Hadith 126

(The book) ‘Dawaat’ of Al Rawandy –
‘It was said to Amir Al-Momineen-asws, ‘What is your-asws affair being in the vicinity of the graveyard? ’ He-asws said: ‘I-asws find them to be sincere neighbours. They refrain from evil deeds and are reminding of the Hereafter’. And Zayn Al-Abideen-asws said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws was not afflicted with any difficulty except he-asws prayed Salat during that day and gave in charity to sixty poor ones and Fasted for three days’’. [65]
It is reported by Qays Bin Al Rabie, from Yahya Bin Haby Al Murady, from a man from his people call Ziyad Bin so and so who said, ‘We were in a house with Ali-asws, us and his-asws Shias and his-asws special ones. He-asws turned towards us and did not deny anyone of us. He-asws said: ‘These people will be prevailing upon you all. They will cut off your hands and will poke your eyes out’. A man from us said, ‘And will you-asws be alive, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws? ’
He-asws said: ‘Allah-azwj will Shelter me-asws from that’. He-asws turned and there was someone crying. He-asws said to him: ‘O son of the ignorance! Are you intending along with the pleasures of the world, ranks of the Hereafter? But rather, Allah-azwj has Promised the patient ones’’. [66]
And it is reported by Zurara Bin Ayn, from his father, ‘From Abu Ja’far Muhammad-asws Bin Ali-asws having said: ‘It was so that whenever Ali-asws prayed Al-Fajr Salat, did not cease to (pray) follow-ups up to the emergence of the sun. When the sun emerged, the poor and the needy and others from the people would gather to him-asws, and he-asws would teach them the jurisprudence and the Quran, and there used to be a (particular) time he-asws would be standing from that gathering of his-asws. One day he-asws stood up and passed a man, and he pelted him-asws with an obscene word’. He (the narrator) said, ‘And Muhammad-asws Bin Ali-asws did not name him’. So, he-asws returned upon his-asws very road until he-asws ascended and ordered, and the congregational Salat was called for. He-asws praised Allah-azwj and extolled upon Him-azwj, then said: ‘O you people! There isn’t anything more Beloved to Allah-azwj, nor more beneficial generally than forbearance of a leader and his understanding, and there is nothing more hateful to Allah-azwj nor more harmful generally than ignorance of a leader than his weak understanding. Indeed! And surely, one who does not happen to have a preaching from himself, would not happen to have a protector from Allah-azwj. Indeed! And one who is fair from himself Allah-azwj will not Increase him except in honour. Indeed! And the humiliation on obedience of Allah-azwj draws closer to Allah-azwj than the honours received in His-azwj disobedience’. Then he-asws said: ‘Where is the speaker (who spoke) just now? ’ He was not able to deny. He said, ‘Here I am, that one, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! ’ He-asws said: ‘As for I-asws, if I-asws so desired, I-asws could have said it (as well)’. He said, ‘Or you-asws can pardon and excuse, for you-asws rightful of that’. He-asws said: ‘I-asws have pardoned and excused’. It was said to Muhammad-asws Bin Ali-asws, ‘What
