matter of Ali-asws. I am hereby a friend of a friend of Ali-asws and an enemy of an enemy of Ali-asws, and the slave is repenting with sincere repentance’, and he went on during what had remained from his lifespan supplicating to Allah-azwj to Forgive (his sins) for him’’.
